Pardon my French, but that was the shittiest post I've ******* seen in my two years on Lord of the Craft. You're claiming that the ******* Tech-team (made up of what? Five-six people?) is killing the server? You can't be more wrong. Take a ******* look at this thread Ebs. If you can't see what's killing this server, you truly need to open your eyes. A spoiled and rotten player base is what is leading this server to its cold, dark grave. It's people who take this patch like a ******* death sentence that ruin this server. There's no disconnect between the tech and staff and the players (if there was it would be with no doubt the player base's fault.) Take Telanir for example. He does something good? Praise, praise to the ******* heavens. He does something 'bad'? He gets treatment like this. There's no disconnect anyway. It's a game of tug-of-war. The shitty ******* player base is what's ruining this server, and it's tin-foil wearing players like you that lead the player base's thoughts.
Do you Asulonians and Anthosians think that everyday there was a pugsy? Coming from a player who pugsied themselves. That every day on the damn server people were killed with no-RP? We lasted two worlds (one year) with no knockout plugin and we were fine. Grow the **** up and don't proclaim the servers demise because of a topic. ****.
It is the ***** **** players these days that proclaim the server is dying constantly that need to stop. Do you know why? Because they are the ones killing the server. Lord of the Craft used to be the perfect mix of fantasy, roleplay, and RPG, all in one server. You know what happened? We became to liberal, too easy to change. RP purists filled the ranks of players, and started tearing everything down with the justification that "WE ARE AN RP SERVER" and that "RP RP RP". No, I'm sorry. If you want to make a ******* RP pure server, go ahead and make one. Don't take this one over and make it look more foolish than its ever had. Do you know what is causing the "mass exodus" you claim is occuring? PLAYERS are. Wake the **** up.
Let us take for example, the White Rose. The White Rose was a heavily populated factions of RPers, PvPers, and normal people like me and you. You think the White Rose would of been hated in such a way they were back in the Aegis you all claim to oh-so-love? Not at all. Why? Because people would man the **** up, adorn their armor, gather buddies, and ACTUALLY TRY TO ******* STOP THEM. Boy, who would of thought that? Actually trying in RP to stop a group that RPed just as much as they did? No, let's take to our Skype chats and the forums and complain as much as we can! Together we can mold OOC and RP, together we can break this server's bounds!
Cry, *****, moan, complain all you want. Molding the server to your vision of high fantasy, pure RP, and some good FTBing won't happen. It will happen when most of the player base is gone, sure, but the track you're trying to get it on? That'll be in a few weeks.
Once more, excuse the French. I just get a bit protective of a place I called home for two years now.
