Re: [=V= ][Official] ViruS Annoucement [=V=]
Very sad to hear of ViruS' departure from Planetarion, especially considering they were the first 'real' alliance I ever joined, way back at the start of R3.
Good luck in your future exploits guys.

Re: [=V= ][Official] ViruS Annoucement [=V=]
The roots established well into round 1. Through constant makeovers during the following rounds it turned out to be a decent alliance in round 3, with various top100 players and 2 top10 players at one time.
Then it got sloppy... Things stagnated, and the complete breakdown was inevitable:
"The Split"
Arguably one of the most notorious splits in PA. Probably functioned as example for Biggdogg and his WP crew . A big part of the core decided to recreate Xanadu, and left ViruS to die. I personally never thought ViruS would survive that, but Irvine really did some magic getting things back on track.
It is a sad thing that we never got to work together again. (I blame Irvine for that, Aanf knows I've always been pro-ViruS ).
Anyway, it's sad to see an alliance with such a long history go. The learning school of many top-players... Now on a resting place with the other legends.

Scorpio,
You just posted before I did!!!
Yes, a good group of ViruS that remained did a great job in helping me re-build ViruS! I will give a special mention to my right hand man Zuper! - Was a great number 2 and friend!
R3 was one of my fav rounds - rebuilding a great alliance!
and boy it was hard work, another great moment was when we allied with Fury.
I have so many great memories from this alliance!
I could not have wished for a better HC to have worked with me during my time as Chief Executive of ViruS :-
Zuper
Ghost
Eldarion
TheRand
Ivan
Rabbagast
Biggie
Viper
Adam
Aaranaf
Ladybug
Oh and Scorp, we needed to show PA that we did not need Xanadu, hence we made our own future, and that future did not lie with xanadu.

Re: [=V= ][Official] ViruS Annoucement [=V=]
Being an Virus old-timer, I was with you from r4 straight until r8 and thru quite a bit ups and downs, but (almost) always was fun.
While I felt I had to move on after Seraphim was founded, I still have many fond memories of my days (shock - years?) in Virus.
Sad to see you go.

Well sorry for correcting what I believed to be mistakes. I suppose I should claim that I ruled Fury, not Sid and that ViruS were my puppets in a quitting post also. Hey, it would be a quit thread and to ruin it would be "lame".
If they don't want people to post comments about them, then they should not post a thread. It's that simple. I have no "need" stfu, why don't you rather than contribute nothing except a flame based around nothing but a misguided perception that quit threads are out of bounds for disagreements of opinion?

Re: [=V= ][Official] ViruS Annoucement [=V=]
I remember how proud i was when i tagged my gal for the first time in r4, shortly after we allied Fury iirc
Had a great time for a round and a half, even if it was possibly one of Virus's worst rounds...and how pissed i was for a while when Irv came back in r5 and i got kicked after venting my opinion about certain HC's getting booted
Many fun hours it was....oooooh yes

Re: [=V= ][Official] ViruS Annoucement [=V=]
Another one bites the dust :-(
Waving goodbye to old adversaries and friends seems to be the trend the past few rounds :-(
Repect to you Virus and to all who sailed in her this round and the past rounds, playing beside and/or against you was a pleasure.

not too many left in pa period.
As I told aaranaf its quite simply a matter of the game getting boreing (due to various aspects less players caused by p2p, rather large powerblocks..) people find new games which peak there intrest or devote more time to there real life I'll give PA 1 thing thou it saved on my pocket book from the nights outings It seems Since I've gotten back home and not playing I've been spending about $100 a week at the clubs and other things :/ .
I helped out a bit in ViruS this round, sad to see my first Alliance fade away but alas all good things must come to a end PA did a long time ago.
hope everyone whos still playing hafe fun and play nice

Re: [=V= ][Official] ViruS Annoucement [=V=]
I΄m really sorry to hear(read) this
ViruS was an alliance I actually liked.
Even though I had my latest round on the oposite field of you guys..
I still remember some of my best and most amusing momemts from ViruS during r4 +/-.
I was there when =V= got into relations with Fury and was part of taking the step up into the "BIG league", not yet the biggest alliance,but still competing against the best. The famous [V|DC] tags etc. awesome defence improvements and all those fun attacks. VIruS to me was always a great community and still was to the best of my knowledge.
I remember coming in with some good Fleets/Squads from TE at the end of r3, after some constructive and promising meetings with Irvine aswell as getting a good amount of my friends in to start the building of a new and strong empire.
I gained alot of good friends through this time, most of which I still have today playing with me, or giving me some competition ( although I can΄t really play this round )
I moved on myself back in r5 midway, after some differences of opinions etc. Irvine΄s powertrips, and the policy regarding the VE+WTFV blocks "breakup"/divide&conquer.. (those of you who know, know..)
It become a natural point for me to move on..and later I΄ve been with pack to this day
Regardless of the past, I take my hat of for VIruS and salute you
You won΄t be forgotten =)
and I΄ll see you around.
Either on the battlefield, or on the same team once again
or just for a friendly chat on IRC or wherever(whenever)
Regards
΄Rabba
Reporting in from Barηa
P.S Even though Aranaf might have blown up the importance, in the views of some people. Who cares? This is Thread about ViruS saying thanks and good bye.
The fact remains that the little, yet lethal ViruS came to this world and shaked the dominating forces and actually gave them a run for their money!

