A Glorious Welcome...

...or a festival of flame?

Presumably AD will finally have have some new (or old) faces turning up, since we have this wonderful free round. Now I was thinking about the extremely cliquey little group we have here on AD and how people would react to these new faces, and (correct me if I'm wrong) I have a feeling that it's not the easiest environment to be accepted into.

I'll make this post fairly quick and painless: we're all pricks to people as a matter of course, and despite our dislikes of one another, we are still basically one group. We also know that this group is in decline, and that new faces are really a requirement. So please, don't be a **** to people just because they're 'newbies' in your eyes; let's try to be a little more forgiving, and actually create a welcoming environment.

It's not much to ask, really. You can just take that pent up anger out on Zhukov or something

Im sorry.

Im very very, sorry.

Im sorry for my lack of respect for a group of people, people as Hicks, Zhil, Germania or Focht.
Im sorry I fell like hailing Sid every day. Im sorry I dont think r8 fury didnt 0wn. Im sorry that I dont feel like letting you folks run the little show you do here on AD, in peace.

You see, I dont like people who are full of ****, who sits on their high horse and tell everyone how much they suck, who brag about they so-called 1337'ness and connections.

Im sorry Im not one of those who suck up to you.
Im sorry Im not like Maddix, who despereatly is trying to be one of the lads.
Im sorry I dont always have the patience to spell it out (lo plantman).
Im sorry AlbinoSqrl, for destroying the "playground" witch AD is for some people.
Im sorry Im not respecting the mental "issues" some folks have (lo Germania).
Im sorry that I havent bothered since r3, to get up at 4.55 to launch my fleet, (not to mention farm, get first pick in targets choosing and multi, witch seems to be the case among alot of top players) to have a high-scoring planet in this game. (lo Focht)
Im sorry that I dont always agree with the consensous among the self-stated cool, important people of AD.

To sum it up, Im awfully sorry.
Please forgive me.

Edit: to be fair, Zhil's name is a bit misplaced.. deep down, he is an okey guy.

\o/ me

Tbh, the list of names seems Fury centered originally. How shocking. It's only people who are interested in the past of PA that may actually be interested in the group of people that made Fury what it was. Each person you mentioned (who was Fury) contributed in some way. I would agree that r8 Fury was not the Fury I knew and it should have performed better. Hell, have a real conversation with Sid and you will find that out yourself. There was so many things Sid wanted Fury to be, but it was hard for him to get the time and staff to make it a reality.

Whether you like Sid or not, you have to admit he had a large impact on the game - more so than many other people. Fury was really the most famous dictatorship and Sid was the most famous single alliance person - due in part to that dictatorship. But another reason is that Sid was just that damn good.

Heil Emperor Sid.

However much you may despise the Fury group, it gave some character to the game. Continued bitterness will only go so far. Trust me, I have experience.

And I've just rambled due to being bored. :/

AD has always been this way, its not a new pheneomenom in thea least. But as a public forum anyone can post. And its really not that hard to get respect, you just have to be willing to build it up and not try and jump in and annoy everyone, though that sometimes works too.

Respect is quite easy to get. Just come on and post along with public opinion. Make only safe statements etc.

And the reason you want to is because......?

This is a game, so go and have fun and whocares what folks things. As long as your having fun with your friends everything is all good. But once you start worrying about reputation and the likes your already scrwed. Reputation is not made but more like earned and no matter what you do, in your pursuit of a better reputation you WILL step on someones toes.

You may have a point, however what certain AD posters consider to be a 'newbie' and how much experience this object of their affection has, are not neccessarily connected. I really don't want this thread to turn into some discussion about how IPC are or are not newbies, but they're an excellent example.

Point being that though new people may not be newbies, they may still encounter that sort of idiocy. Conclusion: this has to stop.

I agree to some extent, and rounds played was (part of) the experience I was referring to. Already I have people in my galaxy who played r2-4, or r4-6, but I can well imagine the welcome they'd get should they attempt to post something with some magnitude. This is, after all, why I mentioned IPC as an excellent example.

We can but hope that they weren't all scared off by our horrendously bad attempts at flaming here. I'll encourage you all to stay relatively sane when posting.






