User talk:Danaris/SMA Guideline Lecture

Honestly, I don't believe the game provides alternatives for these. The game tells you 500cs vs 1000cs, it doesn't tell you X soldiers vs Y monsters. It doesn't, and often, there's no way of knowing the extent of a battle other than by these numbers. Turns? The game only mentions the time on the received message page and on the user page, nowhere else. One can't even be sure if the turn change is sunrise or sunset, as that's only written on those pages too, and for those who aren't close to Germany its trouble to remember which means the start of the day and which doesn't. As for the day, its not even written anywhere, so you can simply drop that idea as no one has any point of reference. I don't think it's alright to expect players to compensate for when the game lacks. For me SMA means no dumb badgers and no "lulz" or anything of the like, but if the player has to take more time to find a way to make his content acceptable than he did to write what he had to say, then that's just not acceptable as people will simply chose not to write anything at all for lack of time or it not being worth the trouble, considerably harming realm interaction (which is key to making the realm fun for anyone not involved in the decision-making). -Chénier 15:08, 14 December 2008 (CET)
