Please take time to read my post, eventhough I know now it is going to be long.

Reading some replies here makes my blood boil.
Not to anyone particular but in general, as it makes me realize I am not the only asshole in Renegade.
In fact, this thread shows just how much arrogance and hatred there is in Renegade world.

If TT patch is going to mingle with the A00 nicks that would be a very bad thing in my opinion.
One that will destroy what little balance there is in Renegade.

Spoony, I have nothing against you, but I have to quote you and reply to something you said in your first post:
Quote:

This authority was not given to Jelly by EA or by Westwood or even by Strike-Team. This authority
was not elected by the community either. This authority was seized.

The authority to go to EA and request to make a patch for Renegade was neither given.
This was seized just the same.
Why did Jelly create those nicknames? The same reason why you want to make TT patch: because you can, and because it will benefit what you like.

Now, just because the TT crew has the ability and knowledge to make this patch, does not mean you are any higher in Ranks than anyone that else.
I have not seen that been said or claimed by any TT crew, but I can somehow taste that in the mouth reading about the anger towards the A00 monopoly.
So just imagine what would happen if Jelly got a team together to make a patch for Ren, and went to EA just before you did.
Would you not want to defend what you hold dear?

So in the end, what are we going to do?
We all want our servers to be filled, whether we host them ourselfs or just play there.
Now, Jelly was there first to claim the top 10 nicknames.
And therefor he holds the monopoly over Renegade servers when it comes to player counts.
So what does the TT crew do? We're going to make a patch that renders the power of those nicks to the same level as any other nick.
What the fuck kind of game is being played here.
We should make a card game of this, like Pokémon cards.
YES! I got a jelly.
Woops, damn, a TT can render me powerless.

Maybe we can all stop thinking about what WE find important for ourselfs and start thinking of how this might in fact NOT be good.

I am a current Biology science student, and have also followed studies in human psychology.
No, I am not going to brag about my accomplishments, but I do hope however that this can at least make you consider what I am going to say next.

We humans are creatures of habit.
We do things the same way because it makes us feel safe.
We drive in a certain way, eat our food in a certain way, arrange and order our lives the way we want to.
By default, we don't like change.
You can argue that you do, but that doesn't make it less true what I say.
If something big changes the order we have in our lifes, we rarely like it.

So just look forward to this:
Our everyday XWIS n00b logs on and has to look through the list to find their favorite server.
Everyday that list looks different.
"hey there were some pretty nice ppl on that server last night, but what was it called again?"

Why destroy the order there is now!
Because you think it is unfair?
It will do renegade no good to change this order.
What is wrong with the way it is now?
There is a server with people for everyone, to fit everyone's taste.
Does anyone here not have a server to play on then?
If the answer is no, because your favo server isn't getting the traffic it used to have, that brings to light a totally different problem, that "sorting by player count" will definitely not fix

The problem in renegade is not looks, bugs or what not.
The problem in renegade is the ratio between server count and player count.
Renz0r recently merged with Exodus, and I think if Renegade as a whole will do good if more communities set aside their differences/stopped competing with each other and simply worked together.
If renegade only had about 20 servers those servers would flourish.
It would also cut down on a lot of money spend by people, or that money put together from renting 2 separate boxes to rent 1 box with much more performance.

Ok, I kind of wondered from my initial point, which is:
TT patch should not change the order of the server list.
It is fine the way it is, and it can only destroy what little balance there is now.
It's just as selfish as Jelly registering those nicknames first.
Let communities be run by people who have been doing it for years.
They have the experience, and in the end there is a server for everyone none the less.

Also what happened to you can change your ISP I doubt you even know what a VPN is or even a remote idea of how the Internet even works.
If I disregard the deficit of cohesion between his statements, and the lack of proper spelling and use of symbols I think I know what he was trying to say, and I lol'd. No hard feelings though Brandan Wink
