hence the get together's/ conventions that have evolved because of the community spirit that exist threw out this game, forum, community...whatever term fits best for each of us.

This game is indeed based on wars however as u play with a real community things change over the years. Back in the old days there wasnt an awfull lot of wars in StarGateWARS. Indeed back then it took planning and skill to take out your opponent however diplomatic relations were also a daily routine. Since the start a lot has changed and it became way easier to make "war". This still didnt mean that eveyrhting in this game revolves around wars. The intention of the game is to have fun and play with friends in a team effort.

For some the fun is gone and the game has just become a game to kill time with but with a nice community around it (most of the times). Heck even i notice that the major fun there was back in the old dayds has dissapeared mostly. But i am still here cause i got to meet great people aswell on my friends as on my enemy list ingame and with them i have experienced a lot over the past few years. I can understand Psi's reasoning to quit the game and i agree that if u drive someone away from the game ur killing the game. However personally i woudnt let people drive me from the game as i simply are more into the community then the game itself. For me the game is just a sideshow.

Psi i hope u reconsider ur quitting and even though my alliance member is in combat with u you will sitll be a friend for me

Agree to a point - but to say there were less wars previously is wrong. I'd say there were relatively the same amount of wars back at the beginning as there are now. The difference is that they they were more difficult to co-ordinate. People couldn't just simply buy thousands of AT and then post about massing an entire alliance on the forum, while simultaneously dumping their defence so they can't get hurt - which people can now do on a whim. Another difference back then is that wars were generally for a reason or purpose - unlike today where we get a lot of them just simply because people are bored of the monotony that the game has become. It's happened because of certain updates, which have in turn bred arrogance.

Can we do a lot about it, probably not. The reason I first left was because of an increase in my real life responsibilities, but also because the game had degenerated to a poor shadow of its former self. I've been back a year and although much has been added, nothing has really been improved. I remain around because of the friends I've made, and because of a waning hope that myself, and others like me, can actually force a change by showing people how and why the game has degenerated and what needs to be done to improve it.

I am sure you understand.

Stop throwing words around that mean pretty much nothing. haha is all I have to say to your post.

Anyone can hit/mass anyone else they want simple as that.

Tekki wrote:How'd we get on to Vulturing? lol

Fact of the matter is that every alliance deals with hits on them differently. If you hit someone who is in a war and they mass you, that's their choice to do that, whether it is vulturing or not, just as it was your choice to hit them for naq.

Vulturing is just a word used to define hitting while someone's at war but being at war doesn't mean you shouldn't be hit by outside parties, just means you need to define what your response to it in advance.
