Diamonds are good but?....


1|2|3

AuthorDiamonds are good but?....
"Not" divulge did not heed his/her own advice apparently...

You argue that players are using diamonds to get GH sets, I argue that they are developing their LG level and choosing to purchase it with gold.

Okay corey...whatever you say. Sure, you can grind your LG assumption off, and afford those sets. What happens when you have 60k gold, spend it all on EFK's and then need a great set?? Oh, grind again right? It's all about the righteous plodding donkey grind that gets you the gold medal right? Let's not highlight that some players do not wish to spend days and days enrolling just to spend that hard earned grind on a 10/10 durability set...lets not think about that and instead assume that MOST players do this "constantly" because they don't have to think about saving that hard earned gold for the next tier creature.............right?

You are convinced that players are buying diamonds to pay for their hunt record attempts

I am not 'convicted' of this knowledge. It is a fact. That some do...and some don't. Am I wrong? "Both" happen. What is the argument here? That I think 'most' players do that?

Not true. I think that some do...and some don't. What is the argument here...can I speak rhetorically here? Why do people buy diamonds? TO SET RECORDS AND BEAT OTHERS. The whole point of this game. For you to argue against this with all respect corey I will undoubtedly be very keen too...

@Meshy
Good to see you! Verily, verily I say to you I take your advice without a grain of salt amidst it....I 'know' you and I have had our differences but we hopefully :) have worked most of them through. And I would like to say that 'every' post you make to me I read "thoroughly" and ingest it like bread as I know it comes from truth and wisdom. NOt to be corny but I know you have at least some best interests for me at heart here and only seek to make me better...

Others....hmmmm, hard to say. So even if I don't elaborate on what you say, just know it was elaborated in my cranium already and so gotta go man! These other people are ravenous for my LWM blood! lol!

for Dedrago:
It's easy to list the benefits of all factions except your own.

If you like, I could list down the numerous benefits of being an elf, all of which you seem to overlook.

I've been a demon (primarily DD) for most of my time and it's one of the most versatile yet fragile faction. But you don't see peeps like us proposing what ifs. What ifs are child's play. There's always a flaw with every faction and either deal with your factions' flaw and adapt or change faction to one which in your mind is perfect. It's not rocket science.

I'm a proud owner of DU at my level, and I DO NOT donate (maybe in small amounts but at an insignificant level) and yet I still can afford it somehow, you just need better financial management. If you think diamonds can make you a better player, so be it. It's helping this game too which I so dearly like.


Duh...not to be harsh to you but your first point is mute as a mute with a donkey...and you were harsh to me first so don't get teary-eyed now...

I overlook my benefits??? Wow...just wow...

We have the cheapest luck talents, we have double shot, we have EFKs, high int%, rain of arrows, the list goes on etc, etc, etc....

Have you not read any of my posts or are you just here to spew regurgitated refuse?

I have clearly stated that though we have those benefits, others have benefits too, and at CL 8 they are clearly over-advantageous over the elf faction, even if they become more powerful later on. (@Sir Jedi Knight you are cool man)So if you believe that 3-4 Unicorns added to the Elf roster is bad...so be it. I am not here to ARGUE that. "I" am a proud owner of GRINDING(@Corey) myself and 'do not' donate on a regular basis, but feel the need to and will as I want this game to keep going.

If you think diamonds can make you a better player,

Lol hahaha I laugh at this statemnent as the pure innocence of it is truly lost. LOL I need not say more...

Your own logic is child's play Usbeorn. Remember that you spat upon me first, I did not take offence to you first. If you were not intending that, then you would not have refered to you and your own as your own "peeps", separating yourself from me...then referring to what I was speaking about as "childs play." Sounds pretty convincingly insulting to me doesn't it??


I happen to be a forum moderator and you happen to violate all the possible forum rules you could.

And you think I don't respect you for that??? Just because I seem to be too open-minded to you, and just you? Oh yes..."other" people too...'but'...you don't seem to be acknowledging ANYONE ELSE...who has actually "agreed" with me...

Your just pointing out the dozens that don't. Seems pretty biased to me, and I feel that is exactly what you are doing, as no one else will say what I say.

Isn't it your responsibility to be just and fair? So why point out all my flaws and consider 'none' of my contributing ideas or thoughts?

Why not consider those who agreed with me? Where are they in your thoughts of me? You seem to target me committedly for the simple fact that I am speaking on cords that are sensitive to people...NOT because they are valid or make sense.

Is it really true that DU's afford advantages in hunts and tournaments, fights in general? YES! Is it true that you don't need them to set a record? Plausibly...YES! Is it not so serious at your level? YES! So why get mad at me and say life is unfair, when change can be in the air, as change inevitably happens and who are you(forum moderator or not) to try and stop it?

