@Emperor Jonas has really opened my eyes AntMan hereby publicly voices his opinion on how ghastly and unsightly wars are. The things I am about to list below are what makes me sick about wars: 1) Wars need a lot of money to be fought-We literally need to spend millions of dollas and thousands of resources to double-buy, ghost-fleet and ghost-buy and what not. To win a single war we throw away soooooo much. Ofc we may be hitting Polaris Bank but hey, my million are nothing compared to the billions i am about to loot right? 2) Need to use bran- Winnin' wars needs us to outsmart our opponent as well. It forces us to read guides, think for ourselves and apply bran power. I literally burn all my chromies trying to win any war. And we all know all the people who play PnW hate two things-pixel-huggers and using their bran. 3) Bad stats- I DONT WANT TO LOSE military or infra even if that puts me in the leaderboards. It is absolutely something I dont want to. 4) Looting money- Karma is a !@#$. If I loot them today, they will loot me tomorrow. 5) Destroying counters- Counters arent at fault. It is their alliance who forces them to hit you. Absolutely we shouldnt destroy dem counters. 6) Other things- .....I ran out of things to post, sry Hence, in view of the above facts, I, being a pixel-hugger myself, have come up with a few ways to avoid all wars. 1) Be in gov- Being there gives you a clear idea when a war is about to break out. 2) Have full military- They wont hit you if you have full military(needs fact check) 3) Nation Description- Have a huge nation description where you beg others not to declare war on you. Literally beg. 4) Pin that VM button- Those who dont VM during wars are !@#$. 5) Delete Nation- Still got declared on? Dont worry. just delete. They will never declare war on you ever again. I hope everyone finds this useful and the war feature is removed for good.

We should also get rid of Politics, politics are bad. Lets call the game "and".

@Emperor Jonas is right. We should remove wars from the game. But while we're at it, we can get rid of all the other cluster related to wars. For instance, we can get rid of all the military units since they'll essentially be useless and just cost us more in resources to keep. But why stop there? Since the military units are gone, we can also get rid of all the military improvements since they wont be able to make anything. Then we move onto the projects we can remove. V.D.S., Missile Launch Pad, Propaganda Bureau, Nuclear Research Facility, Iron Dome, Intelligence Agency, and Munitions Stockpile are all now useless without any wars. And speaking of Munitions Stockpile, we can just get rid of munitions all together. So now you might be thinking "what else is there to remove?" Well now that wars aren't around anymore, we dont really need alliances either so we can just remove all the alliances and all the treaties they've had. But now that we've gotten rid of all the politics and war in the game, that means the name doesn't make any sense. So what we do now is rename it after what little we have left in the game. Now Introducing: Baseball & Keno: The hottest new nation simulator. Forgot this. /s

The reaction to @Emperor Jonas spilling his chromosomes all over the place about the war system is pretty overwhelmingly against him. As such, let's mention the things we like about the war system. Consider this thread a celebration of war, if you will. I like the feeling of harming another person's things. Using 2,250 planes against a guy with 2K infra per city and destroying, like, 600-700 infra a pop just feels great. I also like it when myself or others I know get angry/sad PMs from people who get raided or who are massive pixel huggers. Those are always funny. Maybe I'm a sociopath idk. Outside of the mechanics and into the meta, the degree to which the forums come alive during a major war and the memes they spawn is also wonderful. Wartime is really when the game shines.

Damn nerds trying to get us to read.

Hello guys i am angry about something. You see Emperor Jonas has been bad. Please developer respect my ideas and disable him. Listen to the masses.

You again? Now you're really too dumb to quit.

Speaking as someone who managed to read a solid 30% of what you two just wrote, I'd just like to point out that using historical comparisons to try and establish Sketchy as a hypocrite wouldn't retroactively make BK's FA moves less cowardly. Edit: At first I was a little curious why BK went with TCW. But now I think I understand better. They're going to fill the void left by IQ and have Yui feed BK soothing narratives and applesauce. "It's okay. Everyone else is consolidating. It's okay. You're a strong alliance and I'm very proud of you. It's all okay."

Theres no way this isn't a masterful troll at this point in time.

Not again...

I believe the developers should get rid of the limit on reactions in the forums, because it's really a dumb thing, because I just wanna share my love to people and share my hate towards people @Emperor Jonas, please devs don't be capitalist pigs. Get rid of reaction limits. Thanks comrades.

I could be missing something, but when did Test do this? Eh. You did nothing last major war. He's right about that much. Was no one asking you to not wait? I think the important thing is who you listened to. (I'm glad this thread is becoming a mess. I was worried from some of the other threads we'd settle into a kumbaya thank YOU for being dynamic no thank YOU for being dynamic snoozefest.)

If I've learned anything over the past two days, it's that the "masses" want anything but war.

