I gather Star is trying to create his own BIA tag and can't now. Poor thing. [_]-Greyfox

[quote who="myfist0" reply="38" id="2954179"]Did I read I while back that Rebellion will only allow 1 account per key? [/quote] From what I have ascertained, it will show stats from across all the names of the account. It will not necessarily be limited to 1 name per account. While not doing away with smurfing altogether, you would be able to tell how experienced someone is. People could still get away with hiding who they are but it would be

[quote who="Greg30007" reply="56" id="2945275"]In one game I was playing recently there was a player with 2 Vasari siege capitals who took my HW out by circling around my planet and dropping siege platforms. I had bunch of LRMs chasing them to no avail. Are vasari siege capitals overpowered? [/quote] I am not a big fan of having this used against me either. Whether it is OP or I have yet to come up with a solid way to deal with is

[quote who="Pbhead" reply="40" id="2944473"]The starfish are just as fast, only 3 tiers, and will kill buildings faster per supply point. (if they can use all thier banks) Using this strat with advent would prolly be just as deadly. [/quote] It is not often that trade and labs are built in clumps to have all banks firing. Most people ring their planets rather than put them altogether with nonmilitary structures. Military structures are different however.&nb

[quote who="Darvin3" reply="38" id="2944321"] I think one of the big problems was the new faster speed. [/quote] I doubt the speed will be changed with the argument being to just use the setting below. That being said it is unlikely you will get a game online that will use any other settings. I have on a couple of occasions some time ago tried to have everything but resource speed on faster and was quickly shot down and had them leave

I am not of the opinion that ogrovs are overpowered. I do believe however that adjudicators/starfish are underpowered though. Ogrovs serve the function they are made for well. Starfish do not. I could do without starfish being able to target 5 structures and have fewer targets with more damage. It does piddly damage to a starbase and if you are going for lightly defended econ territory it is not every time that trade ports and such are grouped together to take ma

[quote who="Derek06" reply="44" id="2943126"]im agreeing with arthanos this games needs mechanics to speed up games not make it last longer...advent and tec starbases need proper counter, as of now games take forever even if u have a considerably larger fleet than your opponent you cant go near his starbases cause he has redbutton or mass disorient + meteor [/quote] TEC has ogrovs and vasari has its own SB. Either of which will satisfactorily kill a TEC or

With 500 scouts you could actually use martyr all at the same time and kill the thing even without using its actual weapons. 250dmg x 500 is 125k raw damage(pre-mitigation). You lose the scouts obviously but the SB is still dead. [_]-Greyfox

Something needs to be done with illuminators certainly. I loathe using tier 0 spam but I find myself using it a lot. It needs small damage buff at least. If further nerfing of advent scout is to be done(which I do not currently suggest), then buffing the advent scout ability martyr needs to be done. TEC timed explosives has its uses and vasari neutral grabbing definitely does. Martyr sucks terribly as is. Tier 0 spam happens because it is the

I was in that game(although not the host) and I can understand your frustration. The community is pretty small and these kind of things hardly help matters. Playing online is often a semi-painful process to get started. Hope you are able to stick with it and can put up with the jackasses. As to why they kicked you, it could be one of many different reasons and I could only speculate. Generally if someone has waited a while then I don't kick them if I am

It is also not helpful since there are so many smurfs. What good is having a list of good players when that list is useless because less than a handful would be on that name for any length of time. The community is so small that a list is useless anyways. It isn't that impressive to be in the top 25% of maybe 50 people and a subjective top 25% at that. There has always been bias with it.

The LRF counter to LF was already softened already by making the LF more surviveable against the LRF. After this point, the LF and scout spam became prominent and there was not much u could do except spam your own LF and hope u could catch up. Buffing LF further will only exacerbate that problem. In this instance the preferable thing would be to change the fighter to make it a more viable option at least IMO. [_]-Greyfox

LFs do not need buffed(again) lest we have tier 0 spam again. As to them countering support ships, that will only happen if you can keep lrf numbers to a pure minimum(a rare thing). They don't counter subverters particularly well either unless you are going to micro a handful of them to each subverter on the field and hope they dont get killed by lrf or neutralized by the subverter before they can drain them. The only thing that does that well at all are SC or SB si

[quote who="Qu4r" reply="20" id="2912513"]Ech JJ u scared him to death with your post and showing on ICO with a tag. Or i must bark off what i told about Grey cause he is in pain after loosing his little finger either way u know BIA has no balls to fight us. They lost them 2 years ago after 30 loses in a row without a single win [/quote] He did? I rarely look on forums on the weekend. This is something I do when I ge

It's not like they would suffer terribly in any case since we are the only clan left. I hate to break this to you, but if your clan is the only clan left, it is not "active" by definition. When was the last time you guys played a clan match? Are you guys participating on a competiti

My honor was not infringed upon. Go back to trolling your own thread. [_]-Greyfox

I am bothered by all smurfs. I have jumped onto some of them repeatedly for doing so(sunny comes to mind). It isn't just DT. You are included in that Mecha although you are up DTs' ass in general so much that you might as well claim to be in their nonexistant clan. Some of my clan does smurf although not to near the degree of others. One can see easily that my own clan exists and is active. Those that do smurf do so considerably less than every

It's not a matter of widening the schism. People will believe what they want to believe. JJ and others will continue to smurf to gain unfair advantage and I will keep calling them dishonorable cowards. I am not going to move to their side and its unlikely they will move to mine so you are right in that regards. Using the argument that if its programmed then it is acceptable is an iffy thing. One could use the same argument to say many things such

[quote who="JohnJames" reply="5" id="2912075"] Playing more on your main does not equal more honorable. You can be a jerk on your main. Better to be honorable always regardless if people are look or not. [/quote] I will agree that it is better to be honorable whether or not someone knows who you are. It has been said that the real test of someone's character is what one does when no one else is looking. You can certainly be a jerk

The only part it makes invalid is him playing crappy one game and good the next. It does not change the argument made against smurfing. One can generally gather how honorable another player on here is by the proportion of time he spends on a "main". [_]-Greyfox

As to the OP, Siddy has extremely rarely played any "main" so having even 1000 on one name is extremely unlikely. He has always smurfed 99% of the time. He was usually someone that griefed people then anyways and thats why he did smurfed to begin with. Secondly most of the players that play outside of the clan,DT, he is marginally associated with know who "Siddy" is and do not want to play with him. There are good reasons for him to be kicked if he dared to show

Let's suppose they create a "smurf-free" online and then it devolves into high school where some players start getting harrassed by other players?

He did this to us tonight too. He spammed in game lobby then once game started he spammed me in whisper and friend. He must truly have no life. [_]-Greyfox

I have stacked games? That's a new one to me. If I games were stacked when I was cap then it was either picking lucky with smurfs or because the other cap picked terribly. If it was stacked when I was not cap then it wasn't exactly my doing. Apparently you capping on your smurf(since you cap when you smurf) against me when I supposedly stacked some games did not get the job done. I suck at 1v1 so you would very likely beat me. I e

I have known JJ to misbehave at times back in the day even on his previously main name. How do you know what sort of honor he has? He never plays on his main and you do not know what he does on smurfs. One of the points(bad point in my opinion) of anonymity is you can get away with whatever jackass behavior you like and no one knows its you. IMO, it is not an honorable thing to smurf because it is inherently deceptive. He has already said that he joined my o
