How would everyone feel about making D.Class uncapturable?

possible pros and cons

Pros: Virals would have 2 less spam ships that can quickly and cheaply be spammed to high pr, marauders would have a class of ships entirely all there own, and may lead to more diversity between virals

Cons: shiplist reset for virals (which also leads to lots of work for staff but no problem if agreed upon), virals lose 3 possible ships, and other races have hard time cause they can`t expect virals to angel or bull spam any more (would this really be bad tho?)

im going to start working.. i`m expecting a very constructive reply from pp here.. his very own constructive reply.. cheers..

/me reads pp previous and previous and previous posts and don`t know where the constructivity is.. u mean the give viral less ships to rev eng?? lol.. might as well use other race.. no need to rev eng at all.. case solved..

i`m flaming.. bad bad me.. :(
C Crack
sorry pp u`re the constructive one.. the one who wanna delete rt.. the one who think turnbased are more active.. the one who think tb makes more money.. the one who whine just bcoz taking away dclass makes viral less affordable ships to buy (lol at this) the one who dismiss win/rate ratio

i knowwin/lose ratio is not that impt lol bcoz stacking and building ur empire properly is much more better but again i say i THINK i understand the ships technicalities better than africa as my stats are in the positive when i can be hit every 24hrs whereas his stats are in the negative when he`s in newb protection.. u mean he came out above newb to lose?? or issit to give away planet..

maybe terran should be a paid, guard unpaid..

pp ur the smart one.. the one who think you`re correct.. only you and you alone.. oh and africa too.. just for once.. try to think logically.. not creatively..

and i`m a n00b?? what are u pp.. u didn`t make it clear..
P PistolPete
You aint constructive Crack. Go call me a n00b if you like to, i already classified you as one, and at least I argued why ;)

And ya.. Everybody should really consider being miners or guards as things are atm. I do at least. However if you use more than a half year building an empire - it may just not make sense to switch.
C Crack
this is where we all can see.. that pp is a newb too.. lol.. anyone else..

mk then be guards..

I dont think removing D class ships from virals will solve anything. Spamming virals will still spam. I only play on fast and I have never seen a pyth or angel spam, but apparently its a big problem somewhere...

Besides that, with the curent changes made, I think guards will become way overpowered compared to virals (they are allready compared to others) if D class is taken from virals.
P PistolPete
Still.. Spamming is mainly a RT problem.

I would love much more if viral had some ships of their own which where balanced to their economy. Cut the number of ships that can be RE and give viral som ships of their own.

Delete viral isn`t very constructive. If I where like this I would insist that we must delete the RT server!

I still don`t think removing D.class is a good idea. As stated virals wil have 2 less spam ships.. Hmm.. As i see it virals will have fewer ships that they can afford to buy. How is it that this will not lead to even more spamming?
"
quote from pp..

like wtf.. rev eng other ships.. stack not spam.. spamming is a very one sided and i believe stacking is a more better judgement on how good a player knows about the ship technicalities.. maybe not way too much better off but still..

viral to rev eng their 3 preferred ships from 3 different race.. isn`t that gr8.. which other race gives that..

note i call people newb when they rattle off their mouth without thinking and still being adamant about it..
gilead.. i never say none paid terrans or miner.. just saying there`s not much..

dclass made uncapturable.. a few marus ships are being suggested to change.. and bulls are not even the 3rd best ship in maru shiplist currently.. as dm and a few others have pointed out, the ship has been used mainly to spam to higher pr.. actually if dclass is being made uncapturable and if viral really do stack, their rev eng maru ships would actually be more unpredictable.. thus making them better off without dclass ships..

if anyone who plays gc just love spamming dclass, be maru then.. problem solved..
T TheWorldUnited
yerr can we all stop bashing each other and get back to the point at hand >.<

should virals be allowed to re d-class or not

i am still sided towards that they should not be given d class ships

rofl @ Crack... calling Africa a newb is a joke!

and about turn based terrans with paid-accounts: on two of the three servers I play (all non-RT btw) I am a terran with a paid account...

and win-lose stats are not very relevant on turn based servers, especially the slower you get (as losing 3 borders saves 15 turns.....)

having said that: I would not mind Virals losing D-class (sorry Africa :P)
C Crack
i`m going to have a nap.. and i expect a newb countertalk from u africa when i wakeup.. the way u put it so nice and interesting but being so childish like a spoilt child who just wailed when he didn`t get what he wants.. lol..

if i`m a n00b, what are u pp.. lol.. :P anyway he`s the one who wanted to make it a big hoohoo haahaa blah blah bah..
P PistolPete
Well. IMO people who care about the win/loss ratio are n00bs. You can`t judge an empire that way at all...

Don`t want to pull the dissucion further apart from what we were discussing originally, so lets end it here.
C Crack
thats a newb guardian stats for rt.. my 1st/old account of being mainly miner was way better.. lol..
C Crack
Battles won 341
Battles lost 304

as viral on slow ur stats sure do suck.. at 1st i thought i had wanted to agree with dm that rt virals suck but i see a slow viral suck as well.. lol..
P PistolPete
I still dont understand why you posted the stats in Africas guard empire.
C Crack
tell me why viral should and must have d class when they can`t have k class.. both are supposed to be from unplayable race aren`t they..

and i don`t mean from the top 30.. i mean those being active.. i don`t think there`s a a reasonable number of terran miner with paids.. less so with tb..

and when i look again at all these posts, i can still see that whichever factor u`re not winning the debate on, u kept mum.. sigh.. anything else..
P PistolPete
I don`t understand what you are able to tell from those stats?

Anyway.. the distribution africa posted is really interesting, and to me just points out again, that this is a RT problem.
C Crack
oops.. i mean b4 mid 04.. around late 03 or early 04..

anyway..

lol.. i poo poo poo at ur stats and that too as a guard and under newb protection.. i`m usually above 5k pr and my stats as mainly terran goes like this
Empire age 91 day(s)
Battles won 373
Battles lost 283
Colonies won 873
Colonies lost 457
Colonies explored 887
Planets plundered 1,791

certain days i lost as my current work, Singapore Armed Forces, the army of my nation prevents me from having access to electricity as we are in the jungle sometimes.. thus i couldn`t be around for my empire.. though i`ve taken 2 vm so far which don`t total more than 2weeks.. maybe lesser than 10 days.. reserch lvls more than 115 though 2 was from mission if i`m not wrong.. and i`ve been playing at my work mostly.. where sometimes i have to answer an emergency calls or attend to something in the midst of my ships building..

being so, i think i`m a better stacker than u and knows abit more than u on the technicalities of the ships than u newb africa.. LoL..
thus i honestly think u`re redundant to all the topics which is geared towards a change for a more balance game..

Did I ever say that people should listen to just me? No, I didnt!.. There are plenty of people here who the game, so no, not just me.

Not sure what all your memory talk is about, if you had an accident or something then of course, fair enough that you were away. Not gonna take that away, but the point is still that I DONT CARE how long you played rt, nor how much you stack there and bla bla. I dont think that RT gives ANY picture of the other serves. Theres no bull-spamming virals on fast or slow for that matter.

Sure you can call me a whiner, frankly Im starting to feel like one, but I still havent heard a good argument why virals shouldnt have angels except the ones coming from rt saying you have the big spams there (which imo sounds like whine, but whatever).

You want an equal distribution of players among the races as I understand, right?
I just did a quick counting of the races in top 30 on TB:
Terran = 42
Miner = 26
Guard = 14
Viral = 21
Collective = 14
Maru = 3

Sure, marus are underrepresented, but isnt that logical considering the way they make money?
Is this distribution so messed up? I certainly dont think so! You could argues (as you do) that paid players chose virals over the other races, but its difficult to say how many miners/terrans etc are actually paid and whos not.
C Crack
lol.. africa.. whichever server i see it, among those with paid.. virals outnumber guardians and marauders add up..

"
Crack, we`re done debating this, and I honestly hope people making the decisions ind the end does not listen to anything youve put forth so far..
"

listening based only on u then?? lol.. what makes u think they should listen to u.. lol.. i don`t care about people not listenng to me coz my i came back to spacefed to do a bit of rehab for my loss of memory.. and to especially to piss off whiners like u.. who think they`re accomplished but complains every little bit just bcoz they couldn`t win against a certain race or two..

and if u wanna mention the fact that i JUST CAME BACK lol.. well yeah.. and if u think just bcoz if u`ve been playing for quite some time.. well MAYBE.. as my rt account says i came on dec 04.. with 0 stats.. practically 0 wins, 0 plunder blah blah bah.. but that was when i had cracked my head in lots of places thus couldn`t remember my 1st account.. thus having made this rt account on dec 04, i then didn`t restart playing but tried to piece my memory together and leading a normal life both at the same time.. darn i`m straying from the topic.. but if i do remember correctly, i came here b4 mid 03.. blah blah bah..

so what makes u think they should listen based on what u and a few other whiners out there when there are alot more of others who don`t whine like u..

/me used to see alot of new players whine about.. /me rarely calls them newb.. /me only calls them newb when they think everything that goes on in gc, revolves around them when its actually the opposite..
and these whiners.. their arguments are generally good but its bcoz they take into the factors only which they think they can be proven right.. and others they dismissed..
for a starti say, rt bring in more money than tb adds up i think.. so usually the majority wins..

p.s /me knows the /me don`t work here.. blah blah bah.. or as rare would say.. ya

Africa, crack was talking about RT, and he is fairly old there, maybe not the biggest and best fighter around, be he actually does stack, and not pretty bad too. He might turn up to be older player than you as well.

Not all virals spam, it is RT thing to do but RT virals generally suck and have always sucked so it is a normal thing.
