In this light, a topic on my mind at the moment, I also believe questions such as those of the opening poster can be useful.

Not always, but sometimes such a topic may throw up something new on a particular well-established unit; in this particular case too much is clearly drawn from only one source and a rather broad conclusion (certain units should be removed/added) is reached, but the approach could be interesting.

By all means then, enlighten us on what units should be withdrawn and which should be added. Justification gets you points.

Damn last-minute changes to a post. The line about adding/removing units was referring to what the opening post recommended and that I thought that was a rather extreme conclusion, not what I think should happen in EB.

Sarcasm, I believe your sarcastic remark was also addressed to me.

I regret that my proposal on "what units should be withdrawn and which should be added" in the first post of this tread offended you in such way.

I respect EB team for brilliant mod you've done and constantly perfect.
I understand EB team "paternal" feelings when somebody is criticizing their own creation that cost them dearly.
I wasn't trying to insult EB team or undermine your qualifications.

Best regards,
MiniMe.

I believe it's time to break out the conciliatory cigars, pass the barb womens around, and break out the ancient oakwood kegs :)

No, no. Sarcasm was referring to Geoffrey S not your first post. Don't worry, we are not offended by you asking.

Foot

The thread of misunderstanding. Quite absurd.
