Here are a few preliminary thoughts about making guides in forum.
Anyone can make guides. The creation of guides should not be limited to the elite few. Forum is a social place and many people enjoy sharing information.
As for my guide, I wrote it because doing so entertained me, and that is ultimately why I am here. I hang out in forum because it amuses me. If you are amused and entertained bymy guides, threads, and other posts, that's great for you, but your enjoyment of my forumming is not required .
Did my guide have any new information? To people who have been around for a while, the answer is "no" but to newbs, the answer would be "yes" so it really is a perspective issue.
Am I the most qualified and competent warrior in KaW? No. Not even close . I can give you a nice list of people who have bested me in battle. Do I care? Not really. So long as I am sufficiently entertained, then my goals have been accomplished.
So, if I, or wulf, or "joe blow new guy" decides to write a guide, I have no issue with it. People are free to post guides, and forum is free to comment on those guides as they see fit. That's how it works here
As for me specifically, I will admit to you and everyone else who asks........ "I am nothing special. I'm just your average moose"
Anyhow, hope that clears things up a bit. Keep the fun discussion going, and as always,
Happy KaWing
