LCN is #11

Toon was one of my fav's.

I'm in teams:)
I am playing. I just simply wanted to share an idea I've had for a long time and RedX gave a perfect opportunity to show why it would matter.

I am not.

I simply giving examples, that have occured, I haven't played allaince since the LCNreunion set. and I have no plans too. My focus is on generating NW in real life.

Of course not, if some crappy group of players wanted to unite to suicide on a peaceful netting clan, then do it, and you'd probably get wiped the way imaginary numbers did when they went after Monsters years ago. (If I remember correctly, Imag got the FS, and Monsters killed 30+ Imaginary numbers members before a single monster got killed. It was almost a tag kill before imag's first kill. There's a great meme out there about it (before we knew what a meme was.)

But, you'd have a tag, and you'd be responsible to the whole server and it's poliitics.
vs an unmarked person who isn't.

And all vetting means is a 1 time, thing, you get yor intial 5 together, they're legit players, your tag is made permanent until you no longer have 5 players.

For example if I brought LCN back we'd get LCNostra vetted as our tag on a one time basis.
if after 3-4 sets we're down to 3-4 players. we lose our tag.

So then now you RedX can't leave protection unless some tag says, we'll take the chance RedX won't suicide on Monsters and if he does, we owe MOnsters the reps per our agreements.

Or you can create a war tag, and the other allainces can treat you as a normal alliance.

What you can't do is hide untagged, and hit someone,

Alliiance is for alliances (5+)
Team is for 5 or less.
Individuals can play on the individual server.

With bots being the source of land now, and not new players, this is a very easy thing to setup, as the mechanics are mostly already in place with coop.

Let me attempt a response.

I have always advocated, that just as coop server does this, that on alliance server, no one can leave protection, unless a member of a vetted alliance.

Said alliance should be required to have a minimum of 5 members. ( I would have said 10-15 back in the day.)

You want to start a new alliance, establish it with the server mod, as a recognized alliance. That way each and every alliance, has to take on responsibility for their members. This eliminates most of the suiciers, as they'll be know for who they are since we can now have player history and accomplishments accessible.

If you're a new person to the game, get recruited by a vetted alliance.

Let allianice be about alliance vs alliance, individual suiciders have no part of the game. That was established long ago with when RD went from untagged to tagged.

We have mechancics, we didn't have back then to enforce this,
The history of the game, shows that's how this server has evolved.
And this would be for the good of the game.


Now, a group of suiciders could all choose to band together into one alliance. Then the other alliances would have the choice to address it or ignore and hope. But then at least they have the choice, vs a single person going after a group.

with alliances being smaller it's much more difficult to take out a suicider these days. I once took out the whole top 10 in a tourney game, so a friend could win (Iris from NLS). many of our alliances are now at or less than 10. So I think this issue is even more important. LCN had an spy op teams, that would take out any suiciders, thus limiting damage to the alliance, and we often helped others like Monsters when they had suiciders. but you could that at 120 members, you can't do that at 10.

I'm just saying the history of the server argues for this, and the game mechanics are now possible. And with the smaller alliances, this is more important to address this than ever.






Suicers can go suicide in Primary, where it's all 1 v 1.

Please explain how 1 person, carrying and executing a multi reset grudge via suicide is healthy and good for the game.

You Can't.

WoW,

Carrying grudges a decade later is about as pathetic a life as I've ever seen.

That's some intense loneliness being expressed through the game in a negative way.

I do think there is a place for the game mods to say, that hey, these actions are a detriment to the game.

Who all of the old clowns are joining?

LOL hey Ninong!

hmm

Can't believe an inactive thread can last this long

Suicidal was correct.

It was as much about growing/building an alliance, the politics, building a community as it was the game itself.

The game itself was simply a vehicle. It's not what made things great.

Empy= Iscode

There's always one.

When One leaves the game
another arrives like magic,
except it is real.

HI,

Signed,

One of the so many.

Especially when the room got to full, and the ICQ thread split.

I thought we were in an era of negotiations now?
Send me your best offer.

The Cursing was epic in the 90's.

Epic games require Epic Cursing

So how does one become a Premium Patron and what does one benefit?

Also what’s the point of being a Patron if I have all these ads getting in the way of my gameplay experience?

Please explain

Galleri,

How much you willing to pay?

Do we have something exciting happening?

Actually no, I posted the same thing when they were first being discussed.



and yeah I figured it was time for my once a year snark post. This was the best I had.

Good names here.

Tell me I'm wrong.

In another community. I need 6-8 volunteers:)

Let me know if interested.

There is nothing to gain from a civil war.

Every Modern Country that has gone through one has had a devestating drop in per capita income, and a complete reduction on lifestyle as the electric grids, roads, and other systems of modern convience were destroyed.

It'd be worse here.

This whole rush to buy guns and ammo and call for a civil war, is simply based on fear.

The world is changing, and civil war won't bring back the past,
it will only destroy the future of everyone's kids and grandkids.

