Just by replying to you i've already lost this forumquest unfortunately. "never argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". That shit holds true for almost every bit of forumquest interaction here
LMFAO, as I started to read your reply I am like ....Why is Dacuk responding to drakar... and then I read this Gem, lol. literally fell off my chair.

a lot of crybaby bitching in this thread. be appreciative of the server we have. fucking babies.

If you don't like it, apply to be a guide and maybe if you are accepted you can make an impact. if you're not accepted it means you aren't qualified for their standards, so therefore have no leg to stand on to complain when you are playing on a free box where the owners are allowed to make whatever rules they want.

You think they need red? lol, if i was rogean i would shit this shithole down and just enjoy blue.
I don't think they need either server, but what's your point?

People wouldn't be playing here, let alone posting their ideas to hopefully make the server better, if they were ungrateful. This isn't even about their (GM) contributions, which are vast; it's about altering the way they already do things because of their limited resources.

If they set a very clear precedent for dummies that break the rules, do you think people will continue breaking them? No.

Not to get all intellectual about it, but it's like Foucault's Panopticon, where once the precedent has been set, the toxic part of the community will live on simply policing themselves for fear of retribution.

Andis, adolescents are talking. Please.

You do realize the purpose of a precedent is to frighten assholes and assure those who don't it won't be stood for.

I like how Lite literally just expressed the same sentiment and you chose to post and quote me anyway.

i know man. the whole story of this server is he doesn't care. how do people not realize that? this is the hand we've been dealt - just gotta play it and make the best of it we can.

in a perfect world we'd have community leaders that could manage this on their own. imagine if you lite powered gongshow and some other random slosh or flowers moran got in teamspeak once a week, with the overall community as the number one goal for that meeting, and acted on in game and forum behavior from your members that was detrimental to the community and actively held them accountable and disciplined.

Thats what it would take. Unfortunately don't see that happening. but if we want the server to change, thats what would need to happen. not crying to rogean

It is really sad an amazing that a group of adults in a 200 population box, with a high level of commitment and tons of feels and cares cant collaborate in a mature and respectful way to make the game enjoyable for everyone.....or maybe the toxicity is why the people who stick around and play still stick around and play.

Part of the problem is there are a high number of people who only get enjoyment out of being toxic.

Anyone who'd delevel an epic warrior to 30 so they can troll MM is a prime example.

you know, i actually talked to lite the first week holocaust was formed, said we should do this, he said yeah man sure that sounds good every time, then on sunday before and pvp i followed up and said "hey dude, let's push the timers back a few hours so we can have some decent pvp over it, we have 7 people online atm" and he said "dude no, this is probably the best time to raid.."

so i tried again the next week, talked to powered, coat, and salem in teamspeak for like an hour one night about moving timers around, they all said "no why should we help out these faggots that were in nihilum, we have no sympathy for them, fuck them" so basically every single thing i requested was rejected, and azrael continued raiding at shitty times, i think the only thing that came out of it was CT was pushed to monday a few weeks later which would have happened naturally anyway

so then i tried making a post on the forums highlighting all the things we should do as leaders to make the server less retarded, more casual, more fun, etc., and got told that holocaust wasn't a guild they took seriously and that until we recruit and contest they give zero fucks about what we wanted

in theory what we have/had in mind was great, but most people simply just want to win everything and have no interest in cooperating

my biggest issue again is that 100's of people have applied and have been rejected because of the so called "lofty standards" yet we get people like Amelinda repeatedly.
