I’d dispute some arguments in there but +1 for effort

You weren’t killed by mods. You were killed by community members. Literally the only thing a mod did was say your original username.

Lol.. Afaik Hash might be the only remaining AoD member left aside from myself. He could likely confirm that or not, would definitely know better then me.

We did hit 100+ members at one point. Tag protection and pacting weren’t really issues thankfully

Personal relevance and greater relevance can be different things as well. My first alliance was AoD and I have pretty fond memories of it and it’s membership. To those on the outside it’s likely barely a footnote

Seawolf had a decent run...

Disagree there. You can blame and hold people accountable for their actions. Yes the game allows it. Doesn’t make it common or acceptable practice. It’s not a solo server, this place is filled with etiquette.

There is nothing that will fix this behaviour short of developer intervention and Pang has said he’s working on it.
If he didn’t already Josie now has a stigma attached to him and he deserves it.

I have zero anger towards you, only disdain. There would be room for civil debate but you would need to engage questions posed to you and acknowledge your actions for what they were. Given how you keep posting paragraphs without actually saying anything, I don’t see it happening.

If you had a point to make you could have come here two months ago and had a discussion. Instead you launch missiles at a country competing for the top spot. Then when you’re called out for that BS you play a victim.

You want some cheese with that whine? Your post inspires persecution because it reeks of idiocy. Really though, it’s your actions that deserve persecution. You did suicide by firing missiles at Monsters for no reason, it provided you zero benefit.

You conveniently haven’t responded to Warster, Cyref, drinks or anyone who’s questioned how your actions accomplished anything you’ve stated. Now you’re fluffing about Mods controlling the game?

1. Wasn’t just mods calling you a suicider, it’s basically everyone if not everyone. You DID suicide here.

2. LaF was your executioner. If it wasn’t LaF it would have been someone else. As Derrick said, you’re an asshole you deserve death. I’d have more respect if you just owned it.

3. You don’t want to be outed then don’t do actions you think you need to hide from. What you did is pretty cowardly and you should be embarrassed.

Don’t think anyone said it was against the rules. It’s just a fluffty, douche, fluffity thing to do and most in the community dislike it and people who do it.

There is a reason you hid behind some fake nick. Why not just do it under your normal one?

You're a "Game Moderator?" No offense, but please show me the rules pertaining to what you are terming Suiciders. Honestly.

This really isn't about suiciding but your response is proving my point, thank you.

Nothing personal.

Here is Earth Empire's welcome page message... again:

"Earth Empires is a free browser based strategy game where you take control of your nation's military and economy. Command your country's military to attack and defend against your enemies. Execute attack strategies to relieve opponents of their resources and land. Strategically invest in technology to outpace the economies of other countries. Ally with your friends or make new friendships by joining a clan. Conduct military operations, govern your country and build your empire." [/quote]


Nobody said it wasn’t allowed by the description. Look at the server your playing on. The alliances dictate the norms and generally accepted practices within this server.

Suiciding would be violating those norms to the point any alliance would kill you.

It’s cute you think you have a point. Do you think you’re offering unknown insight? Telling people something they don’t already know?

Your sad fact is big netting countries are under defended?
Nobody would have ever known that had you not come around and “proved” it here. /sarcasm

I’d say all you accomplished was ruining someone’s netting set but you really didn’t pull that off. I imagine #160 still takes it, you just lowered his finish.

You want to find out why netting countries run with low defence, go look at Gerdler’s suggestions to Pang et al.

100%

Looks like time for #4

Apparently the land kill was a no go

Land kill challenge could be fun

All hail Queen Gerdler

That’s a great idea. Perhaps some more comprehensive guides would be beneficial. You could say even presently applicable.

“How not to lose multiple wars to a bunch of netters”
“Why production matters”
“Target selection for dummies”
“45 minute speed run(tm) setups are boring and unnecessary”

What we don’t need is the “Let’s kill a 5x restart while better targets exist” guide, that territory is well tread.

Lol, quit sharing Dragon’s password around with all of Sof/SoL

9. You read the “clean sweep” thread and then you made the questionable choice to look at it again.

I haven’t read all posts but more mobile notification, not something through IRC. Get attack or sale alerts right through EE.

