Odin World Character Population (04/14/2008)

[Ameroth]

That has nothing to do with anything.

You put into words my exact feeling every time Malacite posts another web comic.

[Kurb]

yea I guess but since I ony jumpped to Odin about 3/4 weeks ago I'd say a first in last ot rule should be put into place I'wouldn't mind leaving.I wastold there was less drama more event ls ect..My first LS lasted 15/20 mins.I washoping to stay andmake a go of it but bahh.

[Malacite]

Man you people are dense. I said "love that boot", but I guess nuance is too much for you people

The topic is about too many people on Odin. I (not wanting to do anything to Fred's work and pass it off) just posted the entire thing but specifically noted the boot

Just change "Vana" to "Odin" and there ya go


EDIT: Yeah okay it was a bit vague but like I said, as an artist myself I don't like to tinker with other people's art for whatever reason. I just find that "Luv SE" boot so freaking priceless and appropriate.

Had you seen the low quality of job play on Odin, combined with skewed and boarderline outlandish claims or "tests" (usually on Colibri or Boreal Hound) from players Pandy, you'd get the joke.

I've found people on smaller servers generally have an extremely skewed perspective on things, more often than not.

As for being called an elitist, I generally take that as a compliment.

I agree with wha's her name above ^^ Odin Besieged is absolute rubish atm barely a besieged goes bye with yee loosing 2/3 generals all because ppl r always fighting boss mobs to end besieed faster when they should kill lesser nms and protect generals.With anoverpopulated server 0/1 general should be lost lol I suppose you could argru the old case of quality/ quantity though

Having some time spent on Bahmut I found that people on highly populated servers tend to be very near sighted and self centers and only can see themselves in the big picture.

Elitist from what I've encountered are self centered brats who only care about their gain.

Eh. BBQ seems to be an elitist in both the positive and negative implications equally.

Although it seems odd that there'd be a noticeable difference in the population from one server but not others (not counting Remora/Hades, which are basically FFXI penal colonies)

Hm.. I'll have to disagree with you there.

I only recently (like, last month) left Odin and the LBR LS there to go back to my home server (from 2005), Bahamut, with Branwen, Murphie, Staryiko and other awesome Cake LS members.

I can honestly say the amount of "elitist" attitude is minimal here on Bahamut. It was a lot higher on Odin. Bahamut has a rather high population of JP players too.. But that doesn't change anything.

Seriously, all I could do was lol. And lol freakin' hard. This news article made my entire year already the most awesome. Ever.
Odin kinda needs to be brought down a peg or.. Seven. (Random number ftw?)

Anyway, yeah.
Either GTFO Odin yourself, get booted from Odin to somewhere else for once or risk Odin getting deleted from the list and being split up randomly.
I'll admit, the sudden spike has been the mass transfers to Odin by particular LBR community members, me being one of them, in the grand ol' "We borked Odinz server '07". I'd moved from Diabolos to Odin and soon after, BAM! News story about Odin being over-populated. I leave and BAMBAM! More news.

...Does SE even LOOK at Bahamut's server population? It is f**king huge. 700+ people in ONE Besieged is more than enough lag plzkthx. Bad enough with only 100+..

[Bluecat]

I think that Odin needs for some of there peeps to come to Lakshmi I mean its populated but not THAT populated, we could use a few more people here xD.

I don't think Malevolent even knows what an elitist really is, either way. He just thinks being one is bad. If I'm a bad person for not having respect for people with poor gear who level just for the sake of levelling instead of doing right by thier job, I'm happy to be an elitist.

I know we at LBR haven't waved a big flag telling people to come over to Odin. Yellow Mage and others might think otherwise, but really, we haven't. What's even more sad is when some people do think that (and I'm not saying you did), they think they're going to become some star guest host. Then when they don't become a "star" they to make jaded little blogs with these insane little conspiracy theories and ramble about how the forums are on "decline." These are our trolls. And for some reason, the like to start targeting the chicks on our forum when things don't go thier way.

Best one was "Selphiie's just dating you because you're an admin, BBQ," I always loved that one. Yeah, I became an admin for the chicks and rock and roll lifestyle. Our relationship as absolutely nothing to do with the fact we live rather close by, have talked a lot and are genuinely interested in each other. Nah, its all so I can moderate/admin in her favor. I'm so being used.

[Sevv]

I blame Selphiie and BBQ for breaking odin, and they should come to cerberus

imiss lakshmai wish I could jump back >< but then I think of all the bad things aside from RMT and weirdo's which can happen on most servers

I agree with omg...... too when I see a PLD lvl 2? wearing scale gear and using a GS.Drives me mad especially when he is lecturing me on how I should heal the "tank" which is him cause he is the PLD and not the MNK even though the mob is hitting the mnk < real tank > more.Servers need less ppl like that.

I've figured out why Odin and Bahamut are so damn popular! It is the Law of Aeon Appeal. Simply put; the cooler the summoned beast, the more people want to play on that server. It certainly explains why there is nobody on Bismarck or Remora.

[Akashimo]

I'm surprised not more people are on Shiva than Odin with that Law of Aeon Appeal