Now do you notice what I said?

You can't expect someone to know everything.

I often talk to people who played the first rounds and can't remember much from it. Every player learns more during the round, even top players. They are supposed to otherwise the game would get boring.

This round starts off in a completley new way. Making us all a bit noobish. Next round (round 10) will have some 'minor' changes too. Would make us all a bit noobish again as well.

Im sorry I fell like hailing Sid every day. Im sorry I dont think r8 fury didnt 0wn. Im sorry that I dont feel like letting you folks run the little show you do here on AD, in peace.

You see, I dont like people who are full of ****, who sits on their high horse and tell everyone how much they suck, who brag about they so-called 1337'ness and connections.

Im sorry Im not one of those who suck up to you.
Im sorry Im not like Maddix, who despereatly is trying to be one of the lads.
Im sorry I dont always have the patience to spell it out (lo plantman).
Im sorry AlbinoSqrl, for destroying the "playground" witch AD is for some people.
Im sorry Im not respecting the mental "issues" some folks have (lo Germania).
Im sorry that I havent bothered since r3, to get up at 4.55 to launch my fleet, (not to mention farm, get first pick in targets choosing and multi, witch seems to be the case among alot of top players) to have a high-scoring planet in this game. (lo Focht)
Im sorry that I dont always agree with the consensous among the self-stated cool, important people of AD.

To sum it up, Im awfully sorry.
Please forgive me.

Edit: to be fair, Zhil's name is a bit misplaced.. deep down, he is an okey guy.

maybe read what i posted in another thread:

Quote:

The problem is not really the bitter remarks or the always repeating boring chain of arguments.
Its more like a few other posters stated the sense and informationless posting of ppl who have left or retired from the game and only keep on the boards to post drivel and unbased bs.
If it happens someone turns up and corrects them they purely ignore it and pick on another poster in this or another thread.

Zhukov beeing a prime example here. Especially if you look at his "history" you can see what he actually did. You will find spying and slandering ppl and selfproduction over someones mistake as the only remarkable but i fear not very constructive achievements.
I dont see a single "i did well in pa" or "i helped to form this community" in any of his posts. The only thing he can say is "im bitter im retired i try to insult or demonize others". If thats the essence of why he posts here i can only feel pity for him.
Furthermore i would like to see from you where i multied or farmed during any round. For me it seems like you excuse your totally inept playing skills with a lack of interest in the game, the round you did so well and got up soooo early seems not very spectacular either Zhukov, so all in all you are someone who is just unsuccessfull, or what are you trying to sell us ?
Especially as in r8 you could have had the chance to do so well but you didnt even make it top100 which makes you look like a bitter newbie, prolly thats what you are, a newbie who just gloats on the boards eh ?
But as you might read in my post, the game is not only about Score-values, but also about efford you put in, and tbh the only efford you put into pa was negative. Unlike many others who post here, who have created alliances, helped the community to grow, the sum of your achievments is ? "im a bitter person posting on AD" wow but why bother you are retired now or ? hehehe

Not sure if I'm right in saying this but I don't think Focht was part of T&P until quite late on, Round 6 maybe ? I'm pretty sure ity after the big days of T&P farming.

Did you try for that non Top 250 planet in Round 3 then Zukhov ? Hope you didn't exert yourself too much

The only thing I don't understand in that fountain of bitterness is how exactly Maddix trying to be "one of the lads" ?

Ofc I did not. In 9 out of 10 cases I didnt even wake up to newsie the target. I started 3 weeks out in the game, so when I was ready to attack, all the good targets were long gone. I decided to pick weak targets. That way be quite sure they didnt got defence. Only once did my fleet ecounter hard recistance.
Its funny though Hicks, that you and now focht seems alot more interested in my r3 planet, than I ever were.


Go you. I bet a cookie you and focht will keep interest for my r3 planet
Oh, learn to spell my nick.

P.S I didnt know you were "slow" too Hicks.

That's probably the first thing I've ever seen 95% of AD agree on.

We wouldn't feel the need to bring up your Round 3 planet if you didn't feel the need to continually justify why you weren't trying.
