    If someone's play style has a negative impact in a group setting, then it's that group's problem... Not yours. Don't want to melee on RDM? Then don't do it. Simple. If you enjoy a mage-only play style, then continue enjoying it. Nobody is taking that away from you.
    This is why I keep recommending everyone to just ignore the trolls, eventually they'll go away. I entertained each one of them until their arguments broke down to "RDM isn't a DD, your melee is the suckz so the dev's should spend their time on giving ~MY~ job a melee update not yours", then they got added to the ignore list.

    There is some good discussion going on, but you have to sift through the trolls to find it. Cidbahamut and I seem to be on opposite sides of the debate, but I frequently quote him and agree with him(I assume "he") because he does bring good info and honest contributions to the discussion. I don't have to agree 100% with someone to respect them, and I respect Cid.

    Greatgaurdian is another one. GG is a very intelligent and experienced RDM. You have to sort of block out his condescending tone, but there's good info there. GG and I got nose-to-nose a few times, but I definitely respect that player's opinion and read what he has to say. There are other's but I can't remember all the names.

    The trolls who simply kick in the door, shout "hurrdurr u sux gimme buffs lol" get added to the ignore list. Or they just get ignored altogether. I only actually have 2 people on my ignore list, one of which only posted in this forum maybe once or twice.

    If anything, these debates in the RDM forum have at the very least helped me focus on why I want to play the way I do, and help me see what obstacles the game presents, up close and personal. For all the negativity and shouting going on, I want to melee on RDM more than ever.

    I believe it's entirely possible to promote ideas and feedback without resorting to screaming matches, troll-fests, or unnecessary self-aggrandizement with heavy-handed condescension. SE is much more likely to listen to reasonable posts rather than screaming matches. Speak like an adult, if you wish to be treated like one.
