It's not a trick. I just can't, for the life of me, even begin to conceive of a Hero flag that isn't related to the major elements of the core gameplay of SK.

Geez OA, I come visit the forums and I'm immediately treading water to survive. Take a chill pill and just wait, like Dulrik said in the first page of the thread.

I feel like if you had dat hero flag, we wouldn't even be having this conversation.

Why can't you just let it go?

We would be having this discussion regardless of my having a flag or not. I've already addressed this point in a previous post. Read back to see response.

Maybe you've got your major elements wrong.

What is your proposed solution? Do away with HRO flags because the imms wont tell you the inner workings of the selection process?

Grep, I'm pretty much just going to ignore that implication aside from saying that anyone would be hard-pressed to come up with core elements of SK that didn't include PvE, PvP, and RP.

And no, I'm not advising the complete abolishment of HRO flags. I think it's great that heroes are returning to SK. I just think they should be selected by the players, in-game, and based on a character's accomplishments in the three major arenas of SK's gameplay as they used to be. Change the system of selection if previous methods were deemed unworthy, but continue to base it on actual accomplishments of characters.

I would submit as a core element of SK the ability to be a "team player."

PvE, PvP and RP all require an element of team play to be at their peak. Those who practice such without team support do not perform as well as those who do, and therefore will not score as highly in those arenas. Still valid standards by which to apply scores for HRO.

Can this thread be moved to the more appropriate subforum, GD please. The question has been asked an answered and OA is being thick headed because he doesn't understand something.
