I'm still playing cantr, so stop dancing for joy!

I've just noticed lately, when I check the forums, I just get more and more upset about the cliques about, so I'm not gonna check the forums anymore.

My ideas get shot down, my threads get split and locked, I just get generally abused. It's a very hostile place here.

So, bye.

I find that the game is more enjoyable for me if I avoid most of the forum conversation.

I blame it on this 'new generation'. And before I get flamed that was meant as a joke.

I find most people on this forum to be nice. I do notice that sometimes the wrong things are said or certain people annoy certain people and they just bicker about it. Like I think I annoy Seko and other newer players for discussing things that happened before they were around. But that is the way that certain things work.

I like it when people tell the old tales...its like getting a history...to better understand why certain places are 'ruled' and 'run' the way they are

But there are some people that don't like that. I can understand why because they feel left out because they weren't involved at these times. So I understand where Seko and the others are coming from but I think they will understand where the older members are coming from when they have played for two years and they are dealing with people who've only played for a couple months.

But I agree with you. That is why I like discussing these things so you're better able to understand the world which makes the experience of playing Cantr in my opinion so much more enjoyable.

I hate to hijack this thread... but I would like to know just how old Cantr is. I've been playing for 18 months now (whether that makes me a relatively old or new player I don't know). But how old is old? The Cantr clock says 1100 and old days... is that a true reflection?

Cantr has had its third 'spawnday' so it's just over 3 years my guess is yes, it is 1132 days old..

Well, as long as he is still playing Cantr. I would find it a worse loss if it was reversed... There are plenty of annoying people left on the forum without you, Agar... :wink:

But seriously, if this is what it takes to maintain the desire for Cantr, so be it. Better than the alternative...

I started playing on day 200. So I've been playing for about 2 and half years now. So does that make me old? That must make Jos ancient. :wink:

Nope. Can't tell you exactly, though. But Cantr has had a lot of downtime, as well as one time quite a while ago, Cantr leaped back in time a few months. Now THAT was annoying.

I suppose I've been playing over two years... not sure how long exactly.

Nah, it makes him pre-historic.
What would nearing one and two/thirds years be? Veteran?
