I CREATED AAN!

Yes, that's right. Me. All me. Without me, AAN wouldn't exist, or at least wouldn't exist in its current form. Yea, yea, I know - but here goes -

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back when, when mappers frequented these boards, and everyone was having a grand old time - I call it PBJ (not Peanut Butter and Jelly you fucking moron. . hake: ), Pre-Bazooka_Joe, I had the smart idea to create a server where all of us could just have fun, screw around and all - RD and I tossed the idea back and forth and he eventually took the ball and started the server. It was there that such Aa.COM luminaries as Winters, Judas, ChickenBoo, Ghostrider, etc got introduced to each other and from there god knows how many clans were spawned. Including the boys of POACC, LLC, and - ahem OTD.

AAN's server popped up while AA.COM was nearing its end, and bam - there you go. A fullblown community.

The rest as they say is history. A sad, horrible horrible history.

Where does this hatred for AAN come from?

Yes, but it'll have to be a firing squad like tactic as I'm sure there will be many who want that honor.

See any post by Higher Power, Holly, Jasper, etc. And it's not hatred, just frustration at what my creation has become.

Lol, a bit convoluted but a fairly sound theory with merit.

Hey, ED, you practically created my last map. You bitch.

I don't even know who Higher Power is.

So it's not hatred. Ok... then why the frustration?

Your last map would make a better Objective Map than straight team battle.

And your first one worked both ways, although it sucked with OTD, and LLC's Camp Squad. Cest La Vie.

There is an objective version of it.

Id run that map on gg if this fucking game actually allowed downloads from the server. If i put it in all that would happen is id be running about on it by myself. oOo:

Yea that is the BIGGEST problem with this game - most of the user maps created eclipse stock, but noone goes out to get them.

Here here. Mind you there are some well established custom servers out there that are rarely empty - it's about getting the publicity and making sure you host maps that are easy to find.

It's just as annoying to have an empty server because no one DLs the maps you run as it is to be kicked from a server that runs some obscure map that you can't find anywhere.

So that's it? That seems to be a lot of "frustration" for just some posts.

I'm not trying to start shit here. I'm just curious.

Sorry, Bane, I can't really help you here - I missed whatever it is that has happened to create the angst between people here and at AAN.
