A place where people go to die? Sure, Majoria is a committed fan but she doesn't deserve the shittalk being thrown her way here. Yeah PvP, hormones, etc., but that doesn't mean people can't sit in their homes and roleplay. Hell Templar, you hopped on UOForever. You know. Remember our plan? It involves a dinner-party at a wealthy maiden's castle. There will be roleplaying, drinks, dinner, and *describes this* everywhere. Where do you get off hating on roleplayers when you're plotting to commit roleplay of your own? Ok fine, so we're going to end up robbing the wench blind and killing her, but that doesn't mean that what she's doing is bad. The truth is that it's those kinds of players that made UO so special back in the day. You can find PvPers and the like in any MMO (if the MMO permits good PvP), but only in early UO could you find both the hardcore and the shady types of players playing with proud RP heroes and sweet maidens with well-decorated houses. We ought to appreciate the diversity that is so rarely seen in MMO's today. I cannot disagree more. It's those role-players that complained when they lost, dropped wars/highlights whenever there was an actual fight, "I ban thee"d when you brought orcs to a tavern raid and weren't outnumbered 10-to-1 by a hundred random elven archers all sitting in the corner, sipping their wine "mysteriously." In short, they're the ones that demanded Trammel. It's hard to keep up your role-play of a grand adventurer and town protector when you and your friends get sodomized by a lone drifter. Did they rally and say, "We need to train more?" Was there RP that showed fear for this strange wanderer? No, it's "I ban thee" and that's the end of it. "Boo hoo, I lost, the mean 'native' beat me up. He isn't a real role-player because he doesn't meet my standards for RP." Whatever that means. I saw it all the time, from both sides of the fence, being that I went through an elitist phase a decade ago. It was a harsh reality to see myself in that same role. I had to learn the hard way that RP is different to everyone, but we're all the better for allowing all types of RP. The problem is playstyles, and the vast majority of self-identifying RPers (at least the organized ones) fall in line with Majoria and company. "You PK'd me? You're a griefer!" It's been a constant since '98, on every shard and server, and every game that even remotely allowed PKing. Role-players like Majoria didn't make UO special. They were banksitters and whiners. At best they served as gris and (somewhat) smarter NPCs. The real role-players were those that logged in and played their role at all costs. Orcs that battlecried before rushing headlong into certain death, knowing some dicks would blind loot them, simply for the enjoyment of all. Majoria and her ilk were the ones that bombarded the warboss on ICQ when they lost, bitching that they should have warned the tavern staff. Sandboxes are better off without them.

Your trolling is weak, man. I'm talking on these forums now mainly because of the people I've met through SotA forums and the fact that UO and certain MMO topics are being discussed.
It is funny that you're posting, though, given your track record on here. The angst is obvious. Either way, you gotta' work on your troll game, buddy. I can respect a good troll, but with you, it's like amateur hour.

Yet you feel the need to explain yourself. As I said, forum creep with no social life outside the forums you babble on. You must be an old fart like ol Christopher over here. I was being serious when I said get some pussy.

I was being serious when I said get some pussy. Says the guy on these very forums contributing nothing to a conversation, not even humor, and failing to get a rise out of anyone. I am interested what you're thinking about, though. Because you have to be at your computer, legitimately thinking you're fighting some noble fight or have this complex that you're affecting anyone on these forums. I guess I'm curious what it feels like to be so utterly worthless at every endeavor that this becomes a past time for you.

You need a balanced ecosystem consisting of all types of players tho in order to have a healthy community. but here, see the difference: that maiden you talked about… she plays thEre on a non-Trammel server. She didnt go to trammy land. She deserves my respect for that!

The thing I don't understand is that people like 4theLOLZ did such a bang up job of keeping Insane, Joviex, and the of us in trouble with the mods. They used the report feature as a weapon so that ultimately we were permabanned. You would think they must be happy that they're back to living in the land of unicorns and rainbows once again. A place where everyone thinks SotA is the best thing since sliced bread. No more troublemakers. But no! They keep coming here to see what we're up to. Maybe they can't stand that someone might be talking about them. Who knows. It seems really strange though. Strange, creepy, borderline mental. IMO, it's probably mental. You can't have all your marbles in the same pouch and still support that embarrassment of a game.

I do take some blame for the content in which I posted Some if it was meant to be in your face, something had to break the carebear waves. Though, yes I was reported constantly also for even normal posts. The post that got me banned 2nd time round was a question about how port was going to stop the Dev+ leaks coming from members, mostly MGT470 people. Gone.

