Wow
That was a good read.
I respect all parties involved with this discussion and it is evident that communication is the key.
I have never met or seen Chroma, E&C or Zombocom, which makes my understanding of what is written and then read without tone quite subjective. I took the original post as protectionist, and Chroma advised of his position and intent. I am happy with this. I would recommend phrasing words a little differently nextime ÂÂ
Like the rest of you, I just want to play Epic and have fun doing it. I prefer alternate lists as it allows me personally to study rule sets and develop ideas for change and/or improvement. I actually have alot of fun debating rules changes and ideas with others even when I have to finally admit that my ideas may not work. Sometimes they do however (hoping the juggernauts are the latest that do).
Some of those ideas and responses however come across like a brick through a window ÂÂ

This is the same for others on these lists. I understand this and have to be aware of it. Now that I also understand Chroma to an extent, I am sure that any retort will come from a different (happy) place.
Last thing I would say however (to the in-group who know Jervis and appear to control many of the workings on these lists), requests to hold lists and so forth should be done through PM. That way the AC or the person responsible for an alternate list can then be the one who is the diplomat and tempers the requests that come through.
Cheers...
