[qoute]Jiman: "I agree, the current war MD is in will not be healthy for the server in any way."
War is not unhealthy or healthy. It is simply part of the game. When I speak of bullying I mean ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about war.[/qoute]
I disagree.
War is apart of the game. The issue since there is a low poulation in the game, constant wars for netting alliances is going to almost be unavoidable if things like what occured this set happens. In THAT context, I am 100% right. You would be right if the game had a bigger poulation, but that simply is not the case. Things are different, please understand that. I think you are a well thought out individual when you create posts, I would ask you attempt to try to understand the context of the statements made before you qoute and reply us.
*hugs*
[qoute]Jiman: "I do not think those two things are easily comparable..."
You are dead on with this post. Netting alliances getting whacked by warring alliances is bad. Warring alliances getting gangbanged is bad. I'm sure you guys will get your retribution and I have no problem with it. We call that, warring for a point. Something I am for.[/qoute]
Thank you for the positive comments :-) The issue is that the retribution that will occur is not going to be positive for the server. I do not think you understand the state of the game. Since there is a low population of players, constant wars for netting alliances are going to force those netters to want to stop playing. LCN is a netting alliance, yet they have seen constant war recently... is this really the retribution the players of the game want to see when it may force people to leave the game? There are not many alliances to war against, there for netting allainces are going to get more love much more often.
[qoute]Jiman: "This does not mean it should be up to us, the players of the game, to have to worry about whether the game will survive or not if we choose to do something one way or another (again, the context of the statement which i was refering too)."
It totally does. You've played long enough to be helpful. It's not up to the nubs to grow membership but it is up to you to at least not be hurtful.[/qoute]
Again context. I am referring to the now and the actions we take now. You say its ok if SOL seeks retribution, yet you say we should avoid being harmful? That is contradictory.
For us to avoid being harmful, we will have to avoid retribution.
