There's a fine line between assuming LS position is somehow a "rank" vs being a lazy sloth and not wanting to scroll down...

In general, it tells me those server ops have the IQ of a plucked chicken feather.

-=sigh=- this is exactly why there will never be a group effort here...
never has been...never will be.

ANY serverop is worth NOT bashing.

No offense, but I just don't' understand the attitudes around here lately.

We have a small community, why does everyone rip on each other all the time?

What's the all of the sarcasm?

Conversely, why do some ops think they're on a higher plane than other people?

People are people and everyone dies buck naked and broke. As in equal.

This community is actually behaving much like communities in real life.

I respect a server by its content, not by a name.

Regardless, this topic should be locked before it gets off topic.

Yeah, we know about SlayerX and what he tries to do.

Yeah, we know about the servers and how there's an issue with bumping it up.

But, just harassing each other will just bring more and more hate torwards the community. Best to end it while it is young.

IMO, the reason we regress intellectually and bash one another is because the community has zero forward momentum. We're in the same place today we were in 2 years ago. That is not a bash to the devs, because I also understand why there is not a greater effort there either. So few people to do so much work, and they just get shit on anyway.

The little server-specific flare-ups like this that occur do not damage the community. It gives the rest of us a moment to be entertained. They usually die down quickly anyway. The damage comes from non-stop trashing, bashing from old timers who hate the current team, or competing projects who somehow think they are better than everyone else on the planet.

Maybe I just talk too much. I'll shut up again and just surf.

Good point.

first off I play on Krusher's and have tons of fun...

i wont talk about Slayerx, never had a problem with him (not defending him) but also never really enjoyed his "events" where all the mobs hit for 23k and had 400k hp's...

the main reason im posting here is cause of DiViNCi's post... Zak...if its the same person i'm thinking of (SK on Rodcet, circa '99-'00?)... i met him a few times in game, knew of him and his rep on the server, etc etc... and like i said, IF its the same person... was a really stand up guy... just wanted to throw that out there

Grim

(or ... Axamagoura, DE Nec, Rodcet for your old schoolers... but i wasnt famous so you probably wouldnt know me anyways haha)
