@Bucky straight up, I am not getting into a back and forth with you. You guys (the loudest ones) are dragging enough people into unneeded debates.
Straight up, then go back and delete post 468. I would rather know what two posters and what two posts you mean by "How you talk to people", cause if you have a legit complaint, then things can be corrected. If you don't help with this, no one has any idea what may need to be corrected.

If you want to drop it fine. But then go delete post 468 and be done with it.

And "dragging people into unneeded debates? I think the debates are needed. EA/Tib does look at these forums, don't they?

The problem is all this constant fighting for zero reason. One group is unhappy, one sees both sides, one loves the changes, and one does not care either way. To create a battle between all these groups because YOU don't agree is WRONG
I agree and I'm sure I've somehow let my emotions cross that line. Its just that the "who cares about all the stuff missing" crowd really gets under my skin you know. I'd like the game to be designed for everyone and it just seems like that crowd doesn't care about others and that bothers me a lot......lol

I am just going to add you to the ignore list because you don't get it and you keep repeating yourself every post.

I've found myself using this feature a lot the last several pages

I'm all in on constructive criticism. I love that there are differing viewpoints. But in the last week, the forum has been flooded with Johnny-come-latelys and/or people who rarely post. They're free to express their opinions as we are, but when people say the same thing over and over, then the IG list is where ya go...

I feel you trust me, I have done my share of "fighting" for change from the EA football franchise. There is a way to do it correctly, and it can be done overboard. Notice Aholbert does not agree with the changes at all, and he makes his point VERY clear. He is also not repeating his self every other posts.

No one I believe is truly happy the things were removed, just some people can live with it is the difference. That does not fault them in any way, just like it does not fault the people who CAN'T live without those features. It just means different people require different things.

This has nothing to do with the business model of EA (Which I think is all kind of jacked up and we the consumers take the short stick), that is a entire different topic. Arguing with people who are not part of that business model is a complete waste of time because nothing changes, nothing is fixed, and wasted typing.

Yea the long time guys here know who likes or dislikes the gameplay or inner workings of EA. We have made this clear with posts throughout the years. But some guys are just overboard right now, literally posting the same thing a different way every single post.

With all that said, I am done with the back and forth in here.

On Topic: I am excited for Madden for the first time in a LONG time.

I usually go on this website everday, all year round, but dont usually comment on the Madden forum untill the new info comes out in the spring. Once the game comes out, im usually buried in the Sliders forum. I have a feeling im on alot of peoples ignore list...HA!
