That’s good. Actually modifying what you are asking for is good. Getting all defensive because people don’t like your original idea…typical, but unfortunate at the same time.
Yeah, but CCP care about how ideas evolve. They don’t pay a lot of attention to this forum (for good reason), but ideas that evolve, that put a valid argument based on evidence, stand more of a chance than other ideas.
We’ve seen logically argued ideas be accepted out of this forum (on the old forums) before.
This threads fits in the other category. Your own butthurt has turned it into a trainwreck, instead of just taking others comments and evolving the idea that more people support.
I don’t personally care one way or the other. The idea as it is still presented, is just a “give me” plea. No reasoning or justification why this idea should be adopted over something else CCP is doing or any other thread in this forum.
The only reason you have given is in post 3 of the thread. I’ll quote it:
So, the plea is simply reasoned because you would like it, and could care less about other effects on the game.
It’s certainly brilliant. No way CCP would think that might be a bit thin on justification, nor why others might see that as a typical selfish request, like many threads here.
You know, there are many of us here that spend considerable time in the forum. We like not just the game, but the whole community and environment around it.
But like other people, we are also busy so we often tend to put as much effort into inferencing from an idea as an OP puts into explaining it.
The first few times you do that and a butthurt OP comes back with “that’s not what I wrote” it’s ok. But then it gets tiring.
So instead, you go ok, I won’t inference anything. It’s not my responsibility to explain or interpret, I’ll just take what an OP writes at face value. After all, if the idea is solid, the explanation should be solid.
Then different OPs come in and get all butthurt, because they post a 2 line OP followed by 1 or 2 sentence follow up. No solid argument based on data, or good logic.
They get progressively more butthurt because people don’t see something written the way they intended.
Well, it’s not my responsibility to interpret or inference from your idea. Been there. Done that and been kicked around for it.
It’s your responsibility to make sure that your idea evaolves to include everything you want to say, clearly so everyone gets it.
Well maybe start with just asking questions, into assuming, twisting, or possibly taking things out of context… you will save yourself and others a lot of that precious time referenced.
