Remove NG - main ties ie no more "legit Multis"

As NG was set originally to ease new players into playing main, and as far as I know the ascended acc you get when finish on there has no beginner bonuses.. why is it necessary at all?

Its rediculous you can have legit multis now,

Time to make New Grounds a stand alone game

Section Admins - who will be 'in charge' of the section in question. They will be responsible for the overall feel of the section, the setup/structure, and most importantly the community/users in the section. This will incorporate the old 'ombudsman' role. And insofar as the Section Admin is responsible for the users, they are also responsible for the high level mod behaviour towards the users.
So -as a user - if you have an issue with how you are treated, rules, bans, whatever --goto the section admin... They are there for you!

There is no 'reporting structure' in this setup -- tech, mod, and section admins are all on equal footing, each with their own (somewhat overlapping) responsibilities.
Mods report directly to the mod admin, and indirectly to the section admin for the section in which they mod.

Re: Remove NG - main ties ie no more "legit Multis"

To be honest, I hate the idea. Fair enough if you want to allow new players to start off in a different server to spoon-feed them the game - ease them into it. But we didn't have that service to use, and we were fine! And that was in a much more active server.

The possibility of a legal multi has put a mechanic into the game that I, personally, do not favour. I don't want to play it and end up with a multi account, but in order to keep up with the rest of the players I feel like I need to. It's not right.

Keep NG separate - and then when the new players feel like that can brave the not-so-big-bad world of the main server, they create a new account. They'll fly through the first bits and end up with a great account of their own in no time. Meanwhile, we on the main server will stick with what we have been used to - one account per player. I know the Gods are trying to shake the game up a little, but this is the wrong way to go about it. :smt018

Re: Remove NG - main ties ie no more "legit Multis"

This battle was fought and lost. Although significant evidence was provided as to how allowing legal multi accounts would fundementally change and hurt the game play of the main server, it was ignored and passed through. There were several good alternatives to the legal multi and again ignored. Newgrounds is yet another avenue for admin to make money. Why would he stop that? I'm sorry to say but this battle will be lost again because of the stubborn, unwilling to compromise admins of the game.

Wonder why my post count is so low? Thats because I was deleted. Why you may ask?
Well, thats because I exposed the truth about Zeratul and Admin Jason had to cover it up.

Re: Remove NG - main ties ie no more "legit Multis"

NG Multis should be made available to those who played main less than 1/2 years....this gives noobs the chance to compete 2v1 against older players with stronger accounts
Even if you hear a bad story about me, Understand that there was a time I was good to those people to, But they won’t tell you that...

And how, pray tell, would you prove someone plays Main less than half a year? By account age? :lol: And what do you do when the accounts reach half a year + 1 day? Roll a die and delete one? I can see that would lead to more investments in both accounts. Oh wait. I cannot. :D


Anyway. The NG multis are here to stay. Feel free to recommend changes, suggestions or other ideas as to how they are incorporated in Main, but they will not be removed, and NG will remain tethered to Main. Within that frame of reference, we are very interested to hear your thoughts and suggestions.

Re: Remove NG - main ties ie no more "legit Multis"

Well it adds another level of people being here longer having a better chance at more power, and also brings more of the person with the most money/time has a advantage.

It changes the game, maybe just limiting what the 2ed account can actually do? (remove attack? or something like this <need input>)

Re: Remove NG - main ties ie no more "legit Multis"

I'm close to getting mine, but I think its pointless allowing everyone to have a multi. The only benefit is there are plenty who have illegal multis. This evens the playing field. Still rather have no multi though.

That's my take on it. How do you beat the cheaters? Play them at their own game. but by the book.

It's not like you can have 9 accounts. and some of the more prolific multies in the past have been known to use several accounts. Not just 2. I agree with kat's take on it. Evens the playing field.

and, I'm kinda fond of the little guy >.>

Re: Remove NG - main ties ie no more "legit Multis"

IMO forcing others to use more time, to breed up a multi to compete, is a bit of punch in the gut, even though we all have the ability to get one. It's like buying covert levels with $$ all over again.

+1

You should all be tackling the other side of the argument not this one.
How can you make it more fairer for those who refuse to have a multi?
If you can find a reasonable solution to that question and find a side to not everyone being able to get a multi (i.e there not existing a path between all users so equilibrium is impossible or a farcry) and present them to AJ he may budge (actually that's probably your greatest chance...).

You all know this topic will just exist for the sake of complaining :P, it won't change.