I have uniquely said, over and over that I respect the admins, and "you" to be in specifics, but if you simply post in my threads to be downgrading to me either one or two things is happening:

A. I am wrong
B. You don't like me

Judging by the fact that some people actually agree with me(no matter how long my posts are, which I can say with the benefit of the doubt, if they really were too long...then a word count should be implemented to the textbox, how is that for creative ideas? That might be good for someone like me lol) I am not wrong. Or "dead" wrong as no one would agree then.

So I guess...you don't like the character you see in the posts...

Well I will inform you that if you actually saw me in real life...you would find the most honest, and one of the most truthful individuals on earth in you own magnanimous person...so please...stop taking offence to me and just speak with me honestly. You are...but in a biased way because nothing you have said to me so far as an admin or moderator has been kindly advice...in fact...one of the FIRST things you said in reference to my posts was:

"Well...I "usually" agree with 'whatever'(@unnamed player)....says...so, here, I close this account thread.

That's it. Thanks, for your appraisal.

I am not done....

you happen to violate all the possible forum rules you could.

I do NOT, and DID not do this intentionally...! I do 'not' go look at the forum rules, and then posthaste try and make some post that has no business doing nowhere.

You are unfairly accusing me of breaking rules, when I was informed of my own violations previously, I was banned momentarily and after given advice as to what actually was my crime I "IMMEDIATELY" sought to remedy them. You come off first in your posts to me with complete utter disregard of respect to me.

What rule have I broken now? I simply asked a question>??? Diamonds afford advantages to people who don't wish to grind daily to get their rocks off in this game???

Now that's against the rules too?!

And you call me ignorant?? Wow, if I called you that you would
You call me ignorant...Wow, if I called you that you would have a 'Battle Control Fit' situation on your hands. Ignorant of some rules that I haven't read all yes, but CONTINUED ignorance of them? Not so! Why are you telling me, threatening me that you can ban me just because I stated injuriously that you and me are not compatible because you slayed a brain child of mine?

Wouldn't you be a little hurt also? No...no...you are to cool for that. I am man..no emotions...arggh. Pirates arggh! matey, lets plunder ye ol shores why don't we! I was hurt by your action, and so I let you know...but I am over it...breeze in the wind....


Let me also give you a fair and last warning about some rules
3. Your topic should concern general game issues only. Attempting to advance one’s personal interests by masking them as general issues is subject to a long-lasting forum ban.


I am not attempting to "advance personal interests" like money laundering or whatsoever. I simply have asked people if they think DU afford advantages to people.

THEY DO! Why am I being given this stated rule?

8. Personal attacks or squabbling is strictly forbidden in this or other forum sections. If you have a bone to pick with someone, do so – espectfully – via private messages.

I am not "squabbling" with anyone, THEY are squabbling with me.
I voice my opinion. They insult me subtely...then I tell them why they are wrong. So they can tell "me" I am wrong, AND insult me on top of that, but I cannot say anything back?

Because I DO NOT 'start' attacks on anyone here who does not attack me like a kitty kat first. They hide their words and try to claw me with ostracism and barely veiled contempt. If you want me to be more fake in how I respond then I guess this world is full of lies. I don't need to curse to get my point across, so yes I will defeat them logically from now on. Especially if you are not prepared. Thank you for showing me that rule...I will adhere to it

@Krabylos
please, with all due respect: instead of whining and suggesting to buff your unit recruitment count (the topic is forbidden anyway), people should get the idea of how to get better at this game.

Here. I shall be very fake for you, and not squabble:

Please, do not comment on my posts by telling me I am whining, or erringly telling me I am suggesting to buff(reinforce) faction units. Which is forbidden in game rules. I trust you will look them up now and see what they say. To be very clear with you Krabylos we were discussing DU's and how they affect the game. Thank you. A short paragraph is 3-4 sentences. And you should be more to the point when you are suggesting that someone else be more to the point. You gave me many words right there and I take your advice gladly. The point is you do not have the authority to tell someone to be short, or "concise." Thank you for your opinion. It has been justly noted.

@Windrider
I do not wish to reply to you because I can sense your feeling behind the words and in short it is very, very dark. It does not give me a good feeling so I will reply to you by saying this:

Your thoughts are noted, they are muted, and they are magnified. You have no business doing here if you are only insulting someone. It's just like...I would take your advice better if you weren't so...idk....the way you just posted.

How hard is that to realize? I would give you a longer response, but I just don't feel like your words need that justification, as this is response to you I assure you is 'short.' In short, Windrider...thanks, but no thanks.


I guess this post was rhetorical. Silly me. Of course diamonds make you better, not more skilled but 'better.'

I guess I was looking for like-minded people. It seems only the bravest ones agree with me. All the others(Mr. Battle Control excluded) seem to just...well...they seem ingenuine. Not really...substantial. I see through them through their words.
Truth is light, and Truth is dark. A contradiction though paradox forms these words and worlds. Thank you everyone for your time.
Diamonds are good, and they don't take the skills out of hunts. Many donators don't have hunt records. Also, many people who do, don't donate.

