besides i dont really think recreational players come on 2+2 to decide if they are gonna play hu hypers or not
and as you can see most people are in support of this cartel(atleast on 100`s) as long as everyone skilled enough has an equal chance to get in

Emus is right.
While I agree with a lot of what PKR says, I'm not convinced we should sound the alarms as far as the image of this thread (I stopped arguing it because at the end of the day it's far more important that these groups operate as transparently and fairly as possible if we don't want PS to step in and make some changes that we may have little control over and could ruin what is a great and prosperous game of HUSNG currently).
But as far as recreational players coming into this forum, there are tons of them. This is the 2nd largest place where HUSNG players come, and knowing how many unique users visit this forum a month, there aren't even 10% of those that could possibly be winning players (of course, not every visitor is going to be a heads up sng player, but even if 25% of visitors to this forum play HUSNGs, which is probably quite low, that probably means it's still around 4-1 of non winning vs winning players that come here).
Not to mention there are going to be slight winners, or losing players that don't play a lot but hit a heater and are currently winners.
Thinking how we are articulating a point, if we're just being aggressive and argumentative or if we're adding a new point that is open to being countered by reason is important when we post about topics like this.
I'm telling you guys, both sides of this need to do a better job of working together. If we're not careful, it could very well bring about changes that nobody is interested in. So maybe more people in the groups can talk about what potential improvements can be made, and more people against the groups can consider the merit of groups under certain improved conditions.
*Not trying to preach either, some of my posts in this thread had too much arguing in them and could've been presented better.
