You always show displeasure towards me on specific accounts, and then friendliness on others. I'm the same person, always will be.  :cry:


Might I add, you apologized for it once before.  :rolleyes:

Does that mean there will be 2 leaders? Like a Shogun and a... Ninja master?

Never knew you drew that Muki, it's pretty cool. Lots of emphasize on certain parts, but no one's complaining  :wink:

Zylorage might be master ninja, but I think he is reverting to samurai now. And no we wouldn't have two leaders. A master ninja is still a servant to the shogun. Same as a master samurai lol.

We would love to have you Zoleta and Musashi, but you both can't be kensei! xD

However, we prefer to have main characters for strategus, so we can't accept any alts in our clan. Feel free to use our banner in battle or siege though. Just understand that being part of the clan officially means more than just wearing a banner.   :wink:

BANNED! HAR HAR HAR HAR!

We've gotta get down a day of the week (or two) that we can practice. Our individual skills are commendable, but I've noticed that when the clusterfuck starts, we all end up hitting each other as much, if not more than, we hit the enemies. We can also work on anyone's Dueling skills (if they need help), as well as having everyone learning to be proficient with both the Blade AND the Spear, regardless of wpf/class.

More good news gents, a mysterious someone was kind enough to set up a steam group for us, which should make inter-clan communication easier, and TS less of a requirement (not that it is now, but it's a great help) http://steamcommunity.com/groups/Red_Lotus

I noticed that I'm rank 1, so how do I rank up? By beating people in duels or something?

Thanks lolz, and yes Zoleta, you are practically the last skillful ronin in NA. You always have a spot with us. I'm sure you could pass the challenges.

And Spanish, lol, yeah it has been fun, frustrating at times, but fun :P. Don't forget about all of your archer support though. They play major rolls in our cav matches. ;)

I will say this, Hospitaller archers have encouraged some of our members to pick up archery. You have taught us well the difficulties of an archerless clan vs a clan with many.

In-depth ranking system:

(click to show/hide)



If this player that's applying for Koshogumi can defeat 3 other officers all at once than those 3 officers don't deserve to be officers or the guy applying deserves to be much higher rank....
Title: Re: Red Lotus [Under Construction]
Post by: Auphilia on February 28, 2012, 04:18:07 am
The challenge for Koshogumi is against Samurai and Churo ranks. Officers would only participate under the condition that we did not have enough samurai/churo available.

Also, the rank of Koshogumi is skill based. It has nothing to do with leadership and administrative ability. I'd rather have competent leaders than skillful ones.  Thankfully, all of my officers are some of the most skillful samurai in this clan, so this wouldn't be a problem anyways. There is not a single samurai in NA who could best three of my officers at once.  :wink:

Try using the same weapons we use, if you want the same difficulty we have when facing each other.

A lot of clans use a bunch of OP weapons, purely because they are OP lol. We used the gimped stuff, because it's awesome :P

I'm probably the only person in NA using the hafted blade right now. It isn't a great weapon, but it looks cool, and I do fine with it.

I mean we already understand that longswords are better than katanas, and a lot of armors out spec strange armor, etc. And that ranged and throwing demolishes us lol. We just picked a theme and roll with it. I can beat myself with European weapons and armor too, doesn't make me better than myself.  :wink:

Would be really cool to start seeing more theme based clans though. When I was a noob I imagined that Chaos would be a bunch of barbarian looking dudes with mainly axes.

 Still, i'm glad to see you guys doing this theme, although I don't think the Katana is gimped at all, but inf act an awesome weapon!

So pretty much a Rhodok theme? Nice illustration btw.

Also on the katana, would you not say that a longsword is better than a katana in most cases? If it is better, then why does the katana cost 150% the price of a longsword? Steep price to pay for something that can get out-ranged by a one-hander. I won't even start on the wakizashi's cost efficiency.

Let's not forget how the yumi's projectile speed is slow enough to catch the arrow in midair. Which contradicts physics entirely. The single factor that should make one bow do more damage than the next, is projectile speed. Nothing else. There really is no good excuse for the yumi, imo.

But yeah :P katana is fun and awesome, just there are cheaper and better weapons.

