Yup ;)

He remains the only non-spambot we've ever banned though, so I think we're doing okay. Plus I don't think he's a troll per-se, he's just really bad at listening and incredibly entitled.

Personally, I think the veto slots and the locker slots are fine as they are. I'm not willing to put that much time into the game that I have to scum for anything, so my solution is simply to play the dungeons that don't require scumming.
And I don't think thats devaluing the game, because I can have just as much fun with those dungeons.

After all, I think for me the most fun in the game is had when you solve random problems that show up during the run. Of course it's nice to win, but if there is no risk in loosing due to having a guaranteed perfect set up, then whats the point?
So I think the lockers essentially do the thing they are supposed to - derandomize the game as you progress through it in order to have better chances at the harder dungeons.

I see them as a gift from the mighty devs as a little comfort for the frustration the game brings up at times instead of a given right.

I generally agree. I'm not sure why the devs are so hard set against a mechanism for elite players to be able to access any item they want, but I'm even more unsure why Lujo is unable to restrain himself any time the topic comes up (still have him blocked, I only read snippets of his textwalls as quoted by others).

Go back and play the alpha if you really want to know about scumming...

Oh dear. That was awful.

Blocking Lujo seems a bit extreme (except when it comes to lockers, in which case it might be worth it), since he has put a lot of good time and helpful advice and suggestion into the forums. It's your choice though, so feel free to ignore me.

It goes way back, to when he was first railing against the Monk.

I'll click through to read some, but it does make scanning the forum much easier. And if there's a discussion going on, people will generally quote relevant snippets, so it all works out.
