Wait... huh? Dude... I get that you *don't like* my suggestion, but play fair.
So, you're allowed interpret something somewhat offline from my original post, yet when someone else suggests something different, I'm not allowed to say "hey, nice idea"? Talk about cake/eat it.

And this:

Given how easy it is to negatively impact the already unstable economy, I'll stay with the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" vote for now.

Beginning of the sentence, you declare that the economy is unstable... yet by the end of same said sentence - "it's not broken".
I hope that was said, with tongue firmly placed in cheek. If so, pure-straight-ether-cane wit. Kudos.

That's not what I said at all. You said "But hey! Can't have it, because it *doesn't serve an actual purpose* (according to some)", so I merely pointed out that his suggestion was different to yours.

Beginning of the sentence, you declare that the economy is unstable... yet by the end of same said sentence - "it's not broken".


The economy is unstable, but the arena system isn't broken. The problem with making changes that affect finances is that it's hard to predict how far it will go. If the increased salary floor and hoarding tax are slowly working, adding arena costs could see the solution become a different problem.

- As I said, "too". Meaning, 'additionally'. I think you're getting a wee bit pedantic now...

- "unstable"/"not broken"... based on information you don't have. Alright.

- "adding arena costs"... err... huh? It doesn't add a single cent to "arena costs" - it's completely voluntary, and (as you've pointed out) not really necessary for a manager.



Hmmmm... I think you've made up your mind on what this suggestion is, regardless of what it actually is. Interesting that two thirds of the vote think it'd be an interesting idea.

Look dude, no beef with you, and this is beginning to get a bit petty - on both our sides. Have a good one.

Mate, I never said anything about you not being able to agree with someone else's suggestion. If I am coming across as pedantic its because you keep misinterpreting what I am saying.


- "adding arena costs"... err... huh? It doesn't add a single cent to "arena costs" - it's completely voluntary, and (as you've pointed out) not really necessary for a manager.

I wasn't referring to your suggestion. I was talking about the suggestion that arenas should start decaying and require everyone to "pay for upkeep". Again, just clearing up your misinterpretation.

Sheesh dude... I am beginning to suspect that you are trolling. I don't know you from stone - and I gave you the benefit of the doubt earlier. You were civil, but that's eroding, huh? Trolling, is that indeed what you're doing? I guess I should ask some I know within the Aussie community...

Anyway... to play along.

Erm... I'd suggest it isn't so much "misinterpretation", as much as what you're saying being incredibly misleading. Whether by intent, or not... isn't really relevant.

I agree with someone on a suggestion... you immediately jump in with:
This is a completely different concept to what you described.

Slightly aggressive... but no matter. Still, definitely a response to the negative, and who gives a flier if the suggestions DIFFERENT to what I suggested? So... ?

Yet again, there's no *misinterpretation*.

You respond to something I've said, and apparently the second half of what you're saying isn't in regards to me? So... it's a wild tangent. 'K. Or at best, a tenuous link to someone else, without actually acknowledging you're changing topic midstream. Again... 'k.

Look... as I said: no beef with you, but you seem intent to cause someone. I get it. I think by now we all get it: you don't like the suggestion. Cool beans, I'll cope. Move along?
