Who else thinks main server is starting to suck ?

[Boooby]

Its what the majority wanted really, he wanted to please the ones who voted in the extortion thread, atleast his doing something about it

[Grand Admiral Martin]

i dont think main sucks, take away the smaller caps and its better. make some changes here and there only minor things thats all it needs.

[Tok`ra]

The main server is not the one who should be discused...more like ascension...about the purgetory...yes...a silly idea that much I agree

But I would to believe that admin wants to make the game more interesting etc...his is doing his best, but he is only human after all...

And what do you know...perhaps this prugetory stuff is great and you and me are just too blind to see it...

I tried doing that, but pookie refused to allow assencion to be discussed in general, even tho I referd to DMU as naq and planets as miners n UU as appropiate.

Oh wait, I called them by their assencion terms.

Oops.

Hey pookie, use that magical serch function as others get told to and youll find its NOT a secret on these fourms.

First entire Tok'ra post I've ever read. Must have been captivating

Oh, problems? No. Younglings want to much too soon without any hard work and effort. The 'top' players are well within their rights to exploit their natural resources for cash as they damn well please because after all, admin can do what the hell he likes at any time. Might as well get your moneys worth. It's called profiteering and I smell jealous noobs.

All hail the cash cows.

[Tok`ra]

I not saying the cash cows aint within their right, hell I plainly said they have nothing else to do.

The problem is the limiting factors combied with all these updates to supposedly help new players 'catch up'.

Well guess what, NOTHING will help new players catchup other than playing the game for a while.

maybe you should also point finger then to the people who "help" newbies get powerfull or up to ascension in 4-5 weeks... because those newbies get also powerfull..
When I started I needed to figure it out myself, nowadays almost all alliances build their weakest, newest players up to rank 2k to get towards ascension asap to gain more power.
if a "older" player sends some 2 or 3 hundred millions of naq to a n00b to build up you get situations like now that there are too many people seeing a million naq as pocketchange

[Tok`ra]

So whats wrong with helping newer players ?

Personaly, I havent helped my officers ascend ASAP. I told them to get to a certain ammount of lifer/UU before ascending, or else I would lend no assistance at all. Officer ascended, but followed my plan, and she didnt have much of a problem rebuilding either, as she waited a long time to ascend.

there is nothing wrong with helping new players but you are complaining that too many players are getting too powerfull.
The helping players issue is also one of the reasons why there are that much powerfull players... one of the many reasons...

[Tok`ra]

I have no problem with powerful players, what I DO have the problem with if you read what I wrote is that once they get too large they have no room to expand, so they have nothing else to do.

You can't control prices. People will pay what they want for stuff. The only thing you could do is stop all player to player trades.


All this seems to say the same thing to me. The people who want to grow will grow, the people who are not concerned with growth don't.

[Tok`ra]

Simple. Remove the plauge and other size limits.

People will HAVE to grow as their enemies grow.

[Nutter]

I think the game is good except one or two things, including the fact that the top 20 or something are in big NAP's anyone who tries to get there to overtake then gets massed because they aren't part of COP.

valid point

[Tok`ra]

And I say that any update should have a 30day waiting period once the specifics are determined, post a poll in general (BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE SIMPLY DONT READ THE OTEHR FOURMS) and have a simple vote only thread, yes or no.
