Dear RakionLeague,

Jowy2000 · Posted: Thu Oct 26, 2006 9:16 pm Post subject: Dear RakionLeague,

It has come to my attention that a wonderful new method to bypass the painful, slow, and tedious methods of leveling up has arisen and presented itself to the Rakion community. This method, involving abuse of the Halloween event, is tempting: hundreds of experience points can be earned in a very little amount of time alternating nak kills(Nak Swapping) in a set golem game. They damage the golem to get cp, and spawn Naks for eachother to kill. I hereby deem this "Swapping 2.0."
I hope I speak for everyone here when I say Swapping 2.0 is disgusting, a means of leveling up only used by individuals who lack general decency and morals in regards to Softnyx, Rakion, and the Rakion community. I see the Jack-o-Lanterns as a pleasant reward for typical gameplay, not to become a method of typical gameplay itself.
I of course can't take any action against individuals who commit Swapping 2.0 but I will personally be disgusted, because not only am I against illegitimately gaining levels, but I am also a supporter of Nak rights and am the president of NAPT(Naks Are People Too). The fact that people would be willing to sacrifice the life of their Naks in order to potentially gain 10 more experience makes me ill to my stomach. If you think that the Naks can't feel you are wrong, and you are heartless. Since the Naks were enslaved involuntarily on the fields of Roperd by Alcon, they have been abused endlessly.
What are we if we measure a living being solely by their cell points and level? Who are we to force creatures to suffer from our warmongering?
I am ashamed of you "people"
If you've participated in this Nak genocide, Swapping 2.0, I'm amazed you can sleep at night, and I hope one day you too are sacrificed for experience.

Emotionally Hurt,
Jowy and Jowy's Nak

Indeed, Strokke please add this to the league rules that swapping 2.0 is against the ruels to the league.

There are already tons of "bring nak" games, so word would have gotten out anyway.
Btw my Nak just ordered an ak47 off ebay, so beware.

I am part of the Nakkers Squad, so I am also a supporter of Nak rights. Stopping the swapping 2.0 will also stop the abuse of Naks. Please support the Naks folks. We need all the help we can get.

Someone alert Softnyx of this matter, so that we can bring these swapper 2.0s and Nak abusers to justice.

And why is my nak such a wimp... Jowy's bought an ak47 while mine bought a hello kitty doll. WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!!!!

there is nothing wrong with asking people to bring naks to a game as long as you play normally. i mean hell basic is exactly like that. its when people abuse by summoning naks constantly and purposely only killing each others naks that its abusing. if you are playing a solo deathmatch where you are actually playing a deathmatch and you ask people to bring naks thats perfectly legitimate.

thats probably whats happening, ppl are sitting in games taking swings at the gold golem for cp and killing eachothers naks.

Softnyx will probably get them banned for swapping anyways.

You're not playing normally if you're encouraging people to bring naks solely for the purpose of increasing the odds of getting a pumpkin.
How many "bring naks" games did you see before this event?
I would frown on any intentional attempts to increase the chances of getting a pumpkin.
Though obviously its not quite the same as "Swapping 2.0"

summoning naks is a good strategy in deathmatches though, people go for them and you get free hits on them. if they get a pumpkin good for them, if a pumpkin falls and i kill them right afterwards then i get it, amd woohoo.

And if you really have that much of a problem with it then you should complain about people playing basic games, because a bring nak game is just basic with stats.

thats not swapping, thats strategy.

since people know that creatures drop lanterns, they will go for them more often now, and unless the onwer of the creatures didn't drop them on purpose for the reason of letting the enemy get a lantern, then it wont be called swapping.
.. Man I bet that will be some lame excuse.. He was summoning! I want more xp.. so I just continue to kill his naks/panzers/crossobw/ whatever
Sidenote: If you kill a dragon, would it be a floating latern? if so.. how iwll you get it?
