I don't mean folks like Tin and Kaneohe and the others. No, I'm looking for input on who the best and brightest are in the Forum without having their name in green.
When you need feedback, who do you ask?
When you read advice and guidance, which names do you trust?

I don't think Blasty came back to the forum after the forum ban expired.

You know, one of our admins warned me a thread like this would turn into a sh1tshow. If it goes a full page in this vein, I'll conclude the time isn't right for it, lock it, and move on.

Shaolinrogue is very very helpful.
Recently, I've gotten much help from Russel. Darkangel does good job around too.

I would agree with the others on Dark Angel, He and I have had our differences in the past but, he is very knowledgeable about the game and does offer a lot of solid advice to new players.

Pretty hard to say who's advice is really legit. Other way around would be way easier...
I like to read/mostly agree with posts from heavypanda, paps, russel. i also liked blastronauts contribution. I disagree on darkangel though. Only thing he ever says is everything needs a nerf and/or everything needs a buff....

. After a couple months of playing I began to take note of the whole League scoring thing and realized I didn't really understand the finer points of it. So I started asking questions on this board and "Zer00eyz" was patient enough to explain everything to me (a couple of times on some things). At some point the proverbial light bulb went on over my head and I pretty much got it. He's very knowledgeable on the numbers involved in the scoring system and takes the time to explain it to others.

I've been a lurker on this forum since I started playing War Robots a few months ago.
I find Russel, Llama4president, Paps, Oppressor, and Zer00ey's inputs on the game spot on. I'd like to add more names but I can't recall their names.
What I also liked about these fellas is they communicate like what a normal, sane person would do, without the need to act tough just to prove one's point which makes me think if they are as antisocial or even hostile in real life.

I remember when I first came here, how welcome it felt to see information in "regular English" that I could understand without needing a ton of gameplay experience. You're right about all except zer00eyz , by the way. Obviously you haven't met him in real life. Bigtime hostile.

I believe PeteV (not sure the exact spelling) is a really solid (and trusted) resource when we discuss topics.
To be honest I tend to put much more weight on comments made by players who:
1. Have played for a long period of time (therefore have the background to measure current game meta/mechanics against previous game iterations).
2. Have worked their way to max the long way. While someone can certainly pay to play, majority of maxed players still have experience in end game play.
3. Posters who are fairly unbiased. There are certainly players who don't have longevity or end game experience, but are still trusted posters (in my eyes). They're able to comment in a balanced manner but also acknowledge their lack of knowledge in certain game areas. Being humble is absolutely important if you'd like me to "hear" you when you post.
Those I never believe to be "trusted" when I read through the threads are...
-Those that purposely? work to incite infighting within the community (eg trolling). Sorry, you're not working to help the community, you're just trying to cause drama.
-Those that try to post as an authority on end game mechanics but are either tankers or still in silver league with nothing higher than lvl 9. Sorry, I don't trust you because you don't have the high level view of what end game play is like. As such, how can you purport to be a subject matter expert on anything outside of your narrow game experience?
I'll add more names (if the mods would like) as I skim through the more contentious threads looking for level headed responders.

All the words I would use to describe myself get caught in the filter, and to be honest are a lot less glamorous that way....

Honestly, I toss it out there. Not all TCs give good advice.
Ya know zerOOeyz and I don't always agree, but he's pretty solid. (Don't tell him I said so, it will go to his head)
I like the idea you and Shaolin tossed out with a pairing of energy and physical shield bot. A clanmate of mine and I tried it with my plasmahad and his thunder carnage. We need practice, but interesting and fun. Would seem to build great 2 mad deth squads tactics with any bots.
As far as hostile as the Joker said and was described:
"Wait till they get a load of me"
"Some people just want to see the world burn"

I'm not TC material, but what you see is what you get. I aint mod material either. I do try to do my part here and there.
If zerOOeyes is big time hostile in the word, but is contained here, not sure its an issue.

I would like to say that i have a really big list of names, because i like to hear many people opinions, even if they differ with mine. What i appreciate most is when people DO explain themselves, they put effort to show their point of view so other people can understand. What in these months i have understood, is that everyone of us has a particular perception of how the game works, so facts are pretty basics, but some points are perceived more by some individuals, and even if there is a difference in opinion i feel honored to (when they do explain themselves) be enriched by their different point of view. This sometime brings light to some aspects that may seem marginal at first, but instead are an ingredient in the concoction that i was missing to see. See, this game is not just A+B+C = War robots. Many times you gotta explore the minute details that weren't even meant by the Devs, and those appear only through experiencing the game with open eyes. So my list would be really big, from those whom i think i share my point of view, but would go even to those that i would beg to differ, as they often balance the plate. A few names i would recommend for their helpfulness are Russel , zer00eyz , 0ppressor, +DethHilt+, hyderier, FRΞΞDØM☆F1GHTΞR, Paps, Ⅎ₹ѺC₭₩ELDEℲ₹, Golden Sabre, @darkangel12s, and i'm sure i'm forgetting many others that would deserve to be mentioned.

I have honestly stopped seeking advice on this forum. When the toxic members are removed/leave and a sense of community returns maybe we will have true trusted contributors again.
