We whine because we care and want to stay, much better than just quitting in silence.

I guess because it's a beta, and devs ask for feedback, so feedback could be positive but could be whiny.

I think if we listened to the whiners all the time we'd have noone left playing.

This. Be happy, we actually give a shit about the mod. Whining about it is the best proof of love

The reason there is so much whining in crpg is because the devs are not pro game devs by any stretch of the imagination, and as such the game is a diamond in the rough. As such, the devs listen to the whiners, wich makes them whine even more.

I do not whine as an archer because I expect to get mowed down as an archer. If I don't get horribly destroyed, I consider that a win. I consider it a mega win if I have in some small way ASSISTED in the team's killing (i.e. taking out a horse, wounding armored guys, etc.)

Hence, no whining. It's not because of UBER, it's because of a different (team-oriented) mindset.

OK, I should say, very little whining. I will whine a bit if the nerf is so bad I can't help the team at all, because then it starts to feel like salt in the wound.

Edit to add:

I'm a bit confused about the OP in this thread. I was very impressed with the opening discussion, it seemed fair and asked some fair questions. Then as the thread progressed, the OP took the opportunity to whine about archers, with arguments that really showed me that the OP doesn't understand at all what it is like to be a dedicated archer. At least it did prove to me some of the early thoughts about what generates whine are true - that mostly it is about ignorance and/or misunderstanding.

This game is the most frustrating piece of shit ever.  You keep getting killed without you being able to anything. Huge issues get overlooked or accepted. It's the hardest game there is.
