Oh my, this is going to be fun. o/TLR

This is seriously disappointing but I guess I can't stop you. Good luck in RL I guess. :/

edit: nvm...

Congratulations tLR.

I'm loving this cold war right now. It'll only make the inevitable clash with Polar that much sweeter. Also I respect this move by NpO.

I don't think the problem is necessarily one of game mechanics. I personally don't play to grow my nation, yes that is a part of it, but the reason I play is because I feel like part of a community in my alliance. If my enjoyment of the game was based solely off of growing my nation, then I would have quit almost as soon as I joined, which is what is happening. As was mentioned earlier, alliances are not recruiting like they used to because the new recruits don't hold the same weight they used to. Thus they are not making the new players feel welcome, or part of a group, which IMO is what makes this game worth playing. Also how can I not mention the total blasting new players get if they dare to post on the OWF without knowing "the rules". I think the whole mindset of the people in power needs to change to really save this game, which is why I think it is doomed to die a terrible agonizing death, because I don't see that happening anytime soon. However, if somehow we could get the powers that be to realize that they are in effect killing the game by not recruiting new nations, then I feel CN has a chance.

I welcome our new allies. o/Olympus o/TLR

I loved reading through this thread so much. Could you imagine what the thread announcing NPO entering CnG would be like? o/TLR o/NPO

I keep playing because I want to be around when the game finally dies. But really, I've met a lot of cool people that I normally wouldn't have, and I like talking and hanging out with them.
