There's a saying. "You're either part of the solution, or part of the problem". Last night on Amerish was a good example of this breaking down. Too many people saying "amerish is lost" and complaining about who's a failure.

When things get bad is when we're needed most... and tends to be when we break down the most. Next time things get hairy, lets not waste our time arguing and get some strategy done instead?

Of course, the ones causing the most problems don't come here or read this forum so hey, what can ya do?

I would like it stated the SoV and the PRG were about the only ones keeping qumu from being hacked and causing even more headaches. I sent sitreps many times for just a little more help at the tower, but no one came and rahl was the only one helping. Blaze101 kept calling all forces to the bridge battle which was a stalemate and wouldnt matter if 5 - 10 more would have come. I believe most of the problem was with blaze101 (if thats the right numbers) talking over amerish chat calling for forces where they werent needed. This happens many times, but blaze kept countering rahls request.

Possible to tell him to shut up at some point? I noticed he is all over the coms. Did he just reach CR5 or what?

Also what was with all the gen drops? I have never seen such magic in a long long time. If my squad had our gal pilot we would of been all over those TR gen drops.

you have the ability to talk to each other, makes me wonder why the CR5's counter each other. Rahl, you pull rank over blaze. We we're going to follow your squad where you were headed. I dont like it when I finally decide to whore some CEP and end up battling at a damn tower for over an hour. Not your fault that I dont go for CEP, but it makes Xenode sad when we get no help for a tower battle that should of taken 10 minutes at most.

Yeah, that bridge battle pissed me off. I don't mind spending a little while fucking with people at a bridge, but 2 hours is just retarded.

6 fucking hacks on Cetan and Ikanam got to under 5 minutes and were resecured because only 10-20 Vanu ever showed up. We handed the TR a cave lock because me and 5 others were the only ones who went to Ikanam when it was driven neutral.

The gendropping was an annoyance we shouldn't have had to dael with. The only time we had Tumas gens up for more than 20 minutes was when I layed every bit of CE I could and camped it with a BFR by myself. I managed to keep the gen up for about an hour. But I got lonely and left.

A 2 hour battle for a goddamn bridge.....

Full of assheads that are letting TR get Gen Drops all over a continent.....

All because of ONE CR5's 'orders'.....

This defies logic. This defies sense. This is the very definition of absurd and inane.

I really would like to see this guy, or any major participater of this crap, post here. I personally wan't someone to give an explanation for this crap.

But, like Guru noted, they probably won't. And I don't go to Hell's Toilet (ForumSide), so I don't know, nor care, what they would say there.

Hell, they're probably ranting on about how they could have used more help, when this fuck-up was because of their own ineptness.

The CR5 is one thing, but what's really horrible is that most of the game's players are going along with someone like that.

I just don't get it. Don't you heatbags have brains of your own?

All I can really say is that these are exactly the kinds of things that make me truly dread coming back to PlanetSide. :|

Amerish was fun and we won in the end. The bridge thing might have been fun. But I enjoyed myself on amerish for a while :D

I was having a blast, then it just stopped because rahls squad/platoon and my squad were the only ones doing anything, or trying to do anything productive. there is really no reason to call all mag n00bs to the bridge battle. My mag drivers and gunners can handle a simple bridge battle its easy as pie. Ask for AA MAX's and the BFR's will come naturally and the mags just have to be placed on each side of the bridge.

I would like to know if GoTR's Phantom Guard was on amerish that night? If so, you guys couldnt of held the bridge? It's just fustrating when you sitrep repeatedly, send help as we are outnumbered but holding. When we look at the map and see the same hotspots over and over in the middle of nowhere. They rolled an armor column twice to qumu. We were able to fend it off. They pushed out of the tower numerous times. The same 15 or less VS were holding Qumu for the rest of the 115+ VS. Thats just stupid and I know my squad was getting tired of it. This is a team effort and blaze101 instead of listening to rahls reasoning just called for forces to stay.

That name sounds familiar, but I don't think I've heard it till about the time I had to cut my sub, really. (November/Decmeber)

Or maybe that was another guy with the name Blaze... Bah. :roll:

The other guy named Blaze is an NC CR5.

Yeah, that sounds about right. I think I might have killed him once before.

Or, maybe he killed me, rofl. :mrgreen:

well in either case just start telling him to shut up. If he is new, there is a time to voice your opinion, and then there is just being an ass countering every logical order. It really gets annoying. I have never seen blaze before he got CR5 and was spewing orders, and I sure as hell dont listen to them as they are 3/4's retarded. I dont agree with some calls made and you dont see me on here bashing CR5's but blaze is really getting to be a pest. so if anyone knows his story let us know a I have neve seen the guy. Not even in the killspam.

We've been constantly dealing with Blaze101 lately. He ALWAYS wants Cyssor to be primary as well.

Guru actually fired him a few days ago. It was enjoyable.
