I think we can all agree on this

Here is some info about the Lazee-Akam Flamewar of the Summer of 2014.

tensions between veterans began to arise when LazeeKat reported Akam for cursing at him, which caused most vets to take sides. Many stayed netural, though most choose to agree or disagree. Lord_Sauron was a bit more active then, so he gave Akam a 1 month ban for calling Lazee a "f*g" and gave him a warning for saying "f**k off you little homophobic b*tch"

Then, after that, Akam_1972 was created. Lazee began to hate me and my brother KingWeasels, so I joined Akam's side. Lazee called him many childish names, which ended up in the Punishments of 4. Lazee was banned, Akam was banned, my brother got temp banned, and I was barely pardoned. Lucky me.

This war caused Lazee, Weby, and Anrza to bond and help them to become what they are today.

In the end, it is believed that Flame War 1 caused Flame War 2, and Flame War 2 caused the Cold War which is what we are playing today in.
 
You guys really need to stop living in the past. Thinking about good times won't magically make them appear.
 
Stop talking about "ages" there is one age. Squidsrule please stop with the veteran talk. Noone is a veteran. There are experienced players and new players. We need to help the new players become more experienced. The server isn't just the 3 "veterans" you can remember, so stop talking like the server is loosing all of it's players. You are new to the forums Idk about the server. But since you state you have been playing over 2 years I'll trust that. But as I've said before a rank and a player saying he's the pillar of the community doesn't mean he is it. And if you've been playing for 2 years you should know there are more than 3 experienced players active.
 
At the middle back of the Golden Age, you forgot to add the Era of Storm.

The Era of Storm

Stormray73 joined the server as a giant noob, and hasnt really changed that much. Amusing some, irritating most, and generally just hanging out. This age is defined by a distinct lack of pvp skills, and many VERY bad LOTR puns/quotes. This age is still going on.

I dont see how talking about older times is offense, and calling people veterans means they have been around for a long time and are usually respected. There is around 10+ vets on, though most aren't really that active. "In with the new, out with the old :P"

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. Lazee-Akam wars pretty came down to two persons who both verbally abused too much.
ii. Stop using the term "Dutch noobs'''. Not only because I'm Dutch myself and thus feel offended, but simply because it's racist and a form of negatively generalisering. (Even if I wouldn't be Dutch I would ask you guys to stop it >.>)
iii. There are actually less suggestions in ''The Era of Reform'' than in the others. Yes, I'm seriously, you could better use the reason ''A lot of staff got demoted and added'' than suggestions :P
 
well i was re reading all the posts and I noticed I was called not a vet i think being on when things like the golden age begins makes me a bit of a vet....
 
Never forget Mini Helms deep. It was always funny when the back of the fortress was captured and only the front flag was left. Good times.
 
Well, Cookie, the Akam-Lazee wars where worse then you think. Two major people with massive egos clashed against each other in a battle of cursing and disgusting language. There was side-fights, like how I joined Akam's side when Lazee called my brother names and so did KingJoseph. In the end, Lazee and Akam were banned, and soon after Anrza and Weby. Then, Antzorg and KingJoseph, and then Titan and Ice. (He is unbanned though.)

It is believed Akam and Lazee getting banned sparked all of this, exactly how WW1 caused WW2 which caused the Cold War which caused the wars in Iran today. It was a lot more then two selfish ego-thriving people cursing at each other, it was the removal of all these players ^^
 
i made a list of all the donators i met during the golden age, and there were like a bajillion
 
Titan didn't get banned for Akam-Lazee flame war, he got banned for using RP-section to advertise :/
