Whatever point you had was lost in a sea of insults towards PGI, and will thus be ignored as it should be, right or wrong.

Take the advice I took for a bit there:

Stop. Posting.

Do you think you're garnering more or less support for your whining with stupid sexist comments?

You had advice (sort of) for PGI. I've got some for you.

1. Grow up
2. Remember that this game is still in Beta without any release date
3. Welcome to the 21st Century where sexist comments make you look like a jerk
4. Consider that all your infinite problems with ECM are user error, and that not everyone has the problems with ECM that you seem to. You poor thing, your LRM boat and streak CAT don't work as well as you want them too... :)

He's right about the Match Maker being a flop. The thing does not work. Maybe my skill level is too high and that's why it can't find a match. PGI would benefit from a test server to avoid this kind of thing... and yes, it's still beta but we're paying money for it and I would like to be able to play something that's not broken.

SA was funny between 2003 to 2005, and then for a brief moment when Lowtax was going through all his meltdowns.

You're missing out on all the great analog quality. It's got, it's got a warmth man.

It's not sexist, but the truth. Which is always sexist, or offensive.
That's how the truth works.

If you don't get offended by it, it's usually not true.

The UT2 review remains the funniest three pages on the internet but the SA community seems little more than a small number of very talented and interesting people (admittedly with too much time on their talented and interested hands) being orbited by thousands of entirely talentless people who don't seem to know the difference between being sat on their arses and activism so treat the former as the hallowed latter.

I agree with pretty much the entire OP though so what do I know.

Totally offtopic here, but comparing your location to you quoted issue left me grinning.
Yes, I know, me is childish and has a simple mind but still... made my day.

Professional & Totally Evil NGNG cronie here,

Thanks for adding your voice to the conversation with all those suggestions on how to fix the problem. Want my personal opinion?

PGI tried to do something different and tried to experiment with a new way to change the effects of ECM on the battlefield - did it not work as perfectly as intended? - Yeah, but the fact remains that they are trying to do something about it - they are acknowledging that it is a problem. So this failed? Games obviously doomed, Mechwarrior is finished, right guys... right?

No - what you do in business, as like in everything is you take apart what happened, look it over, go back to the drawing board and try to come up with something else. Will it take some time? Sure, but at least they are trying and playing around with how to try and come up with a counter.

For my own personal suggestion, make it so that ECM only slows the lock time - you can still lock when effected by ECM but maybe it takes two times as long and easier to break lock, at the same time allow NARC to fire / work in ECM fields, this would give NARC a place on the battlefield as well as make it a viable counter to ECM. Thoughts?

Thanks again,
NGNG cronie Cattra Kell

Ps. Thought I would use a meme to end my creative criticisms like OP

Right. It's the truth that women are fickle. I either pity your girlfriend, or I understand why you don't have one.

INB4TL:Totally agree with you.
But I'm surprised you are from Sweden, one the most feminists countries of the world. I heard also that Canada is a feminist territory too.
