"oh hey, its a farm. my lucky day! ^.^.... crap, its a shard farm.... i already have 6 of every unupped shard. i dont need anymore"
has this happened to you? all too often, players encounter these shard farms. and it almost always ends in disappointment. when i farm, i dont want it to take 20 turns to kill my opponent. if you agree that this is fairly annoying, please post.

and if your on the other side of preferences, please post here (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,10500.0/topicseen.html).
thank you bigbadbanana for so kindly referencing this post in your thread.

ps
that first vote option was a JOKE. not meant to be voted on
my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard and they're like "its better than yours" damn right, its better than yours! i can teach you but i'd have to charge!

Seriously? These shard farms that people seem to complain about... where are they? I farm T50 all the time and they are really far and few between. Shards farms don't annoy me. People complaining about them... well that annoys me. I personally do not make any shard farms unless someone personally requests it of me and i'm "nice" enough to leave them unupped.

More threads like this (like this hasn't already been posted before) the more i want to make an annoying stall deck. But then maybe that is your intention anyway.

I'm pretty sure there's plenty of players that DO benefit from these shard farms. The world does not revolve around you.

And honestly Unit how often do you actually farm? I was under the impression that you didn't actually grind much (I could be wrong though).

i'm not flaming anyone in particular
it just weirded me out to see nicknames with a bunch of numbers behind them
i tried looking for the origin...it might be as old as internet itself or maybe even older, like from futuristic sci-fi novels by asimov or whoever that started this trend. still looking. and still annoyed

I like the shard farms, even when the shards are upped, because free money!

Quite obviously, these nicknames are representative of the amount of awesome. Those without numbers just don't need the extra ego boost.

I think the reason is that people will make a username in some game or forum or whatever, and get used to that as their name. Then they come to some other site, try to register, and find that its taken. Rather than make up some other name and have to get used to being called that, they just add numbers to the end so that people can still call them by their name, but its considered a different name. Of course there are some that just want to use numbers because they like them, but yeah :P.

When people on Kong chat complain, I give them the most annoying decks I can come up with.  A farm is a courtesy not a privelege.

Agreed.

Would you rather there was no farms and you have to pay for your shards, or grind FG till the end of time?

For those that offer shard farms, I thank you.