We get it prices are low, I eagerly await tomorrows thread regarding the subject.

You are either the greatest troll or the greatest idiot we ever saw, take your choice.

1. Stop posting this shit, stupid pixelhuggers don’t deserve a place here 2. Wars keep all of us happy because it gives us some way to torment pixelhuggers like you 3. If those downvotes hurt so much then stop posting, just my 2 cents

Nobody: Thanos: N A R R A T I V E

It's a rare sight to see Orbis so united about something. It's about rejecting a ridiculous idea but still.. united. Beautiful moment.

War has its uses, and does add a great deal of spice into the game. While I'm not a fan of continuous perma-war like Knightfall, a good fight that takes a month or two is something I'm good with.

Counter-proposal: Have no cap on OP's defensive slots, remove any score limitations from him, and have his wars never expire.

Don't worry TCW, we can still protect you for a week while you continue searching for good allies

Community Outreach Program, Vol. 1 Citizens of Orbis! It is I, Charlie Traveler. We're here with an important announcement regarding our recently launched community outreach program. We have identified a problem with the esteemed members of what was once Nuke Bloc - they are sorely lacking excitement! In an effort to rectify this issue, Soup Kitchen, being the community-focused organization it is, has initiated a series of friendly attacks against members of Fark and World Task Force. The decision to help these two wonderful alliances came from a place of love - we expect this to be a quick, action-packed, fun war for everyone involved! In an effort to ensure that this remains a fair 1v2 fight, the rest of the Chaos Bloc members will be watching the ring to prevent outside combatants (like ghosts). I am sure that this will be a wonderful team-building, engaging experience for all three of our communities! Signed,

Solar Knights - BK MDoAP Now, this is a story all about how our lives got flipped-turned upside down and I'd like to take a minute just sit right there I'll tell you how we came to the decision of the MDoAP. In the west solar system born and raised in the milky way was where we spent most of our days, Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin', all cool and all shootin some b-ball outside of the school. When a couple of guys who were up to no good started making trouble in my neighborhood We got in one little fight and SnK got fit, BK said 'We're movin' you up and signin a MDoAP.”' Article I – Sovereignty The parties shall respect the sovereignty of each other, and neither party shall engage in any conduct which may impinge on the sovereignty of the other. Article II – Non-aggression The parties shall not engage in aggressive actions against each other, including conducting espionage or declaring war on each other, or providing aid to enemies of either party.

If a war is what you want you're welcome to start one. The game even has a super secret button for declaring wars built into it (just don't let Alex know I told you)

Thank you for establishing IQ out of your love for the competitive spirit, BK. Thanks for the last two wonderful years. ❤️ I mean you're right that no one forced anyone to do anything, but ease up pretending you wanted competition. You ran from it for literal years.

You guys claimed Tiers was a preempt. Do you forget the entire log controversy? (I still haven't seen it btw pop it in my dms fam). So that would be 2 preempts and a dogpile. Therefore my point still stands, based on your own logic. The rest of your paragraph continues on this false premise so I'm going to skip most of it. TGH didn't enter on your "preempt" in AC, we were part of the initial plan and were always intended to be on Vanguard. False. Had we not committed, the war likely wouldn't have happened at all, depending on whether it got to the point of being leaked and the preempt went ahead anyway. The rest of your paragraph seems to be some weird attempt to compare a sphere that has for its entire existence been by design more than 1/4 of your size and has still managed to achieve more offensive wars than you have. I wasn't criticising your tiering. The meatshield comment was in reference to your decision to bring in a bunch of upper tier alliances into the war against TKR to eat all the damage while you sat planes only in the bottom minimizing the risk. Which you did. So.... You literally just argued against yourself, good job. I was not even playing the game during 168, and I wasn't in government until after Silent War finished. You really got me bro. I WAS the leader of Rose when we kicked your ass tho lmfao. Funny you didn't mention that in your little 1000 word essay. Must have slipped your mind. Yes, I can see that you are intentionally ignoring one half of that table and focusing on the part that advances your narrative. The upper tier consolidation jab was me making fun of the fact that literally 2 weeks ago Leo was claiming chaos was an upper tier consolidation, and now hes signing the alliance he was concerned about (TCW). I will try to be more direct in the future to ensure you can understand and don't get all confused. Wow bro calm down there @Seeker might not appreciate you calling him out like that. VE tried their hardest. But fair enough. Polaris and UPN are pretty scary. Yer, because you had the most treaties of anyone, no fricking shit. You do realize that still leaves you with 9 treaties right? Brilliant framing tho, you should post on Leos behalf from now on he needs all the help he can get. You aren't broken up yet. Both sides are tied into vanguard. I've been told the transition period isn't complete, hence why I'm not !@#$ing about that in every single thread despite it being glaringly obvious when I could be and I'm just focusing on the treaties that exist outside of it. Point to my criticism of NPO or GOG anywhere on the forum. I haven't criticised GOG because I have no idea what they are doing as of yet, and have waited to see. I haven't criticised NPO because I know they were the actual drivers of the split. I did criticise t$ because Kayser as you would agree with me has a somewhat murky history on this point, but he claimed more was to come and for the most part I have waited to see. I never claimed it wasn't a good thing or that it shouldn't be commended. But replacing one IQ with a sphere only slightly smaller while other groups are making an active effort to trim down their numbers in more significant ways doesn't make you a hero. It makes this a transparent power move. This is further solidified by the fairly obvious attempts to redirect onto chaos. I've been a fairly outspoken critic of TKR for awhile now, and if they try to pull similar moves, I'll be saying the same shit to them. You seem to think my criticism of BK is tied to personal issues but its not. You make moves, I respond to them. Its within your power to change my or anyone elses perception of you. This is just pure spin. My criticism was of Leos attempts to redirect onto Chaos. I don't have an issue with burying the hatchet, I have an issue with overt power grabs and attempts to obfuscate data in order to justify it. As for the whole paragraph about the stats, I already asked if you guys wanted me to post a graph or not, I assume no. That is an entire separate conversation to get into. I could be pushing that line a lot harder than I am. Frankly I'd say I've been waaayyy more generous with all of you during this period than I could have been, precisely because of the nature of the events. TLDR: Curu is a fan of writing long paragraphs sneakily built on false premises, and forming strawman arguments in order to avoid having to deal with the real ones. Truly a master of word salad and bullshit sandwiches. Thanks for playing.

