Kinetix said:Seriously Brad, if you read my previous posts on hibernia AC raids you will see that i said that if mids or hibs would take a relic in normal time i wouldnt care less and i wouldnt AC it back. But when mids take a relic at 1:00-1:30 am just pisses me off.
I understand why hibs were pissed off thats why i stoped doing it. But there was several mids that QQ about albs doing it and the some of the mids that were QQ were the ones that took relic at 1am
illu said:So let me get this right -
Mids and Hibs enjoy iRvR in Albland a while, then some Albs start zerging a few Mids and Hibs, Mids raise a small Zerg to counter.
Albs start going to bed? Mids and Hibs bash another Alb Keep or 2 - Mids pinch Alb STR Relic between 9pm->130am
Albs say "This is an AC Raid!" and "We're going to AC it back!"
I haven't been on in a few days - but call me old fashioned but it sounds like this was a late evening raid?
Then I see some Albs moaning about Hibs and Mids working together - well let's think - Albs have a Hib Relic......Albs decided to take every single Hib keep/tower except for maybe 2, do you Albs think Hibs like them? Since the last Alb raid on Hib, the Hib population has nose-dived so I can kind of see why Hibs and Mids are teaming up.
I don't give a flying monkeys arse about relics anyway, Albs have enough nightshift workers to get them back overnight so they are meaningless. All they do is cause arguements.
I suppose they give a reason for people to RvR but I'm just happy for everyone to have their own relics and have a level playing field, and I'd rather have iRvR than the Alb STR Relic for ooooooo 4 hours?
Anyway - take care of my Midland while I am away - going on my Honeymoon so no DAOC for me for 2 weeks. For these 2 weeks life > DAOC But I'll be back! Especially to give that Kagato siege-monkey a good hiding
Oli - Illu
illu said:As predicted, the Albs have their relic back - no surprise there. It leaves a sour taste in the mouth because what work is done by the many during a day/evening can be undone by a small group overnight.
THAT is the fundemental flaw in this game.

brad said:I dunno i ld'd around 9 pm and couldn't log back in, but i guess mids carried on and got the relic eventually and it got pve'd back a couple hours later. O well kinda show that some people can't bare for mid/hib to have any of their relics.
Blow said:I should roll mid and join that guild
Septina said:This fact mostly applies to all three realms tho.
Albs ACs Mids, Mids whine on FH about lame ACers
Mids AC's Albs, Albs whine on FH about lame ACers
Hibs ACs Mids etc etc etc you get the point.
And totally agree, they should remove towers and fix the keeps somehow, these days RRs are either about doing them non primetime or with a 200+ man zerg = not really fun in my opinion atleast. OF relicraids was actually fun to attend.
brad said:Didn't the mid RR raid last since around lunchtime though? How can you call that an AC raid when they been working the entire day and finnaly get it at 1 in the morning. How is that an Ac raid lol?

Kinetix said:yeah at 1am guess that means we can AC it back lol
Sigh...you really havent been reading have you? Mids and Hibs constantly post here that Albs are the strongest realm, and therefor shouldnt ruin the game by taking relics at 05.00 in the morning with 1 fg of CM people. But instead hit either of the other realms during prime time so there are fun rvr for all. 18.00-01.00 or so.pinkey said:Dont see why it should anymore either, mids and hibs constantly post on here that albs are op and there is more of us and its not fair that we take relics and do ac raids, funny how albs get stick for it everytime but its ok for mids to do it?
cmr said:jesus christ at some of the attitudes of people posting here, especially albs, i dont think theres an ounce of common sense between all the albion posters in this thread.
I dont care what realm it is raiding all day and finally getting relic at 1am is not AC not matter how much you want to justify your future alarm clock raids, yes its pushing the boundarys, but i imagine there were still a lot of players still online as there usual is at 1am and if the relic is under threat, people tend not to log. If you did log then thats your own fault. Compaining about being zerged? your playing albion, you have more players than both other realm combined, you dont have a clue about getting zerged.
As for the albion players i suggest you try to look at things from a point of view other thats your own selfish arrogant immature point of view (hi kagato) Playing another realm without logging on albion may help this, may i suggest you try play hib where there is hardly more than 20 hibs RvRing peak time, there maybe 1fg out at most and at a scape 2fg. Hib did well during the day yesterday even with a third of the players albion have, they put up a good fight at Renaris, died fighting and did it respectably. They do this to take a relic you took at 6am with no hibs online whatsoever, but yet when mids take at 1am when there are players online, do you see the whine in this thread at the start from albs saying they will AC back? its an unbelivable attitude, do you see the hibernia players saying that? no because 5 year olds have more sense.
You seriously need to think about the attitude you have and the affect its having on other people, or then again you can just go back to saying L0L|_0|_OZOLZ i t@kez d1 R3|_1C @|\|D Th3Y C|2y ! FUnN@yZ

Blow said:Problem is that you have different thoughts.
I say 'Albs AC' np ,
'Mids AC' np ,
'Hib AC' np
you say 'Albs AC' NO
'Mids AC' its not AC m8 its started the whole day,
'Hibs AC' its not AC m8 its started the whole day.
Look at your buddies online now taking albs keeps do i care or whine?? NO....
You and your little friends would if it was the other way.
MaCaBr3 said:Those mids fucking pwned our asses at the relic temple. Ok there weren't allot of albs maybe 2 fg or a bit more, but when the mids it was like:
/y hey, mids inc NW.
Relig gone
Edit: erm ok, didn't notice albs got the relic back already, but still.
Kinetix said:Sorry Charm but 10 albs isnt a good defence tbh, even if it was 15 wouldnt still be a good defence. Mids charged Relic castle with near 5fgs, dosent matter if it started at 9pm, the actual raid was bettwen 00:30 and 1:30 am on a sunday wich means ppl have to work on monday.

charmangle said:Hmm...where did you see him saying anything like that?
He said: As long as there are a decent amount of defenders logged on (which is usually is at 01.00, especially if there has been a relic raid all day), then by all means go for it. Which Mids did.
Its not a difference of opinions, it is as he says, a common sense thing. The question you have to ask your self is, are you taking a relic for the relic it self, or are you taking it because you want some decent rvr.
A relic raid during prime time hours (18.00-01.00 or so), or atleast with its majority of time spent in that hour span, creates a great amount of action for all 3 realms. The defending realm gets nice action by standing in a keep bolting the attackers to kindom come, the attackers are having fun even if they are getting farmed, and the third realm gets an opportunity to either farm each side, or hit something of their own.
Now taking a relic between 02.00-06.00 will create nothing but bad attitudes and less rvr for all realms. Because there is no one to defend vs the attack, and when the realm has to try and get it back prime time, the defenders will be stronger than them and with the thought in their head that it will be taken back from the undefended realm later the same night, there just isnt any point in even trying to take it back.
Please tell me that you do see the difference between the two?
Its simply a matter of creating rvr or ruining rvr. And Mids choose the first, Albs chose the second (when taking hib relics).
/Charmangle
ps. I promise you that no one will complain if Albs go take a relic from either realm in this manner. (well atleast no one with half a brain! And I can almost guarantee you that there will be lots of praise to those albs from creating a great night of rvr. Along with promises to get it back during prime time ofc, instead of threats of ACing the relics back at first opportunity! ds
