One thing I do agree with that someone suggested a ways back...League evolution and storylines should not be "turned on" as part of the default wizard setup. Too many new users seem to find out the hard way about these features when it's too late.

Personally, I think the storylines system is an awesome feature, however the implementation is still in its infancy and the standards of immersion reality can be tuned up quite a bit. As it stands right now, they are great fun for casual leagues, but for a longtime league, where all of the players have been like family to you, the repetiveness and silliness of some entries only serve to remind me that these players are not really my family and I am just playing a stupid game.......
But the system has great potential and I hope that someday I can have it turned on in my main league...... |

2. Telling people to turn something off is not the same as saying it should be gotten rid of. I have never advocated getting rid of storylines. 3. I don't think those questions have ever been answered in one place. I did what you wanted me to do. Will you please answer the questions? They're important and germane to this discussion. Thank you.

Hey, if it is troll crackdown time, why don't you go for the biggest troll of all? I don't even have to give you a name, do I?

How I would fix storylines:
1. For every negative event, there should be a positive event of equal probability and value. 2. Extreme outcomes should be toned down. 3. Ridiculous storylines - star baseball pitcher in his thirties quits to play football? - should be eliminated. 4. Every event involving a technology should not occur until such date as that technology became common - no flat screen TV's in 1971. 5. Every event involving a seasonal factor should occur only within that season - no skiing injuries in July. 6. Any storyline should only occur ONCE in any given league.

No, because that would violate the forum rules. If you have trouble with the reference then that poster isn't a problem for you. But I bet you don't have much doubt.

Trolling is "submit a deliberately provocative posting to an online message board with the aim of inciting an angry response."
I post what I know and what I believe without such intent. My views are not mainstream and people strongly object to those views and post angry and insulting responses and off we go. I don't like it when they do so and I don't like getting angry myself. That's not trolling. That's being in an oppressed minority.

I am frequently desctibed in real life as being relentless. It's my nature.
Mgom is Mgom and you are you and I am me. Personalities should be allowed for and left out of discussions.
