JT said it quite well actually. There are less people ingame from the last server war. Another never-ending war, or 2-3 year war would mean a lot less people as members left and abandoned or sold their accounts.
While it sounds attractive, it's not the way to go. Yes it allows growth but it also DICTATES ONLY ONE way of playing.
*chuckles* How many people continued playing their own way in the previous server wars? I know I did, and most of my alliances did..
when we participated in the first one, it was our own decision. *grin*
True that!
KGB was fun time.

So because people were leaving, a server war will fix it…. How naïve of you.
I would look at the reasons people were leaving – age, money spending, etc rather than trying to come up with a one hit fix… which still does not address the way that a server war dictates one way of play. Sniping.
We are in awe of JT's posting skills.

Maybe it's less about saving the game and more about going out with a bang..

Well the only way we are going to save the game, which ought to be THEE agenda is for people to knock off this idiotic gossip spreading, shaking trees for intel on conspiracies that dont exist, swallow your god dam pride and get down to business and EVERYBODY come to a conclusion within themselves and make a choice to DO YOUR PART. THEN maybe we can have wars and solve conflicts without them lasting for a year or 2 years. But as long as there is only a small group doing that and another group resisting that (just for the spite of it) then its business as usual until nobody plays no mo
Consider that, and somebody please close these gossip topics.

Whilst on crazy rumours...was there any strength behind the ricos/mH/DDE one?
Just out of curiosity
I was hoping for a big war when the houses update came to fruition...I think the big guns are scared of their shadows now...they've grown weak in this time for tranquility. Though such a war would be fun...it would be for a month or two..maybe we should organise that?
That'll clear some of these silly defences out there..mind, I wouldn't want the challenge of a 250t defence...no sir, not me

We did have the suggestion on the OE forum to have a server war once a year for 2-3 months of the year. But we could not figure out how to make it work.

Yes, actually the 3 alliance leaderships were on teamspeak one evening..and JJ(whereub)farted and that pissed off Foresee, then ARk got pissed because Forsee was pissed at JJ, so then I got pissed because JJ farted and Ark and Forsee was pissed because I was pissed at them, so Yes the 3 alliances almost went to war against each other that day because JJ farted.This big gun aint afraid of nuthin

I fail to see how claiming something can be done and wanting to do it being the same thing.
I know I can go bunchy jumping tomorrow - but that doesn't mean I want to.
That being said, do all of OE agree on all subjects ?

Perhaps not in this conversation but certainly the ‘certainty’ that it could be done was used to justify a few things, KJ.

I don't object to money being spent but the entire game becomes very unenjoyable for most if i'ts a few against others... there is no reason to try if they know they can't catch up, and if they know their opponent can't fight a war without cash.
Another server war will just see a heap of accounts being sold or abandoned and the numbers of people playing reduced even further. If we want that, then sure we can do that, but less people = bad and the fact that there is less people STILL from the last one just proves my point. The game still hasn't recovered.
But if that's what alliances want to bring against us - OE, then so be it.
I agree whole heartedly my dear! Nicely said.
