Uh oh! Looks like to me Chris Vimes wanted Geo to have a taste of getting knocked off the big time like he did when he was gone. You sly devil you.

Nothing wrong with hiring friends if they can do the job. If you "can't trust your friends to not screw up", then you have the wrong friends and were probably the wrong choice for manager anyway.

Also, I'm sure this'll come back to "****, we should've kept Chris"

Even if they did keep Chris, he said he was resigning the same day anyways.

Sounds familiar.

And good luck Kinetaro, we've had some history but you're much better of a Manager than Geo.

Not exactly, Chris knew it was coming. Chris also did a lot of abusive crap to players he didnt like, and had many chances to fix his ways.

Geo had no chance to fix anything, so it's definitely different.

Chris, works all day on Era, he even paid for developers (crow) to work on the German/dutch translations. Out of his own pocket. Any time something was brought up, he'd develop it if it was reasonable. (Gun racks, Hotkeys)

If he spawned some sewer elixirs to pk more fluently, or he dragged you around the gmap for three seconds, does that make him a bad Manager? He can't enjoy what he's worked to build?

It's not that he wanted to keep his job forever, he just wanted a peaceful exit. It's sad i had to write all this after it's been said so many times, and you still don't get it.

No. But if he spawns money and items and ruins the economy, yes

That was his decision, by the way. I'd have done it for free, but he gave me a little something for translating all that stuff.

Hotkeys were already created before this, gun racks, yeah he did a good job... Still, it wasn't just adding sewer elixirs to himself, he gave out spawned nukes, supers, sewers, etc to other members of his gang. He gave an advantage to one group of players, and made sure his gang's gun was better than other gangs.

You are a close friend of his, it's obvious your opinion of his management is going to be great. I am going to disagree with you, I thought quite the opposite.

Chris is a great scripter, and a hard worker, but that's all the credit I can give him.

kinetaro always seems to be away alot, but gl to him with manager.

also, i think GC's staff team was pretty decent...

I logged on at 6 am this morning to see GC as Manager and Wil Soul as GBA...so what did I miss?

do you realize how hypocritical that is? you're Geo's friend from the beginning.

Just because of my ties with Chris, it doesn't change the fact everything he's done equals out to more than a free few EC. He enhanced the game for some players, made them enjoy the game a lot more for a few moments. It's not like it mattered to him if his gang was winning, be serious.

dudeluve2 · #45 08-14-2010, 06:47 PM

Wait, how many account has Venom_Fish (Wil Soul) took control of?
