Thanks, I honestly want to help push forward more of a players hitting players culture again, but not like the GOAT of Earth up there is talking about.

I seriously have 0 Ill will towards you. I only want the #1 missile spot if you can click the profile thing beside my name.

That is... not a great reason to apologize for it and then keep going. 😂 Never change.

My spy center tells me I can perform zero more operations today, and that this effect resets every 24 hours. It would be nice if it would have a countdown timer like the military screen does for PSd units. I really want to know how many tanks I need to keep ABing this pank.

How do you figure? I've pledged to help small alliances that are being attacked by larger alliances on this server.

In response, M4D killed me 25v1.

I guess that means you were all planning on being the bigger alliance killing smaller alliances, otherwise why would you kill me?

Because you aren't a smaller alliance of noobs getting bullied, you're a cheating lying jackass who crams his face into every single thread to ride your hobby horse. I am just mad I missed the KR on your first country.

2 weeks ago I was being nice to you if you'll recall.

I used to be an FA officer for NA, so I've been around with llaar for a long time to. I also used to be in weedylar - check my profile I finished second in Team tagged weedylar - they are fun folks too.

Blackhole is not the person you want to join. You'd be better off just you and me tagging up and playing.

There are a ton more PC commies this set, maybe seeing some do well last set inspired people? And now the market sucks.

You guys have been posting publicly about your plans. You're just posting conflicting info, so I'm trying to get clarification.

Josey previously said he was warring the entire server.

M4D stated they have pacts with a few alliances, and are going to landgrab everyone else.

Neither of those posts listed each other as allies.

But, in a M4D thread, Josey stated that he was rooting for M4D in their war against a few alliances. But... presumably Josey and the suiciders are going to hit M4D, just like everyone else? So... I'm asking for clarification. Are they at war? Are they aligned? Their posts are confusing.

Again, none of your fluffing business. You are trying to connect dots that don't exist. M4D is a new alliance of old players, as an entity we did not exist before this set.

You have not failed in communicating anything. You have simply become a tired broken record. Like TAN, I am a recent returnee. I appreciate you bringing more activity to the boards, but maybe try a little less monomania, and when the owner/admin of the board tells you directly that you are crossing a line, continuing to whine and justify the line crossing behavior does the opposite of helping your cause.

To a newcomer it seems like you are coming into a frat house with some welcoming people and some others that would just as soon you not be here. You all know each other so well it is intimidating to new people. Maybe some type of a forum that is for new people to kinda “check in” get a feel for the game without getting farmed to oblivion. Still don’t really feel comfortable and would never try one of the harder servers like alliance, or team.

BlackHole, question for you: How long have you been playing this game? I ask because I've been playing since like...2003ish? And it's ALWAYS been big alliances picking on small ones. That's just the nature of the game. Unfortunately, as the player base diminished, that sort of behavior deterred newer players from sticking around.

But what you are rightly pointing out as toxic is a part of the game that's always been there. Bigger clans using smaller ones as landfarms has always been the case. When I first started out, and before I joined PDM, I too was a landfarm. Sucks, but that's just how it is.

Confirmed, TAN is a landfarm.

This retal policy we have at M4D was the alliance standard retal policy for over a decade, and tags that tried to enforce differences from it (land:land for example) frequently warred. I made no bones about playing this way in Express last set either, literally the exact same philosophy. It's what this game functions best as - a true everyone vs everyone environment.

You seem like a cool guy, welcome back! I think you might have gotten roped into a situation you didn't agree to though. Check with your leader Leto. He seems to be setting the stage to bully small clans like Stone and Rage, while being aided by the self proclaimed suicides with Josey and co.

Makes sense cause Josey and Leto go way back together in PDM.

It's a shame what they did to pdm, leaving it in shambles.

NA and PDM were besties for a long time. When we were getting gangbanged by SOL's coalition repeatedly, PDM were basically our only allies. So literally everyone in M4D goes way back with PDM.

Now that I think of it, is Pally still around?

Anyhow given the history I've laid out for you, I think you can appreciate that I am happy where I am right now and not willing to make any changes to my POV based on AT threads.

Related, if you don't know about it, find someone to fill you in on the sordid history of RD. Literally every tag is dirty, they infiltrated all of them and cheated inside them.

So bring it, I guess?

VicRattlehead,

JW&CO has no intention of suiciding M4D. Not in the cards. End of story. Nor do we have any pacts with M4D.

That said, there is no reason why M4D shouldn’t cleanse the Server of viruses. With extreme prejudice.

Well that's good to know. Good luck in your fluff stirring then.

I mean, technically I am former LaF, but you are going back over 20 years for that. I am in M4D because Llaar emailed me out of the blue for a reunion set, and I said "sounds fun." I am also former DWA, SOF, EliteZ, RED, NA, SOL, and probably some smaller ones I forgot.

Any affiliation we have with JW&Co is certainly news to me.

Also, I live on the East Coast of the US, and last time I played team I was with weedylar, 2nd place the last set I netted, so not dark or light on team either.

FWIW our Discord has tons of people telling basically the same story as me. "Hey, we're back? Cool, I'll come back for the squad." NA was great fun and it's nice seeing a lot of the old crew.

K.I.S.S. Establish a server that incorporates all of your new changes and a server based on the original earth 2025. I would bet we could get some youngin's (a new generation) to bump up the player numbers.
It is primarily the old players looking to change the game to fit their current life style.....you are not going to bring in new, young players like that.

Are you saying that the changes themselves or bad, or just that the changes are designed to reduce time commitment/effort?

I disagree that changes are bad. Look at something like Diablo. D3 still had a thriving community across multiple platforms as recently as...whenever Hades came out and I switched to that. The reason is the "seasons" architecture where every reset the meta changes because of tweaks, and occasional complete re-works.
