As I have told you before you could not be more wrong about this. The very core of this game is building dots and if you look at the history of the game, tactics and teams were created to give dots things to do, dots were not created so that teams had something to do. Improvements and updates in tactics have always been geared around giving dots more things to do, creating opportunities for more specialized dots, balancing out what some dots can or can't do relative to other dots and so on. But everything about this game at its core is dot-centric.
This is an RPG where you level up and add points to improve your characters. Those games are never about the plot primarily. The point is always the fun and reward system of building your character. Heck several of these games (e.g. Champions of Norath) just cycle you back to the beginning when you finish and you go right back through and fight the same enemies, only on a harder difficulty so you can further level up your character and every RPG involves "grinding", where players spend a huge percentage of their time fighting enemies not in any way related to an overriding plot for the sole purpose of improving their character. You may love the ownership aspect and this is fine, but most people are not like you. I would bet that if we did a poll of what part of GLB people like most AT LEAST 75% would say player building.

doesn't the guy remind you of Boltz? I mean seriously it has to be the same guy both of them argue no matter how stupid they look. and even when you try to be nice to them they both say you are attacking them. I just can't get over the resemblance in posting styles on both of them.

I don't understand I don't see where I was arguing anything. I just simply stated that you and Boltz posted almost exactly alike. there is no arguing to it. I am just stating a opinion plain and simple. you just take things to personal and get mad and then go off on a 2year old temper tantrum. don't let things bother you so much everyone is entitled to their opinions. just like your opinion of me is less than flattering but I could careless what you think. so it doesn't bother me at all. I actually rather enjoy it everytime you post how much you hate me.

All this being said... what about the mini games or practice drills for dots?
Heard this mentioned before and not sure if this falls in the category of "dot-centric".
Players have to wait to participate in a game while on a team.
So let's say a dot is not on a team, what can a dot do in such case as it is stated to be a "dot-centric" game at its core?
Thanks and will await for the responses.

you really need to learn to type or spell better because most people can't read gibberish like what you post. and as far as your barrage of insults that crap doesn't bother anyone. it just shows your lack of intellect and maturity. I mean seriously what do you prove by posting your childish insults? You really need to learn how to carry on a discussion without all the childishness. but best of luck to you and your big barrage of insults there kiddo.

a player doesn't have to be without a team. you can always sign with a Dleague team so you can watch your player play in games.
