Topic: What has become of IC...?

I cleared a person who is more then like 20-30 ticks away an this is a msg i get...


Week 15, 7

nobody else was in that system except for me and XxX. and that system is 2 ticks out the way of other system, either way, that system is going to stay ours. We/I can always do some grabs of your bankers to prove my point...if needed wink

Signed, ?? of ?? (????)

   
Week 15, 7

u sure that you want to start fighting with me?

Signed, ?? of ?? (????)


what has become if IC players, this game is no longer fun anymore... before this was a place were ppl could come an relax though now I can see why this is becoming a dieing game... because of ppl like this... see i know this is only a game but a game like this you need new ppl to keep it going, though if ppl start sending msg's like this its going to put ppl off......




IC has gone to the Dogs.......

People send threat messages all the time. It is only a form of strategy. tongue

My fam received a shit load of them last round. They hope to scare you into not doing anything. If you do that, you're just playing into their game.

Re: What has become of IC...?

true though... this is one on the lighter side though, i have recived ones i couldnt not post up here, (im sure u know why)... i know this is a type of strategy but there should be a limit... i am in PW atm an this is the galaxy where all the new ppl come, an if u use this type of strategy almost 60% of the new ppl will stop playing...  so there should be a rule u cant use msg like this in pw at least its ok in other galxys as ppl know its a type of strategy... though there shouild be a limit as if ppl start to drive ppl way from ic, IC will no longer be here later as ppl will start to get sick of these msg's an just stop playin ic...

though this is my idea... not sure how u all feel...

Re: What has become of IC...?

99 Your mesages are no where near as bad as the ones we got. Then followed by some very cheap shots during Expo.

A smaller fam comes into our core demands a nap or he starts nuking bankers. Guess what we would have gladly signed a nap with a family over 40 ticks from our core with the second largest family in between, if simply asked politely.

We tell him no we will consider if he leaves, but we sign nothing with a gun to our head. He messes with our attackers a bit and discovers they are too difficult then targets our weakest banker and hits 19 of his planets deletes all buildings and leaves them undefended except what lasers where there.

Now it is too late we will not rest. He did more damage than several days of nukes could do. But he underestimates our resolve. Our family is full of happy joking people who have zero tolerance for bullying. Even our attackers tried to lighten the mood by sending links to funny videos related to his name. But the simpleton simply continued to push our buttons.  This style of play will be eradicated by all means possible.

Our familly has several old vets who are much cooler thinking than I am. They continuously forbid me from nuking until a declaration of war was made. They have honor and like to laugh and joke with other players even while competing for virtual property. They play as it should be, and I am honored to be with such great people.

Re: What has become of IC...?

just ignore it


presicely the fun of IC is that you can be attacked, there's no fun if you arent attacked in a entire round hmm

Re: What has become of IC...?

Seems to me that the message you posted isn't that bad "Don't hit me or i'm going to hit your bankers" - he's just letting you know tongue there's nothing wrong with hitting bankers.

I'd say that one is just (not a bad) part of the game and you need to accept it - it's when people fly off the hook with cursing, bragging, and general craziness you have to really watch out tongue

Re: What has become of IC...?

I do agree that it is a form of tactic that alot of people I've fought against have certainly used, I tend to ignore them as it's just scare tactics 9/10 times (in my experience) alot of growl and no bite. It's when people fly off the hook like windowsME said or bombard you with them that really grinds my gears ^^

This is what IC has became, stop whining about it, no one is gonna change it. It sucks to say, but its the truth. Only thing you can do is leave cuz nobody cares.

Re: What has become of IC...?

It is not just IC really. People will say things and make comments on the internet they would never make to a person standing in front of them. And people in general do not value respect, proper english and manners like they use too. We are all a little guilty here.

But do not let someones tone or language chase you from something you enjoy. IC certainly wont be the last you run into this.

Re: What has become of IC...?

i dont think this guy is talking about the language people use.
i think he is talking about the way people act if you attack 1 planet, i mean wtf people think they can claim systems cause it is "their" core or something, i remember that when i played a lot it was normal that you get attacked in the beginning and sure you can attack back but some people behave like you just insulted their mother, they really need to find another hobby

Re: What has become of IC...?

This is not what IC has become. This is what IC has always been.

Since when have people not sent threatening messages upon being attacked?

Re: What has become of IC...?

i agree with the man in the messeges...was ?? his real name? anyways...i dont think anyone should EVER attack someone else...thats why the game is dieing. People should learn to get along and love each other. Im not talking about one or two alliences...im talking about the WHOLE GALEXY...all joining one big illigal allience smile

Re: What has become of IC...?

acting smart? i am smart. the only way for us to end galactic conflict and earn peace is to hold hands and sing.  there is no act here, just pure intelegence. it worked for the hippies.  Now one round we ought to try attacking NO ONE. after this im sure you will all agree this game is better without it.  In fact, it may save IC

Re: What has become of IC...?

waht are you complaining about? equality is a step up for some of you tongue no longer will compare fleets and decide he who has the bigger fleet is the BIGGER man (and when a girl tells you it doesnt matter , you know girls talk backwards, so it means it does). No longer will you have to erect your forces in conflict with another man. no longer will thier be betrals, attacks from behind, and all that good stuff. we can all be eqal. we can coexist , that we can.

/me holds pixies hand , and holds other hand out for whoever else will take a hand to end war and save ic
