How would you make RDM more complex?

[Shurrikhan]

Then don't engage me in discussion, if you don't want to discuss it. Seems to me that you can't help but engage people with differing opinions.

Your thread title explicitly asks, "How would you make RDM more complex?" And you get mad when people say they wouldn't.

Doesn't this work both ways? If you enter a thread specifically on making Red Mage MORE complex, why would you then engage in a merely adjacent discussion and complain that it is marginalized as such, let alone by the person who laid out the parameters for the thread's purpose?

Yes, an external voice saying "Personally, I don't want this thread to go anywhere, because it would result in something I'd dislike," is fair, but it's certainly not wholly relevant to the thread's stated purpose.

And if we take the purpose of the thread more broadly, as its ideas being aimed at the improvement of RDM, and that the design path this one focuses on in particular may yield poor results for its general purpose, then perhaps your warrants ought to be directed towards what does or does not provide good RDM gameplay to you and others with similar tastes, rather than muddying the waters with what the devs would or would not prefer to do -- which was already presented as irrelevant.

Of course, now I'm the worst of the bunch, as I'm spending a post commenting on a post on commenting on a post on commenting on a post... (See prior post for on-topic thoughts.)
