Rise Up Ye Opressed and Burdened Plebs!

So with all the drama that has been going on lately, boy am I mad. Or atleast I was, until I sat down and thought this whole situation through and realized it's really all so simple. The perfect solution was sitting right in front of us this whole time, we just didn't realize it.
So I propose that all developers, mods, and people who contribute their time and effort to the mod stop wasting so much time with all that nonsense and focus on grinding their accounts. Why? Because I'll be damned if I have to work my ass off playing tons of games in this free mod in order to grind up an account to rank 9, just to see these free loaders waltz in with rank 9 accounts they didn't earn. WTF is up with that? I mean it's like they think spending hours a day coding, having meetings, coming up with doctrines, maintaining the site, moderating the forums, working their assess off to promote the mod and come up with advertising, and all that other waste of time shit they do somehow entitles them to what the rest of us have to slave away doing. I mean don't they realize playing EiR
GAMES
is fucking hard work?
FUCK, I mean we regular players are like the plebs from the Roman empire, right? Exactly like them. We slave away and carry the whole mod on our backs without proper compensation while the lazy elites in the dev/contributor team get to relax and play around all day. And by relax and play all day, I mean do all the fucking work that keeps this mod afloat. Wait a second, maybe that is the
WORST AND LEAST FUCKING APPLICABLE
metaphor anyone has come up with in the history of the world. Oh well, maybe if I keep repeating it and shouting it with extra populist rage no one will notice my completely hypocritical and embarrassingly stupid reading of basic, simple history. WAIT, maybe that is how the Pleb comparison works! We're completely uneducated!!
So yeah, this is outrageous and I have every right to be really mad. In fact it's fucking absurd. I mean lazy ass slackers like Deadbolt getting like 20 games worth of exp FOR NOTHING just because he played
a few hundred games
to promote the mod in vCOH?!?! WTF IS THAT INJUSTICE?!?! I have a new name for EiR, it's called NAZI GERMANY. Fuck the oppression around here.
I'm tired of being the slave while EiRMod and his band of favorites just lounge around all day in the sun enjoying the fruits of our labours. It's time we rise up and show them who really does all the work around here!!!
In fact I have half a mind to quit this free mod that I do nothing to contribute to other than rage about how unfairly I'm treated and how ungrateful the mod is to me. That will teach them!!!

1. the community is way to small to give all devs, balance advisors, pr team guys, content creator and mappers free fully build companies for "private" free use to walk out and stomp the remaining noobs and people who have to grind
2. i see nothing that would be bad for the mod when everyone who does something for it has to do the same persistent way all other have to do to build their company
exactly the opposite thing is true it will favor providing a better point of view on balancing, mod behavior, and the remaining community

Was just about to say well that’s a constructive comment, but neither was mine so i guess I’ll leave that one for later. But you DO see winds point, and I fail to see yours? Other than trolling ofc.
So to make a more constructive comment, I think your absolutely right wind, people should not get any perks for working there asses off, they should just be happy they are allowed to work, like the rest of us.

Exactly! You are a genius sir!
Why should the lazy assholes who "do something" for the mod be treated any better than those like you and me who do nothing but troll the forums and go afk when tough opponents join our games? FUCKING INJUSTICE!!
They should have to do everything the rest of us useless assholes have to do. No more free ride just because they dedicate their time, money, and effort to making this mod a better place.
It's the good of the mod people like you and me are thinking of!!! BIG DICK FOR PRESIDENT!

windcriesstacki, i find it very amusing how you joined my teams after you realized that im not new and that it may lure some average/bad non rank9 company guys to play against you
furthermore i find your doge excuses like "time for lunch" etc. often when a team is not stacked in your favor very amusing
or your teamchat "guys we are playing noobs" "oh fail" after i took on two of your team alone where the other two took on you very amusing
and i find it amusing how you don't get the point
anyways im looking forward how many people will stop playing because they need to grind from day one while others are slaughtering them every game using rank9 companies

As I was going to post in the other thread before it got locked :
Quote from: gamesguy2 on June 10, 2010, 08:35:59 pm
IMO people who do work for the mod should be rewarded.
I don't agree with this. I know that I personally, when mapping, always did it to give back to the community, not because I expected something in return. Whoring the mod out on pps just doesn't sit well with me. It just seems wholly irrational to not experience the mod the same way the community does.
And anyways these rants were not aimed at the developers, but at those silly people who reap the benefits (to some extent for just being around for a long time ie : the patricians) without actually contributing to the mod.

Its no longer allowed to use test accounts, and not all were lvl 9. So the people who only played on test accounts, can no longer use them, and have to start at lvl 1. The games they played on there to grind from for example lvl 6 to lvl 8 are gone.

Surrendering of power can only be done voluntarily, even if it’s a threat towards you, you still have to CHOOSE to surrender.
It’s the same with the slaughter, when you start trying to fight to win you might actually play like you Give a "dick".
Furthermore, a lvl 9 account gives you a lot of boons, this is true, but in the end and man skilled with a rock can kill a rookie with a sword anyday.

YEAH!!
Those silly people like Nevyen, Akranadas, Computer, and Groundfire who reap the benefits just because they've been around for a while.
I mean all Nevyen has ever done is pay for our ventrillo server since the beggining of time. WHAT A FREELOADER!! I'd rather DIE than see him get a few reward units thrown his way! What does he think this is??? Freeloaders All You Can Eat Buffet In Ruins??! It's time he earned his keep for once, instead of just paying for our invaluable vent server for years without ever asking for money or reward. END THE INJUSTICE!!
And Akranadas, our PR liason who (in addition to being a mod for us here) co-ordinates all our advertising and constantly manages (sometimes too much!) the mod posts we have on GR, Moddb, and relicnews. WHEN WILL THE FREEBIES TO UNDERSERVING PATRICIANS END?!
And Computer?!?! When is he going to do some actual contributing to the mod. Those tutorial videos don't count, because I'm choosing not to remember them. Plus they probably only took 10+ hours to make. MAYBE IF HE HAD SPENT THAT TIME PLAYING GAMES LIKE US PLEBS, HE WOULDN"T BE IN THIS POSITION!! ARGHH POPULIST RAGE!@
RISE up plebs! Take back our free mod!!

That's like offering Beer to fuck the fat chick. It will work for a while, but it's not gonna last. Not only that, but there is zero motivation for the Fat chick to loose weight.

Or maybe we can all use the "donate" button and wait for our lvl 9 companies
