This thread spanks of butthurtness.
OMG- the yankees have too many good players...lets make them stop being able to sign people up.
Much like real life, this game parallels how things go. People work hard, then get criticized by the underclasses and demand they get hamstrung. (see fahrenheit 451 for topical reference) I don't want to penalize others for being good or better than me. I want to get better and play my way.
One, or even several powerful legions arent killing the game...lack of continuing content at high levels and no motivation to rank or play any way other than slow rank ssb for new players is killing it.
As far as haves and have nots, did the haves cheat to get what they have? If not, why shouldn;t they enjoy the benefit of being top dogs. Like all games, the strong prey on the weak here. Just like real life.
Long has this been the rule on planets, pvp, alerts, multi-hits, etc. People can say whatever they like, but it boils down to what you CAN do, and are willing to do. Everyone else tolerates, ignores, hides, or whatever seems fitting. Complaining about it is your right, but undercutting people who have achieved isn't the solution.

now with all teh new content with teh last 5 years.. many odl players have yet to experience it.... ITS about time.[/u][/b] Please tell what this new content for low ranks is that was not around when you were started that you don't have access to. There isn't anything for lower ranks that has been added except the tutorial. I don't think that's what you looking forward to. The training system benefits the legion and higher ups who organize leadership, not the newbie. It was put in place to stop legions from kicking members once they get the reward mods, or just outright kicking them before the training system existed.

at no time have i said its teh fault of the top players ive said i respect their hard work, but not one has said they support what is best for the future of teh game or come up with a useful argument that has kept the game alive, this topic was raised over a year ago, in regard amount of players leaving, and guess what nothings been done because noone wants to do what needs to be done.
yes i have lost of time and money invested and i'm a slow ranker... always have been... and guess what i have a life, a family a job and kids, but i have been here, so what i get exact dates wrong i'm old so shoot me.
i know nothing will get done an di plod onwards as i have done since game started, well before even any legions existed, before the badge system.... before 90% of he content. and i'm still floating around helping out, ive trained many of those that condesend me and forgot that i taught many of them. but hey young people have young minds..
but comes a time when you have to speak up.. yes you can flame me you can shout derision, yes i can't type. so what... i'm trying to do what is best for the game.... for the future.
"if there's a reset i'll quit" ---- and if there is no reset you'll be playing with your 30 mates and have noone left to dominate. well except me of course... and i couldn't care less how many times our base is disabled or how many times my ships get disabled cos i will be last man standing because you all will quit when no new content comes out and you'll have to quit when the plug is pulled cos your not paying to keep it going, cos only 50 players are playing...

OMG Phoenix Rebirth.... you're that legion...
my apologies to CoG, they have a better base than you guys, and that's saying a lot
your legion is also worse than they are in terms of leaders officers setting bad examples.... 5 builders.... really? Xect.... Governor? there's a purely selfish profession especially for a Xecti, Xecti fixer is the non-selfish option.(governor benefits solely the person whom is that prof, the odds of getting anything that benefits anyone else is so low).
oh also, the game will close when there are less than a few thousand people playing, not less than 50, fb has rules ya know, so much for you being last one standing lol
also, you didn't answer the question, whom were the other legions to disable your base?

Your getting it wrong, they're not dominating you. THey're not trying to lord over other legions to make themselves feel better and satisfy egos. They're just playing the game the way it is meant to be played. You lock bases, and you kill them for badges and crates, so what. I'm sure you guys lock bases as well. Are you saying you've never had anyone complain to you about you locking them?

If there's a reset I'll quit. If the game dwindles down to 50 people, I'll be long gone by then. You seem to perceive that everybody is questioning your claims of being an old player? Nobody has done so. If you cannot glean from our comments that we care for the future of this game, then I don't know what more we can do. Do you need us to state it explicitly? Stuff has been done in the last year. Perhaps not as much as we'd like to see, but stuff has been done. Just because your terrible attempt at a solution wasn't used doesn't mean nothing has been done. If you feel people are being condescending to you on this specific topic, that is probably because they realise your idea for what it is; bad. I'm not even sure what your point is anymore. Your idea is bad and this has been explained fairly thoroughly. Now your argument seems only to be "I've been here forever will be until the end of time itself". Not even sure what to make of that. Is it a poor appear to authority?

I wouldn't say they lock bases, it would require red badges to do, which would involve some sort of activity within their legion... and that place is as dead as a turkey on thanksgiving.
