New Round Same old Same.
Well
First let me tell you some history. At the end of last round I was ready to retire, no big fan fair, no big brass band, just dissapear and never play again (I can hear many rejoicing at this), however i started to idle back on the legion server with friends.
I talked and did nothing of any relevance or which of reason to debate. What I did find though was old mates who I was enjoying playing with. At this point legion had probs with another online game of a similar ilk to pa. Someone had hacked into the game and given a rival alliance major resources to make sure they didn't win. I played and they came out on top.
Out of this a private galaxy was formed through the kindness of monty. We all had our random accounts moved into a private galaxy. Even though we started late a galaxy was born. [VtS] Pink Flamingo's. I still had no account in the PA world or any intentions of playing PA ever again.
This galaxy was a nice, fun place to be. Ppl like vegeta (AKA cyrille), diabz, ronin, myself, boy, monstah, hypron. We also roided like absolute possesed men. Our galaxy finished a wonderful 3rd.
Diabz and Ronin had a idea. If this galaxy could attack like this in a clone, how would we work as a PA gal? We had to make some forced changes due to some members not willing to play pa again, but Planetarion [VtS] Pink Flamingos was born.
A day before the war started - we got to 42nd on score and 8th on roids. I am proud of them, there achievements and there spammy nature in channel. This has been my favorite round and my best galaxy ever (this is no small accolade considering my round 7 gal and I was in JoV).
Today I am here in a situation i never expected or wanted to be in. Nos and Rah dropped in order to get roids. While I understand there has to be winners and losers, I would have prefered the alliances to make it a fair and reasonable battle. Not the one sided affair we see.
As of this moment, my galaxy is attacking as a whole. We are attacking WEET. I am WP and I take no pleasure in this. However such a one sided war is unfair on players of all sides.
I want to thank WP for there time there. They are one of the nicest and homely alliances I have been in. They have been great fun to be with, especially all the ones I talk to in channel, but including my good friends Caliban, Catwoman and anyone who saw me rub my nipples on webcam :-)
I do want to thank my gal for there support and the bg for there hard work this round. But there has to come a point when you make a stand. Our's is we are in favour of war, as long as ppl have a fair balanced war. I know this may seem like whinging, as someone always has to lose. I just wish it had been in a more gentlemenly manner and that a more balanced position had been taken.
Now to the gal members I have just supported me more fully than i could have ever have hoped:
Diabz - you will always be a good mate and i look forward to meeting you real life. Your a good honest guy and its been a pleasure to be in a gal with you and at points command you. Thank you my MoC and leader of the vigilantes splinter cell :-).
Ronin - Your skills as a player are up there with the likes of valvalis, fred and the "true" greats. Your also a damned nice guy and a good mate and a great GC. You will also visit when diabz does :-).
Aliasx - What can daddy say about a son? I was introduced to aliasx round 7 a guy who had been in****ty galaxies and was having ****ty luck. He was active and eager so was invited into my gal. I have seen you develop from a active newb into one of the best roiders and BC's I have ever trained and I have ever commanded. Always there for me, never judgemental and a lot of fun. You are daddies favorite :-). You are my vigilante :-)
Subo - My god subo how long have a known you? heh. Been in every alliance together since round 4. You have been there for me when the chips have been down and the chips have been up. Always there for a chat, always there as a mate unconditionally. One of my best friends in pa and one of my all time greatest players. Everyone says I am the daddy, but you are my guru of marley :-)
gOL - Another player who I have known for many rounds through good and bad times. You have made me realise what a nice, caring guy you are this round. How much you have worked for our galaxy has been superb. You my friend are one of the best.
Ninja - Another player who has impressed me this round. You have shown skill and dedication and you have been there in channel making the galaxy a fun and enjoyable place> You will always be my assasin of choice.
Boy - A quality young guy with excellent playing abilities. I am sorry your round wont allow you to develop as you should be able too.
Hypron - Your a newb a heart, but I wub you. You are there and you attack even though you have had the ****test luck with defences. You havent given up, you have carried on. You are my superstar of courage and conviction.
Monstah - You are anal, but your my anal monstah. Fun to be around and funnier comments come outta your mouth than a comedian. You rock.
To our supporters and close gal friends Fabolous and Azuth. You have been there late at night without a true reason apart from to help a group of friends. You have shown me more than anyone what friendship means. You have been there without remit or reason. You are both welcome to my galaxy party we wil hold and to have beer from me. I really love you both.
This may seem a tad sentimental, but with this post my gal is Standing up what we believe in and we will roid/skirmish/kill and have fun. For that respect my galaxy, respect our bg and our friends who have followed us and as the carpenters would say its only just begun.....

