It is the worst disease know to Calradian man. It literally, singlehandedly killed this mod day by of day of allowing that bullshit on servers.
No, I do not fucking appreciate when you ignore me on the battlefield because you fancy me for whatever reason. I'm not online to be fancied, I'm there to have fun playing the game the way it is meant to be played. If you are bored or annoyed with cRPG for whatever reason, please leave the server. I'll do the same if I notice this shit behavior, until there is less than 4 brocoders present on server where they can't get multi. But what multi, they don't need multi? They play for fun. Yer right...
Mod can't be revived at this point. And it isn't crusade, just using my right to start topics and show my disgust at brocoding. Which is kinda stupid because forums are in state where I'm basically talking to myself...
Meh multi. That is rather easy to obtain, a bit harder to hold though. But again, you get it easy way. Not like I'm going to play competitive game modes while there are people brocoding.
Haven't you noticed that Krems are absent from DTV? That is perfect mode for them to express their love for different, more refreshing gameplay.
If it was about different gameplay and not actual hatred towards this community because "someone forced them" to invest 1000s hours into this mod and now they are entitled to ruin it for everybody else. This mod is consisted of 95% primadonas like that, I can spot my kind easily.
General rulesI made the only usable part bold but I kinda don't see where it says bro-coding is a ban'able offense.

No siege equipment spam
OK: Planting ladders to get to roofs or walls
OK: Blocking a door with a construction site
OK: Planting siege shields to provide cover from ranged fire
NOT OK: Creating a weapon rack and spawning more than a few items to block movement
If you're stuck, change team to spectators or rejoin the server, otherwise you will be considered a leecher.

I kinda know where you're coming from with this but to say "BOOHOOO I WON'T PLAY ANY MORE CUZ BROCODING!" is just silly.
It used to worse when clan mates would give the last 2 of their clan free hits end round cuz they were in the losing team and got valour that way. That is/was exploiting in my book. Seen several times from Eques, Byz and Mercs (see the pattern there?)
Just giving the other guy a hug at round end is harmless and doesn't really hurt anyone when not overdone.
I certainly won't ban anyone for a harmless hug at the end. And when it takes too long I usually do a *cough* over admin chat and they get on with it. End of story.

lets all hug leshy when we see him on the field :Di think..? :)

Lol, more people than just Leshma *genuinely* believe that brocoding and chat spamming are the reason why the mod has fewer players now?
Ahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahah
Wow
I sure hope devs tackle this massive epidemic for M:BG, imagine if people joined that game and some people were hanging out with their mates, or spamming voice commands. I know i'd quit immediately in those circumstances, i can only imagine everyone else would do the same and that the game would SORELY miss our presence.
Silly? Aren't you the one who used to play this mod every goddamn day few years ago, just like 1000's other people. Did you play it because it was full of "fun" trolls or because there was a bunch of people who cared about gameplay?I play more or less daily atm. So there is that...
You obviously seldom play it these days, even though you are part of marvelous Krems clan of fun. How come that happens, when you finally find a group of awesome people you stop regularly playing? Or maybe they are not as awesome as they think they are?

If that person seriously wants the mod to continue as long as possible, trying to ban as many of the people who still play it as possible is misguided. Why would anyone who wants the mod to continue 'appreciate' that?
Whatever i think of balance and toxicity, let's be honest the mod had both of those issues 2-3 years ago when the population was far bigger. Age of mod and boredom are most likely the biggest factors.
But ofc, if the dwindling population thinks that it's productive to try and moan and ban what's left of the player-base then QQ about empty servers later, dont let me stand in the way of progress. We disagree about just about everything in terms of this mod, but even so i know you dont believe that brocoding killed the mod. For the sake of 'standards' you may want to support this thread and Leshma on this point, but in terms of the actual OP you know as well as i do that it's a load of bollocks.
So we gonna start banning people on a low pop server at round end for giving duels to the last guy?
Often enough even losing the round although ganking him to death would save 2 minutes waiting for the dead and win the round for the team?
Just to clarify that we're not measuring with different standards...
While we are at douchebag behavior topic, last night EU1 was "full" (40 people yay). Was there, having fun. All of a sudden HA douche started delaying. I've just left, couldn't bother arguing. Bet other players left because of that HA. How many players leaving the already low pop server do you guys find acceptable before you admit that one dude trolling is the problem and that he should be removed?

Krems. Oh well, we tend to fool around quite often, yes. Some, cuz it ain't everyone, hug a lot, yes. Sometimes we roleplay silly stuff which annoys most of the server to several degrees, yes. We sometimes, it ain't all the time, spam voice chat, yes.
Besides, there are 2 servers, battle and siege, and we can't be on both at the same time, so there is always a possibility to go to the other one temporarily.
That is my personal opinion. Technically I am not an admin, just an event manager :P Therefore I am most hesitant to ban anyone anyway but I do when I see it necessary. Mostly just kick tho...
I was at EU1 yesterday as well after a long time and its the same old story for years. I could shoot down any HA's horse with ease but I am too busy 90 % of the time defending myself in close combat from 2 - 4 gankers because there is close to no melee support and the team is running off somewhere else.
The rest are all pretty decent players, including but not limited to Fin, Fuma and Xanor.
Fuma used to be one of the best players in this mod which makes it even worse that he got bored of it and became a Krem. He's a good guy and I've talked to him many times on TS, but that doesn't mean I think it's okay for him to do what he sometimes does on EU1. Xanor I've never seen chopping wood or hugging other players at spawn. Even Fin is a non-troll by today's Krems standards, same as Shanks for example. So called trolls like Fin or Shanks can be extremely fun to watch and they rarely do worse than average players in their team - most of the time these guys are not a problem at least not for me.
Then there's the genuinely bad players that followed them to feel special when they lacked the skill or imagination to actually be special.
Krems were playing crap and trolling for well over a year before Fin, Shanks or Fuma joined. But because we had so few members and the servers were so full nobody cared. Todays Krems members are probably less trolly than what we were in 2012, its just that theres a hell of a lot more of us and the servers are a lot more empty so their actions have bigger consequences on the outcome of rounds.So considering this you might for the sake of the modsurvival rethink your Clans attitude now.

I have great tryhard solution, make EU2/NA2 influence your K/D also. And then, unless your K/D is at least 10/1 you are not good enough to be allowed in Eu1/NA1 because you are deemed to be merely 'average' or worse... 'below average' and not fit to compete in battle where only the most COMMITTED players are welcome. Also you are not allowed to view, post, or contribute to polls on the game balance discussion board unless your K/D is 20/1 minimum because everyone knows only players who have a SWEET K/D on a single class are truly qualified to decide cRPG balance and policy.
(no heskey it is cos you are bad player and are just relieved they aren't trying to kill you, git good nab you secretly want to tryhard too).
I have the power of prophesy, I post it so you don't have to.
You can hug me in DTV all the time.
Thats a f**** lie you dont even talk to me
You know when you start to chuckle a bit, but you're at work so you try and hold it back, but that just makes it funnier and you start properly laughing out loud uncontrollably?
That post made me laugh way too much
And you wonder why i dwell the forums so much, fuck the forum when it's the weekend but midweek it's a tab i nearly always have open to browse when i got moment or if i forgot my earphones for lunch break. CRPG forum is best game cos you can play it at work.
