Good vs. EVIL
« on: November 29, 2004, 07:34:03 pm »
I have  noticed many discussions about Good and Evil. the fight of good and Evil, etc. So I wanna bundle them.

We have two extremes:
On the one hand: The fanatic Rebirth, which target it is to cleanse the world of all evil, fighting five of the evil guids at once.

On the other hand there are the Cabal, annoying, evil guild that tries to harm and disturb anything (Do this name come from Magic: The Gathering ?)

I think that both extremes are ridiculos:
Rebirth will run into the open knife and will be destroyed by the mass of it\'s enemys.

The Cabal will consume themselves, just for fun :P.
I want to be a flame, to crumble to ash, but never ever burnt.

I want to rise higher, rise up to the heavens, but sink, just sink down deeper and deeper into nothing,

I want to be an angel, a chosen, a devil, but I am just a creature that ever wants what it wont get.

Obviously you havn\'t read our guilds history/goals or anything on our site ;) I see us as quite the opposite to that description :P

I am not even in the Cabal, but the description on their website is really clear enough to understand that they are really organized, not just bad guys doing bad things..
there\'s no place like 203.81.47.91

*shrugs* You know what we have established this thing you call good vs. evil not just for ourselves but anyone that would like to join in and play. Call it ridiculous but both sides and every other alignment has worked hard to put together what we currently have and our verbal wars and controversy have been a contribution to PS and keeping the guild board somewhat active. I notice you never have anything good to say on the matter so if your not involving yourself with what we are doing just bugger off?

You know, it became kinda boring when it stopped being fight caused by different goals and started being fight between titles \'good\' and \'evil\'.

If Dark Empire titled themselves as \'neutral\' without changing goals, they wouldn\'t even be placed in Rebirth\'s enemies list.

I seriously hope that that\'s not true Drak.
Though...that makes me wonder if the Rangers are only not bothered much because of our neutral alignment...hmmm.
That would be pretty silly.

When you discus what it means to be good and evil you must realize that both good and evil have different goals in mind that often and usually cause them to clash

Ok well to start it off I must say you people are showing an awful grudge against the Cabal. I am not in their guild bu i know that no, they are not the most kind guild in PS, but that doesnt make them wrong, because of course we dont want all the guilds to be good, neutral, and Chaotic. They are very organized as leji said.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Also, there was no question about this forum, no suggestion in the main post, so why respond? he said what he wanted to say and we read it, and the way this is going i see more guild\'s clashing and arguements coming and people being banned forthwith from both game and forums.

In my opinion, the extremes are basically bounded to their alignments as to \"very good\" - \'lawful good\' and \'\'extremely bad\" - \'chaotic evil\'. The \"extreme\" alignment by itself automatically sends you into a \"slaughter house\'\' with all the opponents of the not just opposite \"extreme\", but all the opposite alignment.
*goes off to the guild list*
So... on one side we have Defenders (lawful good), but we lack the opposite extreme. Too bad...  Even if The Cabal is not extreme, it is considered to be the closest to the extreme so far.




P.S. No offence to other evil guilds.

But not always. And remember that normally guilds wouldn\'t have sticked \'evil\' or \'good\' on their front doors.
Of course we have guilds like
Cabal: \"omgz!!1 were tr00 evuhl!!!!\"
or
IT: \"you chould be evil or you chould die!!!\"

But there are evil guilds which aren\'t actually running around shouting how evil they are...

Why nobody ever speaks about Chaos versus Law. That is big battle with the right settings too ;) And it won\'t be as big cliche as that Evuhl vs Tah Goodz0r zomg lol thing -____-

Juh... Lets go to Kada\'s.. but aren\'t drunken people kinda chaotic.. ?

Blah.. Alignment discussions suck. Lets just forget this thread and look at the archives for previous threads like:

http://www.planeshift3d.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=6420&boardid=19&sid=1a09fa47ece06006e6953e2051dd0905&page=1

Note: These two are randomly taken alignment threads from the past -.-
