Default Crossroads - 06-29-2003, 04:30 PM

I have seen all the threads that have been made. I have read all the comments that have been posted in those threads. I have watched as AlliedAssault.com has become a site that is now at the bottom of the barrel.

I remember when this site just got up and running. People were sending in all of their mods, in hopes of getting a highlighted spot on the main page. I know this because I am one of those people. Mods were updated bi-daily, and the forums were full of interesting information and important questions. But, as has been said before. All good things must come to an end.

The simple fact is. Everyone is tired of supporting a game with no official support. While I can understand this, you shouldn't just get up and walk away from this site. But, alot of the skilled members of this community have. I can understand where they are coming from, with all of the repetitive questions and the pointless flaming. Who would want to visit a place like this?

I personally, am sentimental. MOH might have no support, but I have stayed with it because it is one of the best first person shooters of all time. This site is something that I am sentimental about as well. I learned alot of stuff here, and I enjoyed sharing my creations with others. Some of this might sound cheesy, but hey, at least you know how I feel.

Well, to end this thread, I'll state this.

Instead of flaming and locking. Instead of bashing and accusing. Try being compassionate and understanding to those who really don't know what is going on or do not know how to do something. Remember the early days of AlliedAssault.com. Remember all those questions we asked. Remember how stupid we looked back then, and how those same kinds of people are posting here now. Show them the support that you would like to have gotten back in the early days. Maybe this site can turn around. Maybe not. But we all need to be understanding of each other and help each other out. We are all here for a reason. We are here because we enjoy this great game and we enjoy sharing our experiences with others who the play the game alongside us.

Thanks for taking the time to read through this thread. I appreciate it. Maybe you will think differently about things now. I know I have.

Things that can help turn this site around:

1. BadScript to get more involved. We've been trying to get him to fix the database up but he simply doesn't care enough anymore.

2. Harsher punishment for spam, flaming, racism and general breech of rules.

3. Reset the DB and start over. Delete the members, threads and everything else.

4. More cooperation and respect towards those with authority.

5. More support from EA (never gonna happen).

6. A new hosting service.

Overall, I think this site does have a second chance. All we need is Badscript to become more involved.

MOHAA is still going strong.

Like all these boring management meetings we have progressed.

Mods are really cool some of the skins and weapons that have been produced would lead EA to hang their heads in shame.

The total absence of a the pack to properly mod the whole game (SKR) or what ever it was called arrived too late and by that time all the really skilled modders had moved on (probably to battelfiled, anyone seen DC for BF1942).

I'm sure had the had the tools to properly mod this game then spearhead would not have been launched and in it's place we would have seen a much better (shareware) version of mohaa.

At the moment I play in 2 leagues. Due to total lack of EA anti-cheat tools we are very reluctant to use modded files in the league games, because as soon as we say a blood patch is allowed for use it will appear on the cheat sites with every cheat file inside it.

This is sad but true.

MOHAA leagues are going strong in Europe pity this site has went downhill but there is nothing new to say.

I'm still learning new tricks even after 1 year and enjoy hitting the servers for some fun and tournaments.

Cya around

JAS AKA Kaiser [K1]
...'til the end!!!

4. More cooperation and respect towards those with authority.

respect is not something you automaticly get just because you become a mod. respect is EARNED OVER TIME. in order to get respect you must first give respect to others. there are 2 mods here i have respect for. rude dog and joe. i used to have respect for the zoner untill he fell into the bad language thing every time he gives a warning or corrects someone. its not nessasary. a simple waring...then the boot would work just as well.

MIKE...i couldnt agree more with what you say. i think part of the problem here is theres a lot of members here who dont even play the game. or have stopped a long time ago. they use this place to reak havic and cause trouble. this may sond extreme but if it were up to me. (AND I KNOW ITS NOT!!!) so no one will have to tell me that. anyway if it were up to me id do away with the off topic intirely. its just a breading ground for trouble makers.

make this strictly a forum for moh and spearhead related threads. anything else would be deleted. soon the jackasses would find a new place to cause trouble and leave this a place for the people who still love this game and are still interested in making it a better game. where questions get answers and problems discussed and figured out for the player having the problem.

think how easy it would be to moderate this site then. the mods would then get the respect they deserve. cinture to build on the download part. more tutorials on different aspects of the game. anyway..theres my rant on this subject..itll never happen..but in my opinion thats the fix for the future of this forum.

STFU Innoxx you fucking Jew commie bastard. You like to suck dick and are bad at modding. oOo: cry: biggrin: fire1: angel: hake: ed: evil: zooka: bigzooka: mwah:

lol, jk Innoxx. I just had to do it.

But Badscript is never gonna come back. And EA is never gonna give support to us. Thats why I quit a lonnnnnng time ago, because i knew it was hopeless that EA would come save the day by releasing a patch that adds new fun maps, fixs lag and FPSD problems, and fixes every bug known to man without coming out with new ones. But not one of those things will come true, unless ofc ourse you give them mo monah

The admins and mods are currently talking about how we can clean this place up a bit. Ideally, the board needs a full barium enema (i.e. a database purge, php upgrade, and hardware upgrades), but until that time, we're going to try our best to bring the forum back up to a reasonable standard of decorum and decency.

I remember when I used to not even visit the forums. I would just come here for the downloads. then one day I was like wtf ill try them out. And the forums were actually nice. no one spammed, no one flamed(too much). And all the mods were here. BW, Spooge, Joe, and rudedog. They all posted regurlarly. This place nees to be cleaned and maybe it will attract some good attention.
I for one am not surprised that EA doesnt give much support, and that Badscript doesnt care. The content on this forum is almost always useless, some coming strait from a dumpster. It used to be a nice place, what happened?

I remember i was posting here just anxious for a whisper of MAC Mohaa, then it came, and then 3-4 monthss later it was HACKER, N00b, 1337, h4x0r and all of that bullshit. I say that the chat option in mohaa should go away. Just use RW or netfone or something if u wanna talk with teammates/friends. enough of that flaming BS. im tired of it. Just today i was playin, and this one kid was blabbering hacker here and hacker there. Made me want to smite the poor bastard. EA Needs to get more involved or this game will go down. But like all good things must come to an end. Im afriad if we dont clean up well lose this and a whole shitload of our lives to this god damned game. I say hear hear and lets get to it! angel:
Theres my 2 cents cheerio, mates biggrin:

-Happy Killings- mwah:
