And I'm at a loss as to how the title Commanding Lord suddenly makes you anything more or less of a leader, apart from the ability to grant titles - which Minax will likely never any towns for ;D

It's attitudes like that makes Minax a shadow of its former self. Your negative attitude brings shame to the people who used to fight for Minax.God knows how you ever got in DDi

Thing is... Factions will still suck in pub25
Will be the same old story ever since aos...
Minax have tryed to being active again and then no-one raid!
Or they raid but they outnumber us 4vs1 and they all have artis...
Lets just hope the second alternative wont happend...
Im quite sure #1 will happend sometimes :/

What the fuck are you smoking Corra? At the moment there are, phwoar two active Minax? Both of whom generally play at Yew. I'm not even one of them because PvP is so bollocks with people like half your guild running around spamming 20hp lightnings and thinking its fun that I just dont have the will to play. Other factions have better items, greater numbers - so regardless of skill, luck or willpower Minax have no chance unless the other factions just "let" us have the towns. I remember when Minax was in her prime, I remember the gigantic raids and even remember the IGM Talos thing where we won our statue - that kicked ass, the internal war with DDi vs Sax/M*D which brought weeks, months of entertainment and made Minax truly unique and interesting, alright I was a newbie back then and only aspired to be DDi one day but damn I was there and damn I remember it  However people who USED to fight for Minax are gone, the very finest (DDi of course) play other games or pre-pub16 PR shards because this game's production shards are officially shit. Other old Minax have also quit or like JIB gone to other factions and teamed up with the likes of ActualFantasy (now there's something that brings shame to a faction). All thats left now are Minax Elfson and Goa in the Shadows of Clowns guild? Plus me from time to time if I fancy having a go? I'll be back in p25, probably still Minax but I might try out CoM or SL for a while to see if the grass is really greener on the other side of the fence. Some people will try playing again but fact is some asshole will find another unstoppable template, another array of bugs to put at his disposal and other ways to abuse the game to get an unfair edge over other people, not to mention the game will still be full of little bastards who's balls havent dropped yet and probably never will before they have them chopped off in some kind of new teen fad. It will still be shit, just less shit. The only reason I still play is because my computer cant handle Shadowbane (thus I cant rejoin DDi there) and because UO just has some kind of magic that keeps me wanting to play, not to mention OSI dangling the carrot of p25 in front of my nose saying "lookie lookie, you might get a decent fight in future if you keep paying your money!". Which I know I wont since its UO, if they dont make it shit then we have no improvements to look forward to, to keep paying our money in the vague hope of seeing some day in the future like always. *emotional rant*  In other words go grow a mullet, drink ice tea and shut the fuck up about Minax being a "shadow of its former self" - could you point out anything more obvious? The sky is blue. Grass is normally green. Snow is white unless tampered with. Go choke, thanks. |

AoS or not, what makes factions fun is numbers. Massive battles. Long sieges. Internal bickering. All that was part of the old days, and its up to us to rebuild it.
I for one will be holding the Minax flame alives, and I still do. We need a new UOAM for a start!

If you doubt minax is the best we are better off withouth you haleorn. |

I'm just not blinded by pure arrogance and pride to think that Minax has any hope of securing at this point in time, with barely three people and sod all in terms of items against the arti'd up masses of CoM, TB and SL? Dont like it? Think I shouldnt call it as I see it? Boo fucking hoo, tough titties.
I've little doubt that we were the best. But you dont even play Production shards Amp, so have no idea of what its like, so stfu. Meanwhile Barney you basically havent played in months (though if you did it would kick ass, and I suppose a UOAM ran by someone who actually plays would be a good idea)
Add me to ICQ by the way Barney... 325452832

I dont play no. I have played yes.
I quit like Januari 5th and i very much doubt the situation on OSI has changed so much that i dont understand it.
You clearly dont belive in minax.
i KNOW minax is the best... That dosnt mean we will secure or win tho. Its Age of items now and since the other factions got lots of trammies and artis they might win.
But with equal terms and numbers minax will win.
Do you think you are better than most of the arti abusers? Howcome? With their artis they kill you so how can you be better than them?
Thats the way you seem to think atm.
This is how i define best;
The winner on equal terms.

Well be glad you quit, because PvP is still shit. I know Minax is "the best" spiritually and in heart and all that, in my eyes as well, as a faction to be in, because of its history and lovely fashion options. But I'm talking about the ability to raid, defend, secure? With equal terms and numbers anyone can win, thats what makes a fair match so exciting remember, part of what made PvP kick ass years ago  . But its not equal terms. I'm not on about "who's the best" on equal terms, I'm on about "who's going to win through the means provided". Which is inclusive of hugely outnumbered ganks, item whorage. Get this Amp! We have jack shit in items AND numbers compared to other factions! So we're certainly at a disadvantage in any fight. Do you actually have a point or are you just being a dumbass?  |

My point is: If ppl stop crying about the situation and give minax 100% of their love there wont be any problems. Many Com and TB will move back to trammel and SL is already weak and kinda refuse to teamplay with anyone that joins SL so they are quite fucked already... Minax has pretty much always welcomed new people and played fairly altho many of minaxians sold out to i-c and welcomed them and their artis wich led to me resigning minax. Odds are JIB will join minax and with fc 2 and sdi cap and shit like that, why not? altho i hear that they are arti fags atm... Minax has done many comebacks in AOS but as i said it has been failiures in the long run since no-one wanted to raid or if they raided they had massive amount of artis, bolas and lameplay in their bag... I see new hope in pub25 the only downside iv seen so far with pub25 is the gaylord cure/poison changes. |

Your such a dumbass Amp  . You quit Minax, you quit factions and you dont even play Production shards anymore. I would presume "love" involves staying in your faction? Or am I missing something. You coming back for p25 dare I even ask? |

Quite simply because the only reason I play is my friends and if they're in another faction then so am I . Plus these are people I've met real life and trust more than anyone else in game so......  |
