inagine being a player who let that bother them so much that they quit the game....
Think those players are the only ones... we all been through it. Those of us left were obviously strong enough to adapt and overcome. The ludicrously of this argument is baffling. HT's descision and stance on the matter seal this story in the history books. It is what it is. I promise you more war playing members left than you fighter jocks the past 8 years....
Violator i got no beef with you. My argument is members like yourself have only focused on what has effected you guys and not the community as a whole. As if any aspect of the game outside of fighter combat is illegitimate. Your not doing that now but thats been your MO the past 15 years ive known you.
Players were lost for multiple reasons. These players, who quit because of Skyyr, had and still have the opportunity to combat him to this day and even dominate him and his mates in the game. Instead, those players remain quiters and haters blaming Dale instead of paying a monthly sub and doing something about it the right way.
When the entire game is based on war strategy and a player goes out of their way to ruin the concept of a war strategy MMO game, than there is no point in playing a war strategy game when there is no more strategy to be had. Skyyr has all day to hunt players every time they take off. Most people don't. Most people aren't here to go after individuals, they are here to participate in a war strategy to capture and defend bases based on the situation. If that's not the concept, than it's just a large Match Play game and Hitech is crazy to let it turn into that, as we can see by the #s, it's not working out.
Further more, if you don't think 13k kills in 2 months by his squad ran off dozens of players, than you are clearly mislead.
I guess we could all be cowards like Banshee and bend over for him so he doesn't target us every time we get a kill, but some of us have a spine and won't stand for garbage that infected the game. Again, running the best furball sticks we had out of the game when they only have a short time to play and then begging for more competition is just moronic.
