I just love the first few weeks of a new era, all the noobs come out to play and farm people they should't be, and to make matters worse i've had ppl trying to give me advice on how to play.
Just so they know they may as well call me fraking Santa Clause this era, cause i'm making a list and checking it twice and i'm going to deliver early presents in the form of massings to any noob hitting me for less than 1.5X the average hit..
Noobs, enjoy your stats while you can, cause as usual you will all fall to the way side in the end (well mostly anyway)
please post your thrilling encounters of the noob kind below for a laugh.

I'll set peace for peace for those interested and war for war to those who are not.

LOL!
Those that know you might wonder if you are drunk or not

and if not why not dammit!
Put aside the fact its only 8am, you've probly been up long enough to get legless so there are no excuses :p
Oh yeah, surprisingly enough hellsing makes it back on to the noob list, I thought he might have been past that but apparently not, according to him he is pretty top **Filtered** because he is able to spend his naq on stats instead of UP 2-3 days into the era and then "snipe" actives for less then what the average inactive hit was... smart

Its just how Q sorts the weak from the strong...
First few days of a new era attracts noobs..
They make bad choices in spending their naq.. and farm the wrong people..
after a week or two they have been massed, and all that naq that should have been in UP is wasted.
They then have a choice...
build up for revenge, using what they learned and not making the same mistake again.. or run away and cry.
I like seeing people who have the guts to stick it out.. but unfortunately they are the minority..

C'mon Elliot, don't sell yourself short... I think you make a wonderfully FINE
no!!
You just make a miserable early morning speller... HAHAHAHA
I already have the notice of some Noobs creating accounts and Officers 'willy-nilly' but posted that elsewhere...
Again, if you don't join Q and right away the first day or two Snipe 'Affable' Affy for about 5 times less than what the average Farms have out, maybe I would not later notice you creating 4 or 5 Officers with ids all in a concurrent row.... with similar naming conventions, and similar Special ascii characters...
Epic...
