i know of one new player, as in new to EE, who apparently selfdeleted and my guess is that person wouldnt be playing anymore.

keep it up land greedy b*tches, keep it up

p.s. the player applied to a clan and got rejected and farmed instead so your "why didnt he join a clan" remark doesnt work

No offense, but your post was pretty ridiculous so I was just messing around.

Do you really expect the entire server full of people to behave up to your standards of fair play? Obviously you expect way too much. That's never going to change unless the game changes to force it.

For the record I hardly even grab and I haven't double tapped anyone this round.

Spawn: When I started playing I played the tourney and then got recruited to 1a. I don't know why someone would pick the alliance game to start at. Maybe he saw too many army of one commercials.

Secondly, if you get so upset from getting grabbed that you delete, then you probably aren't going to last in this game anyways. Even if he was noobing it up in another server he probably would have gotten farmed.

so your way of getting recruited into an alliance in the only valid one?

the guy probably wanted to join an alliance and thus started a country on the alliance server, thought about that?

getting grabbed and having a clan to back you up or getting farmed without the chance of doing any damage back is quite the difference

I'm pretty sure I didn't say that or even imply it.

Sure, so why didn't he apply to a different one after he got rejected?

You can get farmed on any server by someone you can't hardly do any damage too and it happens all of the time.

I could also tell a story about a player new to EE.

Joined up with SoF, but didn't want to farm untags, so he hit tagged countries, lost 3x the land on the retals, and quit the game. Near as we can tell, he won't play again.

keep it up land greedy b*tches, keep it up.

i'm still here. people who play earth aren't children. if you've managed to create a country, then i'm sure you could manage to find the forums and ask for help.

it's a pity the 'war' clans just do the same as the netting clans do the untaggeds.

only difference is that the morose actions of the warring alliances drive away greater numbers of experienced players.

So an experienced player could say:
"If anyone hits {tag the player is in) this set I`m (rage-)quitting"
and then no one is supposed to hit them because that would drive players away from the game?

I doubt any clan rejected him... more likely he got asked to join, and then rejected them... maybe LaF tried getting him to join, when he said no, they farmed him.


I know a person who joined this server and joined a clan.. he is now giving the Thumbs up sign while at his computer.

Maybe there should be an explanationin the sign up process, or somewhere in the alliance game, about the need to join an alliance.

Accompany it with directions on how to join an alliance and how to apply.

Maybe each alliance can be given a space on the clan page to pitch themselves and offer a link to the application page.

Personal advice to any newbies who are trying to keep their defenseless countries from being farmed: Send out plenty of "Don't hit me again" messages with your retaliatory missiles. While this won't stop people from hitting you, it will make them more willing to reply, and will therefore provide you with the opportunity to make contact with and garner pity from vets about your situation, hopefully leading to a recruitment as they get to know you better.

Hey, if it worked for me, it can work for you too. Of course, I was playing Tourney at the time, so maybe this doesn't really correlate to the situation at hand...

Spawn have you gone over the deep end???
When I first played on the limited server I was farmed to death multiple times.
I hung in there,asked around and eventually joined a clan.
I had nearly the same experience on every server I played on.
If a player gets roughed up on this server and quits then in all honesty he does not belong here.
Why any clan on this server would deny a player is beyond me but there is at least 12 that would jump on a new player.
It really depends on that player if they want to play on this server bad enough.
As I said before this is not a server that any player should go untagged let alone a newbie.
To say we should not landgrab nor war is to say let us go play sims.I would rather not.

Warning Warning, do not attempt to play this server unless you are allready in an alliance, or you will be farmed out of the game...for an enjoyable experience, start in .... or ......
and remain there till you find an alliance.

the other option is,
make it so you cant join the server without the password to an alliance:)
that would stop this also.

Something along those lines would be nice. Say you just signed up for earth, and the server knows you have a new account as we do have the new member under our names on the forums; the game could give you a run down of each server before you join a server.

nowadays you have a lot of browsergames, many with flashy pictures and what not. "competition" is much higher and quite frankly EE isnt a web2.0 game (i'm not saying that it should be).
so why should i even try to understand the game and the community when i get rejected and farmed by the clan instead when i can simply start a better looking game?...

kinda sad that no one realizes something has to change or this game will eventually die...

PEEPS Get off the soap opera. Its part of the game and part of life. There will always be good (like SOLers) and bad (like imag) people. If you take away from what the game is and we all start singing Comb By Ya it wont save this game. The majority of current players would leave if this went to some stupid all explore or limited grabs crap. EE has already started to go that way and its retarded. All things live and then die. Its a part of life. Trying to put a band aid on a severed limb wont save a person. If you want to start- Start right here with the bleeding heart mods and others who just whine and cry all the time that us mean people (anyone not like minded with them) wont play fair. Get a clue.

It is up to Pang and his gang to make it possible,if not a requirement,that every country coming OOP has the ability to contact every clan on the server.
In fact if this actually is critical then no country can come OOP without a clan tag.
Yes I am aware how many games compete with Earth but if you gut the components of this game that most of us enjoy then this game is truly dead.
The only clan I can think of that does not landgrab nor war is Monsters.