Five samurai and none of them can best the Lotus Challenge  :mrgreen:

All of you are basically equal in skill. To defeat three samurai is to defeat yourself three times in a row. One must train hard to achieve this, three times harder than the rest. When you finally become a Churo, you will know you earned it. That is the way of the lotus.  :wink:

I wish you all luck. I am eager to see who will be first.

I've been waiting until I leveled up a little. Also until enough people were on.

But yeah, I'll take the challenge whenever you guys are ready. I'd also be willing to fight some higher ranking dudes instead, if there aren't enough samurai around.

By the way, what happens if you fail one of the challenges? Can you just try again whenever?

Title: Re: [RL] Red Lotus
Post by: Rusty_Shacklefjord on March 10, 2012, 01:59:43 pm
I think we have too many ranks.

There, I said it.

Half of them aren't even being used, and the names are so unfamiliar that I don't think most people can tell one from the other, anyway. In my opinion we should cut it down to 5-6 ranks. Something like:

- Leader
- Senior officers (diplomat, council, landowners, ect)
- Officers
- Senior samurai
- Samurai
- Recruits

Would be better. Recruits would be promoted to samurai after getting set up in strat and getting a recommendation. Samurai would be promoted to sr. samurai after completing the lotus challenge (which we still haven't had anyone do, including officers). Then the officers and sr. officers would be picked by the shogun.

These are just place-holder names, but you get my point. We'd have people in pretty much every rank, with most of them being samurai, which is an easily recognizable mid-tier rank - instead of a bunch of ashigaru and koyakunin and ect.

I do like the special titles though. Maybe we could do one for the red lotus challenge, instead of a rank, since I'm really doubting that many (or any) people will complete it. We could also do a 'yojimbo' rank or something for the shogun's bodyguards, like how TKoV and Hospitaller have kingsguards.

I dunno, just a thought.

To be fair, that challenge all depends on who you're matched up against. If someone like Mori had a bunch of our new recruits, it'd be a breeze.

To be fair, Mori's one of the best samurai around. And anyway, if it's that easy for them they'd probably deserve the promotion, right?

It just seems to me that it would be better to streamline the lower ranks into more representative groups. 'Recruits' are noobs that can barely block, 'samurai' are decent players that mostly break even, and 'sr. samurai' are good players that are credit to team. By beating other samurai 3 times in a row, they're differentiating themselves from the group and showing that they're more skilled than those other samurai. If that's not enough, you could add something like what the ninja clan has for their requirements - a screenshot of you in the top 3 of your team with 7 kills or top 1 with 15 kills.

No matter, I hope you are all doing well. It pains me to be away for so long, I'll probably pop in every so often at least in these forums. I should be back in a week? Two? Longer? I don't know.

I feel that my absence has let the Red Lotus clan down, but hear me, my loyal samurai, upon my return, if this clan is still functional, we will march to glorious victory!

I miss you all!

I will also add that multiple hospitaller officers (including Peppovitch) told me personally that we could expect non-hostility from them. A man is nothing if not his word, and the hospitallers have broken theirs. I do not appreciate that and have lost a lot of respect for them. I am even more insulted that they would simply attack my fief without ever speaking to me or messaging ME about it. This action speaks nothing but betrayal. It is no surprise that Red Lotus would be betrayed the moment I turned my back. Such shame. Such dishonor.

However, it is interesting that we are still offered land, in spite of it being stolen from us. Not asked for, not negotiated for, not even the courtesy to personally message the shogun what the hospitalizes intentions are, the fief was simply stolen. 

Land can easily be restored, honor can not.

I would have been more than happy to join your TS and discuss diplomatics with hospitallers, if you had only taken the fief and only because of the reasons you mentioned, however, you are also attacking unarmed, non-threatening RL members. There is absolutely no excuse for this. I will allow your reply before coming to any ultimate conclusion.

I will also add that multiple hospitaller officers (including Peppovitch) told me personally that we could expect non-hostility from them. A man is nothing if not his word, and the hospitallers have broken theirs. I do not appreciate that and have lost a lot of respect for them.

Hey RL! . Sorry about the Uslum attack, but it has been promised to a clan that helped us in the war against the Fallen and  the Greens.  We are willing to work with you to relocate you to another village nearby.   Come talk with us in our TS so we can work something out.
  I don't know if you got this or not.

