It's amazing how no one talks about when Syrtis actually are less or equal to the opposing force and still fight and attempt/take manned forts and such...and it reminds me of once a thief story. It cannot be helped and won't change. Syrtis has been typecast as a zerg and that will be like that forever. When Syrtis takes a fort, 9/10 times it is automatically assumed they are 25-30. And no one can be blamed but the population and the introduction of the realms to the new player and of course the disparity in the timezones. We can argue endlessly over and over on this and make hundreds of threads, but nothing will change.

Only NGD can take strides (as has been said many times before) to improve and make all 3 realms equally attractive to the new players, a start which could be of a better story in my honest opinion, stop with Syrtis being the good boy and Ignis his evil brother (I have no idea how Alsius fits in there.

) Give all 3 realms equal importance with each having their good and bad elements and so forth. At any rate they are the better judge.

@ontopic, I say what all say, all realms do it, all realms have done it, all will continue to do it. I have stopped judging the game and the people, and find whatever fun I can have, when I can have. No point in expecting anything, all play their own game.

Some of you have pointed out that we took alg when you were at herb and you have a valid point so I regret that your realm is called out in the title. I hope that the bitchfest is past in this thread and we can move to the more constructive side of things.

I hope that every realm will first try to get their fort back before resorting to lame tactics. Try a few times, spam realm chat, then do as you will if this fails.

I would be happy if we always just played ping ping between the three main forts and I think that horus would be much more fun were this the case. If lose at herb, we can expect syrtis at samal with possibly a bridge fight in between. Syrtis loses at samal and we'll head to herb.... ect...

Running around for hours capturing empty forts faster than the other realm is simply not my idea of fun and I don't think it is yours either. Personally, I would be happier losing fight after fight rather than doing this.

I'll have some cheesy with my whiney.

What I find amusing is the idea that Syrtis is coordinated enough to think that if one realm takes one fort, Syrtis immedately thinks to itself, "let's take this empty one over there" and 5 minutes later it happens.

But, if you played in syrtis, you know that the group that took the fort had been waiting somewhere around pb or Stone for someone to pull up his pants or re-set or come from some far off location for the previouls 15 minutes with the idea of going somehwere, but never leaving. And when they finally left 1/4 of them stayed because they were afk.

Generally people don't stand around pp as casually as that has proven more hazardous.

Additionally, whan I am on the night crew, more infrequently these days, I refuse to be farmed and I refuse to play the game Ignis (or even alsius for that matter) wants me to play, If you want to fight me it is on my terms, I will not be forced to play on yours.

Actually, some of the things said here regarding Syrtis is true. As a Syrtitian, I have observed many of this things. However, it is unfair to call out our realm on this since I see other realms do these things often as well.

It seems like the general player base is afraid to lose/die right now, hence they usually take the easiest way out. This manifests as the general preference to take an empty fort as opposed to one that is guarded, players grinding mostly inside the realm, players avoiding confrontation to retake their own forts and the general use of tactics in forts geared to maximize the advantages given by forts to farm players. It's human nature I guess. Everyone likes to win.

To people that say that we aren't out there to find a good fight because we use the fort to our advantage, maybe you are right. However, everyone does it as well. IMO if it's a good fight in the open field you want, then bridges are better areas to do this than forts.

And this is what Ignis means by "fighting for forts"....(was just an hour back)

And if you want names, Efrendi, Wes The Accurate, Hadit(Choronzon), I Hate Sand (Van), Aeshma, Iudicium(Smurv), Bosshogg, Grunge (Herumor), Fiasco, Abed, master xxx, Luina, Shanalay, and a whole shitload of other locks, archers and mages.

Please Ignis take your hippie bullshit someplace else.

Right and sitting there killing the low-mid level players again and again instead of allowing them to come try the fort. As said, someplace else.

Nice screenies. The reason we were there is because nobody showed up to fight for herb, as usual, so we went looking for a fight. You didn't have enough to attempt the fort, but you had about 10 just sitting around at the save? If they would've stopped dancing and fought we probably would've died there, and you'd get your fort back... instead I just got bored and logged.
