Which means literally nothing. If he's gonna boast about 20 years of playing in the Arena, but has literally nothing to show for it in his own community's Arena forum, then the smart move is to just not even mention it. Literally one of the suggestions I made was that an actual Rulebook be created for the Arena, which he also claimed was "fundamentally not a good idea." And his only reasoning was because 20 years of experience? At that point, yeah, I'm gonna start to question his credibility.

It is very true that I haven't participated in a meaningful manner in RPG's Arena. But trying to invalidate my perspective because of that is really immature and nonsensical. Also, Dias, all I said was essentially that I disagree with you not that I had any constructive counterpoints. This kind of hostility and condescension is only proof of strengthing the perception of Arena as having a toxic sentiment. If you think "talking shit" is an excuse of being antagonistic then I don't think Arena getting [i]better[/i] and becoming more [i]inviting[/i] is going to happen. Invalidating an experienced RPer's thoughts is counterproductive to reforming Arena, not that I particularly care personally.

Also, I will amend my point and stating a clear and concise rulebook would be a good idea if the community as a whole could even agree on the approach we want to take.

Eh. I don't particularly vibe with any of the ideas. I can see the appeal of them (and have seen some of them in process), but fundamentally by my perspective, I don't really think they are good for helping reform [i]RPG's[/i] Arena like so many people want to do here. If you want to be more inviting more competitiveness won't really bring in new interested parties.