The post that got me banned 2nd time round was a question about how port was going to stop the Dev+ leaks coming from members, mostly MGT470 people. Gone. Well sure, we all have to take responsibility for what we said, and I'll be the first to admit that I'm really blunt when it some to making a point. It happens in discourses where people have differing opinions and normally everyone deals with it like adults. I'm far from a psychologist, but my guess is that there is a large group of old Ultima fans that never grew up (at least emotionally) and somehow they landed 'en masse' in SotA. Their myopic view of the game, evidenced by the extreme adulation around every little thing Portalarium does is what keeps them securely sealed in their bubble. They spend a hell of a lot of time and energy rationalizing their own behaviors, beliefs, and decision-making processes. How else could a person who "lives the virtues" when Richard is watching come over here and act in extreme opposition to those virtues? That's what little children and teenagers do when hey're trying to put one over on their parents. I really believe that if the SotA crowd were a little more honest with themselves and pulled their heads out of Portalarium's ass once in a while, Shroud of the Avatar would be a far better game than it is today. However, that's not the case. If Starr says it, the community says it. If Chris believes it, the community believes it. If Fire Lotus regurgitates it, the community regurgitates it. It's the most clear example of mob mentality I've ever seen.

Oh yeah, that one (Katrina) represents most of what is wrong with the SotA community. A class "A" douche. Actually. I just realized something about Katrina. I think it was in my mind before, but didn't click until I saw the obvious signs just now. Stay tuned, minor hatchet job will be on its way.

ROTFL. GG At first I thought maybe they are outsourcing dev work to people in "Roma" Italy, but then I quickly realized one of their devs probably lives part-time in both Texas and Italy. After all, with all the money Portalarium is stealing from their backers, they certainly can afford it. BTW, here's a bit of info: In Ultima, Katrina (NPC) is a shepherd, and the only survivor of the daemon attack that destroyed the island port city of Magincia. She still lives in the ruins of the destroyed city. Later, Magincia is resettled as New Magincia, a simple agricultural community that, unlike its predecessor, embraces the virtue of Humility. Katrina becomes one of its first citizens. She later ends up as the only citizen after it is abandoned, and the Avatar helps restore Humility to the area. She is based on a friend of Richard Garriott's that goes by the nickname Trina.

Don't you know what a troll does? Shit... You guys took the time to buy a domain name, dedicate a server, setup Wordpress, customize Wordpress, setup a forum through proboards, obtain multiple sota forum alts by creating multiple email address with false information, create artwork for the site, backup SotA forum threads, take screenshots along with highlighting SotA forum post in photo editing software & of course, this site contains nothing but ebil troll postings you took even more time to write. The greatness behind this, you really care about SotA and you know it's going to go big... Otherwise, this site would not exist and you would have gone on with your miserable lives. Most people would accept their losses & move on if they got banned, if they lost $10k for being a dumbass, or simply dislike the direction of the game. Not once have I seen any beneficial content on this site. False implications, blatant lies, slandering, & libel is all IM consist of. Why not spend this time & effort on something like getting laid, or that thing most of you know nothing about... Having a life. Fuck, find something that you will enjoy, but I see that this is what you enjoy. Creeping forums, beating your meat to girls you will never touch, always wandering about the what ifs & what could haves.. Living behind a computer screen as an old fart with no direction in your life. Good stuff.

The greatness behind this, you really care about SotA and you know it's going to go big... Otherwise, this site would not exist and you would have gone on with your miserable lives. Going to go big? You're joking right? SotA was always designed to be fringe. If you think for a second this thing is going to "go big", you need your head examined. Have you read the reviews on Steam? Have you noticed that when news items about SotA are posted on a gaming sites, most get no responses? That's because no one cares. Well, except for the 15 of you living in your little Garriott bubble. Fuck, get a grip.Most people would accept their losses & move on if they got banned, if they lost $10k for being a dumbass, or simply dislike the direction of the game. We did move on. We came here to discuss SotA with other people who are banned and/or have given up on the game.
Why do YOU feel the need to come here? What are you getting out of it? Why do you even feel the need to post? Why don't you quietly go back to your "community" instead of coming here to peddle your brand of bullshit? Why can't you accept that others don't like the game and go hang with people that do? Talk about not letting go...
Here are the last five reviews on Steam. Sorry, my review isn't there because Portalarium cried to Steam until they removed it, along with a whole bunch of other negative reviews. Apparently Steam got wise to that and told Portalarium to shove off and take their lumps.Face it, you're just another butt-hurt SotA groupie. /facepalm
