[quote=duck55223] Nah it doesn't hurt.But maybe Wilson needs to get over the past. [/quote] Dude Shut up I'm not talking about the past, if you actually READ it, you'd see me asking to make it realistic. Your version of battles are "ALRIGHT, EVERYONE CALL IN ALL OUR THREE-THOUSAND ALLIES AND RUSH THEM," while the solitary, single fleet that is being attacked is suddenly instantly surrounded by a thousand enemy ships. Your version of roleplaying is, at least for this type, taking the same thing you had years ago, literally years ago, and just reposted it with a little change. And what is it me complaining about changes when there have been changes? What has been changed? You made your people now capable of using hands, congrats, now you can do even more crap in addition to magic. You say powerful magic isn't all that common, but why is it that when anyone does anything, you have like a legion of superusers ready? Someone brings up valid points and other people agree, and instead of being a reasonable, fair person, duck, you just ignore, call it whining and complaining, and go on doing absolutely nothing different from when you first started this roleplay. If I recall correctly, when you first started this roleplay, the peace-loving peacekeepers of Equestria who were so closely guarded and protected by an all-powerful goddess had the largest military fleets, rivaled only by the Draconians. Let's go to the present: Whose fleets are large enough to take you on? Who has enough fleets to wipe out all yours? Another thing I had 'complained' about was FTL. If a gun can shoot through walls in a game and it's killing EVERYBODY, then the makers of the game will obviously nerf it. FTL here is the same way. You guys have it where you can move yourself from any point to any point, except maybe in materials. I'm honestly surprised none of you have yet tried to use FTL to simply go from the surface of one planet to another. You use FTL to go from anywhere to anywhere, at any point in time with no apparent charge up. It's just like pressing a "GO HERE" button. *push* *push* *push* No problem, nothing. A fleet can go thousands of lightyears in a moment. How is this fun? Stuff needs to take time. If someone just has FTL, you could literally just gather up a big ol' assault, FTL straight up to the capital world of planet, nuke it all to hell before they could possibly respond, and then FTL out just as reinforcements had realized what was happening and came rushing in to help. Another thing, again, is auto-hitting and the like. Where's the fun when all you do is "My fleet appeared and blew up half of the enemies before they could do anything." Now, in another roleplay, the GM rolls everything. People have in a list: 1. Deployed 10,000 soldiers to German-Polish border 2. Launched bomber raid on Poland 3. Construction of new airfields to facilitate more airplanes 4. Construction of manufacturing plants for tanks and ammunitions And the GM goes through and rolls or something for each one, letting everyone post once in the 'turn', and then going through and rolling 1. Deployed 10,000 soldiers to German-Polish border [Successful; soldiers deployed and entrenched; moral of people drop due to food shipments to the soldiers instead of to stores] 2. Launched bomber raid on Poland [Failed; AA too thick and resulted in losses of 60% of bombers; military moral drops] 3. Construction of new airfields to facilitate more airplanes [Failed; less capacity for airplanes] 4. Construction of manufacturing plants for tanks and ammunitions [Successful; more ammunition and tanks produced monthly; less money for research] Of course, all we have is "We did this!" "We did this again!" "We made more stuff!" "We're making better stuff than everyone else!" And nothing says you can't, not really. KeyGuy uses more or less the same idea, except he does something different every time with it, and he always has a sort of [i]struggle.[/i] He has to get his peoples up on their feet again and start running. And, of course, he doesn't make everyone so bloody perfect. There are rebellions and internal wars and stuff. The closest I've ever seen to this is a Griffen setting off an explosive in an AIF city, and that's about it. The Supremes go about, asking different planets if they'll let them preserve their race, and, of course, all of them being absolutely perfect, all said the exact same thing: [i]"No, we're all completely and totally loyal to our Princesses and to Faust even though we've never even heard their voices or anything."[/i] But I'm not asking [i]you[/i] to change anything, Duck, because I know you're too full of yourself to do so. No, I'm asking KeyGuy, because he shows more sense than everyone here. If he thinks your unoriginality and lack of creativity is great and more beneficial to the roleplay than me and Cale Tucker over here, then me and him will just Skedaddle. K?
