I'm guessing your reffering to the Boozarama Bar?

If it weren't for the topic limit, the Trash Talk would've had a 5,000 post topic there. 😉 But what the heck, I like this place better. 🙂

We need to try some Ares via multiplayer sometime, Carno. Have yet to play you...

Every once in a while I reopen the game ares (note: I did not choose this handle based on that game) and play for a few weeks. It is a great game, and I am decent at multi-player, but I can't stand most of the people on gameranger. I am usually a fairly tolerant person, but people do things like flying by at hyperspace speed (or whatever it is called in ares) and shooting at me. It's lame and cowardly. After a few people do stuff like that to me, I end up closing ares for a few weeks to play EV instead.

I found out how to mess with your kills/losses in ares. I was messing around in the prefs for half an hour... That night I had -2348852 kills. 😛

Jimmy Page is the only guy I get nervous with when I play...

As for the guys warping around and firing, that is easy to combat. I've found a few good techniques to destroying ships in flight when that happens.

Goodness, what's your name on GameRanger? I go on there every now and then but not much any more because like no one on there plays Ares They're all obsessed with AvP and all those other shooting games. Maybe, I'll head over there and see if anyone's there....

If you make enough money in EV, it rolls over into the negative numbers.

The main difference between b&b; and the EV board:

The EV board is a specialty board. It is designed solely for the discussion of the game Escape Velocity. banter & brawl is an open forum. It has no centralizing force like the game to keep it in line. Topics in b&b; can be about anything, whereas the same topic here would be either locked, or sent to b&b.; For this reason, as David Arthur said, the definitions of spam between these two boards are very different, out of necessity. For this reason alone, the differences between these two boards are great, not just because of the style of posting we b&bers; are used to, but the type of responses we are used to getting. In fact, the motto of b&b; could be "kick back". The motto here would be "don't kick in the first place". Big difference. Insanity is promoted on b&b.; And it's fun as hell. You have fun here also, but it's a different kind of fun.

You can't compare the two boards. I wish people would stop trying to figure out who's better. There is no better or worse. The word is different. The EV board and b&b; are day and night, and they were made to be that way. So this board feud is pointless.

And yes, I am saying as such in b&b; right now. In fact, I will repeat this post verbatim there. I prefer b&b;, but I won't allow this to descend into a board war just because of what I think about the two places. That should also be in everyone's mind. We're all on the same side, aren't we?

Yes, I agree. They are totally and completly different. I probably shouldn't have said what I did, but it's not something we can call "nice" for forge to go off and post that.
