Delafina Posted:

I’m still mystified as to what all the fuss is about.

Some parties believe that spoilers and information ruins the community of a game. Others believe that the first group is wrong, and the snobby Munchkins will be, widely, non-existent. Failing that, said Munchkins will be brushed off.

It boils down to three things:

Party 1: Detailed information about game mechanics can and will make pretentious bumholes that create optimized builds and brag about it, ruining everyone’s social experience.

Party 2: While Party 1 may or may not be right about Munchkins, it will not be the greater majority, and they’ll largely be treated as idiots that can’t play a game.

Both parties: INTERNETS IS SERIOUS BUSINESS

I lick her up afterwards (After her great times session too! Yum!)

eh, i know this argument is over, but i’d like to add that while i don’t think this kind of thing causes lame game communities to arise, it is one of the possible symptoms. despite my misgivings, i’m going to trust the community to keep the pedants to a minority. In the end, a lot is going to ride on the moderators, and i think you’ve done a very noice job of not being an elitist male reproductive organwad so far noob65. Don’t let the haters get you down, and keep going about things as you are right now. what will really kill this game is if the moderators become a seperate isolated group from the normal playerbase.

Just as a warning – Miss Chance % is one of the things we’re still really unsure about. All we know at this point is that higher levels of Defense get missed more often, and that lower-threat forums miss more often. But hopefully, we’ll get it figured out soon! Log in to see images!

you know what, now that i’m here and making seriousposts, i might as well follow with another one concerning my klan. I guess we ticked off a bunch of people by acting like bumholes in a few non-rpg threads, so i’d just like to explain where we’re coming from. we’ve been around in one form or other since back in ‘05, and over the years an unfair draconian moderation team has molded us into a very anti-authority and pessimistic group. Not to say there wasn’t male reproductive organery on both sides of the equation, it’s just the way it is.

We were talking about things last night in IRC and decided that maybe this could be kind of a fresh start, so we’re gonna stop being male reproductive organs in the serious forums. don’t expect us to back off anywhere else though.

Yeah, from my visits today I had around the 30% misses from forum counters, so while it’s certainly not a 100% reliable figure, a good estimate value.

I personally also prefer knowledge about game mechanics in general, so thanks again for enlightening me.

how the **** do you miss posting on a forum? maybe you can do poorly and have little damage but honestly no one should ever be missing. say you post **** and it’s not really well written. you’re still going to **** someone off.

I believe that the idea of a miss chance for forums attacking you is that with your rock-solid shell of self-esteem, some things simply don’t affect you.

A player never misses an attack on a thread.

I would just like to point out that this does not apply for all of tsb. I will be making an effort to keep my trolling strictly to the rpg forums, but I cannot speak on behalf of other members. This isn’t saying everyone but bop and me will stop, I know more than a few members who are willing to do so as well.

Our klan is compromised of individuals, and they make their own decisions.

You’re not going to convince anyone who disagrees with you of your point of view, and they’re not going to convince you of theirs. So continued arguments are nothing more than flaming. If you insist on continuing your arguments, then please take them to the Whiny ****es forum, where they’re more than welcome.

What’s your deal, dude? When did I ever say I wanted to be a mod? Members of a community are supposed to look out for each other and point out errors. It’s amazing that after you state that you’ll stop trolling, you immediately try and start a fight. Gigeth already tried to derail the thread and troll it up, and now when a klanmate of yours starts ****ting in the thread, you give me a hard time for reposting a warning.

Deal with it nanafabulous person. I didn’t start a fight with you, but I won’t back down. Unless I’m breaking a forum rule, then I guess you’ll have to suffer with it.

Because I don’t plan on going anywhere.

And as far as you’re concerned Bruschi, sorry if you’re embarrbumed about getting called out, to the point where you cleverly ‘rewrite’ a quote of mine. That’s truly unique, I’ve never seen anyone on a forum do that before. But when all is said & done, one of us is following the rules and respecting the house, and the other is not. I’ll happily meet you in the other forums where this is allowed, but in here, I choose to respect the rules.

wow acid, do you really think it’s appropriate, right after we said we would make an effort to be better, to be an infuriating minimod? ease up a little

edit: i mean, it comes across like you’re trying to bait us. don’t be like that
