Yes, winning every contest for the last year is getting tedious. Competition good.

Sorry for trying to encourage the competition.

I don't know. They have very odd voting behaviors anyway. They'll get no votes for a couple days and then suddenly shoot up by a couple hundred votes.

What's with the hostility?

It seemed cool to me to see logos cheering on another competitor. Or did I misread something?

I was mentioning that it wasn't a commercial mud. Where's the hostility in that? I think there is more hostility in Matts words then mine.

We are all entitled to our opinions, I suppose.

Well now, THAT is a VERY debatable point...

Vryce makes a living off his mud and claims it is not Diku based in
order to justify doing so. I am simply opening donations up for a few
days to pay for an upgrade the server needs. Yes there is a reward given,
but there is nothing given that cannot be gotten through just plain
working for it either - the only advantage donators have over non-donators
is a time saving. Also, what I am giving as a reward is nothing that
is part of stock Diku or ROM - trivia points/quest points. Don't get
me wrong, trying to justify it on those grounds would be very silly,
my point is that this is a very fine line. I am not trying to make
money off the mud, if I were I would keep donations open all the time,
I am opening it for a few days to buy some hardware the mud needs to
continue to thrive, if that's so bad and it gets me labelled as a
licence breaker, oh well.

What does that prove? That you are a horrible immortal at Aard? Commercial is something to MAKE money from. Not make money for a few days, buy hardware to improve your already free game with then stop making money... Please.

Yes, good luck! I'm sure it will be a "valiant" struggle until Achaea mysteriously gains 1,000 votes from nowhere.. but at least it will look like a competition for awhile!

All the bitter types pop out of the woodwork.

If you have an accusation to make, make it and be prepared to back it up. Otherwise, grow up.

I can't back it up, because I don't have access to the topmudsites server logs. But I'd imagine it's pretty obvious to some people. You know exactly what I am talking about.

False modesty = annoying after awhile.

No, you can't back it up because you're full of ****, plain and simple.

Ok, people, this is getting a bit out of hand, now. Try to keep it civil. If you want to just insult people, take it private or head to the flames thread. Thanks much.