Well I won't come to any conclusions about the clan until I return and can evaluate things myself. I can only hope for minimal casualties/deserters.  :|

This is why it is important to have officers who can maintain the clan in the absence of its leader. Unfortunately, I was unable to properly establish and prepare such officers before my leave. With that said, I apologize for burdening any officers and for depriving our loyal samurai attention and organization.

The absence of the shogun has brought our clan misery.  :cry:



[Edit]

Yes, I read that. He "apologized" after attacking. Yet he is still attacking our members even today, which drastically reduces the sincerity of his apology, and makes it more so insulting and mocking.

Mori left? And from my talks with Peppo, the hospitaller member is acting of his own accord, and I hope to see him punished for it.

I haven't been super active myself, what with just getting my license and all, but I'm usually on late at night!! All alone in the TS!!
Title: Re: [RL] Red Lotus
Post by: Auphilia on March 22, 2012, 11:01:45 pm
Well again, I'm sorry I've been away, and will continue to be away for some time. I have a lot of stuff to take care of, to speak simply.

Earthdforce, go ahead and give Ohayashi rank 10 as well, we kinda need a leader on at all times and if you and Mori aren't active, I think Ohayashi would be the next best choice.

On another note, all of those who wish to leave the clan, have my blessings to do so. I don't want to keep people from having fun just because I expect them to be loyal lol. Go ahead and play the game the way you guys want to and with whatever clans you want to. When I return I may or may not resurrect the Red Lotus, it will depend on how many members I have.

I started this clan with Mori and myself. Then the first two people I recruited were Zylorage and Muki, personal friends of mine whom I had spoken to for a long time about making this clan. It appears all of the founders of this clan have left or become inactive. When I return, it will be heavy on my heart to continue this clan without those who helped me create it. I will only do this if those who are currently loyal to this clan expect to be so for a long time. Otherwise we are all wasting our time and burdoning ourselves with gimped weapons and armor.

In the even that this clan does fall apart before my return, I will likely start a new clan all together, for those who are interested. A more heavily armed knightly order that is bound to gods of its own. Whatever happens, I hope I can still play with all of my friends, with or without sharing banners.

Let us remember those who have served the Red Lotus and who have fallen under our banner, whether by their own hand, the hand of our enemies, or by the lotus...the hand of the Shogun.

I guess I'm out too, then.

It's been fun, but the gear restrictions are starting to chafe. I'll probably still have a STF ninja/samurai alt, but I'm done being a dedicated samurai.

Anyway, good luck. It'd be a shame if this badass weaboo clan were to die so soon.

And our numbers dwindle even further. Apologies for my absence, it's just getting to the point where I start up the game, Spawn, and find myself thinking or even saying out loud "I don't wanna play this." and then play a few rounds and shut the game down. I made this "issue" (if that's what we'd like to call this) known to Kimiko prior to my absence, and they understood.

I'm sad to see the clan kinda falling apart, but having been part of larger clans and having the exact same thing happen, I understand. I just hope that when Kimiko finishes whatever pressing issues they have, there'll be something to come back to. If not, it's been fun playing with you guys while it lasted :D. I'll still be around until we're formally disbanded, so hopefully that'll be for a while yet.

Herro.

This is most depressing to read. We cannot be simply defeated by lack of members. Everything goes through this and we must keep our goal in mind. UNITE ALL SAMURAI ACROSS THE LAND. Maybe we could broaden our scope slightly and adjust to uniting all Asian Gear Wearers (Mongols included). I will not let this defeat us, we must stand strong and never lose faith.

Also, that Hospitaller attack was BS but when you get back i'll elaborate more. STEAM ME and hope all is well.

RL Busho Kyudo Yuuko.

Sorry for assuming then Mori, I just saw that you had "Faction: Ronin" instead of "Faction: Red Lotus" so that lead me to believe you resigned x.X

As for steam, I can't install it on here because this isn't my computer lolz. Everyone in my family has technophobia and are very skeptical of me touching their computers fearing I will infest them with nasty scary viruses. Ironically, they all come to me when they need anything fixed anyways x.X.

But yeah, I understand when someone doesn't want to play, I found myself not wanting to play almost every time I got on as well. It just felt more like a chore than a game lol. I spent more time with diplomatics and recruitment and clan business than actually playing the game. I'm definitely prepared to reorganize everything so that we can manage the clan more efficiently and all play together. If that means less strategus, then so be it.

