Thes: If all of this was "in character", then I really don't have any problems with it. But if you go through and read it again, you'll notice that it has a very out-of-game tone.

And I'm not taking it personally, well, except for the personal attacks, I suppose I take those personally.

here leebs.

Hi scuba, welcome back.. i think.

Everyone who isn't and alpha and bitches about alphas being superior or who is an alpha and defends thier superiority...

JUST SHUT UP.

i know its the internet and all and flaming is the only thing any of you seem to know how to do, but for crying out loud enough with the alphas rule / alphas suck / alphas rule / alphas suck allready.

/splode

(seriously : have fun guys. some people have fun flaiming, some people can't stand it. some people like trolling, some people hate it. I am sure this thread and VO is big enough for everyone. ..

wait...)

[edit : I just realized that even trying to calm things down like what spell did can be construed as "lecturing", which will attract its own flames and derision. Which is ironic. Anyway, like Sputnik likes to say : BURN!]

Ya know, im getting pissed off with all the alpha generalising, ya know? There are a LOT of good vets out there, and a few bad eggs.

Pitty the bad eggs smell more...(only the good die young)
Mar 14, 2006 zamzx zik link
Aye yoda, that's more or less what I'm trying to say.

tis' more like; the vets have had a year or two more to practise, thus; the people who where good in the alpha are Excellent in the release, and the people who where noobs (me) are good in the release.

But thats not what I said zam, and I have seen one bonafied new member pick PvP up a lot faster than I did.

Yeh yeah, im a newby to some alpha, but I had 2 whole years before release to get good, and still some of these new guys suprise me, hell, I met shape in beta, and this was AFTER i considered myself ok at pvp v someone like CM or Niki, or Spider (yeah yeah, Niki still whoops me) and guess what? he whooped my ass consistantly, and do ya know why? Cos he spent most his time PvPing! You can only get so good then you kind of plateau, and maybe you might push it a little more, but you never really get better than that.

What im trying to say is the few Alpha that stink stick out like a sore thumb. You are one of them mate, so ehum.

I'm not alpha, not beta and don't really care for this flag waving. However I'll just make a couple of points.

Half of the top ten player killers are not alpha. The highest pk/death ratio for players over 50 pk's is not held by an alpha either so alphaness means nothing from that perspective.

"Reformed BLAK"??? I don't think so. You, gentlemen, have taken the name but you aren't reforming BLAK. You're just reforming the old halfarsed SYN with 3 members under a new name. The fact that you had to use BLAK suggests a lot about your imagination or your attitudes.

Possibly a more appropriate name for your guild would be BL. or Blue Lance.

Genka:

You nailed it:

Ignorance (noun): One's inability to locate a Transliterated Russian to English translator in a small period of time.

Here's another one you might be interested in:

Pretentious (adj): attempting to impress by affecting greater importance, talent, culture, etc., than is actually possessed.

Oh, if some of us start talking about the old times, just ignore us if you dont like it! We like to recall the fun times we had, but that still doesnt mean you can tell us to shut up! (I won't anyways....)
Mar 14, 2006 Astaroth link
I love talkin bout the old times... but I try not to as often, because... we aren't in alpha any more...
Mar 14, 2006 Shapenaji link
I don't mind anyone talking about the old times.

I like it in fact. I think I really would have liked the old universe.

What bothers me is when it goes one step further into discussions of seniority.

MANY of my friends are Alpha, and 99% of em kick ass. But that 1%... whew...