Hunter/mh/gh and even bb sets are cheap, comparing with other arts. It is much easier as a non donator to get a whole gh set than a sword of cold or ring of cold.
Mr. Battle I give you the respect you deserve. Administrator, keeper of the peace. It is true...

You killed my brain child, which, with your authority you have the right too...

That was a blow to me...but I have moved on.

I do not wish war with you, Though I am not afraid, nor beaten down into submission.

I give you respect. There, there it is, believe me that it is true we don't have to be friends but I hope you can look past all this...

Good luck out there MCB....and everyone else.

@Sworks
Right, right...I see what your saying, yes I looked like maybe 2 weeks ago up on the cold rings. Wow that's expensive...
From what I observer, you can't be helped.
You are just a attention-seeker, insulting each and everyone ( not talking about myself ) who tried to make sense out of you, contradicting them in most senseless way possible.

Anyways its my last post here, sure do insult me and others again after my post. I dont care, i won't be reading it now.. i have wasted enough time already reading all your long posts.
Player banned by moderator MrBattleControl until 2017-01-28 05:59:03 // LR.8/F.R 2.2/ Stop with the personal attacks please.
Thank you for your thoughts...

As you can see everyone, Windrider doesn't actually read my posts. He just insults me every chance he gets.

I 'specifically' stated that I take the advice from people in my posts, whether they insulted me or not, but Windrider says I don't even though I clearly have.

Guild Development
Faction Development
NO MORE UNICORNS are needed lol. I understand and I am done with that.

He obviously has ignored ALL of those posts though.

He just chooses to see what he wants to see.

Which is why I told him that I don't like the feeling I get from his posts. There is something definitely dark about them...their nature is always of ill.

Whatever, I am no judge of character, and I really will be glad to see him go for he never said anything nice to me anyway.

I assure you he didn't read what I said.

Im not sure anyone has ROFL!!!!

@Tri-Force

Cool....

Thanks for that. Thanks because you think that I just wish to insult you. Because I don't and to make that clear I will not say anything to what you said. I won't call you anything except Tri-Force...

Good tidings to you also,
DISCLAIMER 1: I have not read fully any of the posts, just glanced through very quickly. :)

DISCLAIMER 2: My post is not directed at any one in particular. Just a general observation of this topic. )


** Tips for the Day **

[1] Almost all online game with huge number of players have an element of donation built in.

Donations = gives players an edge in one form or other.

That's the way it is. Will never change.


[2] In my humblest of opinion, this game do NOT favor donators as much as most other online games, where it's literally impossible to beat guys who donate tons of real money.

In this game, skills, knowledge of the game [and luck] play a far greater part in determining the outcome of most battles.


[3] I have been through the woes [and joys] of many of the comments here. I have learned that it's [usually] pointless to spend too much time on the 'injustice' of a [any] game. Instead of focusing on the 'problems', spend more time building a stronger character to compete [may not be equally but goes some way] equally with heavy donators.


..which brings me to the next point.


[4] Diamonds basically equates to gold in this game. I didn't donate till I was level 15..

.. but I was a millionaire by the time I was level 11, just 5 months after I joined the game [!]

What most donators can buy in this game, so could I [if I wanted to]. :)

So no, diamonds don't affect the outcome in most battles, if played [one's character] in the right way. :)


[5] One thing I have learned over the years [yes, I posted/created a gazillion messages in the forums too] --> Don't spend too much time on anything that don't make your character stronger.

Roulette [especially!], building Smiths/Enchanters guilds, quick tourneys, contest sites, posting in forums etc etc, all don't directly make one's character stronger.

Spending too much time on these = don't expect to have a strong character to compete with the top players.

Leveling up in every guild [except SG/EG] DO make your character stronger. You get bonus stats for your character - https://www.lordswm.com/help.php?section=10

So spend more time on stuff that makes your character stronger. :)


[6] Lastly, there are so many elements to this game, that even at the highest level, you will find that you are still learning new things in the game, including tactics and strategies etc.

So spend more times doing ALL types of battles, to fully understand and appreciate the complexities [and beauty] of this game. :)


If one have not tried every types of battles [including thieving, adventure guild, Survival tourneys, defense battles, contest grounds, Commanders' guild/group battles, Adventurers' guild, etc], one have not fully played enough of the game to fully understand/comment on/appreciate the intricacies of the game. :)


Belated Happy New Year, everyone.

And a Happy Lunar New Year to all the Chinese out there.

Don't forget to enjoy and have fun ! :)
This is getting extremely off topic.
You have the talent to be extremely offensive in a polite way.

I never ever insulted you,i did disagree with you.If you can't handle that then there is really nothing i can do for you.

I am a moderator not an administrator if you think i wasn't impartial and i missused my ban powers then please contact the Secretary
