You can post what ever you want.

She is the only one that gets to determine who is smart and who is stupid. Which of those opinions are correct. And who is a troll and what is trolling.

What you are doing, fix, is an argumentative fallacy called appealing to authority.

You are saying, other people have said so, so it must be true.

again -> what i write is my opinion. I do not tell people how to act. I do not talk about rules. I just say what I think to be the best solution because by now I found out that they are good solutions.
I also have no problem with critisism but I will not change my opinion or let some people twist around what i write.

Also as I say "this is a game" I agree that this forum is a part of it.
I asked for closing this because I can't close it myself. This is not ment to be here for critism on some people - I was writing that in my first post. But someone started exactly that. How can this be a discussion about this being a game when people start trolling each other?

This is why again I ask for closing this topic as it leads to nowhere.

Which is completely true.

Here is the problem, you are trying to tell everyone how to act. And regardless of what you say. People are going to behave like they are going to behave.

What you want to do is invoke the thought police.

Let us be straight about this. There is no reason to be nice, in this game. If you are mean or nice there is no social pressure one way or the other.

Which means you are doing three things all at the same time

1.) Insulting everyone's intelligence.
2.) Preaching to the choir.
3.) Imposing your idealist system on to a social construct that does not exist.

There is no point in telling everyone to be nice, because there is not social penalty for being mean.

The whole point of hell is to make sure you are punished for what ever you do.

Now you can say, try to be nice and if you mess it up, feel bad and try to make it up. But once again you are running aground on the above list.

So, how about you stop insulting everyone's intelligence, telling people what to do, and complaining that everyone is not playing the game the way YOU want them to play it.

In other words.....

Straight to hell, because once all these trolls start feeding off of each other, theres no stopping it until it reaches critical mass, forcing someone to catch a ban or quit. and is LtCol Kilgore when we need him? Good try on promoting the peace, though leela. this is what's been going on in the middle east for years.

35- To Macadam/Greeley
36- South Shore

You can get the

I have given away more then you have ever made. So do not start with the promoting peace and good will crap.

But here we go again. If they do not agree with you, they have to be trolls. They can not have a difference in opinion and you just can not leave it at that.

No you have to stake where you stand as the moral high ground so you call everything you see what you think it is.

If someone comes in, claiming moral high ground, and then starts to call people names if they disagree with him, what are they called, oh yea, a troll.

You honestly think someone is going to get ban or quit over this? My god, lighten up it is only a game.

And for heaves sake stop trying to save your image.
Help me out here. these are your suggestions for people ingame, to improve their game enjoyment?
