Sorry Zurk, your post was the last on the page and I missed it....

Wrong, sorry. If you harassed me as much as you have her, I would likely have told you to get a life as well.

Depends on when you last played. At the time of the fall of the Astri, lvl 6 was average. It also depends on what you do with your time. I am a lower level than most other players by todays standards.

You do realize that PK guilds of players who got bored with Era, with tags like (Gangstas) would constantly try to PK entire kingdoms worth of players and pretty much ruin events and anything else. It was people like Zoe that helped marginalize these types.

You sure can slam be good when you put your words in my mouth...Zormite has easy RP transition options, for instance, the ancient zormites live on their kingdom, trade begins, human trade settlements appear, humans become more integrated, old zormites begin to die off because of environmental or other problems.

That was 2k1. Now, if you can explain how you can recruit players to a kingdom of people who are forced to wear ugly fish heads that were very poorly drawn, without using 'great rping' like 'OMG IT WAS MAGIC AND NOW WE'RE FISH PEOPLE! OMG!' do tell.

Huge difference between thinking you are right, and being right.

I can be aggressive myself, but I try to be sure its 'my business' first. You should too. Why?.. because the wanna-be leaders of yesterday do not understand what our kingdoms are.

Do tell, what charges of corruption are these? This was about CP and if they are going down hill, and some constructive ideas to help them and the rest of GK. The brainstorming was about making things..........better, instead of recirculating yesterday's trashload of excuses of problems.

I have worked hard to improve roleplaying, and am even happy to work with people like you, if you would work with us instead of making stupid excuses.

You fail to understand when nobody at all wants you in a kingdom, you are pretty effectively not a member.

You're belief is wrong, no one in dustari wants you, and I assure you know one in zormite wants nappa. I don't care if [insert favorite music band here] had a huge influence on Nappa's life, he doesn't get to stalk them, berate them, and try to get them all to wear fish masks.

The sooner both of you accept that A) Zormite is not a fishhead kingdom (it had a chance actually but people like you ruined it with the constant fishhead and fish-fry remarks that made it really lame) and that B) no matter how aggressive you are you will not convince people to implement bad ideas, no matter how strongly you stand by them - the sooner you can constructively add to GK and stop obstructing it.

You say, nerph XP by a percent, I say, that is fine with me and I had the same idea, but I don't have a magic wand nor do I have an automatic consensus of all graalian players. So, since I know you are smart use that brain and come up with some ideas that can work and are about solutions, instead of just weak snips about how much you don't like zormite and dustari.
