Avu wrote:Let's not store anything cause there's the off chance someone will come and destroy it. That is your argument here right? Just checking.
You're making another retard assumption. I felt that attempting to save less than 300 bricks by not building an extra corner post was a poor reason to risk many times that number of bricks.
1. Then you are the only one in the village.
That may be true, I'm OK with that, have you done what you demanded to accept my assertion? Have you taken a poll?
3. I don't see you fighting tooth and nail for those stockpiles but here we are deeming everything should decay (all hail tedium)
The stockpile threads I was involved in didn't have substantial argument against them. They also didn't have someone attacking me personally in them.
Yeah I've seen brodgar it was a joke of a town. No foresight in planning completely abandoned cramped inefficient useless.
Given that the aesthetics of the town have absolutely nothing to do with the fact that I have been involved in large resource construction projects I can only assume that this is another standard Avu move "I don't understand what is being said so I'm going to pick an insult and hammer away at them with it". It lowers my opinion of you when you resort to such tactics.
As for your posts the best I can describe you is a masochist. Most stuff you like increase player tedium or at least I notice all of them because I think gameplay and fun come first realism somewhere far behind.
I can only assume you have not spent any time thinking about anything I've written and are yet again looking for an insult rather than meaningful content.
I'd also like to point out the inherent contradiction in your assertion that I'm lazy and have not done large pieces of work in the game, and your assertion that I like to punish myself by doing large amount of tedious work.
I DO know about how the brick wall project worked
You clearly don't but whatever.
Still insulting, you're snipping part of my paragraph out of context and ignoring any hint of a retraction of your previous OBJECTIVELY WRONG statements.
But clearly, as I only produced a thousand or so bricks and because i only put them in the storage containers, and because i only walked around the half built perimiter a couple of times and because I only constructed one or two segments myself I have zero understanding of how the project worked. I conversed with warri and birg about it as I was contributing, but obviously I mentally blocked out everything they said and have no knowledge in that area at all.
Whats the alternative? Because storing them was NECESSARY. Please enlighten me.
In game alternatives are sub optimal and involve moving the bricks to cupboards in the mine, you would not like this.
Further more I predict you will react to that by raeging out about how stupid an idea that is as opposed to using the brick to build the wall.
An alternative that involves the dev's doing stuff is implementing stockpile constructions and a reasonable decay of those stock piles. I'd imagine bricks would store in a stock pile quite comfortably for more than the 3-6 days we needed to store them for.
Assume that whoever disagrees with you, is as smart as you.
Start with that as your basic assumption. It may be wrong, but it'll help you out in the way you think of things.
Why give the benefit of the doubt? Especially since I am[sic] already proven people talk about stuff they don't fully grasp.
like I said, spend some more time thinking about it, you're not helping them, you're helping yourself, because if you understand them, you will be smarter and they will possibly agree with what you say. You'd be less angry if people agreed with you right?
It's called empathy by some people, other people call it "putting yourself in their position" but basically it's being able to see opinions other than your own.
Oh I see them and get them it doesn't make them less retarded though.
You do not see them. You think you do, but when you try to commit those opinions to type, what comes out is not something those people recognize.
It is statistically unlikely that 99% of people you encounter are mentally deficient, yet you seem to believe they are. I suggest that the problem is not with them.
Do you think this empathy thingie works the other way around?
That's a far more complicated question than you'd think. First of all, yes absolutely Empathy works both ways. In responding to your posts I have to think "wow, this guy is totally raging out, he think's I'm total shit and my ideas are all terrible and going to ruin his game and also that I am a retard" So then I have to think about why you would think that. That bit is really hard and I'm not entirely sure I can explain the process I use but mostly I'm going by your recent digs you've had at me in skype and in game chat, and also your post history of aggressively attacking people who don't agree with you.
My assumption is that you are relatively intelligent as you've worked out how to play the game quite well, however you clearly (to me) have difficulty in processing points of view from external sources, which is what leads me to believe you simply lack empathy and do TRULY believe that I want to ruin your game and enjoy making the game un-fun for myself.
I mean I doubt an idiot can put himself in a smart person shoes and understand his points.
I think an idiot would struggle to do that, but I don't think you're an idiot, just offensive.
A smart person can do that and then dismiss them though. I know we live in a society were we're encouraged to act like that everyone is a winner and everyone is right but you see reality doesn't really work that way. Some things are stupid and some aren't.
People can be objectively wrong. I do not challenge that. I have been objectively wrong myself in the past.
Idiots are at a disadvantage when compared to non-idiots in almost every single field. I do not challenge that.
I don't think I'm an idiot, and I don't think you're an idiot. I do however think you lack empathy and you would be better off if you had some, as would everyone who encounters you.
How about we hear what you were thinking then because that is the only viable option for mass storage if you remove the construction signs. And I don't want to hear what would be viable in 2 years because we still have broken seedbags and inventories full of keys and ...
Once again, you are ignoring what I'm saying and trying to construct a scenario where I am supposed to defend a stupid idea that I did not propose. I have not at any point prior to this post given my opinion on the order in which things should be developed, the time which it would take to develop things, or even a solution to the problem which you are so aggressively presenting.
All I have stated, is that having construction signs cluttering up the map which will never be removed without player intervention is a flaw that should be corrected using the decay mechanism that is consistent with the world that has been developed.
That does not mean do it now, that does not mean ensure people can't play the game in the way they want to play it, that does not mean hey dev's go and kick Avu in the mouth and call him a bitch.
You brought up another problem, that is currently being worked around. Do you really think the workaround is the best way to solve that problem? I don't.
You believe the 'lack of a real stockpile' problem is more severe than the 'construction signs are never removed' problem. That's subjective, we disagree. Nothing I can say is going to change your mind on that, and I don't feel that there's anything you can say that will change mine.
The only reason we are still posting at each other is because you seem to feel that because we disagree you must insult me until I stop posting.
Having said that I suppose I don't have any reason to keep posting, so I'm just going to put you on /ignore and let you have the last word on how you win because I'm being childish and ignoring you, well at least other people won't have click through our rants anymore.
