No, not me. I figured I would help him out as it seemed he wanted to learn, so brought him on my TIA team and gave him full access.
While his intentions are good, what he doesn't realize is that his arrogance is rubbing people the wrong way, myself included. He claims to have a lot of online football Sim experience, just not in this game, but thinks this knowledge will allow him to become an elite coordinator and a very short time. What he doesn't realize is that this offends those of us who have spent a couple years playing this game tweaking our offenses/defenses/player builds.
No matter what experience someone has, every game is different and there is no way he or anyone can come in and expect to be an elite coordinator in a matter of weeks, not months or years like the rest of us. To presume so basically insults the rest of us who have achieved that level. However, because of his previous Sim experience, it's possible his learning curve might be quicker than those of us without that experience, but it will still take time, which he claims to have a lot of. Maybe if he studied under my team for a season and then went out to have a successful Pee-Wee season on his own, then maybe he wouldn't get the negative comments directed towards him now, but not after less than 2 weeks.
If he continues these arrogant posts, then he will likely become the next iStoner, and will generally be disliked by most of the Pee-Wee community. However, if he wises up and goes low key for a couple seasons while learning this game and then proves he can run a Pee-Wee team at a high Silver or Gold level, then people will be more accepting of these posts.

Do you realize the arrogance in your own post? You are basically insinuating by your own words that since you spent months and years of time and effort to reach a self proclaimed "elite" level of coordinating that he simply cannot do it as fast if not faster then you did?
I have been playing pee wee for exactly 1 full season and I was knocking at golds door. What do you have to say about my learning curve? Am I arrogant for being able to hang around with the big boys after 1 season? Monetrol did it after two.
I think you need to accept the state of the game for what it is. The level of competition is not what it used to be. When i first started playing before they had the gold league and tournaments competition was much more fierce and there were simply more teams, mind you this is my own personal opinion.
I will agree that in order to become a highly competitive team in gold it does require some more fine tuning but its not rocket science. Its as simple as input vs output. You put in the time and typically it will will show on the field. I put my time in, I studied LE's set-ups joined the pee wee U and hit the ground running. Not to say i stand any real chance against the gold teams but i highly doubt I'd be blown out every game from what I've seen. I played the bears in AA lost by a score, played PWU lost by a few scores.
So don't go pissing on someone else because they have an opinion that doesn't coincide with your own. I don't owe you or anyone else any respect because of what you achieved for however long you've been doing this. I play to have fun and compete against the best, however long it takes to get there is irrelevant.

Just like Mike, learn to read before you make stupid posts like this.
I said it takes people months to years to get to elite PW status, ie Gold level. Since your math skills couldn't comprehend my meaning, let me make it more clear for you...A couple months IS one season, so what I was saying is it takes at least one season to get to that level. Personally, it took me 2 seasons, which is fast, but by no means the fastest. I am sure people have done it and will do it quicker, but I highly doubt anyone could come into this game and achieve that level in under a season, which was the point I was making.
While I do believe that if LW does put in the time and research into learning this game, he could get to that level fast. He's just jumping the gun some as I don't think anyone would consider LW or anyone qualified to post PW guides or offer advice when they have only been in the game for less than 2 weeks, no matter what their previous football Sim experience is. However, unlike iStoner, though a little arrogant, LW is attempting to be respectful in his posts, and that's a big difference.
As for Mike's quick report trigger finger, he already nailed me once when I questioned his sexuality due to all the attention he seems to focus on me, but that was worth the 5 day off-season ban...

That is a far more sufficient explanation for me personally. Although you really come off as a prick with the way you word somethings, but definitely in retrospect my reading comprehension was lacking.

That's cool. I never mean to come off as a prick, but several people have twisted my posts so often that a lot of people first look for the negative meaning in my posts when there isn't one. Trust me, if I wanted to be a prick or arrogant, I wouldn't be that subtle about it...

hmmmm.... its too bad Lobster Weed made his account a few hours after the last time Stoner logged in otherwise people might appreciate the guide. Wasn't Tomlinator a nice fellow for a week or two also? Alltho, Stoner certainly didn't believe in God, whether he made weed or not.
too much fun

Ha! I hadn't noticed the date/time difference between the last iStoner login and the creation of Lobster Weed. I would have to change my opinion and agree they are the same guy. Welcome back iStoner (although it appears you never left). lol
