  1. This is the wrong place for this. Please post it under the relevant section (I&A / EU3) in the suggestions thread.
  2. To add items from a CDLC would limit the number of players who will have access to the server. That is not in keeping with what I&A is about imho, as we want the server to be as accessible as possible. Doing a change like this would keep many long-time players from playing. I think the relative failure of the Prairie Fire I&A server is a good example of this.

    Hi Harei. Upon review and given that it's been over two years since the ban, we believe that you have done the time. Please review our rules / code of conduct and welcome back to AhoyWorld! Ban Appeal Successful!
  4. I feel that nothing dredged up here adds value or anything new. What I have learnt from this (and we are all aware of my role) is that this is, in the end, a game. It should not affect you so much. Let people play where they want and and instead ask "what can we do to make this community thrive?". Time to go outside, touch some grass, and stop dwelling on this.
  5. Most Friendly AW Member @Gambit becuase I said I would. Be glad I haven’t actively campaigned for this this year hahaha. Will add more when I can.
  6. I am failing to understand what the actual issue is. I do not feel this has ever been unclear for 99% of the players and the "awaiting-request" behavior you mentioned is also not really a thing as pilots will fly to and from AO's without actively being requested to do so. Should the player base require RTB or trasnport to the objective of their choice this is also pretty much handled and understood. Exfil is also not always expected from the general player base due to the use of their own vehicles. If pilots are bored and taking passengers to and from the AO is not possible, the option to offer logistical support is there. This is better facilitated by clever scripting allowing the drop-off of resupply crates. Further to this, if a pilot is really bored and not being called in for anything, including CAS, he has the option to switch slots and go as ground infantry. It is important to remember that EU1 is a casual server. I feel that amendments to your perceived "grey areas" are not in keeping with the expectations of the majority of the player base.

    Many thanks for informing us and my condolences. We will miss his good humor.
  8. My only real issue with this new players suddenly having to switch sides with who they PID. Unintentional tk is already a problem and now to rotate who you are shooting at is only going to make this 10x worse. I don’t feel this would work considering the majority of players on server are reasonably new. This also means an overhaul of FOBs, the assets they spawn and also probably cosmetic features as well. I honestly don’t think our smart dev people have the capacity for this change but obviously that’s not for me to say 100%.
  9. As I suggested in chat tonight, a CAS-off could be fun. Every pilot gets a certain number of disabled armored targets to hit in a specific time limit / with limited ammo. Person who clears them all in the fastest time is the Best AW Pilot (TM).

  15. I was just simply stating my thoughts. This comes from hours and hours running around with a Cyrus, a heavy weapon with terrible sway. I cut my teeth on EU1 and like I said in the meeting I learnt with the sway and am used to it and compensate accordingly. River your comments are quite combative and rude. People are welcome to their opinions on this but ultimately whatever choice Core Staff makes is fine as I trust they have community interests at heart. I think this is a case of “my opinion is the right opinion”. At the end of the day it is a game on a server run by volunteers. Remember that when issues like this are raised. I have been guilty of this myself and it does help to just take a step back and regain perspective.
  16. I stand by my original perspective that changing this means spoonfeeding players, making the game easier to play. The knock-on effect is players will get bored more easily which could lead to higher player turnover and / or more trolling. Conversely, if you do reduce sway, them the AI difficulty should be tweaked to balance this. Just my opinion on this. Pls no hate.
  17. I would have been ok with any outcome. I was just doing my job. I also do not feel that my report was placed with gut feelings as I had sat on it for close to two months and presented what I felt was a succinct picture of the situation. Whether or not Core Staff agreed is not the reason I subsequently decided to step down from my duties. This was before any outcome had been concluded and well before Norris left the community. I felt like I was treated like I didn’t know what I was talking about. I felt invalidated and that my understanding of the rules was wrong. I was cut off and not given time to speak when pulled into a meeting. I am a proud person and do not appreciate being treated like I am a child people don’t have patience for. At least, that was my experience at the time. The way I see this is no single person as at fault as it has been a series of badly handled events and people waiting around for other people to talk about the elephant in the room. This falls on the people the report was made about too. The divisions were seen well before all this blew up. I was in the middle of this storm. There are many things people have said here that I feel are simply not accurate nor respectful of those who opted to leave. making statements about things after the fact does nothing to better what has happened. It’s done. And I am sorry to comment again but this be the last I say on this matter and urge everyone to just move on. Bickering and pointing fingers is not going to bring people back here.
  18. Right. As I have nothing to lose, I am going to set something straight right here. I filed that that report. I do not mind who knows this anymore. Tiptoeing around these things has not done anyone any favors. I have done my level best to keep this from the community and to wear a happy smile and continue on, business as usual. I did not not expect the whole situation to blow up as it did. But it has and this is due not the situation itself, but to lack of communication, allowing the gossip mills to turn. Did people approach me after they saw my resignation form Pub Mod? Yes they did. Did I answer them with my reasons why? Yes. Because Norris was gone. Because I believed things were not ok. I feel that my report, based upon personal accounts, observations and screenshots, was indeed an accurate representation and I will stand by this. It was not done in the manner of a witchhunt or because I had some grudge. To even assume that is an insult to the integrity I feel was part of the reason I was Staff in the first place. In fact, the two people are members I held in high esteem and considered friends at a stage. Therefore this was not an easy thing for me to do and I sat on a lot of what I knew for a long time before I felt it because necessary to do this. If not for immediate action then to provide an official record should it become even more necessary to do so. I have 19 years of online community moderation and administration experience. I have walked these streets and knew the warning signs. I could also see the ever-growing fractures in the community long before taking action. Does this make me paranoid? Maybe. I still believe I was acting in in the best interests of the greater community and there was no malice from my side. Nor has there ever been malice. I was a Moderator doing my job and following due diligence. I have lost a community that in part saved me the past few months. I have lost friends. This result could have been avoided and there is so sole person to blame for this. Perhaps I can too be blamed for my role in this. Make me your villain (to quote Shadow and Bone) if it makes things easier to manage. I am tired, my health has gone to shit and I want to just move along.
  19. At this stage there is little to do or say that will make this situation better. All I know is that rules are supposed to be clear and concise for all to follow and adhere to. If there is this much division between what breaking the rules actually entails, then perhaps this needs to be looked at. it also took Core Staff far too long to respond to the issue and I feel that the statement issued by Core Staff is not only erroneous but doesn’t show the big picture and how the awareness of this situation has been going on for months now. it doesn’t matter what I say. I feel like this whole thing blew up the way it did because of avoidance and poor management. I feel like the resignation of many staff was not addressed and instead their opinions dismissed. Cheers Ahoy. It’s been a blast and I do hope some of you will still be in touch.
  20. Successful after Chicken's first Zeus Op on I&A Prairie Fire.
