I don't see why you people are jumping down Bosh's throat for the fact that he's a natural leader.. Every time Bosh has come back everyone rushes back to him and looks for his approval... No I'm not taking Bosh's side because we're buddies or anything, because by all means Bosh and I have had our MANY fights in the past due to the fact we're too much alike and too stubborn to change. I personally am sick of the whole lowbie leader idea, not for the fact that I'm saying low level players automatically equal a bad leader but they never do anything.. I think it's time we have someone that can actually mix things up again and maybe even start a few wars. I tried that with Dustari but at that time Sam didn't like the idea of Bosh and I rolling CP and had me banned during the war, forcing me out of power. With that all said though bosh is not neglecting the development side of things either, for as long as I've known the guy he's always been coming up with ideas on how to fix everything though nothing was ever done.. Now that Stephen and Tig are actually getting things out into play around here I wouldn't be surprised to see Bosh's ideas taken more seriously.

Hatred89 · #3 03-28-2008, 09:24 PM

Ideas are Ideas but who would he have to make these ideas that is not on the current staff of GK. Plus Kingdoms were not made to be played like a hot potato.

Noobie8205 · #4 03-28-2008, 10:06 PM

Every kingdom has been passed around like it were a "Hot potato" as of late.. Also I think you're underestimating Bosh in the sense he has a lot more contacts than you'd think. Don't get me wrong I'm friends the both of you hatred but I can't stand seeing everyone gang up on Bosh like he's some big bad guy set out to destroy Samurai. Bosh has been around FOREVER I personally believe he'd do Samurai a lot of good. Before you go saying "well bosh only plays for awhile then quits and that's not fair, he shouldn't be king" Yeah that may be true Bosh does come and go in waves, but when he is playing he ACTUALLY plays it's very rare to see Bosh standing around idling pissing his time away.

I know YOU are doing things for the server. I was not intending to refer to you. Your name was just in his statement, sorry about that.

i agree with stephen.
pojo4samurai leader

kia345 · #11 03-29-2008, 12:11 AM

I don't want Samurai. They lack the style that only Zormite can offer.

While I'm not interested in leading it, I have Samurai's best interests in mind when I argue with people like Bosh who jump for it.

Noobie8205 · #12 03-29-2008, 12:12 AM

How can you vote Pojo for Samurai leader? he's already leading Zormite.. wouldn't that be some what like treason against Zormite? I know you weren't serious, just simply pointing out how goofy that was.

CABAL49 · #13 03-29-2008, 12:23 AM

Pojo has worked on several items for Zormite that are to be released soon. He has been working very hard on trying to create a stronger player base for Zormite. His is a good leader.

BTW Nighthawks is Mine.

I'm also starting a new town/refurbishing the smaller island as soon as Uri finishes what he's been working to make sure I don't go over any of his.

Sure, I'm not working as some wonderful Dev, pumping out update after update, but I'm not sitting idly all day. Hell, I offered to help Draxx with gfx before I even joined Zormite, and I've been making graphics for Drake since I joined. They might not have all been added, but my brief flight of activity is alive in at least one existent wand

We all know Draxx is working, and Felix was behind a nice CP update. So it seems the only "inactive leader" you speak of Bosh, is Darklux, who's right now trying to solve that problem.

Sky · #16 03-29-2008, 12:42 AM

Lawl, Draxx has been "working" ever since I started GK and yet it's still a non-active kingdom. x.x

Bosh 4 Samurai Emp!

lordbosh · #17 03-29-2008, 12:34 AM

Then if he is a good leader, I again ask what his problem is with me, and why he wants to pick at everything I say as if he were my enemy and wanting to provoke a really nasty fight.

I don't even know Pojo, and I'm pretty sure he doesn't know me, looking at the comments. So I don't see where this animosity is coming from.

I've already made it clear: My problem with you is that you'd never even consider helping Gk if you're not rewarded for it.

BigBear3 · #19 03-29-2008, 11:33 PM

Forum PM sent to Darklux stating my desire to rule Samurai.

Drakeero · #20 03-29-2008, 04:25 AM

TL

I've talked with Bosh. We've actually had something called a discussion, and it didn't turn into hostile arguing. He's got some ideas that don't suck. It sounds like he's actually refined them some. As long as he's willing to listen to my ideas and help work something out together, and as long as he dedicates time to other things such as development and getting new content uploaded rather then war RP's. I think I'll commit blasphemy and vote for him.

