[Tricon]

Instead of bashing/chastizing all "new" players or all "old" players in a thread, I'ld rather PM the one I have a disagreement with, lay down some basic rules of conduct and then continue the discussion in a civil way in a thread of my liking. "New" players have every right to question the ballance of a game unknown to them. "Old" players have every right too inform the "new" players how or if they are mistaken.

The discussions here are the main reason I come to this board. I think everybody has seen forums with much worse behavior.

Reminds me of Axis and Allies. Some think the technological research (superweapons etc.) is unballancing, others say it belongs to the game. Now those who don't like it, play without it. Same can be done in dom2 via modding the VQ [just as an example]. But if you stumble across somebody who wants to play with the rules as they are in the game, you have to either compromise or find a new oponent.

On a side note: happy cinco de mayo (5th may)to all mexicans out there.
