hi VGN

So its been brought to my attention by undisclosed sources that you recently kicked a member out of your alliance for idling in #excessum - and changing the topic to

* Topic is 'This is not a public alliance channel.'

[actually, all they did was make the topic red and bold - you know how girls like pretteh colours, not that this is about a girl]

From which you concluded that it is the alliance's public channel, that the person in question must be high up in the eXcessum command to have topic-changing-privelages, is spying on you, and kicked them out of VGN.

Care to comment? Gotta admit I'm gutted - was hoping this would happen to the likes of jer/CT, dreamy/urwins or appoco/pateam - but no, only to poor <said person>

On a side issue, we've just realised wishmaster has been awol for like.. 2weeks now and that we need to start doing some politics. Please contact our new HC of politics - jupp^afk - if you're interested (don't bother if you're VGN HC).

Anyway, back to pm with jer about important pa matters.

Re: hi VGN

Given that practically everyone in #excessum is an op, wouldn't it make sense that it's highly likely <whoever it is> would get topic changing spy powa?

Re: hi VGN

Wait! Was that the token "you haven't been around so you don't know what it's like!" argument?

Re: hi VGN

It's much more satisfying to complain about it here though

Re: hi VGN

Hope you do! by the way, I also find it quite amusing that you kicked just about the only person in the channel that definitely wouldn't spy for me (and thus us) - as anyone that knows annie or me would probably be able to tell you. Was only a month or two back that she had my pnick suspended cos i was an unbearable twat with her.

How is the round going anyway sjimmy? your average score sucks even more than our's

As soon as my high amps become all but redundant and eXcessum has won the round, I might well be tempted to give ace my login information. So if I were you I'd put £20 on tick 600-700. Maybe edge your bets a little with £10 on 700-800.

Re: hi VGN

something you'd know a hell of a lot about eh CBA?

How was I owned anyway? as qebab stated, eXcessum has been around far longer than VGN. And besides, a good alliance playing one round is still better than a shit alliance playing 10. And furthmore, as qebab pointed out, sjimmy's comment has 0 to do with the thread? (unless you guys actually think my comment about pming jupp was serious. Only added that cos ~3mins before I posted, "<jupp^afk> we need to do more politics" happened).

Sadly, I guess I've just owned myself by replying to your post about someone else owning me I've never quite got the hang of this forums malarky. Like no matter what you post you're leaving yourself open to silly comebacks, like someone quoting this paragraph and going "so just stop posting then??" - which someone would definitely do, had I not pointed it out. But perhaps now they won't - though now that I've pointed that out, maybe you will.

Re: hi VGN

i thought people always ignored CBA's posts. ><

geuss i was wrong, and i already apoligised for claiming we were their longer then you. gl with the rest of the round though.

will see if you're still their next round with you're "better" alliance.


and that comment was more about you(in my eyes new ally) judging an alliance that has been around for so long. Maybe we also had other reasons but that never occured to you aparantly. Wich are still none of you're business.

Re: hi VGN

Prove me wrong in the following rounds that excessum will be around as an alliance again and ill take that part back aswell.

i could keep #VGN alive on irc aswell and let everyone idle in their and call it a community(wich we actually are)
wouldnt cost me(or anyone else in vgn) much effort, trying to get vgn in form again each round actually is an effort.

and i never ment any disrespect to excessum members im just a sceptic as in the past rounds a lot of allies have come and went away again. These days i just have to see it first before i believe it.

eXcessum is a one round thing and we are proud of it. now how is that related to annie being kicked from a channel that existed 5 years before the alliance was created?

Do I get no respect??! you have no idea how much hard work its taken to keep #excessum alive - especially when JC/others quit I mean ok, in the last year we've kinda opened the floodgates as far as letting people in goes, but meh! Those previous 6yrs... a lot of shed blood, tears and sweat.

If we kept the same hc team then eXcessum would easily be able to keep playing... some ppl would leave for ascendancy/eXi/etc, but we'd have a constant 40-70 membership. However, aye, think I'm right in saying most of the current HCs won't do it again after this round, and we won't recruit non-excessum hcs to keep the dream alive (like VGN do often).

So there's an early declaration for you: eXcessum will disband at the end of the round (unless wishmaster loses his job and penis).

not only are you discounting the myriad problems you'd encounter (you not being able to take a joke for instance) that could damage your alliance over the course of multiple rounds with people getting fed up and leaving, but excessum not being able to keep hold of these HC's/players is the point i'm making. it's something alliances like vengeance have been able to do, and in my view it's worthy of merit.
i'm not saying that keeping your tag in the top 50 for the rest of eternity is any kind of meaningful achievement. just that longevity is certainly a factor. f-crew would probably be a better example of this given their near constant progression round on round.


when i used to visit #excessum there were about 10-15 active people (maximum). where exactly did these 40-70 members come from?
He's talking about hc's you stupid idiot so please come back when you have learned to read

#excessum is small cos we keep it that way by only letting ppl join/stay that fit our requirements. Though there are one or two exceptions to that nowadays. But what does that have to do with making an alliance with 40-70 members? This round only wish did any kind of active recruitment and we hit nearly 60. If people like mitre, jupp, alki,etc joined in...

