Nothing better than a warm welcome
« on: July 01, 2009, 02:28:18 PM »
So there I was in LWB, entering on the Knight side.
Knights heavily outnumbered perk bonus 2.27, Bish ENY 21. Knight moaning about the numbers. You would think every help would be appreciated now.
And what reply do I get when I greet Knightland on countrychannel ? A rant about sideswitchers like me that "screw this game"  :lol

Don't let a moron or two bother ya' none.

These ppl are the spice of the game. When there is down time climbing out, etc, etc, it is fun to toy with their wee brains and watch them self destruct. It's good clean fun.

This Knight welcomes Lusche anytime.  I would rather have snail slime on the Bishop & Rook than on us knights.  Sorry you got a bad reception Sir.  Shame on you folks who behaved in this way!

My expierence was about the same. Few Hellos and an invite from the Bishops. And the Knits. An open window on a cold night, with no blanket!  :x  Have fun VF-6 thanks for the heads up. :salute

Don't worry, I'm sure he didn't bring his sheep for such a quick switch.  When they see our sheep, they will never want us to leave.  They will be smitten.  

Oh, and not to mention Hartmann's legs....

Wow really?

I switch almost every day and sometimes twice or 3 times a day.  I never get these comments any more.

It was just the irony of the situation that was cracking me up. Complaning about low numbers, and then complain about someone fighting ON their side. O would have understood if he complained because someone switched to the "winning" horde. But this way...

But that's not entirely suprising. That guy's CO (yes, one of the three mentioned names above) did yesterday explain to us that so many squads did leave Knights because nobody porks ords anymore...

I end up having to check to see what country I'm in every time I fly.  Generally don't hear anything anymore although last week the 80th were accused of hording by both sides in the same fight as all 4 of us that were on switched sides halfway through because the numbers were getting uneven.

I was quite proud of that :)
