Rework of Old/New Ranks - Page 2

Discharge · #16 08-19-2004, 04:31 AM

I don't see how Zormite is similar to Dustari really. Zormite seems like it’s out of the medieval period and into modern day nation. What I don’t understand is how it can be a republic when there is a dictator in control. I presume there’s something that I do not understand here, so someone fill me in.

On the first page I addressed that question. Here is a direct link to the post:

OK i personally after looking at the new ranks have a problem: This puts me in MoD, with Fitzwilliam. I am not sure if he is still the strategus, but if he is, this is unfair to me. I quit MoD originally because him and I do not get along at all. I do not think it is fair to me to be put back under his leadership, as he will still probably do the same basic things for ranks (not trying to sound powerhungry mentioning that i wont get ranks, srry if it seems that w ay) and overall leaderhsip of MoD i did not like, that is why I changed my ministry over. Now I have two things against me, my commander doesnt like me and i dont like the rank system (And dont say join another ministry im tired of that). I am hoping there will be some sort of soloution towards this, if not then I will do what I can to cope with it, though i will be unhappy. Thanks.

The solution: You adjust.

There is nothing wrong with the ranks at all, yo. Being in the kingdom isn't about trying to get a high rank so that you can be all bossy and be the leader with power and crap, because, well, even in a high rank you can't be. There simply aren't enough players in the kingdom for that to be the point. "WHOO I R AT THE TOP!! TIME TO BOSS ...um...three people around...yay...

"

And fitzwilliam is liek, a totally neutral leader, yo.

You think I hold a petty grudge...? You think little of me. The problem we had was solved when I destroyed you in a mono e mono fight (:

If you have a problem with an order present a strong argument against it, and I'll consider

Besides, I pretty much let the higher ranking member of that sub section control their people, and I control those members. *shrug*

[EDIT]

Although for anyone who's just tuning in - I was cruel to him. He questioned my ability (which is healthy, everyonce in a while) but what really got me was he said "Man, I wish I had of started playing 5 months before him, then I could be strategus."

^ And he says he's no power hungry. Uh oh.

I challenged him to a duel (I was lvl 25, and he was lvl 12) I won, naturally - but going into the duel he was certain he would win, I forget what it was for, but there was a bet, if he won, if I lost...etc. I still have his finger in my house.

[/EDIT]

[EDIT2]

We're getting off subject, and we got off subject when he brought up his problem - the grudge. Perhaps you can PM me "Falco" (short name)

I have nothing wrong with the ranks, it was shake'n'nake, and I helped

[/EDIT2]

OK i hate when people misinterpret what i say.... It's like this, i have no problem with new rank names and organization, I just wasn't happy that fitz was gonna be my leader. Also i wasn't complaining that i couldnt rank fast, i was complaining that if i had to do the same system (Dueling him to get a rank) I would be stuck at the same rank the whole time. But as he says he'll leave it to the leaders of the subsets, i should be fine. Also Fitz as for the duel, the dseetails were this, which he always leaves out: I was sure i cou;ld win because of one reason; he had very low magic resistance, about the same as someone else that was an even higher level, and onelarge bullet took 1/3 of their health, while when i hit fitz with near 15 of them, it barely took half of his health, if i had known that, i never would have challenged him. But that's over now... Also saying if i wa s in 5 months earlier to be strategus doesnt make me power hungry, i was just stating that I thought i would be a more just leader in rankups, not that i really wanted that position, i couldnt run a ministry right now neway, way too busy... If i missed anything from the quotes that i need to contradict to make me look awesome again, lemme know lol.

You couldn't run a ministry, period. Sorry

falco10291029 · #23 08-29-2004, 02:24 AM

Who are you to know if I could run a ministry, I dont even know you. So shut up before making dumb comments like that.

Let's not throw mud at each other. He's the second in command of the MoD, my assistant and cousin Ruatha Vimes. We're off topic, this thread was created to discuss the new ranks, please stay on topic.
