I wrote a summary, I didn't "quote" anyone. I thought you might appreciate it, as apparently you couldn't be bothered to read the thread before posting.
10% is a minority, therefore it doesn't matter? I never said Brody had to change it, I simply pointed out that if - as he claimed - he was trying to help people, then he should bare in mind that his posts came across as derogatory. You should also bare in mind that when this was brought to Brody's attention, it was done by the only other poster in the thread - and Brody's response? "it's really no skin off *your* nose, is it?"
According to the Merriam-Webster online dictionary, the word "underdog" means either "a loser or predicted loser in a struggle or contest" or "a victim of injustice or persecution". Brody stated the definition he wished to use - but then so did I, in my "Loser of the day" post.
However the whole "underdog" thing was just a minor point that I thought any reasonable person would simply correct.
Person B points out that it doesn't currently achieve much, but with refinement could indeed be very useful, hoping that other people will join in and help expand the idea.
Person A ignores person B's criticisms and suggestions and continues with his concept that doesn't really add anything of value.
People C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K and L jump up and down screaming "Person A good! Person B bad!"
You know, I've seen muds where the administrators had a very similar sort of attitude towards feedback. They tend to stagnate very quickly.
