Smiley that's funny (cause I remember ppl here telling u to)


Was that for me?

First of all, if I was to move, it'd prolly be G-land, not Thelanis.. second, I'm currently working on trying to get ppl together for EE raids, so I have no plans on moving.

Yea, it was for you.
We are not like orien where everyone only group with people from chat channels, we put lfms up all the time, for everything.
Trying to get people to run ee raids?
Come to thelanis, put a pug, wait 5-10 min, run it.

OR? Think you mean JP. The few OR's that still play are still on Orien.

Unless u mean someone else...


hmmm, no I was told most of em moved and never really saw any them on so perhaps I was just mistaken.

But I do wonder why Americans are still playing and thed rest of the world isn't. My international friends have complained about lag and bugs too much to keep track of, but all of that happens here too. Why do we stay and they don't?


There seem to be less players during European playing hours compared to US hours. Newbs and some vets may find it discouraging or not so fun to keep playing solo or with a few people only.

Yeah, 2 years ago our Sunday guild runs spanned 3 continents. Now if we have one at all it's most likely a friend or two from my own state.

Most of the guild is active on Path of Exile now, though, so far *they* haven't had a MOTU shark to jump.

But I do wonder why Americans are still playing and thed rest of the world isn't. My international friends have complained about lag and bugs too much to keep track of, but all of that happens here too. Why do we stay and they don't?

I'd love to hear some thoughts on that, even wild ass guesses. I thought it was just my perception that the mix was tilting American, but if others are noticing too, then maybe it's real and I'd like to understand why.

There are still a lot of european people playing, I would say 30% of thelanis is from europe.
My guild has 42 people in it, 4 are not from europe.

Well, I've been too chicken to short man too much for EE posts, so I wait a bit longer for my groups, but so far we've done a few fotp runs, with friends and pug. My goal is to get a group for mod.. but we got so many newer players that aren't geared.. and ppl who don't know the raids, so it's gonna take some work to get ppl there.... but I'm optimistic.

Cause of Omni. Would be interested in running with them and learning from them. I know nothing about Thelanis.

Being a European player myself, especially one from a small guild, I can vouch for the fact that there are some fairly  active Europeans. 

It's certainly quieter than peak US time, and filling for EE raids is near impossible for me to do unless I wait it out until a later point in the evening for me. 

I deal with it though.  EE Raids are an evening thing, the rest of my time will be spent farming XP for TRs/ETRs or picking up on bits of gear that I've missed.

I haven't been saddened by anyone leaving Orien so either I truly didn't know you or you were one of the handful of cunts I wished would play in traffic  Cheesy

And this would be why people are leaving orien. Also here in America cunt is a fighting word. If you call an American a cunt ( too their face) you should expect fist in the mouth.

I never said I walk around punching people in the face for no reason. I said that calling someone a cunt in America you should expect a punch in the mouth. most people I know find that word extremely offensive.
When you live in a high crime city like Chicago you had better know how to carry yourself. ie. You don't call people cunts unless you want to fight.

Even if I call someone a cunt in Argentina I should expect a punch in the mouth even if they dont understand what does it mean?

Ah, that makes sense, thanks. Sort of a threshold that Europe hit but America hasn't yet.

I read a research paper showing an interesting shift in on-line gaming. Until fairly recently, "meeting new people" was a primary motivation for on-line gaming. In recent years, that has been replaced with "playing with people I already know".

The shift from LFM panel to private channels for raid recruiting seems to fit well with that observation.

Ah, the endless quest to understand the psychology of "Fun" Smiley
  

Turdbin, keep changing the DDO rules, because McDonalds sold over 200 billion hamburgers by changing the recipe for their Special Sauce every couple of months to keep interest up.

Euro evenings on Ghallanda are kinda dead, you can count people on two hands.
Euro guilds gone except Spellswords, Pinoy, aussie or Koreans - the same old vets only.
If you are not retarded, there are Omni runs on Sunday or sometimes during the week or Captain Crew runs at fucking 4 am gmt Wink But those are really dwindling too. So yeah ...
Looks like some activity on Thelanis and Khyber, fuck all happens on other servers ?

No new people at all. It's the same 100 people in raids.

Server activity easily triples on est evenings.
I think.
