yes, swath IMO sucks. twx is FREE and there are many FREE scripts for it.
as to asking before invading.
so lets say i find your stuff and you are offline, i wait all day to ask you if i can invade, i decide to goto sleep and when i wake up, i find that you had invaded all of my stuff. now if i had just taken you out when i had the chance, my stuff would not only be safe, but i'd have your stuff to add to it too.

in real life, if you percieve a threat, eliminate the threat before it has a chance to theaten you. if you let it linger, you get things like sept 11th. thats as clear as i can make it.

slim, with all the games I see you on, I cannot believe you do not know about the sendmail feature in the game. also, if you are so poorly defended in your sector that he could take you, what makes you think you have enough resources to to capture them?

hmmmm, so you become a threat to everyone before you can confirm they are a threat to you? sounds like you got 9-11 backwards and you think everyone should act like terrorists.

Cripes I'd hate to see what happens after you get 3 corps cheezed off and they join forces to wipe you out. you se a solution? I don't.

"slim, with all the games I see you on, I cannot believe you do not know about the sendmail feature in the game."

HAHAHAHA, who reads their ingame mail?

"also, if you are so poorly defended in your sector that he could take you, what makes you think you have enough resources to to capture them?"

cause i am smarter than them and you dont know all there is about sector invasion as long as i prevent you from using your resources, i dont HAVE to take your resources.

"hmmmm, so you become a threat to everyone before you can confirm they are a threat to you? sounds like you got 9-11 backwards and you think everyone should act like terrorists."

heh, we ARMED osama bin laden and then later (in the 80's) we KNEW he was a threat. he was behind the FIRST bombing of the WTC. but, we let him be. we had MANY chances to take his life. we never took it. he has made us pay for that decision.

"Cripes I'd hate to see what happens after you get 3 corps cheezed off and they join forces to wipe you out. you se a solution? I don't."

yes, kill them. whipe them out, destroy them. or get some corpies

hmmmmm, maybe if we started sending declarations of war or peace treaties some might start reading them. at least it gives you full justification to attack then if they do not reply.

oh joy, you'd rather kill off a single player with his L2 than not let him cover your back?

I am glad you are so good at the game that you can wipe out every L2 planet that shows up because you are so paranoid that they are there to get you, without eve bother to think that they might be a potential ally.

sorry, but I am not well versed enough nor do I wish to waste the time explaining that we are both agreeing on the same thing, but you miss the point that I am talking about you.

geez, you kill any dogs that look at you because you are afraid they might bite you? you do realize that this kind of thinking in the real world is wrong don't you?

makes me wonder what society did to make you hink like this....

"hmmmmm, maybe if we started sending declarations of war or peace treaties some might start reading them. at least it gives you full justification to attack then if they do not reply."

na, cause if you get a couple thousand messages, are you really gonna sift through them all everytime just incase someone is asking for peace?

"I am glad you are so good at the game that you can wipe out every L2 planet that shows up because you are so paranoid that they are there to get you, without eve bother to think that they might be a potential ally."

heh, i often recruit newbs to be my eyes. often i have them be my informants and i pay them well. i never said i kill newbs on site i was just pointing out that its safer to kill than wait and get killed yourself

"geez, you kill any dogs that look at you because you are afraid they might bite you? you do realize that this kind of thinking in the real world is wrong don't you?

see, the thing is, i dont have fear. so even if i kill every dog that i "fear" might bite me, i'm not killing any dogs.
the only thing to fear, is fear itself.

Personally, if I spend 2 weeks searching for an enemy location and finally find their level 4+ planets, I surely don't want to send them a message that "I'm going to invade you" and then give them time to move all of their stuff somewhere else.

tater, appearantly you are playing unlims. that is problem #1, unlims are short and aggressive. heh, and yes, being solo doesn't mean you aren't a threat. as Demon said, people like Angus are always a threat, heh. i've played with and against him in many games and the #1 thing i learned from him, is kill or be killed. (then gloat about it on ICQ, hehe) i think maybe you would like a turn game as it is less aggressive. or if you are determined to play in unlims, ICQ me, i'm sure ive got time for an unlim

Slim


Not all unlimited are hostle. If I wasnt so big as were Im at at my unlimited game i wouldnt of been able to chase of the war mongers. Im not about to let someone come into my game and destory it just for the kick of it.

so what you are saying is that you were the big dog and you chased off the competition?


Slim

The game youre playing on the "Tea" Server.I was in there till I saw the ship delay was on.If I was allowed to ssm as long as I did with no delay on I would have been able to get you.You do have to sort of realize,you have to keep up a game you are in.If I could get in and cause trouble alone,Just think what a corp would do,or one of the good players.
In short, sometimes you have to play the big fish to keep what you have in a game.

WildStar I have 10 H's with Q-connans sitting on my home sector full fuel. and 1mil fighters offensive. with 250 Mine's tell me can a fulling loaded dread star fight this off?

heh, butterfly, its an unlim, it doesnt matter what you have.
any decent player could come in there and destroy you. if there werent lame settings (delay, etc..) i'd come show you, but i choose not to waste time on games with bad settings or horrible edits.
im not saying this to sound ***y, im not saying this to say im good, and im not saying this to say that you suck, i am saying it because it is fact. the only reason you are "winning" the game is because no half way decent players can stand playing in unlim games with horrid delays. unlims are meant to be fast, not slow.

Slim

delays are in my opion reality big ships can just move like lighting speed. and you can? well. I dont know if you get your ship destoryed befor that. Im not the only one that plays there. and rob delays? like a computer can move in a spilt second and eletriconicly transfer a fund. all i hear is a bunce of whiners or so called bad Butt. Tater just started a topic not a flame war.

laff

laff? rendered speechless?

Hehe this is tradwars it’s known for flames!
http://www.twgs.org
To be honest I have not really seen anything that would be a real flame in this thread yet.
Anyways ship delay sucks in turn games and ulims IMHO. I spend enough time in game I don’t want to wait another 10 sec. to move one sector and that’s just one reason why it sucks.
In my travels from server to server I have met all kinds of players some like aliens some like to just build some like to kill and others like to ppt all the time its kinda like the way peeps are in real life.

My .02
To each his own have fun playing TW!

Oh yea, if you see me in a game don't expect me to ask you if its ok if I take your stuff or pod you before I do it that’s just the way I like to play the game and that’s the fun part doing it without your permission at least for me it is. =)
