06:33:50 Apr 11th 11 - Mr. Sladius Maximus:

What defines a VU vet? im just curious.. is it how long they have played, their highest final score or the opinion of the public?


07:07:11 Apr 11th 11 - Mr. Tyrgalon The Troll:

I personally would say time of playing and opinion of people who played with/against em.
High scores arenīt something to really make an opinion from, since they arenīt balanced.


07:18:06 Apr 11th 11 - Mr. Sladius Maximus:

ok they, what's the amount of time played before considered a vet?? I mean iv played 28 eras.. Am I a vet??


07:43:12 Apr 11th 11 - I am Rotten Apple:

Slade you will never be a vet :p


08:08:43 Apr 11th 11 - General Who:

my guess is, if u have to ask if you. then you arent... lol


08:48:44 Apr 11th 11 - Mr. Sladius Maximus:

lol.... Well all iv been reading is.. Vets left, vet this vet that and I just wanna know what defines a vet that's all... I know I'm not zond, I consider elsin, binh, rox, brashen and ford vets..


09:15:59 Apr 11th 11 - Mr. Tyrgalon The Troll:

It also of course depends on how you define a vet, in other words what the word veteran means to you.

I'd say I'm not a vet, but I too would say Rox, Elsin, Ford, Devi, Binh, Osi and others are vets.

*humpf* If they're vets, there's no way I'm not either

15:43:51 Apr 11th 11 - Mr. Wittyusername:

*I* am a vet, and nothing any of you say can prove otherwise :)


16:39:33 Apr 11th 11 - I am Legend:

21:38:26 Apr 11th 11 - Mr. Sladius Maximus:

lol i will say it again, i dont consider myself a vet, i have played longer then a small hand full of people, those people plus maybe one or 2 i consider vets, as they all have wicked skills and have no life, i so envy and feel bad for them :P
joking :P


23:54:25 Apr 11th 11 - Mr. Inception:

In my opinion, vets are determined by those who have been playing for about 20+ eras and who are very skilled. These people are evident in their fighting styles.


00:38:41 Apr 12th 11 - Mr. Samual:

Well I have played since era 33, that must be close to or over 30 odd eras now. Though I don't really think of vet's in the game anymore as so many have left, but out of the people that still play today I think I must be one of the few people that have stuck with this game for so long.


02:01:33 Apr 12th 11 - Mr. Razios:

Second Era of Draiken. Hurray.


02:14:03 Apr 12th 11 - Mr. Friendly Forum User:

Being a vet used to mean something, when the game was good and balanced. To have played through the early ages to mid-VU was a joy.

Anybody who hangs around playing VU still after all this time, isn't a vet. They're stupid. VU is shit, only dumb-dumbs would continue playing this garbage.


cy@ scrubs get stomped


03:02:19 Apr 12th 11 - Puppy Fracker:

Anyone who hangs around on the forum to keep bitching about the game is a troll; as well as bored and wanting attention. ;)


03:06:56 Apr 12th 11 - Mr. Inception:

I too dont consider myself a vet, and Ive been around since era 38.


As for people still being around, we remain because of our love of the game. Its the best strategy game Ive found, and yes it has declined, but its concepts are still there. I dont know about anyone else, but I will continue to play until the game until I cant anymore.


04:32:29 Apr 12th 11 - Mr. Pride:

if you are 3 or more eras in. as opposed to Noooooooooooooo

b
s
that still have yet to figure out a strategy and only survive due to joined powerful kingdoms


05:24:30 Apr 12th 11 - Mr. Uther Pendragon:

I've been playing on and off when i can since era 29? (i think thats right, i cant remember)
I may be senile but that doesnt make me a vet.
lol
I didn't know that Zond was back.
Not next era but the era after i will have to join you because before you left i said i would join but i wound up quitting right after i joined.
srry Zond

*mumbles something about Romans*

*stumbles out*


07:58:23 Apr 12th 11 - Mr. Tyrgalon The Troll:

I consider myself like a semi-vet, I have been playing since era 25, and thats longer than the majority of VUs current population I think.

But this is my own lighter definition of a vet, because in my oppinion resricting vets to Rox, Elsin, Ford, Devi, Binh, Osi and others is rather extreme.
They are very good players, vets of the vets so to speak.


