    Yep, In my opinion. Ofc nobody has to say it's the correct one but at least am trying to support an idea on how to improve the system whereas you want it to stay the same because YOU have no problem with it and at the same time give no "penny" about other person's opinion.

    If a geologist is 'petty', then all the more reason why it shouldn't be upsetting you so much. It really isn't silly to compare an explorer with the bookbinder. Explorers bring back extremely valuable items - a Black Knights or Nords is worth a huge amount to a player - and losing many hours search time over a year could mean losing many valuable advs. It really is the same basic thing as the bookbinder.

    Try looking at it a different way. We are all puzzled as to why there isn't a queueing system for the bookbinder, but what are you actually losing as a result? It's the same for all of us, so you're not losing out to other players, so what are you losing out on? Look at it that way and maybe it will make things clearer.

    I really don't understand what other players have to do with this... This is not a competition you know. It is about having an efficient island and an efficient Book Binder considering the slowness and costs of the books as a whole. It's okay that it is slow but it doesn't have to be flawed.

    Explorers bringing Nords and BK? That's really laughable and funny that you pick those 2 specific advents considering the very low percentage they have. It's mostly Secluded and Sons and that takes a whooping 1 day (fast) or 2 days time which give no trouble.

    For one the idea isn't even in the suggestion forum. Its in general, so this is just an informal chat on said topic. I actually stated I was happy to roll with it, not that I had a preference either way. So maybe you should get your facts straight " you want it to stay the same" I said this when?? that's what I thought!!! I didn't, So don't twist things to suit your cause!

    I give no time to any other person opinion?? really? Oh wait whats this I typed on the previous page?? "Your suggestion is a good one, I wouldn't dare say different" Bob is correct IMO it is an imperfect system, but its one that doesn't really need to be blown out of proportion.

    This proves my point. If it's not perfect then the more reason to have a discussion about it. If there's room for improvement then by all means it should be.

    There is a difference between a discussion and telling people their comments are worthless. You strive for perfection? I'm happy to just roll the dice and see where that takes me. Maybe you could try to make your case without the need to be aggressive and rude.

    You know what they say... if you have nothing constructive to add to a discussion, better move along. And honestly thats how i see that specific comment... That is not rude nor aggressive and am sorry if you feel that way. I do not strive for perfection but I find the whole science system to be incomplete at the moment and especially the Book Binder.

    Rather than keep on commenting over this and getting no where, moving on. Its not that this is a bad idea, far from it. There are just other things I believe should take priority over this. I don't feel strongly enough about either way to care much about it, It is what it is, Life goes on!

    Seems to me like you're the one being rude. Nobody's shouting at you through the screen, unless you're playing hard core rock. Do you really have to derail this topic? If you have more of those insults i suggest you take it to PM without trolling this thread. It's a genuine discussion.

    Down to perspective and yours seems to be a very narrow one.