How on earth can you sit and say that weet vs nar is an unfair war after sitting through 3 weeks of narweet vs vvomm.
This has nothing to do with a fair fight - Hypocrite!

okay side from the obvious score/roid difference:
what is the difference between:
vvomm vs weet/nar
weet vs vvomm/nar
tbh im fighting everyone but I just felt like pointing out that things arent exactly picture perfect as others try to make them.

no really - while i understood that the vvomm war was unfair i have very few friends on or in that block, I knew it was unfair, however i always expected the blocks to break. I know after 9 rounds thats a naive view to hold, but that is what i believed.
Also VVoMM is not dead, thoguh its chances of winning the round are low.
Also I know it may sound like a hippocrite, but at least i am learning
We cannot all be right all of the time, but the last few days have been fun and thats good
Also do not read this thread as me being morally right, I am far from that - it was more a protest at the dumping of NaR is more of a move I associated with Round 7 PA and my own experience in my alliance at the time.
All we can do is do what we think is right in any given situation.

What I am really interested in is what you guys will do in a week when you have no opposition.
While this sort of politics may seem "normal" you have all shown how gutless you are when it comes to prooving yourself.
Bring back round 1 alliances I say

me? ill have opposition all through the round, ill be attacking any galaxy who ive not got m8s in hehe,
and yes it would be nice to see alliances who can act with a decent amount of independance without having to group up just because they arent good enough to win alone, or are afraid someone else will group up. not likely though.

kewl
I agree completely - by the time broke off from nar they were strong enough and active enough to compete with Nar/vvomm and they knew it.
All actions that have then happened from that point are symptomatic of 4 big alliances who actually hold all the players (lets not be naive enough to think that Nar/VVoMM was a equal split considering that I know wp has 300 members alone).
They dropped NaR for 2 reasons (because this block will not and cannot hold).
First reason is roids. VVomM had dried up immensely so they took a block not comparable in size and dumped it. Hardly actions of alliances which can perceived as "winninG".
The second reason was to ensure that the winning places come from those galaxies.
Now while such actions may have led to a fair fight in past rounds in current conditions a block that makes up perhaps 600 players of the highest score and activity (VVoMM may have 50% active alliance players after dying) is little more than a execution due to the spineless actions of the hc's involved.
I am still happy i protested> I am still happy i am playing the way i am playing with my friends. I hope weet aren't trying to convince themselves they are right or they are "owning" cause to my mind they are little above cowards.

Read the thread and then the replies.
Some of it was sorta PD, but I decided since they all agreed they deserved mention.
Also for those saying this is about my ego or for me to be praised your wrong> It was never the intention for that but for the discussion subsequent.

Single alliances fighting each other is more fun I must admit, all powerblocking does is increase the scale of the war, and decrease the time it takes for someone to "win".
The way I see it is this. In past rounds Ive played, been in alliances and achieved a decent score. I know this round that I'm too far behind to acheive a top 250 position, so all I have left to gain is the FUN of playing the game.
I will get more fun out of being the underdog and trying to help and fight for a side which is "statistically inferior" because I enjoy a challenge.
There's no fun in one-sided wars, where in the end all there is is stagnation.
This is why, if the alliance politics were up to me, I'd shake things up a little.
Its about time the single alliances tried to standup for themselves and win independantly. Thats probably easier said than done, but its about time people started taking risks because we all know, "Who dares wins" :P

Why the **** can't you guys keep your circle jerk to your galaxy forums instead of spamming this piece of **** on AD?