Oh, and I hope someone is keeping up with diplomacy and strategus >.>
Gotta know whats going on around the map before we can make any major moves. If nothing else, at least we should be crafting.

As a relatively new member I am not as involved as some of you, but I know a few things. first, I have only encountered two players above the rank of samurai which is frustrating and somewhat discouraging, second, i would dearly love to see this clan prosper, as I love the Bushido code and am a personal student of Jujitsu (in the traditional Japanese style), third, my strategus character was attacked in transit with a force of 4 soldiers and a lot of gold and goods by a hospitaller.  This shocked me, as I had heard of no war or disagreements at this point.  I would like to express my condolences for the loss of the some 1500 gold and 5 katanas that I was delivering to the clan leaders, and assure you that I will remain loyal on strategus, endeavouring to return from my desert exile, and to the Shogun, for better or worse.

And a better contest of skill would be to use the exact same weapons, and relatively the same armor. Everyone knows the lolsword beats the katana. I have no problem with natives challenging samurai lol, it is just that they pretend that it is an even fight when one side is using gimped weapons and the other uses the most ridiculously easy weapons in the game. A one handed weapon can out-range a katana with relatively the same speed lol. I won't even start on how gimped the wakizashi or the yumi bow is.

Besides this game is bias against our superior combat reflexes and acrobatics:

A clan dies when the members let it die.

Ninjas is a clan that has scratched the bottom so many times only to rise again. I remember back in fall 2010 when there were only 2 ninjas active in the ninja clan. We had both joined within 2 weeks. We stuck around, and suddenly Thomek, our notoriously absent leader returned and then old members started to come back and we started getting new recruits aswell. This fall we had fairly few members and people were preaching that ninjas are dead(again) and then suddenly we started getting new recruits and a few old members returned. This cycle has happened many times, and will happen again.

Ninjas going strong since June 2010  :wink:

Just some relatively old wisdom from a stubborn ninja.

Kimi's been MIA for the past 2 or 3 weeks. That's what led to this whole uncertainty debacle in the first place. With me and Mori not really wanting to take the reigns, and Earth'd trying to and then not wanting too (I... guess?), that leaves RL in a sort of Limbo where we're not officially dead, but we're not really active and doing anything.

Kimi predicted they'd be back sometime last week... or was it the week before? I don't remember, but essentially, they're tied up in Real World matters. I've personally been playing other games because I needed a break from this game, or it'd get to the point that instead of saying "Why did I start this up", I'd be saying "Why is this even installed on my computer?". I get on every once in a while, but nowhere near the amount of time I used to play it.

Anyway, seeing as the Clan is in Limbo, and no one's really stepping up to lead it (to where, who knows), Your options at this point are to keep on truckin along waiting for kimi to come back, play something else (and continue to wait), or find a new clan. *Shrug*

Also, Lemmy, you're a hamster up a gay mans ass. You shut your whore mouth!

Love,
Zylo

i just think it's funny hearing we get new recruits and then never seeing them. if you need a leader someone has to step up to the plate or send all the new people to me and i'll tell them what to do. if we don't try something then the clan is dead which means everyone gave up because one person isn't here. PATHETIC, but if that's what it is then i'm out.

My theory is the reason this clan hinged on kimi was because
1. This was his clan that he wanted to start and lead
2. He's the only one that was "in a position of authority" in the clan who actually had the motivation to do any of the leading. Like I previously said, the rest of us didn't want to/didn't care to. No motivation to keep a clan alive = dying/dead clan.

I find this fairly interesting. I find the concept of "leader" in small clans humorous. Even though, that's what I am myself. In a small clan everyone knows eachother and the dynamic is more like a group of friends, rather than a hierarchy. You do not need a leader to tell you what to do, just have fun within the rules of the clan. Want to play together? Do it. You don't need a leader for it. If it takes some organizing, then organize.

Everyone sitting waiting to be told what to do and then leaving if you're not told what to do is silly. But then again, ninjas has a core group of loyal members who enjoy playing with ninjas but also don't mind being alone from time to time. If you require constant presense from your clanmates, then choosing a bigger clan is smarter.

Post by: Zekerage on April 19, 2012, 11:26:31 am
First off, Tanken, I already has :D. I'm itching to play with my War spear again, if anything, though.

