Indeed some need to be changed. Others just get banned. In this case it was the latter.
Thanks for the good work.
When you do it I am the first to thank.

I very rarely had all the problems that I have on here back in the Isotropic days. The interface was faster, people were nicer, the server never bogged down, and there was a mute. It has been running very slow on me at times the past few days.

How do we know you're not still trolling us?

That said, yep, I started the troll account in order to see how much and how good the "**shol* control system" was by faking to be one.Quote from: Fastman on 28 August 2018, 04:30:39 PMI find it hard for both these statements to be true.
My time is precious.

If I would, I would have removed Fastman (aka DominionTroll, TheAnnoyer, ...) from this forum some time ago, and probably Adam along with him. Both of you say something useful from time to time, but in my personal opinion it just doesn't make up for the negativity you produce along with it. I also can't believe that it is an attitude that helps you more then it hurts you in the rest of your life.

I agree that reply by jsh was uncalled for and not helping. Demeaning somebody by 'accusing' them of a perceived younger age is a standard 'bad' rethoric method that shouldn't be used in an argument.

OTOH, if you say that you are "sick of the people here" and have "grown a real hate towards these people", you might elicit a response from "the people here" that is also not just rosy.
I can understand your frustrations with some of the behaviour you described. But if you know you are loosing, then having to wait a few more seconds for the opponent to finish in his way doesn't seem much of a problem, as you can resign (and then blacklist).

Again, I don't want to see anyone leave the game because they see the community generally as broken/toxic. It just happens that my personal experience (which is probably different from those of a non-paying player, and of course also not representative of all paying players) is that the community has the usual outliers, but generally works.

In other words, summer's ending and you have to go back to school?

I think most people would agree there is room for improvement to the reporting system.
But the real question is: Is it worth using limited development time on it?
When the time could be better spent on other features.

I also feel that one of the things that online games have taught us (like Overwatch, cited above) is that if people think there could be immediate consequences for anti-social behaviour they start behaving better in the long run. The blacklist feature has proven itself not to have that deterrent value.
