Contextual meaning: Wingmen and Shared Retaliation

..What? "Wingmen and Shared Retaliation" is not sufficient, that doesn't say, for instance: "Hey, let's make this a Guild-exclusive feature". That's why there's a rule that says "Be Thorough in your Suggestion".

The whole reason why there are a lot of forum-specific rules is because otherwise this forum ends up being a giant waste of my time that I end up ignoring (this has happened before).

There are usually several possible ways of solving a given problem; and there are also some problems where the trade-offs are so bad on the "solutions" that it's less painful to slog ahead with the "known problem", because the "cure" is worse than the "disease".

We need people to fully commit in discussion participation to helping figure that out. Otherwise, the signal to noise ratio gets pretty bad, and I bail out.

As for your doctoral thesis, this forum needs a β€˜Tom Symkowski:’ πŸ˜‚ 🏳️

I type about 150wpm. If you think this is a "doctoral thesis", you haven't spent much time reading this forum.

What I wrote is a nuanced post recapping options for a challenging issue that touches on a variety of aspects of gameplay, across a spread of relative user experience, with major long-term ramifications.

I've seen Office Space, but I don't get the related reference here. I'm not jumping to any conclusions that I'm aware of.

I am, however, burning valuable dev-time here to respond to your concerns and try and find something to mitigate your perceived problem.
