that made the game fell so low
You're saying EC made the game worse and I can't see how that's true. Dis and ad bot as well, and both are always boasting about it and saying that non-botters are scrubs who don't know how to play and don't deserve to live. EC even sold their stuff to you, to ad, and to everyone else. Maybe you mean w7 would've been better and more fun if only you had hq stuff and no one else? Why does it matter that EC had top q stuff if they don't play competitively and also sell those things to everyone neutrally and at a so fucking low price?
It was also EC's botting that allowed xcom to make experiments and develop his client, which is public. Did that make the game fall so low as well? FFS, just compare how many community projects any of your competitive factions did in w7 to how many EC did and tell us EC made the game worse.
The hospital thing isn't totally wrong. Both EC and MC supported random players who needed help, meaning that leaving us unraided would have meant you'd get more noob palis to trash and that fewer people would quit after being killed before even understanding how the game works. It baffles me that so many of you can't draw the logical conclusion that if you kill everyone, there won't be anyone else to kill.
