(Forgive me for my poor grammar and English writing skills.)
Hey guys,
I know its none of my business but i thought people would like to see the way i do about the situation:
Firstly, when people do something wrong for what ever reason. It doesn't give you the right to combat by being using able to use bomb's or jumps to fix the problem. Will only make the matter worse. (At the same time your just as bad as the original offender).
Second point: (The Twin Peaks jump)
Okay so lets start with the jump itself. Anyone is able to do it, though people say its hard to do it. From my own personal experience i learnt the jump within about 1 min of trying it, took me 3 times to get it. Yes it's not the easiest of jumps but i don't think its that hard, As i'm a average jumper myself.
Here me out:
So in my mind jumping has been in twinking since the start, it was used to get the upper hand on other teams. It was not looked upon as scum but more so a valued skill set to have. Now i'am all for banning some jumps as some can be ridiculous/unreasonable but i don't think with the TP jump. I think getting up to the halfway point of the jump is fine.
If people just tried to master it i'm sure everyone would get up there no problem and at the same time it's not very smart spot to be for a HORDE FC to be.
I saw most people who was watching the EFC, just standing there and not even trying to get to him, just complaining and saying its broken and it kind of upset me how the majority didn't suck it up and try to give it a go. I know a few alliance got it and one got it first time (Saxxon). He did not complain, he just gave it a shot and he got rewarded for it.
People thought mvp was staling on there just to abuse it but from what he said to me he was surrounded by ally and if he did jump he would of died. That's why he waited for the right moment, sounded earnest to me at the time he explained it. (Not trying to intentionally stale games). I give him the benefit of the dought but i also considered the fact it stalls games due to no one not knowing how to get up there to kill him. Which is understandable but people should of given it a shot and he might of died allot sooner.
It frustrated me how people attacked me because people though i was on MPV's side, just to let everyone know. I barley know the guy, he does not have any influence on my decisions what so ever. That goes with anyone.
Final thoughts about jump:
Now i know everyone does not think how i think about the jump, and i also know that so many people did not like it that as it could hurt games. So for the greater good of the bracket, i believe it should be banned to keep the healthy numbers like we have seen over the last few weeks. I also think bootz thinks the same way as i do, hes just looking at the big picture to keep the bracket going.
For jumps in general, guys need to learn how to jump as jumps will be allowed in the twink cup. It's apart of the game and always has been, instead of complaining just try it, might not get it in a day but you will in the end. Take it as a challenge.
For twink cup rules:
As for the rules i would of allowed it because jumping is apart of the game and i think with practice, the majority of the community would be able to do it BUT i decided not at this point of time because horde doesn't have a hut they can jump up to, thus it would be unfair for horde in pugs/premades.
As for blaming shook for abusing one class dime, if you get to know shook he does not do that (And if he did i'd assume it wasn't intentional). He always tries to balance games and in there for the spirit of competition. You see him FC'ing as enhance half the time and he doesn't complain about it. Hes just not that sort of person from my experience.
JCM shouldn't be getting so much heat, i think there was only one guy using bombs. Just let the leaders of JCM know and i'm 100% positive they will deal with it instead of making it a big deal on the forums. Just creates unnecessary drama, negative posts does not help for general TI viewers. We need to think being for the community as a whole to thrive.
All people are usually nice on these thread and i feel people misunderstand others because of writing through text and not speak via voice chat. In the end BOOTZ is the guy trying to keep the rules fair to keep the community happy, don't hate on him. Just discuss in detail what you think and i'm sure he will give you a reasonable answer.
If you see a players breaking the rules. Just let all the leaders know and they will enforce a kick to that person in BG's by letting everyone know to kick the player if the offender keeps breaking the rules. Usually people that breaks rules half the time don't even know, so if you let them know nicely they might be more likely to stop. Instead of saying "YOU FUCKING EXPLOITER YOU SCUM ECT..."
Remember no one is perfect but the people in charge will do the best to help your concerns.
I know you guys might have chip on shoulders against others, in the end none of that shit matters. Just play for fun, that's what all of us are here for.
