I think alot of you need to take a break. So many of you argue way too much about stuff that will never get resolved. There is no resolution/right or wrong for the vast majority of stuff people argue about in the first place. (ie. to furball or tool shed/whats the right way to play.) So why bother? I have tried to argue my points, what I thought was right or wrong, then I took a break. Now the mere thought of arguing over that stuff seems far too time consuming and frankly, a waste of time.
That is all.

You're wrong, you're wrong, you're wrong, you're wrong ;)

He's right, he's right, he's right, he's right! ;)

We now pause for station identification.

Furball vs Toolshed vs vulch vs BnZ......
I wish that I could remember what thread Skuzzy responded to with what could be a new 'Sticky'
Gameplay is gameplay.....how you do it is as individual as the person putting down the $15/month. It's like telling a coke drinker he should drink pepsi.
People....if you don't like what's happening at your airbase....I have a secret..
it's called .move xxx
If someone asks how to defend a vulched field by upping at that field....I will not give advise that states...."you're doing things wrong"
4 month newbs are like teenagers......they know everything.
We were all newbs.
Never take this game personally.
People get pissed in the BB's usually because they don't understand that the previous comment was sarcasm. Emoticons can not take the place of voice inflection.
I play this game because it involves massive amounts of challenge and learning and skill. Cheaters and hackers must die. I have no time for them. They are the complete oposite of what this game is about.
-
I think the arguements about different styles of play are only testimant to the multi-faceted gameplay offered by AH and the reason the game never becomes dull for any of us.

OK ... Who are you? What have you done with Morph?
Bronk
-
lol bronk. I still have a deaper hate for everyone in the game than anyone else here. Including leviathn, the biggest scum bag of them all.
I just think that all these moronic threads about how bad FT is hurting the game, how bad bombing a virtual building is hurting someones sex life, is getting old. Dats all. :)
There havent been many "good" threads up in a long time. Besides, how many..." WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BOMB FT YOU SCUM" threads do we need? Or better yet, collision model threads. Those are beauts as well.
-
Morph's living in a dreamworld again .... (passes the meds)

So old Morph has taken us to a high plane of existance -- Meta-whining. Whiniing about the whining. And we were all so wrongly focus on the little things. Shame on us.
-
People just lose sight of what the game is really about. Myself included. The boards are good entertainment though......
Dave
Edit...... Some more "xMarine" posts could certianly liven things up :D

As it should be. Also, you should be thanking me. I have already done all the work for you, led you to the water, now all that's left is for you to take a drink. :)
-
Morph you are so GHEY. I think Loc on is affecting you adversly LOL.
Nomalk hit the nail on the head - Entertainment. The fact that any of you get emotionally involved to the point you are actually pissed is what cracks me up and blows my mind. And that's what's so ironic that Mak is the one that hit the nail on the head.
It also cracks me up when people whine in threads. "Ohh no not this again." LOLH Especially for the archetypal agruments. For the most part it's just entertainment. Crap that was the whole point of the MOAT, wasnt it?
I do agree if anyone actually has issues with people on these boards or in the game, there is some thing wrong and you shoudl take a break. It has done wonders for Morph :D
Why do so many group huggers and love festers play combat games LOLH. "Oh yaaaaay everyone be nice and all agree and get along, please don't hurt anyones feelings, even if there is a right and wrong. mmmmkay"
:rofl
IMO - Poor Doks melt down in the score thread is proceless. And I like Doc. Even Lev is in there worried about the purse fighting LOLH.:rolleyes:
Whats this world comming to.:lol

I would like the honor of taking the first drink and ring a new era of peace and harmony on the AH BBS..... wtf? ITS POISON KOOL AID!!!! DAMN YOU BKS!!!! DAMN YOU TO HELL................

Mars, it is just scary to see a 5 or even 10 page thread on the ethics of bombing an FH. Is there that much free time on peoples hands? Has that not been gone over ten thousand times before?
Oh look, someone captured FT. Now lets go to the BB and post about it!! LMAO. As if the magical Maproom fairy will give those bases back to their rightful owners due to the 5000 whines on the BB. haha
BB is just so bland lately. That's all I'm getting at. Same ol same ol.
Isn't there someone who's into tranvestites? No one here likes to maybe choke them selves with their USB cables from their joysticks while they pleasure themselves to pictures of sheep? Or better yet, a bombed out AH town building!? I mean, something, anything would be more interesting than "zOMFG u killed my FH u scum".