Secondly, I've come to a conclusion as to why I personally don't really play/enjoy this game anymore. (This will help me in responding to Khorin.) The thing that I've come to realize about why I don't enjoy CRPG anymore is because of one or two simple things. Goals and Progression. After spending 1500+ hours on this mod alone, I feel I can safely say I've "done my time." I've done almost every "serious" build, I've got a fair number of heirlooms, I'm Gen 19 (would probably be at LEAST high 20's had I not respecced so much, literally throwing xp out of the window), and while it Is fun from time to time to hop on and play with all the people I've come to enjoy playing with over the past year and a half or so, there's just not much left for Crpg to offer. Yeah, it's got an extremely unique melee combat system, but again, I've played with it so much. Pertaining to progression, I can buy or trade for anything I want, so there's no sense of accomplishment, no goals to work towards that I'd care about (I don't care about trying to get a full loomed set of armor or a loom of every weapon, etc..). basically, it's just stale, for me, at this point.

After reading that back to myself, I don't know if that answers Khorin from my personal perspective, but what I'm getting at is that Kimiko, having the enthusiasm of running this clan and actively trying to get us to all meet up on the duel server, join battles and (attempt) to roll the server, etc..., in that aspect, he is very much the "leader" that we need. As it stands, the rest of us are just likely to hop on, play a few rounds, maybe go into TS to see if anyone's on, maybe join them for a little bit, but that's about it.

TL;DR - I like to ramble a lot about nothing of importance. Who knows if any of this is relevant.

I should have my computer again tomorrow. As for internet, I predict a week at most. Sorry for my long absence.

This was my first large clan, and I have learned a lot from it. I want to thank all of you who put in effort towards the Red Lotus, whether you be within the clan or not. None of you are obligated to continue being loyal to this clan. You have all done your part, and I expect nothing more. No one is responsible for the undoing of this clan aside from myself. I regret that I simply did not have enough time to better organize and fortify the Red Lotus. We were far from prepared for such an inconvenience as the absence of the shogun.

I look back, not at our demise, but at our accomplishment. We started stronger than any force before us, and we did not stop, we did not waver. We marched to an unfamiliar battlefield and claimed it as our own. Our name, our banner, our courage, and our honor all struck fear into the hearts of our enemies. We came to these lands not for wealth, but for glory, and glory we found in our deaths. Let this not be forgotten.

#3 Never surrender

Thank you father Digglez.

And you are the absolute first person, since I've left, to have seen groups of weaboos fighting together. They must not have been RL. Maybe they would have been in RL had I zerg recruited them.  :wink:

And I know how to manage my officers. The main issue was that the majority of officers lacked interest in leading. It had nothing to do with trust.

Consider the likeliness of finding strong leaders among the crpg community who aren't already in a clan, who want to roleplay a samurai, who have the time to dedicate to clan, and who actually want to do all of the work. Not very likely. In fact, none of my officers actually wanted major responsibilities (which I understood and am fine with). Anything they did, was more or less a personal favor to me, as friends. Of course some of them went above and beyond and actively attempted to help organize the clan, and I thank them for their efforts. Anyways I appreciate you trying to educate me on what I should have learned, but I'm not sure we share the same perspective on the matter.

And about your no zerg policy, if that works for you then fine. However, I accept any person who wishes to join me and my friends in roleplaying a samurai and is willing to do so in sync with our rules. I'm not concerned with skill, they can be trained. I'm not concerned with how active they play, it is just a game, they have lives. The only things I'd be concerned with is their attitudes in teamspeak and their maturity. Even with such low standards, I believe the Red Lotus had an excellent roster by crpg standards.


To Muki: Signing up for a battle and attacking you on the map are two completely different things and have difference consequences. You do not start a war when you sign up for a battle, you do start a war when you attack someone on the map directly. Of course it doesn't really matter now anyways...but you as a diplomat and someone very familiar with strategus should know better. I'll assume you attempted to approach us diplomatically before attacking and I'll leave it at that.

Yes, Real Life defeated the Red Lotus. Such Irony.

And while representing a clan I should be mature, as should all people with leadership responsibilities. Diplomatically and publicly, I must be formal. With you guys in TS or Steam, I can be informal lol.

If I get a wireless adaptor tomorrow I'll be back online. Hopefully my ping isn't too crippled by this.

We will have a TS meeting soon to discuss the future of this clan, if things go accordingly.