I think we will make it though this ok,
Social Media is amplfying it,
But there are too many people in power, who will lose power, if the above were to happen.

At some point in time, the Republican party will move back towards reclaiming the moderates, and when it does, it will align both parties into the prevention of what we are seeing publically said today. Right now the Republican Party is relying on all those who think this way for votes.

I also believe that Younger black males, and significant subsets of the hispanic population will eventually move more towards the Republican Party, and that we have already seen this begin.

As that happens it will give a second reason for the R's to move to the middle, and away from the groups pushing this apotlyptic agenda.

While I think all out civil war will be avoided, I do think we will see more OKC type event in the future, and for a while a continued increase in mass shootings, both in number and in scope.

We are in for a few bumpy decades. That is for sure. We've lanced a boil, its ugly, its going to take time to heal. But we'll be better on the other side.

Goofy is correct,

THe fluffshow here is nothing compared to the gaslighting, cursing, coalition based vitriol of 98-99.
There is no fluffshow here in comparison.

Some of the stuff written would make Trump Blush.

I will say we are in a dangerous time. That as a country, we've forgotten the we, and its all about me.

That we as a whole, have forgotten to what it means to sacrifice for the other.

We've gotten to spoiled.

Yes we do have anarchists on the left and supremacist's/fascists on the right. There are elements in both groups that want a civil war.
Yes, they have done a masterful job in the last 20 year, of promoting their messages via social media and other outlets in a way that cloaked their true intent.
Yes, a lot of people have bought into those messages, and slowly inched towards those radical views.



But if you ask someone, Do you want our country to be for your grandkids as it is, or a version of syria or Venezuela, most being to realize what they are saying will do to the kids and grandkids.

But being from Rural Oklahoma, I see this crazy fluff on my feeds, and its not good.

We are in a dangerous time. I think we'll come through it, but I'm not 100% certain we will.

I'm hoping that 25 years of experience in learning how to communicate online, through this game, will allow some of us on this community to help others learn how to communicate.

That's a good group

My 2nd favorite was in a mid-sized game.

Sigil of Omega had approached with a spreadsheet that showed a demo MB resller could do well.
No one had ever done this before.

This is the only instance where I could be accused of violating the rules. as I had to go work some church camps.

So I did commie wufbam! style race to 12k acres,
I converted to DMBR, (before theo existed.)
Sigil finished out the set, when I went to work at camp and we ended up top 5.

And the questions we got when people did ops on us were hilarious.

What are your favorite memries non alliance game related.

Tell me yours,

So mine was back in 2000/2001, there was a major introduction of new code/goverenments etc that led to a 6 week reset for the 1b game.

Tencho
Chump
and every top players in 1a, played 1b that set.

And yes, there were alliance members in there of the top players. Supporting them.

I hid out, I got fat, and stocked early, ending up midsized in land, but left alone. I stayed off the boards where everyone was trying to figure out who was whom. I outperformed my abilities.

and I jumped into 2nd place. (and would have finished 2nd or third). And No one knew who I was, and assumed I was someone I was not.
I got hammered with a ton of GS's all the way down to 20th.
Techno dropped land, and had his buddies nuke him dead. to win. and avoid that fate and keep the win.

It was brutal, but fun.

I won the small games, and midsized games, but that was the closest I came to winning the large game.

This is like a diary I'd read of a dead soldier in a video game.

If I ever build something like that, you're hired:)

Hey Hawk

No life here.

Derrick and I have not seen eye to eye often.

But I will gladly say, anyone who attacks another person on this forum, for who they are, who they love, for their race, religion, politics etc....I have no respect for.

I didn't see what happened, but as a community, we need to show we've been dealing with these issues for 20+ years online and how to have a positive, community full of differences of thoughts and opinions. UNlike the world around us, that just discovered this world the last few years.

Derrick, Im' sorry for what happened.
Please go stand for yourself and others. And anytime anyone on here attacks you for it, you have an ally.

Regards,

Servant

A typo is what led to me getting married,

Ninong, msg sent

My crazy ex Laura, lives in LA. How did you know?

I've been praying for the city ever since she moved there.

I have friends in Cedar rapids

They had 100MPH winds for 45 minutes,
and a top burst of 138 I believe.

(straightline winds.)

Just because an alliance prefers to net, does not mean its not the top alliance when it comes to war.

When it comes to war, LAF is no 1. Laf has been number 1 for years. I can't remember a time since Son Goku's Leadership that LAF hasn't been the top warring alliance in the game. Someone please prove me wrong.

LAF also happens to be the best netting alliance in the game.

And as much as it pains me to say it, they're the best alliance in the history of the game.

Yes, LAF started off as a bunch of pansy ass netters. But over time they grew teeth. And under Hanlong/Son Goku, they combined the arts of diplomacy, netting, and war to become the dominant alliance.

Chevs, your poll is lacking.
I expect better of you:)
