reactionary

as almost everyone recons in their good sense, this thread is useful as long as it's kept civil and harass free. it clears the picture pretty well. let's keep it that way shall we?

How funny is it that the average is almost the same, and just as useful, as the number I pulled out of my butt?

You pull numbers out of your butt?
Wow that must hurt.
:grin:

mostly...around the ears.....;)

Also quite meaningless no matter how you cut it.

As is your comment.

No, the poll is meaningless. My comment is packed with insight.

Next time we will make a thread we will ask you if we can... ok?

I wish you guys would stop quoting him, its defeating my one-entry ignore list.

This is a guy who lives in a sensory-denial capsule. Nothing you say reaches him, nothing he says has any value because he is unwilling to consider the thoughts and opinions of others and, god help him, possibly adjust his position. He's just blindly poking at anything anyone says. He can't help himself.

He fails to understand, or is determined to ignore, that the poll is a community opinion benchmark against which further opinion benchmarks will be made as the patches come out. Its purpose is to measure of our current and future feel for progress of improvements and hopefully capture simply and graphically all the opinions that have been sprayed across the forum in a thousand posts. Such a simplistic wordless approach defeats his trolling and he can't prevent himself from poking at it as that's all he's left with.

Ignore him or at least please don't quote him ;)

If everyone put 90 and 100 I'm pretty sure you'd see the poll very valid.

If you return to furbs first post and read all the words this time, despite him being your favourite hate object, please realize that the poll is setup to be matched against the upcoming poll (maybe a week after next patch) to see where we're heading.

56.3321 is the average view of the forum visitors - probably the customers who care alot of this product despite being a yes/no sayer as so many here want to label eachothers. If the next poll ends up below this Luthier must realize he prioritized the wrong shortages (such as trains or rare ships) and need to read-up on when the customers are expecting.

If the next poll gives higher, well then he knows he's running his team spot on (this is what I think will happen as Luthier has made some hard decisions lately such as the "sound-issue").

This is a very valuable process for Luthier and company to read how well they succeed.

Klem, sorry for the quote but I do find him very entertaining and will not use the ignore function just yet.
