Have default optional rules changed?

[Green]

Hi there,

That was not intended as a threat but a reduction in our support calls.

We combined all the mods that we thought were of sufficient quality and included them in the Gold updates and also included explanatory notes. Based on some of the commentary here it has continued to fuel uncertainties.

I am the last person to silence commentary - otherwise why would I lay out the rationale for the current optional rules? If it adds no value then I will happily allow you to all determine what your own realities are, but I thought giving you my reality, valid or otherwise would be useful.

If you view that I am now threatening and silencing the community I will take that aboard and couch my commentary more sensitively while mourning the loss of yet another Christmas card.

I think some of the support calls may result from players not being aware of the explanatory notes or where they are located. Some reference in the User Manual about the mods would be helpful to those new to the game. This could also explain the history behind the Alt scenarios as new players are sometimes confused as what the Alt scenarios actually represent.

And of course no one is questioning the value of your reality. Ultimately it is the reality that prevails in terms of the game so it is important to all of us. But even re-reading your post and taking into account my over-sensitive nature I get no sense that you were interested in considering any alternative realities. In my view, your post did a very good impersonation of one trying to close down a discussion, if that was not your intention.

But I happily to give you the benefit of the doubt. Just not a card. Sorry.
