I would say you could organise the top 10 factions to do this. All talking with eachother. it would have to be a complete non participation as their regens are insane so going free would still look like they were trying and then they would all point fingers at eachother and then shoot at eachother. Just have the top 10 leaders say any of you guys score more than 10wd points you are out. And have them booted from all top 10 teams.
No, it's not what you think. It's much, much worse!
So you only spend what you spend because someone else tells you to?Originally Posted by robmurphy
If so, that's even worse than why the addicts spend.

Danger Mouse are you in a top 10 faction?
(This is not a digg, just a polite question).
Not any more. I was for the better part of a year, and top 25 for another two years. Decided enough was enough just before equipment reared its ugly head. Why?

Just wondered, (i've never been higher than 154th place, once).
I am just trying to better understand where you are coming from. Not that it means sod all, but i did used to respect you from your posts, what i read now is a bitter angry person posting, so i'm trying to see it from your side but failing.
I'll leave it at that...
More frustrated than angry. I gave up on angry a very long time ago. This could be a brilliant game, it was a brilliant game. Other games with less potential than this get the mix right no problem. Not here. Now it's Captain Ahab.

This particular thread is difficult enough without childish comments. Do not insult me.
I play with a team because I want to. It is my choice to do so. It is part of the enjoyment of the game.
It's funny how everything erodes back to troll comments. Perhaps it's simply the Second Law of Thermodynamics.....
Reading too fast rob? It was merely a question trying to clarify a statement you made.

I couldn't be bothered arguing this point with you. It's an irrelevant distraction.
I didn't realize we were arguing. You made a statement that I was simply trying to better understand and look at from your perspective. I just wanted to be sure I wasn't making false assumptions and was seeking some clarification. If you choose not to answer, that's your perogitive, but only leads to the possibility of even more erroneous assumptions.

I will say this. While you may not see it from his point of view, his ranking in the game makes no difference. I've never been higher than 200, but been at every spot between there and 2000. It's rather simple actually. It's frustration at seeing something you once enjoyed, and would still like to enjoy, being destroyed by excessive greed and incompetence on one side, and apathy and excessive ego on the other. The frustration is born from being stuck right smack in the middle and not being able to get either side to budge an inch.

Hmmm.
I am part of a team. That team has a leader. The leader tells us what the plan is. We either follow or don't (i.e. leave).
It's a war game.
I would LOVE things to get better in MW, and as I've already said, if the leaders of the top few factions agree to request there players to fight a non-gold war, then I do what I just stated - follow or don't.
Similarly if our leader asked me to score 10* normal WD points, I either follow or don't. It's all about respecting the chain of command in this war game.
Being part of a faction is probably the most enjoyable part of this game for me.
Sigh...... I think the saddest part of this thread is deep down inside we all want the same thing. For the game to return to when it was fun, vibrant and full of great people playing.
Unfortunately it has degenerated into a disorganized mess further exaspirated by a breakdown in communication between the company and it's customers. I feel that at one point many would have stuck around and continued to spend if the value was still there. It isn't once you drop into the beginner and lower levels which are populated with one player factions or factions with a whale for a DL and then filled out with non participating LLPs.
I also feel that everyone is entitled to there opinions on both sides of this disaGREEment but seriously the game is going down the toilet and we all want it saved but in all honestly I now feel it is too late. Why a lot of us older timers have given up providing suggestions on how to pull out of the tailspin or just logging in here other than to see when the plug got pulled since this game is on serious life support.

So Rob, you are able to form your own opinion as to what is good and bad with the game, and even what steps may help to improve it, but are unable or unwilling to take any action because someone else hasn't told you to? Is this correct?
Further questions to follow.

I'm not frustrated and I'm in the middle. If people want to spend on something they enjoy... good luck to them. As for incompetence on behalf of the company, that does look the case, but I don't see apathy and ego on the other side, just well organised factions that do what they want to with Their! Own! Money!
Like I said much much earlier. Go yell at the company and its representatives, stop picking away at the players. It's a free choice. No one makes people play.
