Competition ruins many a good community, especially amongst the clan communities. Non-clan players find themselves unable to find games to join, due to clans being afraid of someone spying on them, and clan members find they are limited to playing with only those they know and trust. Thus, is the beginning of the end once more for the MP community.

If a clan is REALLY good, they will be recognized whether they win tournaments or not. All those clans you mentioned Warman are well respected and acknowledged for their good team play. Is it really that important to keep replays from the rest of the community, due to some paranoia about the opposing teams learning something so fantastic that it will make a difference in the next game? The ability to adapt is one of the things that make a good team great, not some sort of tactic or unit selection which can be easily copied/countered. So passing on replays as they happen, would not make any difference to those teams competing in that tournament.

However, the best way to handle this is to make sure that you ask before posting such screens and replays. The mod of that section of the forum should also remove such replays if anyone in the game or clan asks them to. Would that make it more palatable for those fearing to have certain replays posted?


Competition doesn't Ruin this Game El. If you have none, Then how can you have alot of fun on the game then? Just like in Real Life. If you have a Business,say a Computer Business, and you are beating every other Comp Busniess out there. It won't be fun with out any Competition, because you ar forcing people to jsut buy your products, or they go without computers.

Just a Example.


Competition Makes TW fun. You can have fun without it, but it adds into the fun.


Stig, My post was never directed at being angry at a lost. I know it is a game, and I don't need anyone to tell me otherwise Stig. I was just stating the point in a gaming standpoint, not a real life. Winning the World CUp isn't important to me since I don'tl ike soccer anyhow
