No I'm saying that AS a "nob" you haven't experienced everything that the game has to offer first-hand and therefore can't fully understand what the people here are complaining about. Sure you can read up a bit and take a stab at what w3 and 4 was like (as an example) but you didn't play it so you can't exactly comment on it like it's a straight fact. The main reason why I've never weighed in on the old system vs. curios is because I joined mid w5 when it'd already been changed. Anything that I would have to say would be hear-say and ignorant as fuck. Which is why I'm shaking my head. I seriously doubt in your month of playtime (judging by your join date) you've experienced all of the flaws that have been stated on this forum. Now if you've been playing for a longer period of time and this is a new forum account I apologize but from what I can tell you're new.

Its pretty ignorant to ignore what someone says cus of their join date too.
Besides I never really made any comments to mechanics.

That notsowiseman or whats his name again said what he thought was wrong about the siege system when he in fact had no idea what really was the problem.
bmj came and corrected him.

Please understand that we're neither judging you based on your post count or join date for the most part, rather the quality of your ideas and input. Neither you nor Jester87 have really done yourselves much credit, I'm afraid.

haha whatever lol

If you actually read the discussion youll see Im right.
I made a reply to someone saying that what he said sounded so much like another game and then unwiseman started replying to me saying incorrect stuff about the siege mechanics.
I argued against him because it just sounded too wrong and then later bmj chimed in and proved that he really was wrong.

I never made a single comment about any mechanics rofl.

But Mayco, bmj agreed with warpedwiseman, even expanding on his reasoning. WWM's point was the result of attempting to siege was disproportionate to the work, resources, and time it required to do so. BMJ's point was that not only was it disproportionate but that it was downright impossible.

I've actually been doing my best to keep up with this thread because it does have interesting postulates presented in it but thus far the points you're trying to make have not stood. Also jester87 is annoying but that's neither here nor there.

Those 2 different points are not even nearly similar.
Its an entirely different thing being very hard and impossible.

They're the same point to a different degree. "I don't want to siege because I'll spend 48 hours killing 1 alt." vs. "I don't want to siege because I'll spend 48 hours killing 0 alts." That is the key difference between them.
