I agree nothing like a weekend of fun with no consequences

Dude I don't get your logic "Someone reports my thread and gets it closed, I do the same". It seems quite childish.

More so If those points I made are something that you say you'd like to see happening.

This said, I don't believe that you're the reason behind closing the thread. In any case reporting a good willed post is just beyond my comprehension and reveals your poor judgement.

Oh since it seems by your actions that you don't really care for Jumpgate Classic and despite claims from a few people I (or Nazgul) weren0t really grievers but you just caused me to create something new: my own KOS list.

Why you bother posting if you cant back up what you claim?

I'm sorry but you cant just say something incredibly wrong like "The bounty system is definetely better than it was before" and not back it up with some serious logic as to why you feel that way, and most importantly what your experience is with the bounty system.

The bounty system, it's penalties, and how it ties into the tag system are extremely buggy and harsh. Saying otherwise is in complete contradiction to the reality of its observed behavior.

Wow, Ive earned kitty pictures! LOL. Oh and someone named sentinels has come to your rescue. bwahaha. The only thing I notice is how people like you only want those who agree with your views to respond to your posts. Everyone else is "stupid" or knows nothing. Pretty shallow. Maybe the reason this game is still going is because morons like you had left. Have a nice day!

Tritian, you're too late. This thread is already degraded to a waste of time. Maybe we can talk on another one?

Ohh noes, I'm on a imaginary KOS list, someone please save me from this "Nazgul" uber-leet-(self-censoring, your welcome awen).

My poor judgement huh? Perhaps your judgement should be questioned. You come in here, you insult me, you insult my friends, you insult the people who still play the game, and then you talk like you know whatTF is going on.

I was wondering when you would chime in Trit. Trit is a great example of a PvPer, a "bad guy", and a good friend. We haven't always seen eye to eye, but we have always enjoyed playing against each other, hell I've never even flown on the same side as him, and I love him. He is a stand up player who brings depth and excitement to the game. Trit is a person who is not afraid to make a comment, because he has both the wit to verbally destroy people, and the skill to shoot down pilots who dare say something outside of the station/forums. Piss off Trit and you better be hoping for a carebear inspired civ invulnerability.

Someone named sentinels.....yep, that just goes to show you know absolutly nothing about Jumpgate Classic, this forum, or this community. Sentinels is one of the most stand up factionalists I've ever had the chance to fly with. And there is a reason he is agree with me. He is still in touch with the damn game.

Perhaps you need to analyze why people are calling you stupid and telling you that you know nothing. Perhaps they are not being shallow, and perhaps they are just giving you a small peice of their mind based on your half-witted, numbnutt attacks. (sorry awen, I couldnt self censor this time)

And you think this game is still going because I left then....hmmm....if only I wern't an active member of the game that plays almost nightly for at least 3-6 hours your airheaded insult might actually mean something.

//strikethrough go die in a fire //end strikethrough Go pee on an electric fence.
(awen, go die in a fire is a very old insult we "morons" like to use against people who insult is. This does not mean I actually want him to die, it just means, F off in more words.....)

I'm sorry but where exactly did I insult anyone?

And, for the record I never considered myself UBER, only good.

Re: Is there anything ND can do to raise the online numbers?

I dont have to analyze anything to say it again. The bounty system is LOADS better now!!!!!!! It is sad tho that the first thing you can do is throw insults. Yet you think that those insults alone will somehow "awe" me into shutting up and seeing it your way. Which Im sure you feel is the only way.



PS bounty system is still better now

There's a ton of old [Jumpgate Classic] players that don't know about Jumpgate Evolution and could be awaken by my suggestion of offering a few weeks of free play (or at low cost) leading up to the beta.

And I'm prety sure that having 3 FM's leading to the opening of the beta would be a MAJOR thing for us players (not to mention the rest for PvP, Flux and Miners/haulers). This would be the ultimate way of paying people back for years and years of support.

Asking the thread to be closed means you either misunderstood my idea (english is not my native language, may have failed there?) or you know something about ND's promotion strategy we don't know about?

NOTE: this refers to this post here How to draw more players for JGE - NetDevil Community
This was actually a good post....however, the whole new thread pissed me off.

There ya go. First you said I'm childish, next you said that I have poor judgement, and third you said I was KOS. I welcome the KOS, I enjoy a good fight, and I love excitement....which is VERY lacking in Jumpgate Classic right now.

And by putting me on KOS, you implied your uber, because someone who is only "good" wouldn't stand a chance against me. I'm in practice, I have extremely powerful ships at my disposal, and most importantly, the time to rebuild my wealth in the case that you are indeed uber-er than me.

Tell ya what....I'll pass this whole thing off as a misunderstanding and give you a clean slate if you want.... My PM box is always open.
