is this what serco pilots do in their spare time? i dont know if anyone else is aware of this but me and my m8 noticed it and couldnt stop laughing =) so we took that pic!

turns out 'serco' is also a chewing gum cleaning company (evidently operating in the streets of Canterbury) - is this where the name came from?

long live itani!

ah excellent! lol

for more information on the community support (and thoroughly evil) services serco offer, check out http://www.serco.com !

we itani pilots are actually very scared - we just hide it amazingly well. =)

But how is this 'anti-serco'. Someone has to clean up the chewing gum and clean the toilets. Is there something wrong with that; is your elitism showing?

I think something is showing. An untold story perhaps. The Serco were Itani slaves, forced to do menial labor, because the Itani thought they were too good for it. What the Itani resent most is that they have to scrub their own bathrooms.

We need the 'janitor' role & features mentioned in the 'suggestion' forum.

Since this thread is about 24h old without getting a lock or pushed to roleplay or off-topic...

let me answer with a very old post from Caption Rambone. I hope he allows me to say it with his words, because my english is awefull:

Red population is really bad right now. I check the active players list and all I see is Blue and Gold. Its ugly out there. The Prometheus can hold a lot of weapons but its a slug. I don't know if there are people out there who can effectively dog fight in a Prometheus or not... I am sure there are but I have a ways to go before I can say that I can push a heavy to its limits. Still looks cool though.

No matter what happens we Serco will do our best to retain our honor. If we stay the underdog... well, at least we are the underdog and thats something to hang your flight suit on. Serco to the death!"

All we need is this ship

Go there and look at the Nighthawk fighter. That'll give serco a better chance.

Look at the scout too!

That ship would be great. The scout would be nice too I guess.

The Serco aren't the only ones! How do you think the hive queens feel about their minions being used as floss?! http://www.usdentek.com/

if any team is the underdog it is itani, you shall find that even tho our pilots outnumber yours, we are mostly noobs (i am for example, and as i am currently at uni i cant play for the next 2 and a half months) and often lose to serco. as much as i love my itani pilot and the faction in general, i have to admit we do not have the best pilots out there...

and oh my god i just saw that DenTek thing - i cant believe its even written the same way! Guild Software there is something you are not telling us.... lol

oh, and itani is a band too - http://thejourney.hp.infoseek.co.jp

lol. yes. sure.

The guides seem to love us too. This thread is still here.
Perhaps I should do a counter-thread and call all Itanis dumb and lough about them. I bet that will be closed in seconds.
(serious... is there a reason this thread is still here in general? beside bashing serco I mean?)

I really don't see why this isn't in Roleplaying. It contributes nothing other than it makes fun of Serco (well, at least the name and not the in-game nation).

I didn't move it, and I'd probably put it in Off Topic if I had. Lighten up folks, enjoy it in the spirit it was posted in.

just wanted to add one thing,

Not everything out there is a malicious attack on you. Some things are humorous and do not need to be blown out of proportion.

I highly doubt that a picture of a man with Serco on his back nor any of the other things is going to make noobs leave the Serco nation.

P.S. All games have to have some sort of underdog, its impossible to make 2 totally different things equal. Be happy in the fact that you are the underdog and still are a great nation.

I looked upon the itani always as the underdog :(.

thanks for the defense. =) i only meant this as a joke - how could anyone who plays vendetta see a man walking along the local high street with serco written on his back and not want to mention it?

sorry if i offended anyone though, maybe it was the thread name as i guess that is the itani in me shining through! lol. i also thought it was quite cool when people turned this thread into a place to post where they had noticed names from vendetta - obviously the terms used as faction names can be found in other places as they were not all invented for the game!

ok take care guys and ill be more tactful about what i put up here and how i phrase things in future.
