Nothing personal about the downvote. I just view the suggestion as a threat to the long term health of this community. I don't see it being good for retention or fun. It's a slippery slope into using that against newbies and casuals. I [b]REALLY[/b] do not think adding that kind of pressure onto other people is going to be good for fun because I've been in that situation. One day I was invited to play big teams with @Alcur. I'm far more casual now days and when I was told to "not play too casually" I was turned off by it. To me, casual means come and enjoy the game. Don't worry about outcome, have your fun but don't be an asshole. If you enjoy doing air but you suck at it, why should you be told not to do it? Why can't you have a turn after someone else? People gotta learn too.

I
just
don't
think
optimizing
for
win
rate
is
fun.
It's
like
being
that
guy
in
factorio
who
goes
around
following
you
making
sure
you're
doing
things
perfectly
optimal.
It's
not
fun
and
you
start
to
question
why
you're
even
there.

To
clarify:
this
does
not
mean
I
believe
in
"do
whatever".
As
always,
it
should
be
a
matter
of
communication
that
occurs
during
pre-game.
I
think
that's
a
better
middle
ground
than
"do
whatever"
or
"only
play
optimally".

@moepmoep
here
just
shouldn't
be
given
the
benefit
of
the
doubt
because
of
their
overall
attitude.
I
once
called
them
out
for
their
behavior
in
a
pvp
future
wars
game
and
I
was
told,
and

the
reply
I
got
for
calling
them
out
for
being

in
a

game.
I
don't
find
their
attitude
fun
or
enjoyable
to
be
around.

People
like
that
are
active
detriments
to
the
enjoyment
of
this
community.
It
isn't
the
"suboptimal
play"
that
should
be
banned,
it's
the
lack
of
responsiveness
to
complaints
and
continuing
to
do
it
knowing
full
well
people
dislike
you
doing
that
which
should
be
banned.
