Give me a paper instead of claims, and I might reconsider your views.
@ Nunho,
Tx for the clear answer on my ghetto question.

Your quote:
.-.
part 3b is what most everyone refers to. The inferior status of the kingdom.
Where others answered with … 95% of the community are ghetto’s, you at least tell us what should be understood under that term.
Sorry to say, but I have another point of view.
If you take a better, or more carefull (?), look, your second defenition is identical to the one I used to state that the top is a ghetto. NamelyThat being said, I understood from your first paragraph that you doubt if you should ignore my posts, because I might be an idiot. Do not worry, I do not care you ignoring my posts, and I don’t even mind you assessing me an idiot. Somebody called me already a ****head in this thread, so you are quite polite compared to that one.Quote:
:"a portion of a city (community) in which members of a minority group live; especially because of social, legal, or economic pressure”.
To be frank: you, nor Realest or other Dharan’s and Greenies are the ones I want to react to those posts. But the OMAC team are the ones I want to read and react…
As long as OMAC stays / becomes aware that, what you name “kingdoms with an inferior status” are the mayority on THEIR server, such might withhold them from making rule changes which would further enhance top-powerplay.
It might even inspire them to make raze attacks NW-related, just like any other military, thievery or magic operation.
Cheers!
PS. My example about lame T/M’s being able to RK was posted in a larger context. I said:I never denied T/M's (or anybody else) the right to adjust to the game-rules. I just wanted to argument why non-NW-related razes (or any other non-NW related offensive action) is a bad gamerule, imho.Quote:
EVERYBODY can raze-kill now, even T/M’s.
;-) @ miracle
i said i assumed you didn't want me to ignore what you posted. i probably didn't sound that way, but it meant to say i agree with your view. I was just trying to show you what others mean when they say the word. The problem with the word is there's 3 meanings.
i misunderstood what you were saying in that paragraph with the lame t/m. I agree with what you were saying. =o

also, here is one war (at about the 72 hour mark of 5 day war) we had against an extremely stubborn kd who refused to surrender, so we ended up having to "convince" them to quit, which meant they ended about -ve 18k acres, and we were about evenQuote:

forgot about temple :D
but we're going off topic, altho the war proofs that razing is not always the right choise of play. We RKed more but I guess it's pretty obvious we lost the war :p
hehe that was a fun war though, poor Shamus got killed twice :P
/me forum stalks Versace
12 to 8 (or 9?) was the final count IIRCQuote:

Hell yeah that was fun :D end score was 12 to 10
And VT may have the title never short of words, but if he got owned.... :D
I think that was our only war where we didn't gain acres. Every other war I believe we used simliar chain+razechain strats and ended up + acres.
Well the thing is, for all you top kd whores, you rarely war because you'd rather whore all round and then think you're godlike when you hit top 10 in the charts after all the abuse and boredom throughout the round.
I'm representing the majority of players, not the X amount IRC users, the 8k other players that play for fun. You think they really give a shat about abs kingdoms? No, they want to war. Why? Because it is fun.
Warring > Whoring.
Realest and Steel, how many wars did you guys have this round? Umm... about one? You guys shouldn't even be sharing your opinions on whether or not raze should destroy land/buildings because you aren't representing the entire Utopian community.
You war because of grudges; the majority war for random fun.
oh and that^ pretty much backs up what i just said.Quote:
