Aye..s'probably not so great to detail that specifically as a defensive mechanism, as much as things to consider when preparin' your defences. We'll put that in the "keep an eye on the environment" category...zanshin for you, right there.

you gotta a point there...

Dear captian_virk,

I don't want to be mean - but this has to be said.

Stop posting guides. You're stuff is so full of misinformation that it's likely to make players worse off if they follow your advice.

I know you're well-intentioned, but your stuff is wrong. Worse, when experienced people point out your mistakes you argue with them rather than correcting your so-called guides.

I guess this is not as bad as your ballista farming thread, but it's close.

Sincerely,

redwhiteandblue

dear Redwhiteandblue,

with all do respect you are saying my stuff is wrong but if you read the thread i changed it if you have a reason why,
instead of saying just im wrong. and so yes i have let people change wat needs to be changed so i ask that you read the whole thread instead of hurrying to judge. so if you think this stuff is wrong sorry but i have changed many things that i had "misunderstood" according to the people who helped improve the guide.
so basically your telling every1 here that helped there wrong... not me...

so plz go away... * sighs* you know people like you bore me...

First of all; stop double-postin'. It's against the rules and annoyin'.
Secondly; speak proper English...it's against the rules and annoyin'.
Thirdly, he's showin' you rspect by bein' civil about it, you should do the same. Sayin' "with all due respect" doesn't automatically imply respect.

What he's sayin' is that most people who post guides post a thorough, complete guide and then any others who know more, or disagree will comment and some points may be tweaked or edited, accordin' to the given feedback; this is expected.

What you do is post a guide that is completely wrong, and have three dozen people correct you until you change it. Now, as much as that will annoy some folk, you claimin' that you made a guide when it was not only wrong, but thereafter fixed (and essentially made) by everyone else, it's made worse by the fact that you argue and disagree w/ everyone who corrected you...and by the by..they were right...

Makin' guides are for people who know for a fact what's goin' on, not for people who don't know and are happy to have it transformed by negative feedback. redwhite is jus' suggestin', I'm sure, that you wait until you're more experienced in the game mechanics before postin' guides beacause people will and do read these guides and they listen to them..when guides are full of misinformation and bad facts, it winds up punishin' the unsuspectin' player...

If you really wanna help people, wait until you know better, then yu can. If you jus' want to look like a big shot by postin' a lot of guides, I can only hope you're okay knowin' that people can and will get screwed over by bad info.
