Battleships- a solution

[Eternal]

Although written in many words , put in long texts and covered with nothing but fictionalized points of view , which have never happened and will probably never do , the points stated by the players who , apparently still don't trust their fellow disco members , who have taken the responsibility of leading a faction and showing the new players how things are "supposed" to be done by said faction , are vague and it's almost impossible for them to become true.

You are nitpicking , to say the least. Searching for anything that might go wrong , any small detail that is never going to happen , is brought up and shown as a proof of factions being incompetent.

It is all so very easy to avoid the "skype" unfairness and "buddy" unfairness. The applications will simply be submitted on a special , probably new , place on the forums for everyone to see. Even after that is done , I admit that their might be a chance someone might be unhappy of the faction's ruling , again it's NOT a problem and never has been , admins and mods can interfere and "check" if things are alright , if you want.

Please , you are making faction leaders sound like incompetent idiots , who only want to make things harder for players and deny independents of their "rights". No wonder people are starting to treat some of us with less respect , for no reason what so ever. Many of those casual players , those who Nooblet and Song want to defend to badly , are looking down on factions , on faction leaders , not because they where hurt in any way , but because they simply want to do exactly the opposite of what the faction does.

Factions and faction leaders aren't just born out of nothing , many , many factions have passed the 1 year mark and so far , how many of them have been sanctioned for something done in a OoRP manner , or in an unfair manner? There have probably been no more then 2-3 incidents , as a whole , that's just proof that factions are indeed led by people and people make mistakes , but in reality , those mistakes are so few and so far in between one another , that they hardly count for anything. Although it seems that some people have a hobby of remembering each and everyone of them , bringing them up in topics like this one.

This topic is NOT about factions wanting to bash indies. This topic is about the Battleship and about the fact that developers want to turn them into something more then target practice , into something unique.

Again , change is a good thing , not changing , stalling in one place is what destroys communities.

Oh , one more thing , if people don't care enough to even vote , then they have already made their choice , if they don't vote , then they don't have an opinion.