Re: [=V= ][Official] ViruS Annoucement [=V=]
yeah, it's kinda sad ViruS had to throw in the towel.
I was with you for one round or something a couple of years ago.
It's been pretty quiet from you guys lately. Almost liek you didn't exist.
But anyways...I hope your members who still wanna play PA find themselves a decent place, and good luck to all of you.

ViruS was my one true alliance, cant remember how long i've been there 3/4 years? December 2000 rings a bell, many class people have been through the alliance. Cant think of anything else to say, but good luck to all the ViruS members who are still playing the game, And ITs been emotional.
For old times sake...

Re: [=V= ][Official] ViruS Annoucement [=V=]
So it ends again,
I do not share your feelings of sadness, for so many are now gone already,
probably the departure of my own alliance numbed me enough to soften the leaving of others.
but for those Virus people who were still dedicated to their team at the end hour,
I wish all the best, and may you now find more sleep at nights without PA,
or another alliance community to continue these sleepless nights

Not necessarily. Many alliances disband because a number of their members leave the game. In some cases, alliances will simply move to another game, as Xanadu did. Many of us (Plus some ex-Fury and ex-Legion) are playing as Xanadu in EVE, and a few other PA alliances have made the move too. (hirr, apparently recently NoS, and one other alliance I can't remember at the moment.)
I am thoroughly impressed to see ViruS last as long as it has - Virus was around before I started playing PA, and remained for long after I stopped. Few alliances lasted as long as ViruS did.
Good luck in your future. Should you want to stay together without rebuilding in PA, you might want to try switching games. It can be quite a refreshing change. Many former enemies from PA are now friends in EVE (Except Killmark, he's still KoS to almost anyone who remembers him. )
Edit: Too bad it looks like the forums were wiped in the past year. I miss my old post count.

Thanks. We play other games already, but planetarion was always by far our main priority, up until now. we'll be continuing in our other games and looking to expand into more.

Re: [=V= ][Official] ViruS Annoucement [=V=]
And another alliance is gone.
But this time I think its necessary also for a statement from ToT HC.
I just want to say thank you in the name of ToT for being 3rounds good allieds and partners. this cooperation helped ToT a lot to become a topally (I know some ppl doesnt see ToT as a topally but that you can discuss in another thread :P ). and also when the end of our partnership in R7 wasnt really friendly, Im sad to see you guys disbanding as PA ally. A lot of friendships between ToT and (former) Virus member survived till yet and I think also in the future.
I wish all of you the best and hope your community will survive in other games. perhaps we meet again anywhere...

2 years ago I joined ViruS and have had plently of enjoyable experiances being part of the community as peon and officer. There was never a dull moment in the channels.
Really saddens me to see this happed and now the only thing that kept me playing this game has gone. Big thanks to all the members past and present who made ViruS what it was. A place I and many others called home.
Merry Xmas and a Happy new year to you all

It is a shame to see one of the few remaining old alliances calling it a day.
Well played guys.

Re: [=V= ][Official] ViruS Annoucement [=V=]
For all bar about 3 rounds i played as virus and i loved it. I caused some problems and saw problems in virus after the experiences of round 9. However without virus i think i would have quit this game long ago and never enjoyed it nearly as much as i have
Being part of virus kept the flame of this game alive in me and allowed me to form sooooo many new friendships that it is hard to believe a computer game and a program called irc could do such a thing.
anyways virus its sad to see you go and thanks for the hand up you gave me in this game and for all the m8s u producedfor me
ooo /me posts my third post in whole pa career and once again for a goodbye

In any case, you have my respect for sticking around so long and delivering a good game every round. Virus is a part of planetarion history, it was there when I started and it was there when I left, I enjoyed the times I worked with you and I enjoyed the times I worked against you.

Strange thing then, when we sure had some people in the top 10 from the start till the finish of R8 Logbat was ranked 2 in the end and top 5 most of the round, same for a few other people. The Retalion BG attacked 2 gals each day on our own, and I think the other 3-4 BG's did attack atleast 1 gal a day.
I wanna thank Virus for giving Retalion a refuge after MDK wouldn't give us what we wanted(picking our own targets for example). We could blend in with Virus really easy, and help Virus during R8. In the end Retalion held allot of Officers and HC's Fletcher ended HC, Logbat HBC, Turtle HC, Nameless HBC, Myself/scooter and many others became DC/BC/MO.
It's with great sadness that I will probably quit PA aswell. PA lost the fun factor for me. I do like the new abilities, but I greatly miss the old R9.5 (and before that) combat system with initiative/emp/steal/cloaked. I miss the activity of the players and the hardcore levels we reached during R5-8. I miss the number of planets allot aswell.
GL on those that go on playing PA and GL for those Virusmembers on getting a new alliance. (Maybe I join again if I get a good offer or so, but probably not.)
PA is infected, there is no cure.

Why is it everytime I seem to read the forums, someone is disbanding or leaving PA?

Re: [=V= ][Official] ViruS Annoucement [=V=]
Scorpio pointed me in this direction so i will just say a few things.
I am sorry to see Virus disbanding in planetarion, you have certainly had a very long and varied planetarion history and although i have not kept up with your activities over the last few rounds i am sure all those members that are part or have passed through you have had an enjoyable and enhanced gaming experience.
I created Virus waaaay back in round 3 which is a good few years ago now, i even remember thinking of the name- there was a lot of oohing and aaaghin at the time, but i guess you had to be there. In this respect Virus has certainly lasted beyond the founders percieved duration of time and perhaps it will go onto continue in other games.
Best of luck for the future and of course you could always join us and many other golden oldies (chance to have a punt at zhil) if you are looking for a new experience.
