A Thought For The Sharks, Hawks, Tanks, Etc. (1 Viewer)

[Clifford]

Just talking out loud on the AC forum topic. I wonder if we couldn't improve that forum by strongly encouraging a standard way to ask questions.Most notably - think for yourself.I know when I get " who should I start" emails, the only way I'm able to sort through them is to ask the guy what he thinks first. If the guy won't take the time to tell me what he sees as the pros and cons of the deal or player, I usually don't reply back. But many times the guy will reply back with a really detailed and well thought out reply. And lots of times, they answer their own question once they think about it.I wonder if we made it known in the forum that if you really want people to answer your questions, give a somewhat detailed breakdown of what you think about your situation.For you guys that help out in the AC, you make an effort to sort of focus on the threads where the guy is thinking for himself like this. Other guys asking questions see pretty soon that the way to get a response in the AC is to let them know what you think first.I may be totally wrong, but I bet you'd see the quality go way up. Nobody likes a needy / clingy / run my team for me so I don't have to think" thread. I think having some sort of format like this might help. What do you think?J

I like it.Also, I'll bite. What's a tank?Alsov1.5 can't we come up with more predatory animals for FF status. Some recommendations:Mastodon: moves slowly but reliably picks up steam throughout the seasonTasmanian Devil: quells leaguemates with sheer ferocityNah, those suck. Just tell me what a tank is.
