You didn't like the EU/US split?

Or you don't like the idea of PvE & PvP shards?

I can't believe we're still going over the same mistakes after 100 posts in this thread.

If you mean in Jumpgate Evolution, then that will be very hard because of Safe zones and all those shards..

I Stared playing Jumpgate back in the the day on the EU server I had no idea it was the EU server and wasn’t really aware that we had one in the US or indeed that I was playing on a server that had split from the main server.

When the EU closed I really hated coming over to the US server for lots of reasons too many to go into now but now I would hate to see that server split into a EU or a US or indeed into multi shards as for the PVP or PVE shards It depends on what they have to offer Im not a great a fan of having them but until they come into being I cant really say.

See lordopic you were happy on any shard as long as you got to play.

I suggest you RP a Jumpgate noob when Jumpgate Evolution comes out to ease the pain.

I giggle when some who likes to pretend he's a badass space pilot questions the "maturity" of others.

Um, I could care less if Jumpgate had safe zones or not. All I want is a version of the game that will be as fun, if not more so, as the original version was about 5 years ago. In fact, I'm pretty sure I haven't stated were I stand in regards to safe zones at all yet, unlike most people here that want to believe the sky is falling. Nice try though.

PS: In order for me to reiterate that you're a moron, I would first have to state that you are a moron. To my knowledge, I haven't yet called you a moron. Albeit that could change rather swiftly if you keep acting like one.

Re: How to shard without ruining the game.

Actually the maturity comment wasnt aimed at you it was the maturity of someone basically telling someone to go kill themself. Not that it personally bothers me, I get worse from random strangers while driving.

And the moron bit, after careful research it appears to be a general all encompassing morons comment that I am a party to. Not a direct name calling.

I object under the following grounds:

I believe that if you were to choke yourself, you'd pass out long before you died.

Re: How to shard without ruining the game.

I have a conspiracy theory. Now I know that I may be jumping the gun a bit, but since the people in this thread like em, I want to be the first to blame the demise of Jumpgate Classic on SAFE ZONES
