Does anyone else feel like this is an important aspect of the mod community?
Why i felt this warrants discussion?
i love jade's "cycles", it is a cool game that should be quick to pick up and play.. no one should be wasting time in the lobby and everyone should have fun ...
However this is not what's happening (eu realm, don't know about others) !
A disconcerting amount of players hosting (anyone can host) are kidnapping other players with their selfish/juvenile/counter productive demeanor/methods..
they are afk for 10 minutes or never answer other players questions/"gogogogogogo"/"what are you waiting for" etc .. which is conducive to loss of players' enthusiasm for this awesome game (not to mention rude in itself and disastrous for getting new players involved).
Let me be clear (sounds like my posts are never understood however hard i try ;) ) :
i do not mean that players should not want to play so and so (12 players in this case).. i mean that they should tell other players why they are waiting.. what they like and why...
Furthermore, bnet "joining method" will always favor the lobbies with the most players already in the lobby (creating a second game will not change a thing unless you ask players to all leave said "blocked" lobby, which is not something i would want to do .. but ...).
So..
players waiting for a fool house will effectively block any other game from happening...
Remembering my own teenage "wtfuuu do i care" attitude, i feel only (loads of) efforts from (an increasing number of..) players interested in countering this will make this situation improve..??
ps: am i the only one to "glhf" at the start of every game?
I suppose people with good mannerisms these days are hard to find. There's not much we can do to change that, so its something we just have to accept :/
