Why are there so many topics about new ships?
« on: December 13, 2007, 19:19:59 »

So what do you think drives these people that come up with the same poll over and over?

Or, if you are such a person, what the heck is wrong with you?

I'm curious, humor me!  ;D

Well, it goes like this.
You type in "new ships" in 'search' ...
Then a list with topics opens.
I took one with the title: "future vessels" and I post.

If there are more topics than one like this, we need to pick one. I did'nt create a new thread.
Its up to the mods to move such things to the threat where it must be, no?

Why a lot of people post a suggestion-ship ... ?? Because there are topics asking for it, and also because Vstep will add vessels once and a while and ofcourse everybody wants his ideal ship to be in the next version...

Maybe thats why...

Mad_Fred, you've given me such a laugh with that.

Like every bit of good comedy... it has an element of truth in it  :D

heh heh.  yeah it has, hasn't it.  ;D

I left one categorie out though, but I thought that a certain yeast-extract based, savoury food spread was not going to be mentioned again...  so...

Although over-consumption of this product has not been proven to be the cause of alzheimers disease, I will not take any chances and just stick to marmelade.  :P

Sound advice, and a solid basis for the future too ;)

Yeah, I can get used to that too, but I would not mix it ;)

My opinion is, make one more poll of wich kind of ships you would like to see added in the future.

But one big poll, with every kind of ship you could imagine, buth without the kind of ships wich allready are in the game.

And to make that topic sticky in the feature request section.
And if anyone else tryes to open another topic with a poll about this, just remove it.

but the list is verry long.

small sailing yacht
big sailing yacht
small motor yacht
big motor yacht
voith schneider harbor tug
voith schneider escort tug
schottel harbor tug
schottel escort tug
military ship: destroyer
military ship: minesweeper
military ship: aircraft carrier
military ship: supplier
military ship: other
big submarine
small submarine
small ferry
small cruiseship
small containership
heavy lift ship
small crude tanker
chemical tanker
big bulkship
small bulkship
steam tanker
steam bulker
steam freighter
small steam cruiseliner
pipelayer
semi-submersible ship
inland ship
small towboat
big towboat

well, thats all what I can think of by now.
If you could think of something that I missed.
But remember, it may not allready be in the game.

I think thatany threads about futre ships who's makers have obviously ignored the search function should hastily be converted into Marmite threads. 8)
