Free Allegiance Forums

The game we all love is very competetive. I get that. I play to win like we all do.

What I don't like is the negative atmosphere in game and on the servers. Asking a "stupid" question or making a mistake in game is cause for taunting and ridicule, and easily for a boot as well.

Some of us are working hard to promote Allegiance. The game needs fresh blood. On the other hand a vocal minority clings to the idea of Allegiance as an exclusive private club where a skilled long time vet is given a free pass to taunt those new to the game, or just of lesser skill.

Take a moment to think about it. Is insulting people more important to you than Allegiance? That is the choise you are making. I've seen this several times. People get here, they really like the game, but the atmosphere on the forums and the pressure and trash talk in game wears them down.

If you really care about this game, you will watch what you say and how you act both in game and on the forum. A few abusive comments can drive away a lot of people in a single night, even a single game. I keep seeing this, and it is really depressing. Encourage people instead of being nasty at them. It's not that hard.

IF you spend your forum lawyering time thinking in game instead of doing the first thing that pops into your head you would be 1000000000000000000000000000% better

Alleg has problems

People have problems

I suppose the world just sucks. So what's new about that?

I'm not lawyering and I'm not trying to pick a fight.

Spending some time on cutting back egos and learning some manners instead of being in-game wouldn't hurt, either. Sadly it's a point missed by many around here lately.

I would love for you to explain to me why it would require someone to be out of game to accomplish either of those. Especially since the whole point of Allegiance is to be IN THE GAME PLAYING. That is what a video game is right?

I really am curious though so please expand upon this if you wouldn't mine
