IMPORTANT: TWD Reset, Rule change, Roster limit.

[Twenty Four]

there are the cases of people who play this game simply to socialize with a particular group of people. They very occasionally play, and are usually not that good, but view the game more as a glorified chat client. Again, they will likely have to be removed if you want to remain competitive. More activity cut off.

Jesus, they can still stay on squad chat to talk to their old buddies. The TWD roster is the only thing affected, and like everyone stated many times throughout this entire forum conversation, they only get on a few times a month and that's MAINLY to talk. If they really want to play a game, we have Javduel, wbduel, and base. Oh, and elimbeta. Doubtful this is going to have such a huge affect as everyone describes. TW is the best place to blow shit out of proportion.

Not the best, but its a solution until Diablo3 comes out.

Summa... just no. People who view this as a glorified chat client can use this magical thing called ?chat=[name].... they do not need to be rostered. And for people who log on once a month to look for a game does not help activity of cont. Tons of people in this game want to be captains (to make more squads); however, squads with 50+ rosters hold back people from being able to captain... If a roster limit people are literally forced to join other squads to play and if they don't want to play fuck them who cares. and dont bring up 'ohh noo people are going to quit forever and destroy cont' If that's the case cont is already dead. Apparently you believe having 8 squads of 50 people is better then 15 of 35. Its uh pretty clear...?

[Heisman]

you have en entire bd line up sitting in the same family room get the fuck out of here

LOOOL as i said b4, Portal the only squad that wont be affected due to the amount of people with NOTHING TO DO WITH THEIR LIVES. good stuff vati made me laugh.

[Rucci]

vati be trolling. Everyone that knows twd knows its a good idea for a cap. Rofl its a cap of 35 not 20... get over yourselves people who want to disagree just to disagree or quit no one cares wat you think its going to hapen

[Vatican Assassin]

rucci for staff anyone who disagrees with him is a troll

TWD reset will happen next friday (09/16/11). Also the roster cap will be applied after reset.
62 out of 64 squads already under or at 35 players, big thank you to captains.

[Pressure]

we're getting there..

[Weaver]

If you want to increase activity, work on figuring out a good way to get new players into TWD. Is there any kind of bridge between TWD and the pubs for newer players?

I also wonder how many of these large squads have "casual" members who now will just not play TWD at all because there is no space on the roster for them.

[Zeebu]

pfft weaver

i think its been pretty well established that the current twd ops dont give a fuck about casual members

[Zeebu]

casual members do not belong in twl

twd is supposed to be an all inclusive environment

[kthx]

I find it funny that newer staff members are changing shit that has been turned down by the better staff members who ran this zone while it was actually more popular than 'extreme games'. Seriously, staff was better all around in 2004 when we decided not to do stupid shit like this heh.

[Rasaq]

So you think there SHOULDN'T be a cap AT ALL?

It's annoying seeing squads like Paladen with 90 members and SC and Dependency with 60+ when, I'm sorry for saying this, they don't really have the capability of training newer players. Those newer players sit on those squads, yes, develop friendships, but never truly learn this game. It's a good test for the vets to make squads and be that leader/advice giver to eventually, if this game grows, help them be more competitive.

Roster cap will be fine. Give it a month and if it doesn't work staff can netban me for being so high on this.