Post by: Auphilia on May 04, 2012, 02:56:42 am
Joined the chat as "Tax_Collector" to ask about where the new "taxes" are going. If you haven't heard, if you try to sell anything in the marketplace now, you get a 5% tax. Which means, selling a loompoint for 650k, means you get 617k or so...instead of the 650k. So to get 650k, you have to sell the loompoint for over 680k (which no one will buy). The only people being taxed are the sellers, not the buyers. Until every buyer in the game understands that the sellers are being taxed, they will assume the sellers are just being ridiculously greedy with their prices and refuse to buy from them. I think it would make more sense to tax the buyers, or to tax them both at 2.5%, to minimize confusion. But anyways nothing I say makes a difference  :rolleyes:.

I then decided to ask about alternate accounts, since you can now transfer gold to them. (Not from them). I wanted to know what exactly the issue is on being able to play on alternate accounts without penalty. The time and effort you put into an alt to get a loom or a lot of gold, is identical to the time and effort you would put into a main. The only reason a person would use an alternate account is to be able to use a different play style without jeopardizing their main account. So why are we penalized for it by not being allowed to use the market? Using the market is a big part of crpg. They say because of strategus, but I wanted a little more understanding on the matter...

I would like to be able to dedicate my main to this clan, and be able to freely use my alts for when I want to do something other than cavalry heavy armored samurai tank spammer lolz. So I asked meow about it  :|


[19:07] <Tax_Collector> so how come i cant use looms on alts or whatever
[19:07] <@Meow> that has nothing to do with clan leading at all
[19:07] <Tax_Collector> and roleplay on alts :o without penalty
[19:07] <Tax_Collector> yeah it means i have to dedicate my main
[19:07] <Tax_Collector> to the clan
[19:07] <Tax_Collector> if i want to do anything else
[19:07] <@Meow> like.. everyone else you mean?
[19:07] <@Meow> no kidding
[19:07] <Tax_Collector> i get penalized for it
[19:07] <@Meow> if that is your problem. don't lead a clan
[19:07] <@Meow> obviously you are doing it wrong
[19:07] <Tax_Collector> lolz
[19:08] <@Meow> like disappearing for a month without a word
[19:08] <Tax_Collector> without a word?
[19:08] <Tax_Collector> lol dont get all personal :P
[19:08] <@Meow> that's what your members told me

LOL wut? I thought we were talking about why people use alternate accounts and why they should or should not be restricted. Not how well I can or can't lead a clan. I thought I let you guys know I had to be away for a while because of IRL stuff? Assuming meow is speaking the truth, it saddens me to know that RL members would say such a thing. I did not "disappear for a month without a word", I spoke to officers about it initially (the same day I believe), and then I spoke to you guys every chance I could in the forums. I didn't forget about the clan, and I didn't abandon it.

LOL wut? I thought we were talking about why people use alternate accounts and why they should or should not be restricted. Not how well I can or can't lead a clan. I thought I let you guys know I had to be away for a while because of IRL stuff? Assuming meow is speaking the truth, it saddens me to know that RL members would say such a thing. I did not "disappear for a month without a word", I spoke to officers about it initially (the same day I believe), and then I spoke to you guys every chance I could in the forums. I didn't forget about the clan, and I didn't abandon it.

surprise, Earthdforce does nothing but talk shit about people (100 percent sure Meow is talking about Earthdforce), and Meow is extremely judgemental, rude, and generally mean to people who don't live up to his standards of internet chivalry.

[00:55] <Ghost_> me?
[00:55] <Ghost_> im on every day
[00:55] <Ghost_> lol
[00:55] <Muki> Your members say so :P

LOL again with this. Listen, I'm on every single day, and have been since I got back. Which has been a month or so. I'm in TS practically 24/7. I only get off when I go to sleep, sometimes. This is twice "members" are talking about how inactive I am lol. I haven't seen an officer in TS in days. I'm not going to watch every server to see who is on at what time...that is what TS is for. If you don't see me its probably cuz I'm on an alt or in a different server, which had you been in TS, you would know.  :rolleyes:

TL:DR, I don't really want to be talked about behind my back by people who can't be bothered to even check TS.
Title: Re: [RL] Red Lotus

Title: Re: [RL] Red Lotus
Post by: Auphilia on May 19, 2012, 08:17:28 am
Finally saw an officer in game today, they couldn't be bothered to join TS which I've been in all day. But they could be bothered to talk about how I'm on alts all the time. Interesting.

