SVS why do you care..? he was banned for something that was worth a ban. You have your rules and 17th parallel has theirs. Its abuse in both zones only one is a bit stricter on its rules. Many would say that your level of leniency is wrong.

...omg but he misused ?help ..I'm not even staff and get it. Mike can talk to whoever the -*BAD WORD*- he wants.

When a player is called a name they are told to use ?ignore but when its a sysop they can ban? That not professional, thats like walking around with a loaded gun pointing it at anyone who looks at you in the wrong way. However in this case it was through help channels which means ban.. sry foof i lub u..

well thats misuse of the help command which is worth a weeks ban so no complaint.

Tablet are you having homosexual thoughts!? You must be a veteran now!

I eject poo at 0.34 metres per second

Nope.. i'd have to stick with raping small animals.

raping small animals

I don't think any of those ideas would make anyone happy.

We ALL Lub U Cemcil!

nez is right, changing the map should be the priority. It doesn't take long to get bored to death with the map there is in pub.

well its arranged so 8th seed plays 1st seed (2nd vs 7th and so on) and so will probably lose against that team. Although with any less than 12 teams its better if just the top 4 go into the playoffs: 1st vs 4th, 2nd vs 3rd which should be done this season since we have about 9 or 10 squads i think.

Rish turned gay when he became jokers homo.. i mean.. err nvm probably right.

Everything in 17th is fine actually.. svs put it all into perspective. SVS for Sysop!

screw that, i don't want to see the old weasel, spider, levi or warbird back in this zone evr again. The only ships that were any good were the jav, terr and lanc.

I myself play from beyond the grave and was born in 1500 A.D. but please vote truthfully.

Woo! thankxies epox! I think a realy grreat present from the 17th parallel staff would be ownership of the zone for a day.. Hows about it!!??

Lets have enough speed to outrun all the bombs but the levis. Lets have cloak and stealth so half the ships can't see us. Lets have a bomb which can kill any other ship and lets give that bomb a massive hit radius. Lets fire that bomb from half way across the arena where we are completely safe. Lets be able to press the insert key and warp out whenever a terrier isn't around. Lets realise that there is no skill in a ship that either kills immediately or dies immediately with almost no dodging or aim required. GG

Well i was proposing the changes to be made in pub so that we could have improved leagues. I am a shark player and couldn't care a great deal if i lost stealth and cloak in exchange for a repel and a bit more energy. The spider players may give more negative feedback but it is only stealth they'd be losing so they can still creep up on unexperienced players to kill but they'd have to use portals more effectively to catch out the experienced players. With 50 more energy it should keep some sort of balance.. afterall they have wicked guns too.

Its a cat. A CAT! Foxes are sly!

Well I have no problem with cloakers in pub. However when they are put into a league all about killing skills and not basing skills things get a little stupid. In leagues ship-changing isn't an option and with only 2 x-radar ships it doesn't make alot of difference when you are not allowed more than one of a ship. 3 cloakers is too many. My proposed solution: 1. Remove the sharks cloak and stealth and give it a repel and +50 energy. 2. Remove only the spiders stealth so a player would have to use radar to spot them. Since spiders have portals anyway this shouldn't hurt them a great deal. Also give them +50 energy.

For once madhaha is right. The easier this zone becomes the less skill it takes and the less interested players who have been here more than a week become.

i wish you wouldn't post at all sometimes

Heh everyone must go through the "madhaha training program" when new to the matrix.. err.. 17th forum. Just never listen to a word he says and you'll save alot of time.

Nice idea for the shark. We can always do with less cloakers in this zone, especially if we ever want a successful multiship league that isn't based on pub-style soccer. The terrier ideas aren't bad either could use some tweaking like maybe making those guns lvl1 and a slower rate of fire (just my opinion). I was also a fan of the old terrier (pre-zeke), it was just as powerful as the javelin which is why is should have never been changed. I doubt anyone would consider these ideas since the people that tend to get the job have ideas of their own (example: zeke changing the jav because he never liked it when % of the zone loved the ship) To get them to be considered you hvae to own your own arena and construct the settings from there.