After seeing this thread being posted - deleted - posted - deleted - posted CLOSED - deleted and then returned to AD and moved to PD I find myself with no other way then explaining in this thread without resorting to flaming or name calling why I believe this thread is utter nonsense and should not be allowed on ANY board but GD.
This thread is in my believe not aimed at promoting a planetarion or alliance related discussion. But to point out how supposedly 'great' you and your galaxy were. You have dedicated a relativly small piece of your thread to actual planetarion related issues. The biggest part is naming your galaxy members, telling your galaxy history how it came to be and such. I could accept this kind of thread in a circumstance where you desribe your galaxies history to point out the reasons how this galaxy came to be and then overlay this with the current events and say how this reflected upon your galaxy making the reaction of your galaxy to these current events clearer for the reader to understand.
In fact your entire post seems to revolve around the 'fact' that you and your galaxy have been ill treated, the entire essence of supposed discussion lies in the line 'they dropped us for roids', yet that is the most underappreciated arguement in your entire post.
After thanking your galaxy as a whole you continue to name your members one by one attaching a personal message, I feel that this would have been better suited to IRC or perhaps a private forum. You have in my opinion raised no valid discussion, I see this post as an attempt to make yourself look 'good' and goes in line with 'FAnG pride' and other threads you have so frequently posted over the rounds.
After pm'ing Karmulian about why your post was moved from deleted threads to AD again I got a not so pleasant reply and a 5 minute ban from these forums. I'll admit I was accusatorive in my initial statement to him but I suppose that's just the way I express myself. After realizing that I was adding to an already existing discussion that was presently going on with the moderators and doing nothing but throwing oil on the flames I apologized for the way I communicated my opinion to him.
Though you could work on your own manners as well Karmulian.
I do however know that many moderaters agree on me on this issue, considering the treatment my 'mocking' thread received from two of them and when I politely mailed them asking them to remove 'both' our threads since they had no place on AD it was so done.
This thread is not intended to raise a valid discussion as is seen by the first few replies, to me and I am sure many others it is nothing but an attempt to satisfy your own ego and get recignition for your actions.
I usually don't post like this but I feel that I will gain nothing by posting in my regular style where I sharply put things to a confrontation or mock them in order to show the lunacy of them as I did in my other thread. I know you like to refer to me as a 'cave troll' but as I have always said my arguements may be harsh but they are true none the less.
These are the reasons I am 'against' this post, I am not a moderator of this forum, and apparantly being a moderator and making a decision isn't enough either these days.
I felt after all the nonsense this post has gone through it needed some decent wording. I have tried to stay out of personal attacks even though I feel you are inviting them with this post, I will try not to reply again even though I'm sure someone will post something so utterly warped that I will feel the urge to correct them.
So in case any of you were wondering, this is the essence most of my posts hold, making a one liner is very much more time consuming and it says the same. For instance I was very tempted to remark that 'Rumad is stroking his own dick in public again', which would have said exactly the same namely that: 'this post is not about a planetarion discussion but about and ego'.
But considering the trouble this thread (I was tempted to say 'your ego' here) has caused every one I think it was necessary to clearly post this.

Where's Parra's thread gone then? It was far better.

Well Im just disappointed that nobody replied to my post, It seems I never say anything worth replying to.
Hence why I dont reply to posts very often. I suppose I could resort to personal insults to get myself noticed, but thats not in my nature.

