@JakeTheRude

honetly how much did it take you to write that novel...i still can't believe i managed reading it all :p

Hehe, I don't know - 10-15 min. or something like that - I have been sitting in front of my computer the entire day working on my master thesis, so I'm kinda blasted in my head atm., so I just kept on writing like a zombie repeating each move over and over (but I do think it made sense and will be understood as intended) ;)

what a shame at 12:39:59 on 15/03:
Bruinsma used to be a honorable family,they never joined any pacts(fact they officially took pride in) and they always died for their bloods,the same bloods they kept on having every version(like tempest),they were never big because they didn't cheat their way... now,starting last version they started doing the exacte opposite of those things...they joined a pact (just not to say they ass-lick conflict),now they're on the pillory list with several accounts(so no "coincidence")...

well if this is the price to pay to be "strogn"...you should be ashamed of yoursleves, you lost something which was way more valuable,respect,which you had for such a long time


ok spam on!

We are still an honorable family, if you ask me - and if you ask Tempest, then they are still blooded with us, so I guess they believe that too. We do still not join any pacts, and we do still not blood the entire game just to feel safe - try to look at our fam.page; we have 5 bloods as usual (not all the same, since some aren't around anymore) and not the 9-10-11-12 many other families have had (simply, because we think it destroys the game if everybody bloods too many). We blooded Conflict, yes, but we have shot with them several times, and it seemed to be an obvious choice + we had fun with some of them, when they were in other families, and we already talked about this last version.
We lick noones ass, and have payed the prices for that several times - it's better to die on your feet than to live on your knees!

Regarding the size of our family, then it's nothing new. If you try to look through the versions and back to 2.1, then you will see, that we have quite a steady cyclus regarding members. Back in the days, we were quite strong, then we lost some members who wanted to try to create something on their own+some retired. Then we spent a few versions being weak recruiting new players, then became strong for a version or two, then some others wanted to start something on their own + some retired, so we were back being weak again - some people left for Uncensored as Lin can confirm. This continues, so every once in a while we grow back to being ok strong, and in a few versions we will probably have a weak fam. again. We have active tops, capos and members, who try to recruit and teach new players the game, when they have questions concerning the game and that's why new people actually often continue to play for us for some versions.
The reason it's actually possible to become strong again, is because we do take the chance and invite famless players and players who come and ask for an invite at our .help-channel (with the risk of hijacks and miscredit if busted for cheating) and try to see, how they act. If they play the game and do come to irc with time, then they are allowed to stay (we don't expect all newbies to come immidiately, but if we haven't seen them at irc after some time - we usually have an irc guide in our fam.forum which guides them to set irc up step by step -, then we try to write them ingame) - else we kick them, like we did with a few LCs and chiefs in last version. This ofcourse involves the risk of some of them getting akilled, since we don't know, if people we invite are cheats or real players, but we still find it as one of the only ways to recruit new players - try to invite some active players ingame and on irc and see, how they behave. In this version it backfired, since it seems like there are lots of dupes around, and I don't know, if we will continue with this strategy, since it might will get consequences with the new level-system of the families....

On a more serious note. You may carry on with the flaming/bitching/whining or what it is you anonymous ppl do. But I can say for Bruinsma - we really do not give a rats ass about what you think of us. Truely!
Kind regards
Nubson



Well, speak for your self please. I do care about what people think about me! And I'll kick/eat out anyones ass to stay alive.

Why so busy with whoms butt we lick?

If you worked out some more, instead of sitting by the computer getting bigger by the minute, perhaps then you would have an ass worth licking..
May I suggest you use a local gym (usually they are the cheapest) and while there perhaps some lackeys or a script so you dont loose rp..

On a more serious note. You may carry on with the flaming/bitching/whining or what it is you anonymous ppl do. But I can say for Bruinsma - we really do not give a rats ass about what you think of us. Truely! So perhaps your effort is better used somewhere else?

Kind regards

Strange whats changes of that in 4 million registrations and they only recruit the scripters ahahahah :P

woow this just look like an big excuse :')


In the 2.x versions, every time you died, you had to register again. Every time your dupe died, he had to register again. On every version, every server, you had to register again.
The 4 million Brando was talking about is most of all since 2003. So 8 years, 4,000,000 registrations. And in the 2.x versions a lot of those registered people were the same people re-regging as it used to be called.

The 3.2 statistics for .com read as following;
Users Registered: 61,748
Users Dead: 52,801

Most of those "registered" and dead accounts are still old accounts from 3.1 anyways, the ones they put numbers in front of instead of deleting them from the DB.

I have to say it's a stupid move to try to level up fast that way though.


Well I would say don't waste words on a comment if you know better, if Bruinsma is a loyal fam and aint scripting/duping or whatever then you shouldn't care about what people are writting inhere... aslong their bloods and their members are trusting their tops it should be ok

Well with this levelling, we wanted to get our fam, Bruinsma, as full as possible, to grow as fast as possible. Therefor we did try to get new members in another way as usual. We send out a shitload of invites to famless people, they joined and now we got paid for this move. almost 30 akills last 2 days and we dont like this at all ourselves.
So due to the lot of dupers/scripters from mostly turkey we are having these massive akills. From now on we dont send out invites to famless without talking to them. But a lot of invites prolly are still in inboxes. We try to look for who is joining us now, and if its a new invite or not.
But as stated, damage is possibly done now. we are just going to get it better....

Probably because nobody takes .nl serious. Its the most boring and useless version ever.


Boring? I agree, if you meant .com :]
Oh the .nl'ness!