I was kind of disappointed that this thread was intended to put a damper on my bbs entertainment. But if this is going to turn into a petty argument over the validity of having petty arguments, I'll pop up some more popcorn :)

ok SFCHONDO.......
that avatar is WAY too hypnotising (HIP-NO-TIES-ZING)
i simply cant look away.....
lol
i keep waiting for something more to happen.
ok back to the thread sorry about highjack:D

Nice to see you're still here! I thought you got the boot. That would've been a great loss to the community!

you know what we do to rats in NYC??
-
I took a nice break for over a month... it isn't that I've not had time to play, just little interest.
I feel the interest starting to build, but from what I gather the gameplay is spiraling down into landgrabbing more and more each day.
Maybe this week...

HAHAHAHAHA BINGO!
This has the makings of one of the greatest meltdowns evah LOLH.
All I can say Morph is maybe you still need some time off LOLH.

Have a twix bar!:aok

What this thread is, is an example of what happens when your stuck at a house with a PC with no lock-on disk, and no AH for an entire night. :furious

Dude, no one in this BBS has ever seen me really pop off on anyone yet. Zaz-cakes was the closest, but I redirected that outburst via Photoshop. Should a true eruption occur, trust me, you will save the body of the message for a while just to study the imagery.
As for taking a break, it is getting close to that time for me, anyway. The BBS is a constant rehash of the same idiotic circle-jerkery. And sadly it is also a reflection of the malaise that has set into the MA. Which isn't so much a fault in the game technology as in that the basic thread of the MA has been static for long enough for players to adapt to it. It's time to shake things up in the MA is all.

I disagree. More customers than ever means AH is perfect as it is (depending on one's perspective). It is us, the customers who supported this game for so long, that are to blame. We were never expected to stay this long, and perhaps we shouldn't have. The animosity that makes it's way into every thread, the vile language, insults, and degrading remarks made about families and personalities are a good indication of this. For many, this game isn't about fun, it's either a way to lash out at others for people who are unable to do so in the real world, or it's a substitute for the real world, and is therefore taken far too seriously.
I'm not saying this about anyone in particular in this discussion, just using the instances of these behaviors as a sort of hyperbole. Not everyone who's just burned out on the game is guilty of this, but many are.

Hub can you point me to a thread that is like the one you explained above. Both of you have a pretty dark view, maybe it's me, but I just don't think it is as bad as either of you portray it.:confused:
-
An online game needs to retain players over the long haul, which is something HT has done really well. The community is what makes an online MP game thrive. But in making it accessable to newbies there are now present enough shortcuts to the apparent rewards that its possible to "do well" and bypass a lot of the learning curve.
Which makes the people who spent the time to learn to furball, or to study the texts by Shaw, Galland, etc., scratching our heads asking: "Why? How can what you do be fun?"
The MA isn't all that bad. But it should be tweaked. Not only because it needs it, but because in general people who play online games are masters at adapting to change. And if things don't change they get bored. And capture FT.

You Suck !
-
I dont know dok, it seems that if you say something, and it doesnt match up with their outlook on certain things, you're "melting down". LOL wtf. meltdown eh? That's cool.
LolzOMFg! But a 10 page thread/RANT on killing FH's isn't a melt down? A melt down in masses.
haha.
-
Hyperbole, I believe is the word. Exaggeration to prove a point. Not every thread turns ugly, but there have been more than enough (Skuzzy's pretty good about deleting/editing most of the worst stuff), and if I had a dollar for every physical threat, insult, slur, or deragatory remark involving someone's mother, I'd be rich.
Not everyone is an idiot, but there's already a surplus in AH, and I see more guys talking stupid **** every night. It's not necessarily a negative reflection of the entire community, but there are more than just a few people who do seriously need to take a break.

Mars.....
I may be dumb..... but I'm not a dumb arse. Even when I am in the middle of my own meltdowns I do retain more perspective than you realize.
Just sayn sometimes its hard to really "read" people from text.

Mak,
I didn't mean that in a disrespectful way, but there are times when I thought to myself why do you bother when you get that upset.
IMH you took the whole MAOT thing pretty hard and missed all entertainment value, so for you to come full circle is a good thing :aok
That is all I meant.
Now why Morph is going through his whiny period I will nevah know lol.
