While Frank's opinion could have been stated (much) more diplomatically, calling on him to shoot himself in the face is way over the top. He gets my kudos for not responding in kind. And as for his caliber of play, I should point out that another thread just voted him the most dangerous player on the forum.

Should I point out that those players (no disrespect to them) who voted for him are not vets and 2) many people who are decidedly NOT dangerous players are also voted in that threat?

When you take what I said and change it to your explicit comment, that is name calling. When Huzzurdaddi directs personal insults at Frank Trollman, that is name calling.

As far as assumptions into your personal life or anyone elses, I have not made any. I have only responded to the insults thrown my way.

But I will summarize what your problem with me is. You got a case of the internet red-*** because you and huzur thought you could rip some guy to shreds with personal attacks because he did not like a mod you liked.

Frank Trollman knew when he posted what he thought of the CB mod, that he was insulting the creator, just like you guys stooped to name calling to defend it.

I don't think what Frank done is right because I am sure QM put alot of work into the mod, and people who create mods do not deserve to be insulted.

But what is equally wrong, is calling someone a poopoo face in defense of a mod, its just a mod ffs. Next time maybe the CB fan club can give us reasons as to why the mod is good and should be considered, instead of being a couple of E-thugs.

Pot. Kettle. Black.

I have pointed out many fronts in his argument that was flawed. And I find your vaunted claims to "diffuse the thread" pretty laughable since it was only till you started posting that the topic got derailed so much. If you have anything actually noteworthy of a clue left to post that isn't an obvious attempt to troll me further then you can take it to the pm. If you actually took the time to read this than maybe you'd actually have a point of debate. In fact, let me toss out a personal attack on you so you actually have something to work with. You seem pretty illiterate since you haven't actually seem to read anything that was written in this thread, including your own posts. Otherwise you won't be babbling so much nonsense.

Reasons why it should be considered:

1. Now the majority of spells can be useful instead of just a small percentage (yes even farstrike ect are decent now)

2. Super-imbalanced nations like helheim/niefelheim has been toned down, while weak nations have gotten a small boost (this is the best part in my opinion).

3. Alot of new tactics/pretenders have become viable that were just bad choices before.

4. Value of scales. Yes no more automatic order 3, misfortune 2 autopicks.

Also, the the anti-cb side has made no valid point (no the argument that the blood fountain, oracle and the lich being some form of uber bless chassis now is just plain wrong).

I have to agree that thread would have better been titled 'Most Dangerous Players to Play In Games On The Forum In The Last Few Months'. It was sad to see not even a mention of reknowned players like Archeo, Zen, Alexti, or Caine.

Kissblade, I have to agree with you. I must be illiterate because I could not find one instance of you explaining why the CB mod is good in this thread beyond just insulting someone else's ability to play Dominions 3.

So you didn't notice the part where I said that cb offers a lot less in leeway of "free scale points" than vanilla? I can't say I'm surprised with this development.

[Foodstamp]

You mean when you said this?

Nice. Perhaps next time you should consider playing with it before commenting on it being a phenomenal "waste of time". Especially considering your completely ignorant remark on the usefulness of those chassis as bless. If you paid any attention to cb mod at all, perhaps you'd like to find the points for these triple blesses you are speaking of. Not to mention Fountain of Blood and master Lich are awful bless chassis. As for anyone talking about master lich being a good rainbow, I'll duel anyone in a best of three series, you pick master lich. Lastly, your manner leaves room for desiring. As for your chariot archers stopping dual blessed HelHerdlings with Sulphur Haze, you were playing noobs. Bye.

I am going to be honest with you. It is very hard for me to get through all the insults to find anything supporting the CB mod in that post.

[KissBlade]

You're right. Looking over it, I pretty much wasn't clear in my intent. CB balances the scales a LOT more than base game. In base game, the only scale you need to take is Order 3, you can fudge most other scales such as sloth 3, death 3, temp scales, drain 2, misfortune 2 from Order 3 alone to fund a triple bless. CB doesn't really allow this. Also, most ideal triple bless pretender chassis in CB (Mother of Rivers, cyclops, etc) are too expensive to actually fund a triple bless without killing your economy. This is what I meant to illustrating by saying "If you paid any attention to cb mod at all, perhaps you'd like to find the points for these triple blesses you are speaking of". As for the rest of the post, it was pretty much refuting his claims of those three pretenders as bless worthy chassis. The only one that really serves the purpose is Oracle, and only VERY VERY nichely.

That post was pretty much insulting his ability to play the game. If you would have responded with the one you just posted instead, it could have probably saved us alot of insults and Huzur jumping on your "kick someone while they are being picked on" bandwagon.
