Oh cut the bullshit already, will you?

For one, once again, I *did* present reasons why I felt it wouldn't work. Or maybe you just stop reading at the words "won't work" and ignore all the reasons why.

You presented little more than "wouldn't it be cool to be able to rule cities and have control over how people experience the game". And then left it to others to "fill out the idea" and make it workable instead of even trying to put in a hair of effort to that end yourself. That *is* lazy. You're asking people to endorse and stand behind an idea that you're not even willing enough to put more than a whimsical thought into before presenting it.

Amineri's post is *exactly* what your initial post should have been. Well thought out, thorough and shows a degree of effort beyond "gee, it'd be cool if people could be the rulers of a city... Hey, I'm gonna take this completely arbitrary idea to the forums so other people can develop the idea for me!"

Just read Amineri's post and keep it in mind for the next time you want to present an idea.
