Robot Arena 2's Civil War

[090901]

Old forums were 10x more fun. Dunno why. Maybe it was because everyone was better than me.

There were also more active member who did things other than RPG threads all day.

There are some members that don't even build anymore, they just post in RPG threads.

I liked the old forums quite a bit.  When it got shut down by Atari (or whoever) I was really bummed out and didn't like the changeover to GTM.  Frankly, I considered just giving up and dropping the game/community altogether.  (and quite a few members did that actually)

But, gotta praise ACAMS here, he has done a great job listening to our feedback and making adjustments to the forum.  GTM now is waaaaaay better than it was back then.

Frezal is right, the true war was between the Aceuplink vs official forum.  That was quite a war from what I have heard.

Stock vs DSL? I'm on the DSL side... stock lost its fun for me when stacking became an artform.

^ That reminds me, I'm a vet, Scrap's a vet, why aren't you a vet? We all arrived pretty much in the same week.

good point.. a few people missed promotions as they weren't around at the time the staff nominated.. so your not alone JD..

[Jack Daniels]

Heh. No biggie. I am still happy with my "advanced user".   :D   Vet status will come around whenever, my fault for missing out when noms were made.

to bad people don't get promoted because they came from the old RA2 boards. =P

as for the whole Stock vs DSL thing... i'm with DSL. i dislike unrealistic building and that is exactly what Stock is.

[JoeBlo]

yeah but DSL has pushed "realism" so far you may as well play stock.. at least that's what im doing now :P

This thread reminds me of the Futurama's moon conquest history ride...
