Way of the Foreman

During construction time, I used to happily build an uber structure, but it was always ruined by derps. Always.

There's no way to avoid derps until we get a popular premium server, so I found a different way altogether. I teach the derps. I go knight, and go around yelling at the "slaves" about why what they built is awful and how they can fix it. When they see my gold name and intimidating premium head, they follow my advice right away.

I have herded the derps together, made them repent from their old ways, and I have gotten some legitimately amazing castles on it, and every time I do this, 2 or 3 derps learn a bit more. I am gradually improving the playerbase.

 

So what you are saying is you yell and everyone ignores you, all the while you are knight and wasting precious build time on jack shit. Way to go.

 

Actually they do not ignore me. I give them feedback and they apply it. Ever since I've done this I have not had to deal with derp castles because I always stop them in their tracks and teach them how to make it right.

 

You are flat out lying. Maybe 1 out of 5 times does the person remain calm ,not rage, and actually listen.

 

You just need to play on better servers I guess. It works for me most of the time, and when some guy is raging, everyone ignores him.

 

So, you're the guy who stands in front of builders and blocks them from laying down blocks while distracting others with your words and spamming the emoticons? Awesome work.

 

Fixing newbie mistakes is always interesting. Mostly because I have to defend myself when they spam "KICK MOLE HES GREFIN ". I just try to impart my limited knowledge of the builder by example.

 

I laughed my butt off at this...
I've yet to actually see it happen, though.

 

Off-topic, but it always makes me smile when people call me, or Beef, or really anyone in MOLE MOLE.

"HEY MOLE, YOU ASSHOLE", when no one is actually named Mole on the server.

... The moment they make name changes available I might just switch my name. MOLE MOLE, anyone? >.>

 

Honestly, i would love to switch my name over to "Captain_Jack_Sparrow" or just "Jack_Sparrow".

 

I stopped reading there. It went well with the derpy noob in your avatar though.

Eh, in my experience, 1 in 5 people who I advise rage. Most people seem pretty willing to learn.

 

1 out of 5 rage

and 4 out of 5 don't say anything at all.

The people who do reply to me trying to advise them with sensible answers are like miracles.

 

OK. I probably exaggerated a little, I don't pay attention too much, but I think I also make good choices about who to advise.... and forget about all the instances when they didn't listen. Works so well. :D

 

You have to be careful sometimes. If the player has a dangerous number of xX Xxs in their name and begins tunneling through the base of your fortified tower to make doors, shouting at him will likely cause him to shout misspelled obscenities and, after arguing about his age, to go topple something and switch teams.

 

If you do that their likely to call you "Mo" for short...

 

This. I usually try to give advices to people who don't do stupid things, but it's really uncommon to see somebody like this. So it always ends with some noob who is unwalling his door hallway all the time and me telling stories about coidus with his mother.
