Side switch times

See Rule #4

Where is that beating a dead horse emotacon?  Skuzzy:  we need one.


This is a "game" that asks you to think strategical in ACM (for the moment) and longer term (for half a day).

If you cant look at maps and gameplay and look STRATEGICALY ahead at least the few hours the game asks, then you either need to cut back on the caffeine or bennies or go play Slingo.

Back in the day folks could hop sides every 45 minutes and STILL whined and bellyached
 it was way to long.  There is no pleasing some folks.

If 12 hours is too long to wait, then do what  most of the guys in that group do and get a second computer and second account.  You can eyeball the enemy's moves on one PC and go kill them on the other.  Evidently this is not frowned upon by HTC hierarchy because I see it every day.  I guess as long as the extra cash keeps rolling in it's fair game.....lame or not.

Independent of Hoplite's reply, you don't think all the points listed skews their perspective?  The group listed is not typical of the average AH player.  Quite the opposite in fact.  Your idea of stifling fun could well be seen as protection from spiez by the majority.

Wiley.

It could be seen as such, but I have to agree it's not an effective control.  Two or three accounts the 12-hour rule becomes a non-factor....and some go to great lengths to win bases.

As I said before, I don't mind spiez....they are going to happen no matter what and to me are a reflection of the MA "warfare" environment....well...and people who like to gain an advantage at any cost.

So if the 12 hour side switch rule isn't effective at balancing the countries, and it isn't good at controlling spiez, what purpose does it serve?

Nobody cares semp. Move along.

[Bear76]

dude my squad has nothing to do with this.  when I speak, I speak for myself and not for my squad.

and trust me you arent bullying me.  you actually make me laugh.

He wasn't talking about you or your squad. I think you are easily the most defensive person on this board and you take a lot of what is said out of context or as a personal attack. Granted, you have earned some of them.

[BiPoLaR]

Simply put, the 12 hour idea was stupid. Only people I have ever seen cry about spying is those whos suck level it that of elton johns on his honey moon.

[guncrasher]

I cannot really keep posting it just makes me feel like I am bullying semp and wasting my time at the same time, I just thought that was funny I have noticed it in a general sense were you in their squad or something?

I remember when that never happened.

[Bear76]

You can lead a horse to water it seems....


 

I did nothing more than point out a problem I felt the proponents needed to address to get HTC to take it seriously.   I even admitted I'd like to see the change enacted myself.  

I also pointed out that historically some proponents tend to be less than open-minded about opposing points of view.  JUGgler then proceeded to make statements that I will charitably term.....ahhhh.....'incautious' and 'poorly articulated'.  

I simply took his own statements at face value and used them to dispute his claim that his group is not a clique (it in fact meets the criteria quite nicely!).  

His statements seem to also indicate a high sense of self worth and an elitist worldview.  I'd point out this might explain his not being open to other opinions, but I think you get the point...

No personal attacks. No names. No need to resort to crude stratagems to get one's point across....even if it is still completely lost to some.

Quoting yourself? Same here.

Well it has never been 45 minutes in the 12 years I've been here. Where exactly are you getting these facts about "most of the guys in that group" having a second computer and account? Nothing like exaggeration.

Not anymore, but I grant you it's a good point.

A follow-up question:  Do you show mercy to those who say foolish things on 200?
