Mike is kind of right pointing out that huge amount of energy has been used in the past and that BBB probably need to start recruit some high stat members OR start focus on training if having any chance in Diamond +
We kind of expected that something about B3 was going to be said here about our loss to JUX. But in my opinion, we did really well against people that were 4x our stats. I think that not even mentioning the work of what "low stat players" did would be insane. They were the ones that helped us high stat players out the most.
CR and the main factions are all filled with old players who have been around Torn for a long time. B3 was a new faction that is almost 3 years old now. Obviously we are not going to have the same caliber of stats as old players. And I don't think it is wrong to encourage new players to join a faction who are loyal to us and who helped out the most while we help build them up.
My intention is not to be rude to you both and I understand where you are coming from. Just because we chain a lot, doesn't mean we don't train a bunch. Every faction has their own goals, and CR or whoever else shouldn't put their goals on our faction. We inform players that join, of how we run things and they still decide to join. What is so wrong with that?
In regards to training, we just finished a 2 month training break. Prior to that training break, we had another 2 months. While I understand you would like to give advice, it would be nice if you have all the facts of the matter.
Nonetheless, I have to give it to JUX for being so awesome. They are a force, but that doesn't mean B3 isn't either.
Yes Thanks for taking the advice in a good way. Look forward to see BBBs development, I am sure you guys will be as impressive in the battle some time from now as you have been climbing in respect!
If you keep your current members and they start hitting the 2b+ range in stats you guys are gonna be f**king scary
Our stats helped us win this time but the activity and dedication of your guys is immense
B3 will eventually be like the calculated/ relentless of old, full of super active members who may not be the strongest once in a war but their teamwork will make them a force to be recond with
It was great to fight u now before you get to the scary stage and if CR don't take you up on the offer of letting your members teach them some things we just might as we have plenty of growing to do too
Meh, initially, I wasnt even really looking to give advice as much as was making an observation to the question in the topic, I threw the advice in for free because i didnt want anyone to think there was any malice in my answer.
I just popped back in to "nanny nanny booboo" because I feel like my point, although not taken too seriously back then, was kind of reinforced by the outcome of this war... and because I'm petty sometimes.
Remember when IBB was on top of the respect rankings forever? I'm down with IBB and they have proven their mettle on the battlefield here lately, but back then, they were #1 and pretty much would get stomped by any of the 8-9 teams below them. They chained their asses off to make sure they held the rank, and avoided all the DBs everyone else was eating, but everyone knew they weren't really a top faction. The rank was meaningless, but they put a great deal of importance on keeping it. It never made sense to me then, and it doesnt make sense to me now.
After 10m, you're pretty much all set on perks, so besides feeding YOU bonus hits like they were apples, and you were Ms.Pac Man, I really dont see why the emphasis on putting all that E into a meaningless endeavor like this.
Get those nubs in the gym and forget about being the "Paper Champion" in respect, or you're gonna keep getting munched by any legit HOF faction you try to take on.
Instead of taking umbrage at my advice, you should instead remember that I've been exactly where you guys are now, and around year 3 is when we began our transition from "Active nub faction with good respect" to "Legit long time top 5 faction", and we did that shit on the battlefield, and in the gym.
Not true at all.... I may proffer an opinion or 3, but at the end of the day, i could really gaf what they do. I dont play there, and frankly will probably not be around to see them actually make a run at CR or any of the top 5, so it matters not to me. .
Just spittin a little truth in case anyone over there thinks they're doing something smart with the whole "chain til we drop" thing.. its a forum, I can share opinions and points of view, right ?
And of course Lily will defend what they do with her dying breath. If I was her, a team of horses couldnt drag me outta there. lol
