: If Genofen is supported by the imms, then its just sad, sad that the cabal Of course Genofen is going to be supported by the imms. The imms Now remember that if Genofen had picked a fight with the Tower when Now there comes the part that we tend to harp on when we talk about : No wait, This really bothers me, but this is kind of funny : You get people that do, many of which love it, they play alot of ragers and give it Yeap, that sums up the majority of the CF population.
politics leads to a 1 sided cabal war. If you have ever been in a 8 on 8 cabal
fight, then you would understand how pathetic genofen's roleplay is for the fun
aspect.
allow players the freedom (to a degree) to determine in what
direction the game goes. With this in mind, Genofen has some freedom
to take the Empire in any direction he sees fit. If he wished to
remain allied with the Tower then he would have done so. Now while
this may not be fun for someone playing a Master, it may be fun for
Genofen, and the other imperials. How many of us are playing from the
pure joy of bringing fun to others? If you were in Genofen's shoes
what would have you done?
they still had some relative strength, how fun would that have been
for him (it might of been, I don't know)? Look at the odds, he would
have to deal with. He would have had to fight the Masters, Warders,
Barons, Ragers, and Scarabs? You aren't exactly putting your Empire
into a position for victory in that case. I ask again, what would you
have done?
you Arolin. Does it occur to you this is the path the character Genofen
would take in regard to the role he plays? The Tower did have a chance
to get out of it. Serafim could have tucked tail and ran. I imagine he
didn't. What would be the logical response of an Emperor who felt his
imperial decree was being ignored by an ally?
thats right, people dont log on unless their cabal outnumbers everyone. That
goes to the heart of a problem cf has always had, i dont know why some people
dont want to take risks.
coming from you. I remember a few times when you
and the other smuggers would login at the same time,
and turn the current tide wherever it might be
flowing. This isn't to say you didn't take any risks.
It's just not as evident to me. I was never able to
snoop you. ;)
all they got.
People that like to play power chars and then take risks
Then people that play either power chars or safe chars, hoarde eq, take no risks
and basically are a complete girl.
The last one really bothers me as well, but just because
they decide not to take any risks in a fight doesn't
mean they aren't doing so in other aspects as in a
different role they are trying to pass off. I get madder
at the great equipment storage characters. By the way,
who has the damn cube of force! 8P
