Spite and Malice.... - Page 10

Inshallah!

WOW....

I have been lost to RL for over a month and a half... After reading this thread (It took 2 days to get through it), I think I am going to stay there a bit longer. It is a shame that folks need to bicker back and forth (so viciously) over something that doesn't really matter.

What have we all learned from all this?

I have learned that Civ is a Machiavellian game and as long as folks want to play the game emotionally (that is ...allow it to affect their actual emotional state), there will be interpersonal problems to contend with and the emotions will drasticly affect diplomacy.

I have also learned that in a forum..."No matter how careful you are, what people say is different than what they mean which is different from what is heard by others"

These days I have FAR more importent things to be doing, so I regret not doing my share here, but in all reality, does any one of us really need this shite?

Remember...
Don't take life so seriously. You'll never get out of it alive.

Mss

Oh, and a BIG amen to Theseus and MSS

Hey I just had an idea. It seems to be primarily GS people who are getting offended and then leave the game due to MZ's posts. Maybe we should let MZ loose and then we can take out their whole team!

Then we just have to fight Roleplay.

That wouldn't work. There is an ignore feature, you know.

MZ is right ... Everyone else is wrong

BigFree, you just proved what should really be my thesis project:

No matter what obscure thread from whatever obscure forum in Apolyton, should you or anyone mention the name "panag", *poof* panag magically appears!!!

I've only used that once. but the temptation to always click the link to see the ignored post was always too strong...

Or maybe you should go even further and use this argument, among many others which I'm sure you can think about, to prove that panag is a (somewhat) advanced version of the famous Eliza bot, if you ever take a class in Artificial Intelligence.
Shouldn't be too hard.

Shiber · August 31, 2003, 10:51

Come on, I was kidding.
The average tease in this forum is much harsher than my post, so take it easy. Or, if it really offends you when people impersonate you, just say so (via PM if you want) and I won't do it again.

Have a nice impersonation

Of course we can't. Not if you keep razing them behind you.

Darekill · September 1, 2003, 16:14

Oh! What a surprising and entire new dtrategy!
I think pulling a Lux is the word. Don't tell us we didn't learn from the past. Just to avoid any misunderstandings if need be even ND will pull a Lux.....

hi ,

none , since some people take certain things way to serious instead of playing , .....

there is one that gets my support ( in secret bien sure ) , .....

have a nice day

Shiber · September 2, 2003, 00:39

Darekill: well, I can only applaud GoW and ND for taking note of the strategies used by other teams and adopting the effective ones.
Not that we had any doubts that GoW would pull a Lux in Valencia anyway.

Panag: it brings warmth and joy to my heart to see you speak of team spirit and having fun together and then in the next post diss every team but one because they don't follow your taste in how the game should be played.

P.S. What is this "secret bien" that you speak of? It certainly must be a secret, since I've never heard of anything that sounds (or is spelled) like that...

Feel free to march on any city you wish Shiber.
It just makes it harder for Roleplay to stop being your vassals. Driving yet another nail into their coffin. Your **cough cough choke ** allies, must love it when you force us to destroy their cities.

Certainly we dont mind.

Shiber · September 2, 2003, 03:00

1-pop towns can cost a lot to conquer and/or destroy, but only 30 shields to replace.
The way I see it, this is the most cost-effective manner of reclaiming the south.

Exactly.

The filth and stench left behind by GoW or ND invaders is God awful. We would probably have to burn every city you've been in just to get rid of the smell anyways!

The LAND is what is important and of course the people, but you (GoW) like to kill innocent civilians anyways (Bilbao), so there was no stopping you anyways.

There is a distinct difference here, Darkill.

We are not slaughtering our own citizens. If you ask me, the Spaniards deserve nothing short of death to begin with.

Hmm I dont know about that.
GoW got four towns very cheaply.

This is true.

But the stench is from your own citizens.
Everyone knows Spaniards dont shower.
