  1. Only when he's really excited, and chasing a ball up the hallway
  2. I swear he's part dog! He plays fetch, chews through boxes, and runs sideways! Look at all that floof!
  3. And to celebrate 2500 posts, my new fur baby! Meet Benji!
  4. The map reset destroyed years worth of building, terraforming, breeding etc, so it's fairly logical that you'd see a pretty sizeable drop-off from that. At least with this transfer there's an "out" of sorts on offer alongside some massive changes to the cluster, so you can continue to enjoy the game in a rather similar way without being too affected by it all.
  5. That is one of the nicest Mk2 Golfs I've seen! Must be one of the few that haven't been cambered and "stanced", I approve of the look you've gone for!
  6. I'm going to turn up just to fall into the pit now!
  7. Exactly. Just like our skills on Epic.
  8. Someone coming with a transfer isn't going to make your skills drop. Your skills wouldn't, and aren't, affected by it. It's your perception of it that appears to be the issue here. Enemy kingdoms already do. It's called Valrei Scenarios, and just like grinding skills on either cluster, it takes effort. So what stops you wearing that title with pride, knowing that you went through the longer grind for it? Why do you need other people to make you feel validated? Someone coming from Epic with a skill transfer isn't suddenly going to make your skills decrease, you know. I think you're forgetting that us Epic folks didn't ask for our cluster to die, nor for it to be left for nigh on two years Of course you couldn't care, you're not being affected by it. Is it really that difficult to show some damn empathy for your fellow Wurmian? You are not getting "screwed", you are not being "hurt". That's a false belief beyond words.
  9. That was scrapped long before release. You're clutching at straws here buddy.
  10. Can I ask something. How would someone transferring 1:1 from Epic, or even at the current formula, affect you?
  11. You're trying to get peoples skills nerfed. Pathetic.
  12. How will various titles work with the transfer? Premium titles already don't cross clusters, nor does the "Educated" title (to my knowledge, I don't actually have that one). Will skill titles come with us? What about unique kill ones like "Fearless", "Dragonslayer" etc? The suffix meditation titles? The prefix tome titles? I understand the worries of the tome powers, but do the titles from them really hurt?
  13. And? You aren't forced to buy the accounts for that price.
  14. I think we all know how that would go. More than likely it'd be an overwhelming majority of votes saying "no, don't let them bring anything, even skills".
  15. Because it isn't insulting to have those with a similar mindset to yourself, crying about "But mah markets" and "Mah monies!", painting us all with the same brush? You're being referred to as a capitalist because that's all your arguments boil down to. The market, and the ability to make money from it.
  16. I'm of the opinion that map resets don't do anything to help long term. Sure, they gave Affliction and Elevation a short term boost, but that eventually trickled off and left us with the same, if not lower, amount of people than you started off with. Map resets are incredibly risky. You destroy peoples work in the hope that more people will come to the server. The past times this has been done, it hasn't worked out. If we get to the point where we absolutely need a map reset, bring back to old Elevation map! The new one is too big.
  17. Alright then, so no Freedomer should be given the opportunity to transfer 1:1 to Epic either. They've got skills they've grinded for years in complete safety. They haven't needed to put up with gimped stat gains. They don't have anything planned to completely change their cluster. It would take Epic players a fair while to catch up to that. I was actually in favour of a transfer from Freedom to Epic, it does seem like a way to get more players to it. However, this should also be reciprocated. Epic players should be given a 1:1 transfer to Freedom, it's the least we deserve after all.
  18. You mean like you're attempting, and failing I might add, to misinform others about our mythical tonnes of moonmetal, our endless dragon armour, or our magical fountain that spits out tomes to every passerby who emotes at it.
  19. How could I not make such an assumption, given that you appear to be one of the most high profile merchants in Wurm. Why would it concern you? I'm sorry, but when have you ever been involved in PvP? Again, you're making assumptions. Caches full of it? Couldn't be further from the truth when it comes to my server. A pocketful at best. "For the last time I'll state this, you don't know me at all, you think you do but you don't. @Firestartercan you say the same for the rest of epic? So sorry if I don't take your word for it." I could say exactly the same thing to you, given that you're also spouting off assumptions about Epic players. "I do not speak for freedom here, but I am certain they would be against a flood of rares, supremes, fantastics, drake, scale, tomes, moon metal. " Unless you speak for the entirety of the Freedom population, you'd be better of changing that to "I don't want these things here" rather than claiming absolutely nobody wants them. "If you're going to take my words and twist them to further your agenda here then this isn't a fair debate and it's not reasonable." Again, I could say this, word for word, right back at you. "I have played on epic or have in the past on a alt account, but why does that even matter, do you want to fight me or something?" It matters because you're making claims that are entirely untrue. The only way you'd be making those claims is if you've never been to Epic. "Why don't you just go ahead and make item transfers happen, I'm sure the Devs listen to you over a silly freedomer." Why would they? Why does my opinion matter more than someone else's?
  20. There are no items on Epic that cannot be gained on Freedom, so there goes that flimsy argument of yours. Like Niki, you assume that everyone's out to sell their items. No, we really aren't. Perhaps that's a sign of your own desires. Like I pointed out in my reply to Niki, I'd bring a handful of items that I have some sentimental attachment too, not forgetting these are the only items I have left now, like my primary equipment. I can look at it and go "I remember using it in a fight with this person" or "I remember slaying the Champion Troll King with this".
  21. And you can get plenty from rifts, or by doing HoTA on Chaos, your point being? Assume much? Not all of us are obsessed with money. I'd love to use my equipment on Freedom alongside my skills, I couldn't care less about selling it. Perhaps a couple of my HoTA statues and my JK liveried stuff as decorations. Again, there's no desire in my mind to sell them. Whereas it seems you only want to make sure that you and "your kind" can continue to make high profits on items, other people's enjoyment be damned. And I don't like how "your kind" is pushing their agenda to make sure your precious profit isn't affected in any way that isn't raising it. You're right, I do assume that. In my five years on Epic, I've never once seen you there. That makes me question how much you actually know, and how much you're making assumptions about. Currently, it would appear that you're on the side of incorrect assumptions.
