MMOHMO needs to keep enough of an air of legitimacy that shills are attracted so that we can make fun of their ~~get rich quick schemes~~ games.

What? I don't remember that going down at all. Last I recall 90% of goons went inactive after pirate island got seized by Forrest Crowe or whatever the gently caress they called themselves, and we kept on getting our shitstomped by them in PvPenis encounters and people got bored until nothing was left but a bunch of spergy poopsockers who claimed to have hated forrest crowe for being spergy poopsockers.

You clearly weren't sailing with pirate king alleged goonfucker kimsemus then dear friend, the drama was real.

Since this game doesn't and will never exist, petition for this thread to be made a wushu/archeage shitpost thread, thx and god bless

MMO-HMO and PGS aren't quite FYADlites like imp zone or c-spam but they are also not full zones like Games main. I'm just here to help out when needed. I'm not an overbearing mod at all and you'll barely see me unless you like talking about EVE.

Well we aren't. So gently caress off.

I would love to see this happen, actually. The hilarious Fishing Pact drama was one of the funniest things ever to come out of MMO-HMO.

lets think back to Archeage launch

everyone had a wonderful time playing a terrible lovely janky pay to win game, it was wonderful

It turns out BobFromMarketing played Archeage with us. I didn't know who this dude was, neither did a lot of people. Some goons, however, knew him because he was outed as being a pedophile who groomed an icelandic teenager for sex. This was brought to the attention of the guild leaders, and a screencap of the goon guild leader was taken with him saying that 'it was a long time ago and wasnt even in America.' They wanted to keep him because he provided a lot of virtual wool for the guild (im not loving kidding). There were even attempts to sneak him back into the guild under a different name.

Naturally, a lot of goons found this really loving disgusting. In any case, the guild leader chose one of his friends to be a guild leader which didn't make anyone too happy, but he was an alright guy. Unfortunately, his dad got really sick so he just stopped coming on. He remained guild leader, so there was absolutely no real leadership. The guild had no real guild leader in his absence, just a bunch of officers. This led to some pretty awesome drama, including Kimsemus being kicked out of Goonrathi/EVE Goons

The reason Kimsemus is no longer in the EVE guild or the Star Citizen guild is because of the following:

Some of the officers wanted everyone to raise money by fishing. If you went out in the ocean you could play a lovely rhythm minigame to catch fish and turn them in for gold. The ocean was open PvP and if you were fishing you were basically really loving vulnerable. Some of the officers basically decided to ally with LITERALLY ANYONE SITTING IN THE OCEAN FISHING. Yes, you understood that right. They decided to make a well known alliance with any person in the loving ocean who had a fishing pole basically. This is despite the fact that since launch some Goons had been pirating and that was the main reason they played the game. This included Kimsemus. He was basically a PvP dude, and went around on his boat with goons and killed people.

Dabigredboat is one of the fishing pact goons and he got super mad at Kimsemus for goonfucking (by PvPing in an open PvP zone and killing pubbies). He used his influence to get Kimsemus and Lincoln kicked out of both EVE Goons and Goonrathi because he was super loving mad at video game fishing in a lovely korean MMO

● Skill-based Character Progression
As there is no predefined character class nor character level, the character progression will be skill-based. The player will be able to select one skill at a time to train for his/her character. Skills will be trained in real-time, whether the player is online or not. Each primary skill trained at the first level - which will be easy and very quick to reach - will unlock a specific gameplay tied to one of the main activities available, so that any player will be able to experience a broad range of gameplay mechanics if he wants.

This was a poo poo system when Eve (and whatever that rip off robot version of eve was) did it, its a poo poo system now that Crowfall is doing it, and it seems to be spreading like a horrible nerd version of syphilis. It's ingenious in a way, because it allows you to pay a monthly subscription while you wait for your skill to finish training, and you can choose not play the game at all, thereby using next to zero server resources. Please rent me a slowly moving bar graphic on your server, and I'll log in every once in a while and check on the amazing progress my character is making.

I want the opposite of that, because I have a career and spending 3 hours grinding astroids is loving retarded waste of my precious free time. The best part of EVE's mining progression, is that you could do it without actually mining anything.

you know how sometimes an animal will let you get near it without it flipping the gently caress out and sprinting into the other direction fast enough to knock other animals/people/things over, or start lashing out with claws and teeth and kicks. we call those social animals. Good doggies. Kitties. Some birds. the occasional raccoon

turns out routinely surprising gigantic, emotionally intelligent animals with grapples makes the animal not like you or anyone, really. Had a 250 pound sow kick my cousin in the head one time, poo poo was funny
