(And this isn't a flame war :I?)


As a cool guy from this community, I expected better grammar from you Meepie. I'm disappointed in you now D:

Donor Kits where fairly balanced, except Armored Troll. That class was nerfed, though, and counters such as Longbeard and Commander where made to stop it. Also, there was strength boost, which would allow regular swordsmen to 5 hit a troll.

Armored troll 3-4 hit swordsman, and got 8 hit. Armored trolls where also HEAVILY TEAMED AND TARGETED, which meant that every Gondorian or Dwarf would target them.

Most of our players didn't know us 1 or even 2 years ago, so they never new of the old system. This system I like, it is quite balanced, though some others disapprove.

We have at least 30 players less on average on, mainly because of these reasons. You can argue the reasons why, though the numbers prove more people enjoyed Empire War 1 or 2 years ago then they did today. That was the Golden Age.[/quote]

Lol, a few armoured trolls didn't get teamed. Everyone just walked away except a few people who thought it might be an idea to kill those guys (And walked straight in their rocks).

Some people always disapprove. Even when it's good, people need to complain.

Anyways, I think it would be an idea to quickly launch new maps behind each other, to create variation and make it more intresting.
 
30 people less on the American timezone I believe. I see above 70 people online a lot of times. Also, you're ignorant to the truth or simply oblivious, old donor kits balanced?? HA! Create more op classes to counter other op classes and leave normal classes in the shadow is stupid to get class differences balanced. But I must say, op classes did contribute a fun challenge.

Exactly, op classes fighting op classes makes the non op kits like spectators watching a huge battle... kinda fun xD
 
You mean armored troll 2 hit soldier with crits. Not funny.
It's a good thing that we followed the EULA. It was always there, so basically back then EmpireWar was sinning daily.
Stop bringing up unites, it's never happening, Tim the owner doesn't even want them
 
a lot of todays veterans are the ones that are elites or pre-mod however our newer players don't tend to get along with our older players me python arak ect in the sense of they're always complaining of unfairness where the vets are like did you see armored troll???? and I do miss the sense of challenge I remember always trying to kill donors even thought I was just a soldier
 
The donor classes weren't all "op", some of them sucked (reaver), while others were just plain insanity (Armoured Olog-Hai). Not to mention, most donor classes had a counter, for donors or for non-donors. Still, some of the classes were just plain unfair.

Or do our older players don't get along with the newer players? Perspective :3

Yah, I get along with Storm, Brom, and some others very well even though they are relatively new. Its all in perspective
 
I think we should all be glad with the removal of Donor classes, as cool_col stated: Some of them were plain and simply unfair.
Though I must say I still feel sad for those who donated for things such as those classes, as we had to take those away. Right now we're constantly thinking of ways to give donators more rewards, but with such a limited amount of possibilities to work with that is becoming increasingly more difficult.
 
I remeber the birth of the server, when helm's deep was soooo small, and when minas tirith was made of stone slabs and when isengard had trees, those were the good old days of the birth of the server. Second best age, golden age is number one, but then came eula, those weird dutch noobs, when iwas_number4 and Lord_Sauron were demoted and left, before point classes, before daily present, before so many things...
 
I remember the first time i played on Minas Tirith, and I was just an orc, and KordianTheGreat was on the ground massacring everybody, and I couldn't understand anything, and...
Good times!
 
The Birth of EW: That era was when there was mini-helms, isengard with trees, and stone slab minas tirith. There hardly any classes besides swordsman, mage, archer, I don't remember if there was troll. It was also a very small tight knit community. (this is my second favorite era, it gives me nostalgia ;-) )

The Golden Age:That era was the best. There were donor classes, but I dont think there were voting classes or not. Eula didnt exist. Donors were really respected. There were still veterans. Iwasnumber4, Lord_Sauron, and other staff were very active. Though the donor classes were unfair or way too weak, it was nice. There was only one moria, minas tirith, minas morgul, isengard, and helms I believe were the only maps.There was the survival event. And the very long, big, famous Akam and Lazee Flame Wars. (Btw this is my favorite era :) )

The Era of Transition: This was the age were some weird things had happened, a map or two were added. Eula got rid of our donor classes, point classes were added. Those weird dutch noobs that came out of no where came to the server. We began to loose like 1 or 2 vetrans, but not that much. Some donor things were being tweeked. I think daily present was added during this era. And the age of the donor was ending. Being a donor during this era wasnt as big or as important as being a donor during the golden age, because they lost many things, most notably, their op (well some were op, others were not) donor classes. Along with that, we all remember the horrible, weird, dysfunctional map known as pellenor. (Btw this was my least favorite era)

The Era of Lose and Gain:This is the era where we lost many good people, staff and donors especially. We were having staff demoted, veterans from the golden age and the birth of EW were leaving because they were getting tired of the server and went to do other things like cool_col. Many staff left because they were inactive, most notably Only_God. But this is an age of gain aswell because we got a lot of maps like erebor, black gate, erdoras, and osogiliath. This era ended recently. (Btw this was my second least favorite era. If it werent for the new maps, it wouldve been the worst age)

The Era of Reform: This era has just begun. I call this the era of reform, because to me it seems that there have been a lot of suggestions made by the community recently more than any other era. From spawn reforms to stop spawn camping and killing, to class reforms like how hammerer is too weak and how archer is too op, to new class suggestions, new map suggestions, and new donor perk suggestions (Pythonawe ;-)). (Btw Im starting to like this era a lot :LOL: )
 
I remember when EULA forced Tim to add point classes, and gave a good opportunity for me to become successful.
I remember when I started playing more often because it was actually fair for a change.
I remember when the server got filled with new players like never before, giving a opportunity to meet new, great people.
I remember when the server was full several times a week.
Wait, aren't all these great things happening now? :P

Well said. though I could have explained the Golden age really well, since many things happened.

-Akam and Lazee Flame Wars

-Survival Event

-Promethous demoted in the very beginning.

-Very fun, many vets still played. I could give you a whole list.

Anrza and Weby banned at the very end, ending the Golden Age along with the EULA as well.
