I thought that the forums were for raging.........

But then if You look at Rift or WoW forums(and prolly others I never visited), this "raging" here on Turbine forums is more like English gentlemen club meeting

Maybe they're not posting it here because we're too.... emo?

But I would like to know who are these emos person you are referring to.. (plz, feel free to pm me )

I'm not sure if it's that we're more polite than it is Turbine isn't afraid to be a little suspend/ban happy if they hear something they consider offensive. At least it has the desired effect, you don't see a lot of scathing insults flying around.

Faint...I'm feeling so very, very faint. Please, someone bring me my smelling salts and about five mint juleps.

Mostly decent changes,especially glad they are finally giving us a slow after 4 years of asking for one and scaling IDOME.That said the changes to LoM and the new -brother skills aren't well thought out. Most people will simply use shield brother for the inc healing and hot inspire then swap to blade brother for to arms then back basically adding 2 more steps to get the same result as now, except more annoying. If anything the alternate versions of sow/inspire/to arms should be separate skills and the new -brother skills themselves removed, the only problem with this would be the ability to have both hot and pot inspire ticking at the same time.

As far as the LoM changes they really need to decide if its a tanking tree or a buff tree. Personally I don't see the need to have a tanking tree since we aren't needed as main tanks. grds,wrds, and champs are much better options than cpt could ever hope to be, even hunters can be better ST tanks. And as far as offtanking we are decent enough at it without wasting traits.

Alternately I liked Joelburg's idea where LoM becomes a tank line, and the old LoM capstone basically gets spread among the other capstones, particularly the "brother effects will be fellowship wide and the captain will receive full effect" combined with HoH, as it would make the -brother skills abit more worthwhile. However his ideas would also take the most reworking of the class and given that it is fairly close to RoI launch I have almost no confidence that even if the devs wanted to they could make the changes and get them through sufficient balance testing.
