pmnet down and fucked, but mnet is still up!

That's just stupid. Don't you realise that there are people beyond me who suffer. Marathoners... for example?

Hillarious

Man playmyth is being condascending. It's bad enough M.net crashed, but to then mock them in the mainlobby menu, that's just rude. PM already won the server wars, yeesh what a bunch of jerks.

You mean the blue bar message? I think its just pointless because all parties concerned publicly state we're 'leaving it in the past where it belongs' or something to that regard.

Don't say 'bunch' of jerks though - you can't tell who approves of it and who doesn't.

Well, obviously the people ultimately in charge agree or it would be changed, and presumably the subordinates of those people agree as well, or, if they felt strongly about it they would bring about change, or leave.

I agree about top of the tree. Subordinates are harder to judge though - if they realize they have no influence over it but can at least try to solve SOME problems in a state of power....this is like the whole 'I was too scared of Hitler not to be a Nazi' debate. I'm too lazy to argue this out, that arguments been raging since 1945.

The playmyth community needs the dictators it has. Without them it would be a rambling mess of abusive players and constant disagreement.. not that we dont have that but it would be worse =)

The bluebar message about backups seemed a little barbed and unnecessary to me as well (and very petty). The dig at mariusnet isn't exactly a community builder, but on the other hand no one said the announcements on playmyth have to be. Offhand, I can't recall whether Playmyth's mission statement has anything about "encouraging people to play myth wherever they please" or not.

It's funny but it wasn't until I read this thread that I even thought of connecting the blue bar message to Mariusnet's recent problems. What is the point of going over and over something a stupid as a blue bar message?

For the record, Mnet is back up.... the power supply in my server blew.

As for PMnet and their messages... fuck em, it's just the same juvenile bullshit that has been their hallmark since Day 1. That battle is long dead in my eyes and they're the only ones that give a rats ass about it anymore. Both servers could disappear forever for all I care. I honestly don't even know why I keep Mnet going except that I was asked to.

Hail PPE, sorry to hear about the power supply. A few of us still enjoy that nostalgia factor that Mnet carries. There was to be a get together of a few uDogs, FoGs and similar Mnet Alumni on your server last weekend, but sadly we had to defer to PMnet to beat each other up.

I look forward to having a similar phonging on Mnet soon.

No it isn't. I won't get shot for admitting that I think Blades and some of his staff (past and present) are fuckers.

But you used the Nazi analogy in an online discussion which according to my Netiquette manual (circa 1992) automatically cancels out anything you have to say in this thread.