Darklux · #21 03-30-2008, 02:21 PM

Yeah sadly it contained no informations about what you plans.

Seriously? I will from now on just delete pm's like "omg take me cuz iam cool" which pop in all the time >;c!

Gotcha

BigBear3 · #23 04-01-2008, 03:23 AM

Even thought I sent you that awesome PM stating how awesome I am and how I am awesome for the job and my awesome ideas about how to make Samurai awesome. I changed my mind. Nevermind.

Go Bosh.

Ravenblade1979 · #24 04-01-2008, 03:29 AM

This coming from the guy who abused his pillory and put draxx in for no reason. I don't think i would give you the chance. If you do that with power then what would you do with king rights if you decided to quit?

Darklux · #25 04-02-2008, 12:30 PM

Like Hatred did, I have to ask all Applicants to show their staffteam, so that I can know that the promised works will be done

Thanks!

First of all. I didn't quit. Zormite WAS at war with Draxx (not anymore) and EM is completely different from leading a kingdom. And why would he give me the chance? Simple. Because I'm capable. I dropped out though. That post was completely unneccesary.

lordbosh · #27 04-02-2008, 03:22 PM

These are the publicly listed people who will be working on Samurai’s development. I often times have other gfx artists which I outsource projects to when needed.

Vulcan: (Scripting, LAT, Gani) Vulcan, like John, already has debug for other reasons and is willing to assist in developing portions of Samurai that need it. His skills are well rounded.

Obs311: (LAT) John already has debug access, and I believe he has already done LAT work previously. He will be a welcome support to the LAT work needed to terraform the Samurai island.

SayianOozaru: (GFX) Sayian’s graphics have improved greatly over time, and I am confident that he will be up to the graphics challenges he faces with Samurai.

spikedude: (Gani) Amsel was the gani admin for ERA for some time, and I took note that he was able to do his job very well.

ImmortalHuman: (GFX, LAT) Satain has done GFX work previously, and is also capable of doing over world LAT work.

As for our projects, you already have a good idea of what I plan to do, and how the kingdom will look after things begin to compile together. I was not vague, and spared only the smallest details when going into describing all of what I have envisioned for the future.

You have the list of the future ranks, you have a list of the more radical item ideas, you have a list of the major projects and they are described in detail, and you now know that I have a varietied list of developers. I believe that when all of this is put together, you can see that what I bring forward is more than capable of being completed with the resources available to me.

While my team is working hard to complete these projects, we will also be building the nation in game. This is something I have proven time and time again that I can do better than anyone. I will not discuss details here due to national security issues. However I assure you, compared to what I had been doing in my last mmorpg, building up this kingdom again will be a cakewalk.

I’m qualified, my team is qualified, and the ideas will work. We’re ready and fully capable of beginning this work now, and we are determined to complete it.

Ravenblade1979 · #28 04-02-2008, 05:08 PM

Pat you still put draxx in pillory for no reason. Pretty bad when Pojo has to call me from another server to get draxx out.

@Bosh: You sound confident you will get leadership.

Draxx was whining for me to do it. Pat knows how to put on a good show and entertain people.

IMHO, it should revolve around whatever it initially did.
Keep true to the original concepts.

By not doing so, we ended up with human Zormites and friendly pirates.

They're both from the same era. So it is keeping true to original concepts.

Sounds good to me. I guess. I don't know. I don't really care that much. All I'm saying is that if Samurai started off as "No ninjas!", prospered on G2k1 as "No ninjas!", and so forth... then it should be "No ninjas!" still. But that's an "if", I'm not implying that's how it was, because I really have no clue. Being from the same era doesn't necessarily make it okay if Samurai was supposed to be strictly samurai(s?).

Oh, please, don't turn this into another "Zormites dont gotta be Zormites" argument. (though I guess you already did)

There's no good reason why the majority of Zormite should be human, and not of the Zormite race. (or even why a single Zormite should be non-Zormite)
I wasn't specifically talking about Zormite today, since I do applaud the fact that you, your subordinate leader, and possibly others use the Zormite head. But there's been plenty of times when the leaders, and almost nobody, or day I say definitely nobody, used the Zormite heads. What the hell is the purpose of having a fish-race kingdom if they won't play the role of a fish-race? It might as well be eliminated.

And your analogy fails unless you're bold enough to say that the difference between Indian humans and non-Indian humans is parallel to the difference between Zormites and humans.

I nearly laughed at my response for that, but I agree, this isn't the place.
