Hoo boy, where to start: - weirdly aggressive - weird preconceptions about dom that they agressively fight for - "slave lairs" - "One thing you can kind of do toward this end already is just go be Lightning. They're a huge flight and it's very very rare for them to win because of this, so you really, really don't have to feel bad for not participating. It also has a decent aesthetic I doubt anyone straight-up hates. I really don't see why you can't opt out but for some reason people really hate this suggestion, so... Maybe something to consider. I also think if enough people use Lightning as the go-to for opting out of dom, if that sort of becomes the culture, the cries of the people who want to be Lightning and are actually trying might be the one thing that would make this actually happen." - also there's something funny about them trying to tell Tserin that he doesn't understand dom. Tserin... doesn't understand dom. Tserin "sorry fodder" ice dom manager. That Tserin.
SA I have them blocked by now - don't want that mass of toxicity to touch me - but the trainwreck of them trying to tell two current or former flight dom managers and several other deeply into dom people that they don't know dom is somewhat funny. What is not funny is them arguing that bullying in the name of winning is fine and not realizing that they are arguing for bullying.
They are telling everyone that everyone ELSE doesn't know how dom works, while they themselves think it works on an AVERAGE of exalts per flight, which means those who only exalt one or two dragons is 'dragging' down their flight's average.
When, I am pretty sure that it operates on a weighted ratio. So, ANY dragon exalted helps your flight.
AYRT Average can also be imagined as a ratio of sorts and trying to explain math is always hard, so I'm willing to give them a very, very tiny benefit of doubt at least there. But anything else is just a fucking trainwreck that keeps on happening and I just cannot stop looking
SA They also have outright invited others to report them and I will admit that I specifically unblocked them to report them. I wonder how many others took that bait
Because I literally just waybacked the link to post the same thing lmao. Everyone else is dumb again, anything that isn't directly guaranteed profitable is bad. Never mind that this is how supply and demand work - items that are low effort and low cost get made a lot, driving the cost of the final item down. Eggs and some genes stay profitable because they're high effort/time.
They must have some kind of Personality Thing to be this way, they might be a troll but some people are just aggressively Like That. I would guess they're Like That IRL too, and if they have to suppress it IRL ("consequences" as we like to say) they can let it out 110% online and never suffer for it.
Have they had a pleasant and/or happy thought in their entire life? Do they understand that it's possible to not be negative? https://web.archive.org/web/20220314160913/https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/frd/3115521
In a way I can understand their complaint, getting back to the root of the whole 'this is why gene variants would be nice' thing. Hate frills, don't use frills, easy fix. But they're talking about wishing there was an alternate Aberration tert (although actually, this would be a cool thing for just about any of the maned/tail-tufted/etc breeds) that changed the basic mane color to match the tert color, as opposed to it being tied to the secondary/wings.
I hope a decent amount of aberration terts get added in the future because I feel so limited by only liking 3~ of them :( I LOVE how frills is drawn but the accent colours are such a gamble
AYRT I can 100% get behind a suggestion of 'give aberrations a mane recolour tert'. My issue is that they made an entire post in FRD bitching about frills instead, and this is standard behaviour for them
Ah, gotcha. Yeah, if they're a reflexive negative Nancy that's its own matter. Pitiable really. We all know people like that, and it doesn't seem like a fun way to live.
