Your posts tend to actually have some content (sometimes even useful stuff ;) ), not just spam stuff like:

"What they said"
"I agree"

and so on. :D

So whats wrong with backing up/supporting people = )
If you dont like what I post, simply dont read it... :D

aaanyway, maybe the Kami could spend less time moaning and more time getting organized... :cool:

If you have nothing constructive to add and are just posting for the sake of posting, that is spamming - which I believe is against the rules? :D

I'm not sure its just organisation the kami lack as some karas would have us believe. The Kamis numbers over a long period of times has been declining and the loss of so many uber levelled people in 1 shot just finished the process.

I do like the kara stance of "we dont have a massive advantage" and then "we could take every op if we wanted but we dont coz we dont wanna ruin the game".

just think, a few months ago you would run round dyron and see so many members of the soul that you wouldnt dare to declare on their op (unless you like getting toasted) now you managed to take that same op with ease. anyways nice knowing you guys,

On another note (offtopic)I cancelled my sub for another game but will be back to see how the game develops (they *might* add content after ryzom ring). hope the game is stil here when I get back and I hope things dont go as I expect them to now with a mass exodus of kamis.

maybe some of the traitors might switch sides again *looks at spriteh*

It would seem to me that an Outpost is a special region. The region doesn't even exist except for 4 hours when someone makes a move on it.

Seems that the PvE'ers don't even need to show up if they don't want to participate in PvP content.

Just a thought though. By the way, I would like more PvE content too.

You cancelled your sub?! :(

Sorry to see you go Jackoba. Like all those who have gone before you, you will be missed. Dare you name the "other game"? :D

No, its using your eyes in conjunction with the wheel on your mouse (or down arrow on your keyboard) once you've scanned for the "ajsuk" box. ; )

And I can't believe your moaning about PvP for outposts too... as Noin said, theres a button just for you guys, or don't go there at all - You don't have to take part. They can't cater for everyone at the same time. (I'd also like more PvE - But I understand the reason to do some work on PvP for people that want it, I'm lucky I happen to enjoy the OP PvP also)

How did I just know I'd get that response. :rolleyes:

That argument would be OK if there was some none PvP content as well, but the ONLY content work being done for the game is on PvP, and has been for far too long.

And before you point to R2, it doesn't count IMHO because it's an addon and it's also player made content, not dev made content. It's a tool for making content, not content itself.

You got that response because you specifically said:

So, he rightfully pointed out that they did restrict it to "special" regions. "Special" and "temporary". But that wasn't really your point, was it? What you really wanted...
That argument would be OK if there was some none PvP content as well...
And your argument might be OK if it weren't for the fact that it's got nothing to do with the point of the thread. The thread is about a) changing outposts to be more "fair" and b) how horribly unbalanced some people think the situation is because we Karavan are dominating the server.

Ya know, if you're gonna snark Jayce for not being constructive, the least you can do is not attempt to drag the thread off it's topic and on to your pet topic. We all get the fact that you want more PvE content; so do most of us. We're practically begging for a Kitin invasion that lasts more than a couple hours. But when we're debating a pvp issue, maybe it's best if those that absolutely won't do pvp just ignore the whole thread. Save yourself the agita.


I guess I'm gonna suggest that if all we're left with is nagging people about being on topic or telling them that simply agreeing isn't worthy of the pixels to post it, then maybe it's time to lock the thread? Unless someone has something interesting and on-topic to add. I'm all out; all I got is more plans for how to accept Ma Duk's surrender and how to turn those big giant Kami guards into performing circus monkeys. :)

Well said - to the two above posts...

As for the Ring... No, its not content. It's the gateway to ALOT more content. Why does it matter if its player made or Dev made? Surely we should be thankful for this tool (when it comes) and not be bashing the Devs because they're not able to do everything wanted of them at once...

Selfish and unrealistic are the two summative words... = )
