I could live with keeping untrained units. but if you make lifers untouchable, then the people with many thousands of lifers (100K+) would be able to rebuild relatively quickly.
political correctness is a doctrine fostered by an illogical liberal minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mass media that holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
I believe gun control is being able to hit your target.

let them, we don't need cry babies in the game. we need solid players who are willing to deal with the ups and downs of war, not just the ups.

Many people are assuming that you loose everything in regular. I haven't seen anything that says what your main account looses.
I had always assumed that when someone was descended their main account simply became the appropriate race type they ascended from. All the weapons became non ascended. troops are troops and spy levels are spy levels. I'd imagine the worst that happens beyond loosing your access to ascended weapons is you might loose all your weapons but keep all your UU soldiers, spies, and spy levels. But that is just my take on the problem.

I personally can't stand ascension. It is a waste of my time... to force people to play it is rediculous.
It was stated in the ascension screen that ascending is a risk. If you read the screen about ascnesion when you were ascending you'd have known there was a risk.
just because it is a risk doesn't mean that everything you own is at risk.... hell, the millions of UU spent ascending is enough of a risk in itself.

the uu spent ascending is not a risk, it's a price, just like losing the bonus on main would be the price of not being a good ascended being.

Considering the lead many of the players who have been here from the start have on others I think something needs to be done to prevent them from running rampant and descending pretty much anyone who might one day catch up on them, as such perhaps further enhancing the rank modifier might keep people who're new to the game happy and safe, it really would be a clash of the gods so as opposed to clash of the god and the cult leader who knows a few things.

actually it's prophet now, and yes I am ready to to lose practically everything. I have put time and effort into my ascended account, and am ready to fight with it to defend myself. If I do get descended (though I don't know anyone with enough of a grudge against me to try), then I know that I will have a least put up a good fight.

Well good for you, since you haven't probably saved and used close to 1tril naq to boost yourself, despite the effort of reaching 5 ascensions.MGZ wrote:Vulcurum wrote:And this is Prior talking eh...?MGZ wrote:let them, we don't need cry babies in the game. we need solid players who are willing to deal with the ups and downs of war, not just the ups.Are you personally ready to lose practically everything?

I wouldn't care if I lost it all after ascending 1000 times, I would keep playing if only for the challenge.
and besides, why is people quitting such a bad thing? so they can't handle the elite server, just keeps things among the elite. (not claiming to be so elite myself, but I aim to be)

you would CARE, if you didnt CARE you wouldnt be playing, and if you had ascended 1000 times you would more than CARE if yo got descended.
