This is what I'm talking about.

Completely objective and theoretical post which wasn't meant to be aimed at anyone but rather the system in general turns into some kind of personalized attack.

If you say anything which doesn't follow the feel good agenda you're going to be attacked in a very personal way.

I don't care how you say it.

And who's the one that supposed be to shunned around here? Do you people actually even read these posts before making up your minds?

Heh... I get the point of that post. ;) BUT, sadly, I have to disagree a bit. lol

It is actually more like having a craving for a bag of Doritos. *grin* Ok, so there are a lot of places out there that sell Doritos. They aren't always open tho. Sure, you could go down to that new fangled 24 hour superstore, but you really don't want to cause.. well.. you have your own reasons. Or you know if you go to this other store you will end up in long lines and it will just take forever and you will simply end up frustrated to the point of not even wanting to enjoy your Doritos after you get them (lag). Of course, there is that place down the street, but the cashiers are always sooooooo rude there. Then there is always the little corner market, but they are hardly ever open.

Anyway, my point is.. every single location and host is different. There are places that are nothing more than lag-fests. There are places where the hosts aren't exactly welcoming. There are places we simply enjoy more than others. Everyone has their favorite venues. No, we can't expect there to always be a game available when we want to play. But, it DID change when the calendar change went into effect. Some places gamed the system while others basically said to heck with it and either quit or just holds their games without listing them (so that some of us never hear about them). It is really, really sad that a few that "spam" the system has ruined it for so many of us. I can't understand why LL believed it was a better idea to mess with the calendar and put such a chain of events into place instead of dealing with the abusers.

Now, I ask... who does it hurt if all of the stores carry Doritos as long as they have all of the other munchies also? Just walk past the Dorito display and find your own favorites. *pout*

I too have seen the decline in Tringo games since the event changes. I really don't see why some folks are so concerned about the number of Tringo events listed....it's like an anti-Tringo campaign. Who cares, there are some events I see posted that don't interest me in the least and thus I don't go to them....see how simple that is? If we all had the same interests what a boring place this would be. Oh and just a side note, for those not in the know....Tringo and other 'ingo games are far from just 'gambling' events......they are very social and I have made a number of friends playing Tringo.

Goes to look for a Tringo game woot!!!!

Yeah, weird with all these events you'd expect someone would be running 24/7 tringo.


That would be the Ice Dragon resort. However, like Buster said, their sim was full.