I like it. That car, apparently 60k +/- seems pretty fantastic to me

This is the only way I can reconcile how fast Dragon is.

Or maybe he’s the machine?

What could possibly go wrong in a system like that?

Not directly killing. Just making people believe his treatment is their best choice when it may do nothing. If they had pursued traditional options initially they may have had a better chance.

I’m playing devils advocate here. It’s possible there is something there. As I said before there are some super compelling stories. I’d like to see further clinical testing following the proper protocols.

I think LT’s point is that there are people forgoing traditional, proven treatments to be treated at Dr. Burzynski‘s clinic. If he’s peddling woo then he’s essentially giving these people a guaranteed death sentence. Preventing something like that from happening is probably worth it for the FDA on principle.

If you want to learn the game join the alliance server.

Kill all civilians or take/destroy all land. Chances are you didn’t kill him unless it was very small scale. Just out of protection kind of timing.

I don’t believe they’re saying it’s a cure all for every type of cancer nor that it will always be effective. Only that in some cases, some percentage of the time it will be. That is obviously a huge, huge win. Given the relatively minor side effects compared to chemo/radiation it could disrupt the industry.

I’m naturally skeptical of this kind of thing but I leave the door open to the possibility. I wouldn’t call someone sheeple (that’s a silly thing to do) the same as I would expect a reasonable person to not always believe all narratives that are spun to them.

This is the info from cancer.gov
https://www.cancer.gov/...am/hp/antineoplastons-pdq

Most of the testing info comes from the developer. I wouldn’t put that on him, he obviously wants the testing done so it can get FDA approval. There seems to be some success from the treatment. In the 10-25% range, however given the conditions of the trials you cannot entirely associate the resolution of the tumors with the other treatments were used in conjunction in those cases.

The cases that are shown off in the film seem compelling. Chemo and radiation failed and the antineoplastons treatment provided by Dr. Burzynski cured the tumor(s).

If you were in the position where modern conventional medicine cannot cure you but you have a chance, why not take it? It seems like that’s the situation many of his patients come from. Or the radiation is going to be so damaging that it’s not worth it.

I’m not sure that this and pot/essential oils should be conflated. It makes sense those could help with symptom relief but not much more.

Thanks for posting KoH, that was a good? (Scary) watch. Makes me want to do some follow up. Then makes me think any follow up will be tainted with disinformation.

Under selling it?

The problem is when you grab the lion you see it’s claws and teeth.

If you think a big country is going to allow you to take 20k acres off them, get 7k back and be ok with the exchange it’s never going to happen.

This post almost makes me wish there was a like button on this forum

.

Hey Gerdler, would you say grabbing has evolved into something dependant mostly on time or skill? I.e. with your same skill but 50% less time how effective could you still be?

Is there a lot of target camping still going on? Was it unnessary with the 250 and that’s why you want 200?

This is how I like my old school YouTube

Canada has some pretty irrational libtards, look at our PM. But this seems pretty hard to justify

Sorry to see you go:( hopefully you'll come back after some time to breathe. You are definitely one of the greats, and will be missed as long as you are gone. You've provided me help, guidance and served as a great example of how to conduct oneself.

GL with the young one and life in general.


Cheers!

Stickied war stats should be a thing. I can't remember the site to view them

That's a lot of butthurt to deal with. See SoL last set...

Abba Zabba

I think you'd make a better land farm then me..

87% accurate

Uh-oh

67258292 <-- Still remember the old icq number

lol, that's awesome. Glad nobody died

👆 This guy speaks truth

1.Your analogy is idiotic.
2.What's reasonable about your war dec? It's also idiotic
3.Good faith in what? Why would you assume that blind sided netters would indulge you 15 days from the end of the set that you just ruined?
4. Expecting anything other then what you got is just a lack of foresight and intelligence

If only there was a spot you could gather with like minded individuals... If only those individuals could seek out other groups looking to do the same thing...

oh wait! That's essentially how the games been running for the last few years. Nope, you just ruin the set for others who enjoy the game differently then you do.

I'm not sure what SoL was trying to get out of this.. Blindsiding an unprepared group of netting alliances does not make for a good war. You could have hit MD/LaF and you still wouldn't have gotten a very good ear out of it.. So hitting that group was just gutless..
