Greetings,
-I know the guy and you do not know what you are talking about
-He's not pissed he is trying to get a discussion going
-He didn't want into the US league when he bought his team, I know him - you obviously don't so stop flapping those lips of yours when you do not know what you are talking about
-You have yet to state one intelligent thing about why his idea is bad so when you state baby anyone intelligent will look at you as more fitting of that description
Cheers, Eagle Scream
Greetings Mr. Scream.
He may not have wanted to join the USA team, but the rest still applies. He is spamming forums and while he may not be the biggest baby, his whining demands is quite childish.
In any case, his point is not very valid and he is barking up the wrong tree. For him to blindly come to our forum when our league is filled with quality, competitive owners who for the most part are doing well for themselves totally invalidates his point. The problem is not with the league names, it's a personal problem of him being a suckass owner. Instead of working hard to overcome any perceived (and it is perceived, not fact) disadvantage, he decides to whine.
Tell your boy take take his weak shit and get out of our forums. Thanks.
Cheers, Sean
Greetings Mr. Scream,
Though I personally wouldn't express it in a similarly volatile manner as Sean, I do concur.
His motives may be sound, I am not one to judge that; however, his methods are not so easily excused.
Much more effective methods of expressing such things are available, and personally, I feel he should have executed those outlets first, rather than resort to the forums so quickly.
Granted, he may have attempted those alternatives to no avail, I will give him benefit of the doubt, but his language used throughout is well... to put it bluntly... ineffective. He tends to sound "like a broken record" if you excuse the cliché.
Personally, I agree with our mutual friend, with regards to the league renaming. However, not for the same reason.
Nonetheless, I was not in the least bit irked by his concern and desire, as he established a sound premise. Unfortunately, he seemed to prove ineffective at modulating and supporting the aforementioned premise in a eloquent manner. Rather than attempt to illustrate broader and more diverse aspects of his premise, he seemed to 'harp' upon the same example with little, if any, variation.
Due to that default, his image (which was already brought into question upon pioneering the unpopular opinion) was tainted further, giving 'trolls' and 'flamers' opportunities to exploit the already unpopular man.
With this in mind, I unfortunately cannot truly give value to your statement.
Though you may know our mutual friend personally, the image perceived by the general populous is one that he must refurbish himself. Assistance is always noble and appreciated, however, this assistance cannot be 'direct', lest your own image become jeopardized as well.
In this scenario, one can clearly see that your message was performing admirably, garnering sympathy and eliciting others to 'rethink' their opinions on the matter; however, with the second half of your third point, and from that point forward, the progress made was lost. Remember, when persuading others, one must respect and humble one's self, not insult.
"Flatter endlessly the common people" - Julius Caesar
History shows us that he was right.
Perhaps in the future, one could employ a more delicate approach, avoiding a sharp riposte, in turn.

Greetings,
I liked your points. I just had a kid (on July 4th) so have not really had time to comment (let alone read) most of the points but noted yours was well thought out and written so have read it quickly.
I appreciate your constructive comments in regards to this.
Cheers, Eagle Scream

Though am not sure the analogy fits, I am a cat fan so found it humourous none the less.

Greetings,
Why do you say "Greetings" and "Cheers" three posts in a row? Do you talk like this IRL?
BTW, you don't have to sign your name on the bottom of your posts, we can see who posts under your avatar on the left.

Greetings,
Force of habit, been using it since was playing Utopia and Earth 2025 in the late 90s (actually recently switched from 'sincerely' to 'cheers' as my closer in the last year or so) as found it helped with diplomacy etc
In terms of real life actually have found the 'greetings' tag on rare occasion has slipped into my introductions, while 'cheers' is a friendly goodbye which I find a number of people say in all honesty
Sincerely, Eagle Scream

Played alliance game?
You sound like you were in ... let's see SoL or NM.
Greetings,
In Earth made alliances as I went with individuals, every reset was different. Was a good method as was able to battle with the clans and get into the top 10 a lot.
In Utopia did okay, I never did break the 1 million barrier but was in the 500k range on average. Was with Guardian Alliance, then Nation of Hope during it's glory years. Then was a spy for the anti HF side (I think HF, been a while).
Dominion always did well, usually went in with 5 others. Liked using either SMURF themes (Evil Smurf, Ebola Smurf, Stinky Smurf,...) or holiday themes (Easterbunny Killer, Reindeer Steaks, Santa Died,...)
Currently doing Tribalwars and in top 10 there
Did well in Civilzation and Mechwarrior multiplayer stuff.
Could hold my own in Counterstrike and Quake 3 Arena (only played up to 1.6 for CS, and beta for Q3Arena).
Cheers, Eagle Scream
PS: Have gone with Eagle Scream for this whole decade, prior to that used Avro Arrow at times for nickname...
PPS: You play Earth or Utopia or any of those?

Lolrofl, well said! Friend in nationstates noted it was a good game so I figured I would try it out for a day, 2 years ago. The first year I played it non stop basically but now I have no enemies within 36 hours of me so now it is just log in twice per day, manage some stuff, log off (5-60 minutes per log in depending on what I want to do). I do hear you though with the endless nature of it, lol Sorta like evercrack or runescape but not as bad
Cheers, Eagle Scream

TW is a crazy time destroyer. I recall spending tons of time just managing resources, not to mention setting up attacks. The fact that I would have to wake up sometimes in the middle of the night to send a coordinate attack is madness.
What world do you play on?
