Josh-of-Clan-Mason Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 Anneal, mate nobody held you at gunpoint and made you read it. This criticism is ridiculous. This was supposed to be a notice of war not a chance for everyone to give their stupid little opinions. I could care less what you all think about the war, especially because it doesn't involve any of you. Sorry you all have to see this side of me but this is getting old real fast. Thank you, Buorhann 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, Buorhann Yeah I mean if you didn't want opinions you could've just not posted on the forums. Or not reply to those who give their opinions. Either way best of luck I guess? 6 Quote I'm just procrastinating for a paper I have to write at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starbuck Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 It's really pretty pathetic that everyone is so anti-micro. This dudes just trying to have fun and crusade some commies. That's more than some of you have done in your entire time in this game. Literally. I'm not sure how or why the culture of micro hate came to be but it's pretty toxic. Get a life guys, if hating on micros makes you feel better about being in shitty alliances, so be it. But you're making yourselves look bad. Good luck on the commie hunt. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t give a flying sheep what you think I don’t care what any of you think. The war is between the KoS and TGU. This post was originally just a notice or declaration. Kinda stupid how it turned into this. Don't hate on Thalmor, he has a storied history of anti-communism. I for one am disappointed that MORE communists are not being attacked. The great nation of Calondia takes pride in destroying communists wherever they pop up. Also +1 to Luke, I ran out of likes for today.

Bezzers Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I thought I remembered you, now I definitely do. You ran an alliance a while back, did you reroll?

Even if the current case is justified, then just shit on the dude instead of generalized shitting on all micros. It discourages new alliances and is just one aspect of how the toxicity in this community is leading to its death. The issue isn't micros, but how the overwhelming majority of them are run. An alliance isn't something anyone can do, and one of the many things you need as an alliance leader is experience. One reason why most micros fail is a lack of experience from its high gov or leader. It's far wiser to just join one of the major alliances for experience for several months, watch and learn from their alliance gov, and if you work hard, you might even become a gov member yourself. Then perhaps you can get some friends to make your own micro. It's not too different from running a startup company; it's just smarter to stay as some bigger company for a few years before making your own. As far as I know, Queen M and durmij have both served as gov members in TKR and Rose respectively, which is why SGM was able to pass the early hurdles of starting a micro. However, no one in KoS has sufficient experience in running an alliance for themselves. I should mention that the majority of them were Esquire Templar dropouts or left ET themselves because they couldn't meet passing requirements or for some other reason. Josh was banned for attempting to poach, and Blake was apparently removed by AO. As far as I can see, KoS doesn't offer up anything unique as a micro, their IA and Econ are already a mess, with several of their nations not even building correctly (even their gov, excluding the people who weren't raided) and not on the same alliance color. Would you expect this kind of micro to succeed? All of them are low tier as well, so capital is an issue. And this is just the tip of the iceberg. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starbuck Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 1 hour ago, Epi said: To be honest I've found from a lot of research in the Micro habitat that micros left alone neither succeed nor fail. They exist almost infinitely in their tier with some level of cohesion. It's only when a top 50 alliance directly involves themselves in their affairs that the micros crumble. tbh if we just left them alone we'd basically be just seeing repeats of what's happened a few years back. Who cares? People need raid targets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
