FOAS, please unlock the thread you locked please. Perhaps move it to the hot n spicy graveyard and let us duke it out. This D2 community is OLD and it isnt our way to sweep things under the rug and move on. These things need to be worked out. I got a lotta sh*t to say too. Like the following which you can add to that thread you locked and then lock it again so I get the last word
Krueg, wtf. I played as coalition for many servers. I even put up with the indignity of having you tell me to STFU on voice comms and still stuck it out so I could show everyone I wasnt a biased alliance crack whore. You have no idea how much fun I had killing capt jeff, Wanderer and DH with my NHK one mission. You wont ever know how cool it was to make lasting friendships with some coalition types who for years all we did was relish the chance to kill each other and talk smack about it on the boards.
You wont ever know how tough it is for admins because you never ran a campaign. Im glad you championed the Coalition because no one else wanted the job, and its a hard job keeping your teams tempers in check and making sure they all show up for the fight... BUT, you were never hated by both sides time and again. Your entire career has been completely one sided. You've never once championed the other side. Whenever you try and run a campaign, you are damned if you do or dont. Like you, I did it because no one else was gonna. But unlike you I got lambasted from both sides. Decisions Ive made for the greater good over the servers Ive run from the perspective of both sides has cost me. I dont think you can say the same.
The invitation for playtesting was always there for you all the long nights me n DH playtested ships, but never had you guys participate. Like the C10k vs the F-DNH before changing the latter to 6 Drone control? WTF? I never got to say how pissed I was that your side always left the playtesting up to us and then bitched about it after the server started like you got blindsided. I dont think its fair for you guys to do that especially because of how hard we worked to make it fair and balanced. I wonder how many players it cost us to get it finished?
As far as the BCE and NCM SG versions, dude, no one ever flew them because they were coffins until the SG upgrade. A couple of small improvements had the desired effect, a FEW players tried them out and flew them and had fun, although no one I knew ever killed anything significant with one. But they got flown, and that was the idea. I cant believe you'd bitch about trying to bring more ship diversity to the game after all these years. OMG. At the very least the klinks got new targets to kill, and when those ships YFA were other better ships to buy. SO you should be THANKING ME because those taldren movie ships SUCKED ass at hex flipping, lol.
Krueg, I dont know if you've ever gotten it or not. I dont think you have... I never saw you fight the good fight for the other team, for the greater good, to try and get the community to be as populated and fun as it could be. However, I think you did a great job for your side, if only the alliance could have had someone as consistent as you to champion them...
You know, if players left the sfc community because of me, then it wasnt because I was an alliance sycophant, it was because I was a cunning captain and an asshole of a braggart. But I was an equal opportunity asshole and the coalition and alliance BOTH were the target of my boastful stories each and every time I won and shouldnt have. You know what, I was such a dickhead when I wrote those stories, but they were good reads and that french flag sh*t was damned funny. So bite me. For those that left because I beat them, grow some. If I've left a legacy here, besides the boastful asshole I've been, at least I can say I championed the good fight from
BOTH sides of the fence and can stand behind the latest version of the SG shiplist and proudly say it is the most refined and PvP balanced list ever.
As far as DH, wow, he put in countless hours to make the game better. And Krueg, I know you tried to get the coalition to show up in stength about every server. To me, despite all our differences, you both rock in your own ways. I hope you guys kiss and make up, cause I think this community hasnt seen its last D2 server. There are things going on atm that would surprise everyone. And Im not done writing boastful stories...
