I’ve decided to take action against cancer by participating in the American Cancer Society Relay For Life event right here in my community. Relay For Life is about celebration, remembrance, and hope. By participating, I am honoring cancer survivors, paying tribute to the lives we've lost to the disease, and raising money to help fight it.

The Day The Whole World Went Away NIN

Meh, Ill help... what needs to be done?

Keep in mind that this is an early build. Blizzard also is famous for teasing it's fans and not revelealing all the information or even saying the opposite. That being said, there was an article online, I forgot where, that stated there is a 4th race. I doubt Blizzard would not include a 4th race into the mix. I don't think it would deter the game and instead improve it as it did with the warcraft series. My biggest worry is that this will turn into SC with prettier graphics. Also, with the release of Dawn of War, I think Blizzard has a pretty high bar to pass. If you include the 2 expansions, that gives you 7 races to play as, a full sci-fi univerese that was established long before SC, and the potential for extreme growth. I don't doubt Blizzard in any way. I believe this is the only company that has released nothing but great titles, I just hope that it continues this trend.

Coop, I love your sig. I personally feel that the whole situation should have been handled differently instead of just banning and a full blown deletion. Do you shoot a baby that cries a lot?

While I myself am happy to see that the site is thriving, I still feel that something was taken away. Sure I had no tangible investment into the site itself, but the community was a big part. The community is what separated OCR from a lot of other sites. Unmod was available to members only and there was a blatant warning before entering it. If stuff spilled over, fine; It's the moderators job to delete that stuff and enforce it on those forums, but getting rid of the whole forum is a bit too much. I am not saying to put it back, I am just saying to reason a bit more with it. Like coop said, it was a two way street. People in general don't like authority, and when you place authority where none is supposed to be, then we get mad. I don't know any of you IRL but that does not mean I will come bashing you. However, if you ban me, censor me, or otherwise disrespect me just because you can, then you need to take a hard look at yourself and realize I or anyone else will not tolerate that. Really, I am happy for OCR. I am proud to be a member for a long time and have been visiting the site since day 1. I think Unmod as a whole knew the limits and tried to keep things contained. If a few people spoiled it, that sucks. We should have just dealt with those people and left things running. All in all though, the decision was made and the action was taken. Though we may not all agree if was the best thing to do, it's done. Obviously I still visit OCR and obviously I am still a member, but that doesn't mean I don't feel some resentment towards the staff.

I still want to know why. Maybe it has been answered and I overlooked it, but that question still lingers for me. How can someone say a person was getting our of hand on a forum whose very name implies that things like that may happen? I don't recall ever seeing or reading anything that was VERY offensive. I think Unmod was such a HUGE part of the OCR community that when it did happen, like Coop said, people felt they got slapped in the face. I have been coming to OCR since it started up and I enjoy the site a lot, I just wish that those actions were not taken. It feels like a very large and active community of OCR was just removed for no reason. I'm am sure there is one, but that is what it seems like.

while stationed in Okinawa,Japan I saw someone on Camp Foster wearing an OCR hoodie

Que paso?......

Been there, done that. March- September '04 & June- August '06

I'll throw in my 19 and we can do it together!

Looking to make trade offers. I have Lead and Lumber. Send I am looking for Oil, cattle, water, and gold. Anything else is viable. Send me a message and a trade request if you are interested

This game looks really interesting. I have always wanted to play a game of this caliber but all the other variants had cruddy AI that sucked. Hopefully this one is better.
