Let's talk about War and Cras, shall we?

I'm going to start off by talking about the impending Cra nerf that is supposedly coming up. Is it harsh? Yes. However, welcome to the club Cras. The fact is Srams and Sacriers have been where you are and have persevered. You will adapt and survive and if you don't, then there are 11 other classes to try out...probably 12 by this nerf.

I say this because damage should not be your driving goal with your character, it should be playstyle. Find something to lock into that you enjoy the style of play of and bear through the next few patches, because damage is definitely not constant at this time. Most of the community isn't going to look at you are a hindrance if you are fun to play with and know what you are doing. If you do that, damage will come to you.

Sometimes a game is not about the "end game" it's about the journey and how you define your character and are a part of the community.

Speaking about community, let's talk about the War.

I have this wonderful ability, it's called free-will, I like it, I'm sure it likes me because I use it excessively. So when I saw Brakmar, Amakna, and Sufokia went to war with Bonta and I saw citizens of Bonta being punted throughout Brakmar, I was curious why. So I looked for a reason and found it was pretty silly, I was actually on the side of Bonta.

Yeah, before you scream traitor, keep reading...

I was on the side of Bonta until I went to our forums and began "reading" (I'm using this loosely as what my mind tried to read reminded me of trying to clean bird poo off a windshield) what was written by some of Bonta's most vocal members and I was reminded of a cruel yet fitting joke/comparison where there is some disaster and the people interviewed are the biggest rednecks they could find. After translating posts that were what I guess meant to be written in L33T speak and then failed miserably at it, I came to another conclusion:

We didn't need to go to war with Bonta, we just needed to hand them all pairs of scissors, and in their beyond-Iopish stupidity, they would of ran around and fell upon them. Doing the job for us!

Oh well, at least this way we benefit from their lemming like behavior in the form of CPs.