To be frank (you can all remain who you were before) this thread is a prime example of the type of mental masturbation that should be banned from the forums. Of course it's perfectly allowable within the rules of the forums as they currently are (and could probably be justified on either AD or PD). Perhaps someone (I'm gazing directly at Mr. Parra'only doing it cos it's rumad'cida here) could pm an admin setting forth their opinion on this overall issue in a rational and reasonable fashion?

Because you and parracida are widely known across the PA community for your generous charity work, not to forget your constant benign enlightenment of those less fortunate to be sure to be sure. If we banned everyone who was disliked by 50% or more of PA in the end it would only be the old fury execs debating on here! Oh wait........

Firstly it is PA related, Views on alliance blocks, views on my galaxy, and debate around the make up of blocks.
I conceed that some of it was related to PD and some was related to AD. GD I disagree with.

You have dedicated a relativly small piece of your thread to actual planetarion related issues. The biggest part is naming your galaxy members, telling your galaxy history how it came to be and such. I could accept this kind of thread in a circumstance where you desribe your galaxies history to point out the reasons how this galaxy came to be and then overlay this with the current events and say how this reflected upon your galaxy making the reaction of your galaxy to these current events clearer for the reader to understand.

Wrong again. This isn't a promotion thread it is a debate, debates are prompted by views. I have views on blocks and the ****ty nature they have taken round after round. I have supported this view since round 8 and i see no reason to change MY VIEWS or MY OPINIONS Admittedly it was some related to teh development of why i was continuing to play, because thats about how I have changed my views of what planetarion is about. The response was to show that I realised PA is more about FUN than any of the bs i ever tried to propagate as a alliance hc (everyone has a spin). In this instance my views are purely about what i see as a way out for ppl who have no interest in playing pa how it should be played.

Next another wrong answer. We could have gone total weet and probably ended T10. We never.

If it was about me looking good i would do a better job and I have conceeded some is PD and some AD so i wont repeat again about that. My views are nothing that I haven't expressed already to certain people.
As for historic posts We all have "spin" in alliances so i will not go over old ground> The FAnG threads may have been propaganda, but were valid at the time of posting for what was needed on an alliance basis.

I approached karmulian to look at the thread. I have conceeded taht due to the mixed gender of this thread that some was PD and some AD. Deletion was unfair and so was closure. I never even asked for the thread to be reopened or undeleted.

I don't see why you would ask for the thread to be closed. Its hardly a abusive or derrogatory thread. Everyoneis allowed opinions ro so i was led to believe...

Trolling is the first response of the illiterate.. Its nice to see you can actually write something beyond "blow me".

Everyone is allowed views. That is your view. However I have seen the debate that follows and I hold the thread to be valid and relevant. Whether it is ad/pd is a grey area. as for me and my ego, I hardly post anymore, except when i see something of interest. This is/was my protest, I didnt realise PA had gone to the extent that only the few may have the views.
I paid my money to play imo I am allowed as much right to discuss and debate as anyone who plays. If you dont agree with it dont agree. If you don't like my style f posting don't read, but I have a view and i should be allowed to discuss and debate accordingly.

I don't see why anyone should be banned for posting a thread like this. The thread in itself however should be removed. Banning is almost never an acceptable option because the people you ban are not 'just' forum users, they are an active part of the community and banning them will resort to many ugly-ness-in-pm.
And whereas I must confess I am biased about rumad and his threads I'd like to state that I am completely unbiased in my judgement regarding threads like these. You might not think it, but usually I'm after a laugh more then to just troll :-)

It was merely a counter point, I don't actually think banning an acceptable option for anything but the most blatant trolls and spanners. The thread in itself breaks no rules and there actually is a possible discussion in it. Although I would tend to agree that the tone of the initial post is inflammatory, accusatory and implies some sort of negligence on the behalf of the rest of PA and an inherent superiority in the actions supposedly (I have no idea whether the thread is true or not) taken.

Pathetic. On the part of the thread, the poster and the person responsible for moving it back here.
