Exactly my point. I oppose both.And I said so many months ago on the other thread. They both distort the intentions of the game. Like sign stealing, which I understand was declared illegal in baseball. Or underinflating a football in american football. Or diving in futbol.this game has no real 'intentions' lol. people are open to doing whatever they want to do on bl (provided it doesn't violate any of the rules/guidlines ofcourse)... if i personally decide that my goal in the game is to achieve the gold fighter badge then so be it, that's up to me. if my intention is to design as many outfits as possible solely to showcase them and not get involved in fights, then so be it!

Now we're talking!If you do no t consider Messi or Maradona among your greatest and DO include Ronaldo and Neymar, I cannot seriously consider you among the football cogniscenti. Ronaldo is famous for his diving. Neymar was not among this past year's finalists for the Ballon D'Or, which Beckham never won. He was a good mid-field player and, of course, gorgeous, but not the greatest, even of his own time. To suggest he is is to place Anna Kournikova among the greatest of all tennis players.
I never heard of Neymar. I know Pele & Ronaldo & Beckham, but those are the only names I know. By the way, I played Soccer because of Pele! :)

I think everyone has a right to their opinions, and it's ok to disagree. Besides, I think Pia has a point. It's just a game, but still, I understood I lost a lot of pleasure for voting not for what I liked, but just to get quicker tokens, and lost a lot of joy because of it.I think it is important to consider how you phrase any opinion though. The bad response wasn't so much for what she said, but for how it was worded. It felt aggressive, or at least I interpreted that way. Disagreement can be a wonderful tool for growth, especially when you discuss the morality of any action. But when you come in pointing fingers at people's faces, you just shut your interlocutor down and kill any chance of conversation.
May I suggest starting another forum topic on the matter to keep this thread on topic? Something like "Problems with fight and debate morality in Bimboland"?Sounds appropriate, much better than to keep this going here. Would it be out of my place to suggest deleting some of the more off-topic posts? People who visit the thread for the first time might have a very bad impression of thisand refrain from getting involved, hahaha.
