Thanks For The Gift, Can I Give It Back?

That's rich coming from a guy that's quick to argue in other people's threads about not liking their suggestions because it doesn't suit his interests

 

In other words:  no, I'll voice my disagreement here by suggesting we need more of the thing you're saying you don't want. I'm on topic, just in disagreement with the original request.

So all this post is, is just my (negative) feedback about yet more ways to get patrol xp on my characters.

As you can see, there is no request in the OP. It was strictly my personal feedback. If you want to post a request like being able to buy super inspirations that grant a full level's worth of patrol xp, then it should be in a suggestion thread. You disagree with my feedback? What a surprise. I'm not making a request in this thread though.

 

Edit: If you had posted something like "I disagree with the OP. I think the change to explores was a great idea. I love it. Thank you, devs.", then that would have fit on this feedback thread. Posting "I want more more ways to get patrol xp like a super inspiration that grants it" is a suggestion. And as this is a feedback thread, you should take that to your suggestion thread. (Of course, you would still be responding to a thread that had been dead for 15 months for an update that was done that long ago. But hey, you want to give your feedback on the change? Go for it. Just don't use my feedback thread as your suggestion thread.)

Sorry not sorry, but you don't get to dictate how others respond to or disagree with you

I'll be sure to remember that next time you're screaming about people derailing threads.

Good luck with that

I like xp and I like gifts. And it's pretty rude to say no I don't want that when someone gives you something.

A gift must be freely accepted to be a gift. If you were to offer someone a fully functional prosthetic as a gift, but they still have all their limbs and they are fully functional, then how is it rude to refuse the "gift"? Now you're getting into philosophy.

 

Edit: A good example? I think in China, temples were being gifted horses as a ritual thing for the gods. (They weren't ritual sacrifices, they were ritual message carriers or some such.) And now the poor priests have to take care of a growing number of horses, but lack the resources and space to do so. Now the "gift" is a burden. Now offering the gift is the rude thing to do.

 

Edit again: Back on patrol xp for example. I don't need or want help leveling. I don't need or want patrol xp. So "gifts" or crap I don't want are rude to get. Except I don't have the ability to refuse in this game. Again though. I'm not asking for it to be reverted. For starters I already know full well it won't be. However, I can give my feedback on the change. And this thread does so.

 

Edit yet again: The saying it is rude to refuse a gift is as much a bullshit statement as the saying the customer is always right. Anyone that works with customers knows how garbage that claim is. It only accepts one side in any situation.

it's not philosophy. It's basic politeness. I knew a kid who gave his mom a robot arm made out of cardboard. She had two arms and the cardboard didn't work anyway but she took it. 

It would have been rude and hurtful to not take that robot arm. As for China Buddha says the generosity is important for enlightenment. So the devs give you these xps which is good. So you should say thank you devs for these wonderful xps and not have a resentful heart and tie this thread to the round of rebirth.

Yeah, no. I can not want something and be upset that I have to have, no matter what banal idiom you choose to cite.

Just stop. Give your feedback. Say how much you like the change, tell me how much you disagree with my opinion and feedback, and stop trying to convince me to change my views on something you know full well I hate given the plethora of evidence that is scattered across these forums.

 

This is a necro'ed thread. Nothing said in this thread is going to change the game. And nothing added to this thread is going to change my mind. Just let the corpse go back in its grave and slumber peacefully instead of trying to argue something that's been dead for over 15 months.

[espectro]

Ok sorry. I like xp. This is a great change that brings hope to many. every time like you wake up an wow it's anew day. 

I hope the necromancer comes back and gives you your Joie de vivre back. also someone suggested maybe a 

fatty insp version of this xp. Would be cool I think.

What why? about the same thing? why?

Because suggestions are not part of this feedback thread.

It's not the same thing. This feedback thread was a statement of personal opinion about a change that had already been applied by the devs, not a request for something to be added or changed. And asking for more ways to get patrol xp is a suggestion/request for something the game does not already have, the super inspirations that grant patrol xp, as opposed to this thread which was all about feedback about something already in the game.

 

6 minutes ago, espectro said:

why?

Because making a suggestion for something new in a feedback thread about something that already exists/was implemented is a derailment of the thread. Especially when done on a thread that has been dead for 15 months before a spambot necro'ed the thread trying to just run off the thread title rather than what the OP said. So if you want to give feedback on the change of explores from xp to patrol xp at an inflated rate as compared to the original regular xp or if you want to give feedback on the OP itself and its negative view of said change, then that post belongs on this feedback thread. Asking for something new does not however.
