Design a brand new slug alt mode for the game. It's tactics will be Ram and Avoid. Just working on whether the default colour should be pink or yellow.


...Most of the slugs I've seen are sort of a brownish color, so personally I'd say it should default to yellow.


Interesting! The ones here are all jet black and I didn't think that would show up very wel....


Oh hang on Burn didn't make me an admin? Guess the mighty pink battle slug alt will remain a pipedream for the time being. Keep that dream alive though, it'll never die whilst we keep it tucked away in our hearts.

Yeah, the only problem is that some smart-aleck will win a 'Name Your Weapon' event and promptly demand they be given a weapon named 'A Shaker Of Salt' and that would be it for the slug alts... :(

Psychout - if you would sir, please gather your harem and have them cog swoggle themselves elsewhere; unless they’ve got something pertinent to discuss with me that warrants my attention.

Im going to stop reading right here.
You prepare a long and rousing speech each time you post, which is entertaining enough, but you never actually say anything other than just be adversarial. Why?

As I have said, I don’t have time nor the care to read everything written about me on here; but others, who are friends of mine, do. They see how much I don’t post, but do see how much your lackeys do and they read the inaccurate slag and negativity they speak about me, and by extension, them, I presume. They also tell me how reasonable your posts can be in explaining what actually takes place. Which is why you and I can have a decent conversation, while your lackeys get shown the same respect they show HMW and others.

I will say this though, Turbo is very well liked on this board as he doesn't try to assume a position of respect here, he's earned it. You could too if you trued engaging instead of lecturing.


Lol. I don’t care about being “well-liked” here. I come here to wage the war. The respect I’ve earned was gained through combat, not through conversation. I could go my entire run here without talking to anyone, but apparently you lot would die of boredom.

But just for clarity’s sake: this all started when your friends decided it was a good idea to exploit the game, got called out for it, and decided they weren’t going to drop the issue like I did after their exploit was resolved.

The only thing better than your pompous ass rolling in here to lecture us is when you fall flat on your face doing it.

Nobody has anything to say to you anymore but it sure is lawlzy when you post. Keeps us all rolling for days.
Please do it more often my special little man :x

Call me what you want; it’s obvious that you love this “ass” all up in your mouth. The pictures were just the fluff. My message was clear. Also, don’t talk to me about lectures when every rookie commander in the game has had to read for days about the merits of leveling, how I’m telling them not to, and how that’s making you sad :lol: Get a grip, mascot.

@Burn. I’m not referring to you. I thought that was clear.

They're just having fun Jack. Are they taking jabs at you? Yes. Are they taking jabs at me? Yes. Are they taking jabs at Turbo? Yes. EVERYONE IS HAVING A DIG AT EVERYONE.

Stop taking it personally man, this is how it's been since the game began, it's just having a bit of fun but your responses are so aggressive. There's no need for it. Just join in and have fun man.

@Burn. I’m not referring to you. I thought that was clear.

No, it wasn't. Like I said, I don't know who you are any more, you've become far too serious. But thank you for clarifying.

And for the record, you're not getting your slugs guys, that part of the panel is broken!

Jack, if all you care about is deploying troops into missions, not a sense of community, you may be better served with another game. HMW has been broken to one degree or another for its entire life, the community - cross-faction - is all we have here, really.

Wot, with little holes for their antennae?


...You know, it's probably a good thing that even if the Admin Panel gets fixed one day, there's no way Burn would let me near it. Everyone would wake up on April Fools Day to "Heavy Metal Butterfly Wars" if I had any control over alt mode images...

Wow

Battle Slugs.

Mind=Blown

No wonder experienced players defer to you High Command. :BOWDOWN:

Clearly you are the most important commander to grace this game in nearly a decade.

So sad that the game is not yet ready for your brilliance.

I have questions on how I should be playing and leveling please contact me and tell me at length how it should be done.

When exactly did that ban on fun start Burn?

Way back when I remember there being official April Fool's joke on the site. I have this vague feeling one of them went badly though...

I spent some time looking into it last night. Certainly back in the glory days when Glyph was around there were official AFD pranks (2 years of Scrappy Doo alts ring a bell?).
It seems that somewhere between '08 & '10 AFD died here. (Which may or may not have had something to do with a certain someone proclaiming the death of Peter Cullen resulting in a chorus of butthurt.) :WHISTLE:

Since it can't happen through official channels I've done what I can to live the dream.
Sure "officially" it's classified as some kind of Spaceship but it chooses to self-identify as a slug. That's no more ridiculous than self-identifying as some kind of made up law enforcement agent.

lol That’s awesome, and to be fair, that spaceship does a pretty good job of doubling as a slug.

And other things, now that I look at it. 0.o

And I have told you to stop bringing this up. I can't believe you dredged this up again Jack. I truly truly can't.

Burn, people seem to forget that prior to that incident, there wasn’t one instance where I had an issue with the RDD that was serious. Not one. It was all jokes until that stunt was pulled, and now it’s “Jack hates everyone”. Lol, I don’t. Y’all know it. It just seems there needed to be a reminder of what brought us into this conflict, so that we’re all on the same page and aware that I don’t just bring up unwarranted issues.

Make no mistake: The only baseless conspiracies being tossed around this forum right now are against me.

About these so-called “jokes”. I hardly post. So these tasteless comments being made about me, trying to insinuate that I’m controlling the actions of other players and/or instructing them to do things counter-productive to this game’s progress, should not be taken as a joke. Especially when there’s no proof, right? That isn’t jest, that’s baiting and flaming. And this isn’t complaining about it; it’s shedding light on a situation that’s objectively taking place.

You call me aggressive, and I try not to be. But I’m also not the type to stand by while this “community” bands together to weave a fantastic narrative about my motives and intentions. And by “fantastic”, I mean that it’s rooted in fantasy.

turbomagnus wrote:Jack, if all you care about is deploying troops into missions, not a sense of community, you may be better served with another game.

Stow it. You know you’re wrong. You’ve seen my work in Iacon. You know my priority isn’t only deploying in missions, and that I have worked to develop a sense of community among Bots who want to be effective war fighters. Hell, I’ve donated more energon to Autobots than I even possess. In fact, you’re one of the Autobots who received a transmission from me encouraging you to join back into the fight. So you want tell me again about a sense of community? Just because I’m not playing bumper tag with Decepticons in every single thread on the forum doesn’t mean I’m not part of the community. And just because I’m not vocal about having Decepticon friends, doesn’t mean I don’t have any. These minstrels prancing among us in here know I do; now you know too. And you know what they say about knowing.

Besides, as evidenced by multiple end level players, one doesn’t need to be a part of the posting community to be a part of the playing community.

Also, since it seems more clarification is needed for you turbo. When I said not to feed the wildlife, I meant that there are half a dozen other up-to-date threads to freepost in, but I didn’t want to put it in those terms.

Anyway, the point I want to drive home is this:
I could give two bun buns about what you lot have to say about me, but leave my friends out of it and quit acting like every player in this game who doesn’t adhere to the protocols of the RDD are somehow taking orders from me. It’s asinine and does more to hurt this “community” that y’all are supposedly working to build than anything y’all can accuse me of personally.