I'm demoting myself to the rank Samurai or equivalent. Mori, Earthdforce, Redarrows, and Vaynes, (the only current officers) may now take all leadership responsibility for RL.

For further explanation, you can find me in TS almost any time of the day. No I'm not GTXting lol, it is something I've considered and thought about. It is only "sudden" to some of you because we have all, for the most part, lost touch. Anyways join TS sometime if you wish to talk about it. There is much to discuss concerning the future of RL.

Idk who is saying you are inactive and i don't understand why you demote yourself because of what "people are saying"
and even though you are in ts a lot it's always in the shogun palace. even when we sometimes have people in the dojo playing the game you say "well if you guys need me i'll be in the shogun palace" then leave to the palace and play on your alts with miyu and elsie. O.o

Alright so this is what's happening. Earth just told me that he was gonna be a casual player now (which is perfectly fine) but that means he won't be able to take a leadership role. Since Mori and Redarrows are still technically officers i'm going to wait 3 days for them to get in ts with me so we can discuss who will be leading RL. If neither come then leadership will fall to me by default.
i will be in ts late evenings around 10pm EST. those are also my usual playing hours so non-officers please join as well to fight with me :D

Order of the Knights Hospitallers
A NA/EU cRPG & Strategus faction

 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkzOu1JnP0M)
_________INTRODUCTION__________

   
The Knights Hospitallers are an easy going but determined cRPG/Strategus clan located in North America. Only based loosely on history, the clan was started primarily to provide a place for people who find the game more enjoyable when played with a team. Our origins started as a friendly joke with the Knights Templar clan and has since become a fully fledged military order in cRPG and Strategus.

The Order's members come from a broad background of team based strategic and tactical games/sports. Ranging from the Total War series, to first person shooters, and even SCA heavy combat, the Knights Hospitaller cover many areas of relevant experience. Team work, communication, and fun are of top priority and treated as invaluable in every battle. These assets among many others will form the foundation of the Knights Hospitaller and allow us to uphold a sense of chivalry that much of the world has forgotten.

Through the actions of it's members, the Knights Hospitaller intends to uphold an honorable and respectful reputation whether it be in or out of the game.

Hey guys i'm sorry i've haven't been playing for the last few days. some real life stuff came up. but i'm back!!!!! and playing!

Post by: Atticus3891 on June 05, 2012, 12:46:09 am
What happened was that this guy had about 500 gold and an army size of 0, so I thought this should be easy. I haven't heard of such a one sided samurai owning since the battle of Nagashino in 1575.

I'm sorry....(Draws tanto while kneeling down)

RL_Ashigaru_Priest_Lupus vs Templar_Vincent_Ruth - Hide Details
- Battle time: 04.06., 04:12
- Battle duration: 01m00s
- Army size: 26 vs 550
- Battle result: 0 vs 550
- Winner: Defender

Lol no need to be sorry as far as I know (not very far) we're not doing much (if anything) in strat so it's no biggie ! Was just wondering what I had missed ahahahah (apparently nothing)

....other than those brave, brave samurai !

Any how if you're planning on some raiding in strat or something maybe we should talk :D I've been kinda wanting to set up a nicely sized weeabo army for some fun battles against whoever & it would be much faster with more people coordinating ! anyway just a thought.

Also a big PS, could you guys put your in-game names on your profile so I know who's-who on the forum ! :P THANKS

(lots of exclamation marks !! !! ! ! !!)

Feel free to rock the banner and come chill in TS you can sometimes catch us there! Just poke an admin saying you need permissions to access Red Lotus.
& if you're serious about joining you can go ahead and apply for a name change and put the RL tags in your name :D

First rank is Ashigaru (you can get new ranks/titles easily just ask about them) if you feel the need to add a title to your name aswell (added badasss style points)
See you around !

Invitations sent to both of you over Steam, you're more than welcome to join up :D Our banner we usually rocking is the yellow background with red/pink diagonal stripes put that one on so you get balanced with us. You guys are both free to put the RL_ tag infront of your name, try to pop in to the TS at some point and I'll get you guys permissions so you can move about the channels.

Hope to see you guys in game at some point ! :)
