The 'announcement ' sounds like this is a done deal already, with decisions already made. Why not have a thread like this before decisions are handed down? Why wasn't EQ mentioned on the Super Sunday Poll, if nothing else, before implementing major changes. To me, as someone who started in season 11 (which according to some here means I don't get a voice), this is another example of something that's only a problem for the top 25% of leagues yet the fix applies to the bottom 75% unnecessarily. Wouldn't it be much easier just to have EQ decline like players--the longer you have it the less effective it is! That's actually even realistic (unlike visors that make you jump higher)--shit wears out, it breaks. Make it less effective for level 40 and up players without penalizing or confusing things for younger or newer players. I don't think anyone complains about AEQ in Cap 26 where my first player plays.
PS I read a lot of these things to learn, and this might be the first time I didn't agree with Deathblade on something--he usually seems to 'have the back' of the common player, but here is looks like he's defending this as his personal crusade.. Was it this your idea, Deathblade?
EDIT: Oh, and I also wanted to point out that it makes me wonder, of all the things that could be fixed in the game, why something like this is a priority.
