BuzzerBeater Forums

I have nothing against suggestions that are thought through.
Just think before posting suggestions like:
I think teams should get more money;
Draftees should have one legendary skill;
You should get free seats to your arena every time you click on any advertisement on this site.

I think you get the picture already
Happy hunting.

Having a suggestion is better than having none. If you get discouraged by answering why some ideas are impossible to implement, or end up only looking for the cons (it happens to all of us), it often helps with a little break from the suggestion forums. User suggestions are an important source of inspiration for the BB's and the final product are seldom one users initial layout of an idea, but a collaboration and collection of views after a fun and healthy discussion ;)
I kinda like the process of refining a suggestion, after a spark of an idea has been lit, almost as much as seeing it implemented.

Btw, I see how it could be a replacement for the draft, but as many others have pointed out, the openings for cheating opens wide up and it undermines the challenge of training young players in your team. IMHO.

Light hearted banter is now not allowed? If the naming of 2 countries with large userbases can be narrowed down to certain teams that you think I think are breaking the rules then what does this tell you?!

Now if i said XXX and XXX then I could understand :D

Edit: Censored countries.

I don't follow. Please refrain from putting forward cheating allegations in the forums.

- Cheating accusations. Please use the Cheating Report tool.

taken from Forum Rules: (1592.1)
That should be easy enough to understand, don't you think?

What? Is it me who is accused of cheating now? That's getting ridiculous now... Anyway, thanks Svett Sleik for your reply.

To all: Let me add one last remark concerning the attitude here. I promise I'm out of here after!

I'm not saying this just because it is MY suggestion, but some people need to welcome user suggestions with a more open mind. At the moment I feel like a few forum veterans are acting like a barrier between new ideas and the game. No hard feeling really and I'm not saying this to whine or complain... it doesn't prevent me to sleep at night, don't worry. Still the fact remain that this kind of attitude is bad for BB's improvement. Perhaps a few users who visit this forum see the close mindedness and self righteous attitude of some users and that it prevents them from sharing their ideas... who knows? I for one don't intend to share anything else here in the future. At the moment, this place is too hostile for my taste and I prefer to stay away from this forum and concentrate with the game exclusively. Again, no hard feelings and I'm not saying this to complain, all I'm saying is this forum would benefit from a more friendly and open attitude.

edit : Fixed some weird phrases (sorry, my native language is french)

Maybe there would not answer anyone then.

If you feel the barrier just because someone doesnt share your opinion, it is just your subjective feeling, because how would you now what think about that someone else? You cant force people to say only nice things to you, because that would not be productive either.

This is not his point. It is not the part of disagreeing he reacts on, it is the tone/manner it is delivered. And I agree with him. In a lot of threads, new suggestions get slaugthered by a lot of users before it has had the chance to show its potential. Although the suggestion may never reach the game because of various reasons, we should all strive to welcome new users and new ideas, not brush them of like an annoying bee. If that is your most used reaction, consider taking a break, listen to some music, dance, or whatever makes you happy, before returning to the suggestion forum. Or, as a thumb rule, if you see only, or most of the replies going towards any given idea, there is no reason to repeat what others have said (there seldom is within the same thread, unless someone clearly missed it). Lastly: disagreeing should not force people to stop preventing their ideas.

...first one to call me a wuzz gets banned. ;P

Getting slaughetered with your first suggestion helps you make a better one in the future :D
Oh big not at all Wuss Sleik!

bah :(

Look, what Im saying is that if someone come up with idea, should not be oversensitive if gets stumped. On the other side if someone only disagree with every idea or/and only agree and dont think up something in advance, this behaviour is really not necessary, but noone force anyone to argue with everybody (:)).
Im not sure whats going on here in detail, but I just wanted to give my opinion.

Yeah, I think it's time to wrap this thread up.
