[Idea/concept] Distress Module

[Drogon_Mace]

then perhaps you should ask for specifics instead of

@Gerard_Amatin

Another Drogon suggestion and another very long post that, after I read it, I still don’t

@Gerard_Amatin

I like building upon a solid foundation. Yours is quicksand.

have an idea what the suggestion is meant to be and what problem it is meant to fix.

yet you say you have said you got details but no further explanations

@Gerard_Amatin

As I read it, we get a lot of details but no overall explanation of the purpose, limits, application…

the suggestion, if I understand correctly seems to be some kind of ADC, but with big repairs instead of resists and it uses stront.

@Gerard_Amatin

I enjoy reading new ideas of others and occasionally building upon it if I can think of an improvement

so take the concept and build upon it.

[Gerard_Amatin]

Alright, I’ll take the concept:
We need a module to make fights last longer

And build upon it:
I do not believe fights should last longer and would suggest not to add such a module.

Done!

(I’m still missing your reason why we should have such a module. And probably disagree with it, but I still do not know your reason and did not want to disagree in advance.)

This is why you present your reasons as part of the suggestion, so that other people can discuss your reasons before you go full into details about a suggestion that maybe doesn’t have a foundation at all.

well up until now you actually haven’t said this.

you could of saved your time for something more productive if you had said this at the start, considering you had clearly grasped the concept.

@Gerard_Amatin

but I still do not know your reason

I specifically said about making fights longer, why would i suggest a 10 minute fuel powered boost to repair modules if the intention isn’t as i stated

“to make fights longer”

I repeatedly asked you to come up with a reason for longer fights.

I could of course have said “I do not want longer fights”, but without knowing your reason for wanting longer fights that would not have been very productive as a statement like that quickly devolves into an unconstructive ‘yes’ ‘no’ ‘yes’ ‘no’ back and forth.

Also, if I had known your reason, I might have agreed with you and changed my opinion! But without reason you won’t convince people.

“to make fights longer”

‘I wish longer fights because otherwise I wouldn’t have asked for a module for longer fights’ is not the kind of reason I was looking for.

Do you wish me to explain why?

Again, please, why do you want to make fights longer?

@Gerard_Amatin

I have not made any suggestion contributions to this topic, except voicing some feedback about how you present your suggestion, as your way to present suggestions (lots of text, lots of irrelevant details, very little body and no further ideas of how to implent it and what the consequences of implenentation would be) make me want to skip reading your suggestions as it is usually feels like a waste of time (even compared to the time I waste reading all sorts of other nonsense on the forums).

I may not have been nice with the feedback, but do with that feedback what you like.

that’s post 8

@Gerard_Amatin

Yes, but do you really need 379 words to describe the concept of ‘New ADC’ without further fleshing it out?

@Gerard_Amatin

Yes, your writing style where you never use capitalization and don’t have any structure in the logic are indeed hard to read through for me.

Sometimes I give it a try, but usually when I see your posts I roll my eyes and close it again. Thought I’d give you that feedback - you might now be aware and be able to improve upon it if you wish to do so.

thats post 10

@Gerard_Amatin

“Module which will help make fights longer” says very little.

Fights longer how? Fights longer why? When? What for?

One could also suggest to add a module to make fights last shorter. Or make ships warp faster. Make stations bigger.

But what is the point? What do you want to accomplish with it and why?

this is post 16, to which i responded with my quotes

so this isn’t really you repeatedly asking me for reasons why i want fights to be longer

@Gerard_Amatin

Again, please, why do you want to make fights longer?

i already answered this

@Drogon_Mace

onger why?
because CCP is looking for ways to increase fights on grid.

@Gerard_Amatin

I could of course have said “I do not want longer fights”, but without knowing your reason for wanting longer fights that would not have been very productive as a statement like that quickly devolves into an unconstructive ‘yes’ ‘no’ ‘yes’ ‘no’ back and forth.

you’re right you could of and should of said that.

-edit-
I’m done with this post
to any admin who see this

Are they? Where did they say so?

@Drogon_Mace

you’re right you could of and should of said that.

Like I said in the part you quoted, it would have resulted in unconstructive back and forth, a bit like we’re doing right now.

(Also it’s “could have and should have”, just so you know.)