Haha reacts only

We should all ? IQ. React with downvotes if you agree

Come on man. I just got off work and I come up to another dumb post from you. Grow the hell up and grow a pair. Go play NS you Capitalist pig. I would up vote you too comrade, but I ran out of up votes for the day.

...I regret that I have run out of likes to give. Also, I'm starting to believe that this is a bizarre operation done to dethrone @MinesomeMC for most disliked poster. Look at this man, and how he smashed Minesome's dislike record in just a under a day.

*woosh*

I, for one, hope these posts keep on coming. We have a real sense of a community coming together to take on a mutual enemy going on.

Hippies aren't welcome.

Please, keep doing it. I burst laughing every time you appear.

I think its not the game going to the wrong direction. It's you are playing the wrong game. Go search Happy Farm, FarmVille, Restaurant City. Those type of game has no wars, only keeps making money, then grows bigger, making money again, buy and build ..... so on. You can also sell your stuff out and make more money! Visit your friend's farm and steal their apples! HAHA! So much fun. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Boy, we're starting early on Worst Forum Poster award and Worst Suggested Idea.

Please respect my Idea Listen to the masses.

I haven't posted any graphs yet but if you like I can. Of course we both know you'll just come up with some excuse why objective numbers don't count lmfao.

He’s bad for the game. Posting here to find people who agree.

I promise you, you are not apart of the masses.

War is literally the only fun and interesting part of this game. Building your cities and infra is only done so you can fight wars better. Growing your pixels is fun for 3-4 months but if you do it for a long time the game gets boring quick because it is a slow game and there isn't much to do in the first place outside of war. There is nothing wrong with killing millions of people. If it were up to me I would kill billions of people. I receive orgasmic pleasure from watching bodies fall into mass graves. There are 11,270,709,687 people on Orbis and I want each one to perish horrifically. Then I would off myself. God bless.

The masses are telling you they want war lol

I wasn't going to downvote until you told me to upvote.

I am not sure if it's right place if it's not please move it somewhere else. Prepare for bad grammar and complains. My main issue about this game is that too much relaying on community. Every interesting things which are happening currently in game it's up to players. This game is so dull rn that only community keeps it alive. It is sad that game doesn't make any significant progress. There is nothing to do in game rn. No interesting addition to nations or alliances like researches to get bonuses, something like that. Maybe new military unit to make next war more interesting? Idk Why not make something which force alliances to fight more often over some bonuses or sth. People don't fight too often because they don't have reason to burn pixels. How many times we can fight just for lolz or grudges? And maybe some small change from time to time in war mechanic to make every war more interesting? I don't expect huge changes but this game should be interesting itself. Right now, only community keeps me in this game. I really force myself to log in game. I spend more time at discord... Tell me what you think. I am old player not the oldest but totally bored with lack of new interesting content. And yeah I am free to play player so I am not feeling comfortable to criticise it but well...I don't see reason to support this game when I see such stagnation. I only support games which have constant progress. I am tired of trying entertain myself. I did many stupid things but I am feeling burnt out. Ehhh... I expect interesting new things in game. I saw pretty nice ideas in suggestions at forum from members and seems to be mostly ignored.
