If someone disagrees with you they're automatically a moron, a troll, a FTW-obsessed basher with no life, or various other ridiculous generalisations.
No, that's not true at all.
I have no problem with people disagreeing with me if they are not an ass about it and actually make a valid point. You never make any valid points about anything, you just reply with worthless garbage and don't listen to the reply you get.
I don't troll anyone, but your posts are so consistently ludicrous that I can't help but point out the numerous flaws and utter inaccuracies.
PM me if you want to discuss why I disagree with you here, because I don't like you and because I think you are a complete and utter smeg-head - just a reply from you alone is a troll unless it's a clean reply with a valid point (stated above, this is never the case).
You cannot seem to grasp the fact that you are just wasting your time and making yourself look like an even bigger moron than you already are. You don't see me going around the forums searching for everybody I hate just to reply to them with utter BS like you do. Some people have better things to do with their time.

This route does not need a nerf. If the day comes when the server is full of them, full of Robotics Shields and everybody is massing Cyborg Gardeners and there is nothing anybody can do about it, then maybe it will be nerfed.
Twigley probably started this thread because he got owned by the route a few times, well boo-hoo - it doesn't matter, that unit was designed this way, and has been nerfed at LEAST 3 times in the past and doesn't need it anymore. I'm sorry you disagree with me on the topic, and I'm sorry the admin no longer cares about your opinion, but he sure cares about mine because when I have a problem with something I rack up lots of evidence and give it to him.
What have you done, where's your evidence? You don't even play actively, you aren't even playing this route, you've not been hit by the route so what the smeg do you know? You just jumped on the band-wagon giving your useless opinion about a game you cannot even be bothered to play.
Just beacuse someone else is above you in the triangle doesn't mean it needs a nerf, that's just my opinion, I will stick to mine and you can stick to yours.

If you increase the cost of this unit, you can potentially make it so it's more beneficial to just buy Gardeners to send as flak.
Do some simple math if you have time, and come up with what (in your opinion) would be a reasonable value based on stats, blocking figures, and please include an X factor so people are inclined to play this route over any other.
Whilst you are at it, why don't you make a pie chart of all the routes that players use in this game. I'm pretty sure Robotics are one of the smallest slices of the pie.
Robotics has been my favourite route since I started this game, I wish to play it round after round. However, when it's route selection time I always back out because I would be raped in the rear almost every day, I wouldn't even be able to have a shower without being rushed by Harriers or something. The route has so many weaknesses and to me it's just not worth playing as a soloist anymore unless you constantly want to be checking it. One alliance has decided to have 6 Shield players to play with them as their setup, and are willing to accept a stupid amount of Harrier rushes all round, but having 6 players with CG is going to benefit them at the start.
I admire their tactic, and I'm glad to see it's something nobody else thought of. It takes a lot for me to say that about people I probably don't even like - I'm giving an unbiased opinion here, try look at it from all angles to justify what you are saying.
I played them last round and found early in the round they were basically unstoppable. SGT and guru had no chance of stopping them, but later in the round, Vamps, Sorc, Dragon, TL, Apache and TD ate them alive, to the point where it was actually better to mass Gards. They are good against a lot of units, but overall they don't need to be massively nerfed. Maybe a cost boost from 4,200 to 4,500, but that would be as far as I would go.
This topic ended March 2010, we are in October 2011 and Franny decided to bump it.
I could understand if the topic was constantly being bumped with people complaining but I do find it quite strange why NOBODY mentioned a word for around 18 months. Just because some brave players decide to play the route and rape your land with it, it needs a nerf? Talk about sore loser.
