Yes indeed, HTC will be implementing a side balancing mechanism in 1.11. Given that, why does it continue to be such an emotional issue for some people....they HAVE gotten  what they wanted.

Beeker


Ammo is, of course, a bishop :)

And once more original post wasn't a whine, was supposed to be funny :rolleyes:   I did quite well last night as a rook killing these guys, somehow or another my rank went into the top 100 (even though I wasn't playing for rank this camp) so keep em coming guys, keep em coming :D

It's really getting out of hand. This is getting outrageous.

you are so full of crap ammo

It aint whining. Even ht has decided to add a side balancing mechanism to the main. He sees it as a problem. Turbots not pointing out a typical reset condition.

Here we have another sheltered Bishop telling folks what really is going on.......:rolleyes:

Who are you to given anyone "the benefit of the doudt". Save for folks who care what you think.

I have flown every side in ah and it wasnt until folks started posting threads like these that show number tracking that it really came to light that what was happening was far more then a few days in the bucket or simple resets. I am sure HT and crew did as well.

I like the 3 sided war but when we each get focused on only what happens in our own little section of the game it easy to overlook things that have a huge impact on gameplay and how folks feel about the game. Bringing a thread up that shows the reality of it helps people see it for what it is. Its the players who choose to make ah what it is.

We didnt see you in any of the other recent number threads calling your buddies whiners.

Then again you have also shown yourself a hypocrit in most of your "You are a whiner" whines.

I personally like bish having the most numbers, and having them in large masses.  Most are idiots who are easy to blow away which equals more kills for lazer! :D

Did I call your name out wotan?

Most of us here are pretty bright folks.  Look at each post and see if you can figure out which one is whining and which is not.

Sorry if I angered anyone, I am certainly not angry.  But hey, I am certainly not one to sugarcoat it either.

What recent threads where my buddies needed calling whiners?  I dont get to see every post here, and generally avoid these all together. I see now I probably should have avoided this one as well:D

Some folks have a chest full of "reaction buttons", and its not hard to hit one intentionally or not. Again, I am not saying its you Wotan that fits that description:)

I am not angry either but turbot is good guy and most likely wont tell you to piss off.

I will though.

Turbot is my squaddie and I asked him to move to rook. This was a decision that has had a great impact on my squad. Turbot is not a whiner that spends his time belly aching. He is in the main trying to help where he can.

I used to think the same. That rooks were whining about numbers until a guy in my squad pointed out that this aint just a few days in the bucket. My squad was knight when we spent 7 weeks with low numbers and we took it for what it was.

I think that number balancing could be handled by the player base. The only way I was able understand what was up was by threads like this and by folks pointing it out to me.

There are whines and there are criticisms. I think this post while critical of the nature of the main is a correct one and more an attempt at humor then anything.

Your reaction

"Youl are a whiner"

My reaction

"You are a toejame stirrer"

You can use the search function to find the past threads. Its not surprising that you "missed" those.