As for us surviving problems, I'd say eXcessum hc is by far and away "closer" than any other hc team in pa history. That would kind of help us to get through the myriad of problems? or not? I am completely sure that if we wanted to play every round, we could. Cba explaining that further - you need to know the channel and the people in it to understand better.

At the end of the day - sure VGN deserve a hell of a lot of credit for playing every round - my comment above was merely a counter-retort to sjimmy slagging us off. I do wonder though, if VGN stopped playing pa, would they still exist as a community in years to come? doubt it (as in where people consider it their "home" on the internet).

tell me 3 nicks of ppl in current command (including bc/dc team) of VGN who haven't been VGN before (for at least 3 rounds) and i'll grant you this claim, for now i'll just call your bullshit nothing more than every other bullshit propaganda thread there is on AD. In all of which somehow the same few nicks pop up as frequent posters as they are all full of their own bullshit it seems.

You misunderstood me - I wasn't slagging off VGN. Bringing in new officers/hcs is 100% necessary to survive as a proper alliance round in round out. That will not happen in eXcessum. Everyone that could possibly be a hc is a hc at the moment, and that won't change in future rounds.

I'd go as far to say all our current hc are good mates in real life as well as online - though not all hcs have met one another (apart from me! \o/). I would sooner disband eXcessum than have one of them leave and be replaced by someone else. And therein lies the #1 reason why eXcessum will not play multiple rounds.

well i considder it home, and seeing _are_ is still paying for the servers etc even though he doesnt even play pa anymore(expensive servers imo), plus some of the core people have been in vgn since it started i do believe we would still be around. I dont think _are_ could ever pull the plug on his little baby.

And about teh hc thing, out of the current hc most have been in vgn for ages and are considered VGN for live, i cant remember where we had a "stranger" in. I left for wp, the round wp won to have a break from vgn for 1 round. thats basicaly it.

Tbh i dont slag people of i try to treat them with respect wich is hard some days especially today. Sorry if i offended anyone

ty for youre time.
" lets just say its none of youre business why she got kicked out "

Well you couldnt even tell ME why I was kicked out. Im sure there's some people out there agreeing on the way you kicked me was very immature. As VGN is spose to be a proper and professional alliance.

I used 4 days to find out why I was kicked out. But you only ignored me, even if Amnion told me to talk to you about the reason.

I've been on and off in #excessum for a little less than a year. The reason I left twice had to do with some personal problems between me and newt.
Recently when I got back there they told me that they ( Excessum ) was going as an Alliance. I dont find it fair that I was kicked cause I was in another channel. I have nothing to do with Excessum as an alliance, not spying or anything. I do not like do be accused of stuff I didnt do, just so you know it. And yes, I did paint the topic red because of all the random joins the channel had. Dont see how this can be a big matter though.

Reason seems simple enough to me. VGN set a few rules preround about our internal affairs and you didn't abide by these rules. Beside that i believe any command has the right to reject/kick anyone without giving a reason to that, or any other, person for the good of their alliance.

Re: hi VGN

Was one of these pre-round rules "No idling in any other alliance's public channels"?

Feeling sore that you weren't welcomed into the "community" or so? Though now you'll go "I never wanted to be there anyway, shit channel" and stuff so I'll retract my comment.

If a hc ****s up or goes inactive then they'll get demoted - but that won't happen - this round. Thanks for emphasising my point on why we're a 1 round only alliance though <3

would a HC agree with this? sounds like an awesome community there if you feel you can go about kicking members as and when you feel like it without giving them a reason why, or a chance to stand up for themselves.

Well i didnt ignore you, as thats not my style, i have been extremely busy past days and i have been missing a lot of people on irc(not only you) and no it wasnt only cause of the channel.

@newt : as hc i dont agree with influence about kicking someone without giving a proper reason(power abuse ?). Every person holds his own opinion on such matters.

@furball : no

Yes you did Sjimmy, dont lie to me. I know you've been there when I've highlighted you for like 100k times. And not just you, but the whole VGN. Then FINALLY someone managed to answer me. After 4 days.


Edit: " And it was not just because of the channel "
Then you should seriously tell me why. I deserve to know.

I've NEVER heard of the rule " internal affairs " from VGN.
When I was told the rules, that was not one of them.

Ill tell you on irc.

And no i didnt ignore you, i even pmed you back once maybe even twice(cant remember) but you didnt repsond but seeing my crazy working hours i was on when most euro people were sleeping anyways.

I know certain people ignored you but thats cause they didnt knew the whole story and didnt want to get involved in something they hardly knew anything about.

ow and i counted 7 highlights but my comp crashed a few times so i could have missed a few.

You were all but booted out. Admittedly we did invite you in the first place since on the forums you're cool - sadly you can't turn that into IRC coolness Though that said, you were alright the first time round - then you left irc for ages, when you came back you were a right boring tit. But yeh, it seems to be a trend amongst forums people. So used to having time to think out well-prosed insults/witticisms/one-liners that you kinda struggle with the ol' flowing chat and continuous wit thats needed on IRC.

Back on topic (or the second topic of this thread at least) - I won't deny I belittled VGN. But as I've said before - they mocked us, I insulted them back. Its how the forums works isn't it?
