    You literally can't read. Here's my post.

    It has something to do about testing content for yourself and developing your own strategies. If you spoon feed a noob you will make that noob a bad player and do him/her a huge disservice. If a noob simply tries to copy what you do verbatim, boot em - they are a lost cause. Provide video tutorials at MOST, do not carry. Ever.
    Catch the part about providing video tutorials? You have to accept what works for A won't necessarily work for B, but what A does can influence how B handles things.

    I will always advocate that people develop their own play strategies. Unless a coil party has the exact same setup as mine, I will always advise to not do exactly what we do. Rather - I want them to understand why we do what we do. That way, they can develop their own strategy.

    This will always be more effective than what you advocate.

    Also, yes - I do want Coil groups to wipe initially. I want them to understand why their strategy failed and to think about how they should proceed. You have to let newcomers think for themselves. If they aren't willing to do that, I don't want them with our guild tag.

    Catch the part about providing video tutorials? Try again, before I decide to report you for slander. You have to accept what works for A won't necessarily work for B, but what A does can influence how B handles things.

    Lol at reporting someone for slander! Are you going to sue for monetary damages too?