11:48:27 Apr 12th 11 - Mr. Mielo:

I consider myself like a semi-vet, I have been playing since era 25, and thats longer than the majority of VUs current population I think.

I think there are still loads of people here from around era 20 and before that ...


16:20:06 Apr 12th 11 - Mr. Tom Bombadildo:

being vet is largely relative to who your comparing the person with, keeping in mind that the more eras that go by, the more vets there will be. so imo there, currently, are vets ( era 20-30) and then theres vets (eras 1-10).


23:31:36 Apr 12th 11 - Mr. Razios:

Septim's still here. Oh dear.


00:45:34 Apr 13th 11 - Mr. Tom Bombadildo:

hi razios, im brannigans :D


05:44:05 Apr 13th 11 - Emperor Alexius Septimus Cidellus:

*stumbles back in and pokes Razios with a stick*


Of COURSE I'm here! Where would I go? The world outside is scary...


07:16:32 Apr 13th 11 - Mr. Wittyusername:

errr... your poking razios with your stick inside, and yet you say the outside world is scary. Riiiiiight.... :)


07:21:18 Apr 13th 11 - Emperor Alexius Septimus Cidellus:

It's my walking stick, you ass!


*bonks Wittyusername over the head*


13:09:58 Apr 13th 11 - Mr. Boni:

You will be suprised how many 'vets' are still playing this game. A lot of 'vets' recreated a new acount to begin a new VU-life.
I've been around since era 13. When most people hear that i've been playing since 13 ERA'S then they think i am a vet, but i just consider myself as an experienced player.

So who's a vet and who's not i an opinion and not a fact.


02:57:19 Apr 14th 11 - Mr. Razios:

A veteran is one who used crosswalls to effectively secure their core... So I'm a veteran. Woop.


04:51:28 Apr 14th 11 - The Architect:

Friggin loved crosswalls, and great walls in general.  


Has anything changed enough to make it worthwhile to come back yet?


05:16:55 Apr 14th 11 - Mr. Wittyusername:

I just backstabbed my own kd and am currently winning. Does that make me a vet? :)


07:15:53 Apr 14th 11 - Mr. Koreh:

no, it makes you a moron.

anyway, there is no definition of a Vet within VU.

people will say its how long theyve played (i myself back in era 10)

then there are those who say only skill matter, and that they are vets because they had a high score once.


09:56:36 Apr 14th 11 - Mr. Tyrgalon The Troll:

Thats why I called myself a semi-vet and not just a vet lol :P


19:31:28 Apr 14th 11 - Mr. Friendly Forum User:

There are 4 types of players in VU.



Idiots - Players who have played long enough to be considered a vet, but continue playing the game in its shit state.

Vets - Ex-players who had played long enough to be considered a vet, but quit because the game is terri-bad.

Wannabes - Players who desperately want the recognition of being a "vet". Say they've played since era 15-20. Make "vet" topics.

Scrubs - Everybody else


cy@ faggots.


19:51:37 Apr 14th 11 - Puppy Fracker:

Can someone ban this fellow? All he does is troll. lol It's not even clever of funny either, it's just a desperate cry for attention.


04:05:37 Apr 15th 11 - Mr. Wittyusername:

So by your definition, you are either an idiot or a scrub. Cool.


01:29:16 Apr 16th 11 - Mr. Karl Marx:

In what way does skill relate to being a veteran? The two things don't relate, coincide, breed or anything!

People can still be veterans and still incredibly bad at whatever it is they are veterans in. Veteran is just a title awarded for time, or in the military, encounters survived :)

Several sources to back what I say:

A veteran (from Latin vetus, meaning "old") is a person who has had long service or experience in a particular occupation or field; " A veteran of ..." . ...
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veteran

  • a serviceman who has seen considerable active service; "the veterans laughed at the new recruits"
  • a person who has served in the armed forces
  • an experienced person who has been through many battles; someone who has given long service

19:51:30 Apr 17th 11 - Puppy Fracker:

20:39:37 Apr 17th 11 - Mr. Eddie:

00:24:30 Apr 12th 11 - Mr. Uther Pendragon:
