After a while, most players always go for 'min-max' (minimum effort for maximum result). it's human nature.

if you can't change the people then change the game.

The 'good & needed' changes have been discussed for years here but no one in the management team has the balls to do something about it.

so next logical step is to get ride of the current management team.

That's not easy to do without killing the game but it's dying anyway. So stay tuned.

Lurking behind the screen I have learned to value the silent financiers, admins and coders which actually kept Alleg going for years. If only one of those quiet persons ditched his job, Alleg would have died years ago. It can't been THAT bad, if Alleg ran for over a decade.

Much was written and screamed about changes. Some tried it with sabotage and cheating, some said they would take legal actions, some were insulting and blackmailing, some tried to clone it. Last but not least some honest and valuable proposals were made. But, we are still using the same system the last years.

Unless some group of honest and skillful people find a better solution, have the means to implement it and keep it running, we stick to the best we have today. I have seen a lot of people back out of it, too costly, too demanding, Real Life, getting sick of it.

This IS going to die

It depends on when

Personally I like to think in at least Rav's Geological time POV and hope for Lyk's Galatic time POV with regards to Allegiance

Otherwise all of you get busy fixing the problems rather then simply bitching and pontificating

Frankly Im $#@!ing sick of the rock throwing rather then stfu and fixing stuff. Ive come to the conclusion that no amount of money and time on my part personally can make it better. So rather then reashing old @#(! gather your talents and fix stuff

Fix the $#@!ing netcode! It went tits up with the release of R5. Why? I don't know and frankly simply want you to fix it. Fix the god damn basic game play clinkers for example. Wait what... those with talent have never heard of them... hmmm now what can the rock throwers possibly do to help out... hint hint.

I do not see myself as a rock thrower fwiw, I simply want to see a 10 plus year old video game stay relevant enough that I can pop in and play one an hour, day, week, month, or season. My money, time, effort, passion, intelligence etc etc doesn't seem to mean $#@! all difference but I still want someone to fix it. If I coud "lay hands" on this one maybe I can make it rain but this is the internetz after all and we need to gather the lynch mob rather then make it rain. Does this desire for game play not to suck a fat one make me selfish? Honestly no, but it does make those who have lapped off the tit of Allegiance without contributing a $#@!ing thing guilty.

Now wall builders if people start going wtf do I do exactly that is when you LEAD

sidebar to his Countness
Sincerely you scare me at times Count. Im not sure if your trying to save things or burn it down to the ground to recreate it in YOUR own imagine.

To Count's point though: appearances are we are slowly dying while Nero is busy fiddling

After it is purposely stuck in your eye socket to milk your retina for the money to buy (if they catch me stealing it) a Q of Mick's Malt Liquor down at the corner store.

They sell it in quarts there?

Here they only sell Mickey's in 12oz or 40oz bottles....and generally if I'm going to go in for a fotie, I'm drinking a Lando.

Here are the various joy sucking bugs I "found" since posting

The middle button aka as the scroll wheel on my mouse is fubarred. The F3 zoom feature doesnt really work at all and playing on a lappie = pain in the ass to use the num pad

When entering a turret (the faction was: Lizard) the turret crazily loops about making you totally useless as a gunner. BTW it takes herculean efforts to stabilize it in order to shoot

total game play time 12 minutes and I didnt even whine about the other three minor issues

Honestly this feels like trolling cause I can NOT be the only one experinece the game play killing @#(!

Many of the stongest personalities in Allegiance claim to be "Devs" its now time to @#(! or get off the pot. Be a dev or make me a sammich
