    I think your reading comprehension skills need work.





    it is?





    you really need to work on your reading comprehension skills
    I am not going to get into the ad hominem BS with you. You want to use them, fine, whatever.

    Your whole thread and position is based on the fact that if someone strives to identify issues to a level YOU find unacceptable, they must not be enjoying the game. People can enjoy the game AND have discourse over issues.

    This thread just stinks of the same entitlement you're blasting others for.

    "I dont like "x" about the community". "I will now make a thread to complain about it"

    Doesnt that strike you as a little odd?

    I just dont like when a community tries to censor itself. If someone is trolling or violating the ToS, the Mods here do a great job dealing with them. There is little need for anyone else here to shout down discourse because they don't find value in the discussion.

      You don't like his opinion, then move on.

      Obviously he is not trolling, since you said yourself the mods "do a good job" taking care of it.

      And guess, what... his thread still stands, and valid.

      Sometimes it takes outstanding members of this very community to step up to the plate and put **** into perspective, versus relying on mods to "lay the law". That is what makes a COMMUNITY just that. And CB is, IMO, a valued member, and took that stand.

        I am not saying he is a "troll". I actually enjoy his postings. This time however, he is trolling, just a bit.

        What is the point of the thread? Calling others out? Why?

          Come on man. I am not starting an argument. Its discourse. I have an opinion counter to the Op's.

          Is this thread just a rah rah every one agree with me or else GTFO?

          You do see the complete irony in you telling me "If you dont like the opinion, move on" and how it relates to this whole thread, no?"

            I don't know how many times you've read my original post, but apparently not enough, because you honestly aren't getting the point I was making.

              by the way, I love how you state that you hate how the community tries to censor itself, but yet you're doing just that.

              If you feel I am trolling, report to the mods who you state do a great job and move along. Why the need to try and censor me yourself?

                Funny stuff. I am not trying to censor you. I am disagreeing with you. There is a distinct difference.

                I am done. I do enjoy your posts pretty much all the time, just didnt agree with this thread.

                  It is funny watching someone project one's opinion in false light because they themselves have yet to comprehend what one's opinion actually was.



                  I am done.
                  Good...now maybe this thread can carry on with people who actually get the original opinion of the thread.

                    I see the irony that you are putting words into his mouth, and letting something bother you so much, that you are now becoming more of an irritant that the original intent.

                    There is a fine line between "discourse" and being "that guy". And you are tip toeing that line I feel.

                      I do. I stay out of the negative threads and typically avoid reading most impressions, aside from those of people I respect.

                        I think you hit the nail on the head CB. I have a quick example; The patch came out a few days ago and I have been playing my usual amount of games. I pop on here just to get a few impressions of what was changed , adjusted and whatever. So I go into the patch thread, weed through 50 pages and still have no idea if some of the trouble spots were fixed. all I got was some guys cant save their games... I have OSFM and thirty team control and never looked back...I love this game.

                          agreed. who cares if stl doesn resign pujols in 2018? this is fantasy baseball, not real life. the point is to see how a fantasy simulation world will unfold. not predict real life.
