francis172 7 Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Hi Brian, Interesting ama so far, like the other one. ( Thanks Null for posting ama link on discord :$) I have some questions for you ;).These are all related (for rs) during di rs2 era. I will try not to ask the same questions that have been asked before in current ama and previous one. My English is still not perfect, haha. At what time/did you enjoy RS the most If you compare the 04/05/06/07/08/09 era with each other and why? At what period from 04-09 did you like the clan community the most and why ? At what period from 04-09 did you like the DI members community the most and why ? What are your top 3/4/5 pk videos you liked to watch from your own intro/fa members? What are your top 3/4/5 pk videos you liked to watch from people outside of DI? What are your top 3/4/5 clan,pk run in, war videos you liked to watch from your own intro/fa members? What are your top 3/4/5 clan, pk run in, war videos you liked to watch from people outside of DI? If you compare the workload from 04 to 09. Can you rank (and explain) the years from low/easy to hard/tough? Example: 2005 =4 : this was the easiest year as we crushed all clans. 2007 = 1. This was the hardest year as we had to deal with people retiring after DS died, clans catching up on us @ hp levels. Fighting more NH clans on p2p, dealing with a lot of spies etc. How did a regular day look like for you as an leader ? Example: you wake up, open up/load DI forums,msn , IRC and check mail/pm’s and then discuss wth ranked members, log into rs and afterwards check for news/updates ? If you could train someone/some people around 08-09 to delegate your leadership to hand over DI…who would (these persons) it be? If you were away (few days off, holidays, due to rl concerns) the organization could be bad. This was imo an weakness. Do you not regret delegating your leadershipstyle to certain warlords/ranked members so that we would be more organized in case you were not there ? What did you expect in general as an warlord of DI? And how come some of them did disappoint you ? What did you see in them (potentially)? As you mentioned that you had regret to appoint Suffocate etc. Would there be any other important goal/subgoals if we maintained #1 in p2p+ f2p like in 2004/2005 ? What would be this goal ? DI was the only clan that had the most members that were (high) ranked members in previous clans. What were your thoughts on people like (just to name a few that pop up in my mind) ex-trwf leader Kammerat did not go for an rank? Which member(s) did you want to see in any kind of role and why.. but never applied for it? You mentioned The lord### as an underrated member. Are there in your opinion more and if yes, can you name then? For example Skater#### and Zparanoid were underrated for me. If you were obligated to do an shout out to all members when you closed down DI..how would you handle it ? (will you just say for example: goodluck in real life or be more personally/directly and say things that you remember of them during the time the person was a DI member ? Which ex-di member/intro/fa you secretly wanted in di/or at least give an shot but never got into di and why ? I remember people like hellhole###, mta, dnas3, bibbleboy never got (back) in DI. Why was Geezerpunk (and maybe others) allowed to have an app. poll as he only (if I remember good) pked a few weeks with us while all members around middle/late -05 to -09 needed to pk at least for an month ? Did he do something behind the scenes what we as normal/non ranked members were not aware of ? Were there still spies left after DI closed? (Sandman for example..as you think was lol?)If yes, who were these spies ?If yes, what did they do good as you did not catch them? What are your thoughts/sentiments on the whole spying that occurred in 2007 ? (pay back for us?) How do your real life friends describe you ?(example:friendly person, loud, open) Ever went to see an match of cr7 irl? At what rank/how will Man U end this season in PL and CL ? Thanks in advance for answering 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Embrace 17 Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 (edited) Speaking of crimes and DI members, I've gone down the rabbit hole and found this. Can you use your high tech to verify for me the authenticity of what I think I have found?

@Brian 2,802 Posted September 22, 2021 Author Share Posted September 22, 2021 At what time/did you enjoy RS the most If you compare the 04/05/06/07/08/09 era with each other and why? 04 was definitely the most enjoyable era because everything was so new and everyone was also really naive. Anything could happen back then and it often did. Kicking someone out of axes often led to multiple members from clans showing up and fights kicking off. At what period from 04-09 did you like the clan community the most and why ? Clan community was probably the best around 05 before clans like DS came along and started with rl flaming etc. Just went downhill from there over the years. At what period from 04-09 did you like the DI members community the most and why ? The community was probably at it's best around 08 and the BH era. This was a time when we were all pretty relaxed cause there wasn't much competition and we really got into other games like CS 1.6. The community was good during the early days too but this was pre teamspeak era and not really the same. What are your top 3/4/5 pk videos you liked to watch from your own intro/fa members? maybe this was after he left though? What are your top 3/4/5 pk videos you liked to watch from people outside of DI? What are your top 3/4/5 clan,pk run in, war videos you liked to watch from your own intro/fa members? What are your top 3/4/5 clan, pk run in, war videos you liked to watch from people outside of DI? Can't see it uploaded but I always liked Killerconvics vids cause of his music, before he was DI If you compare the workload from 04 to 09. Can you rank (and explain) the years from low/easy to hard/tough? Example: 2005 =4 : this was the easiest year as we crushed all clans. 2007 = 1. This was the hardest year as we had to deal with people retiring after DS died, clans catching up on us @ hp levels. Fighting more NH clans on p2p, dealing with a lot of spies etc. 2007>2006>2005>2004>2008>2009 Pretty much when you said for 2007, dealing with a lot of shit from AG all the time with spies etc and for part of the year DS too. 2006 we were dealing with clans catching up and the rise of DS 2005 and 2004 are kinda similar, just a lot of work cause it was always about being active then. PKs/fights/etc every single day 2009 we had some competition from RoT in P2P but it wasn't that serious 2008 was easy when BH came out, a lot less stress due to lack of events etc How did a regular day look like for you as an leader ? Example: you wake up, open up/load DI forums,msn , IRC and check mail/pm’s and then discuss wth ranked members, log into rs and afterwards check for news/updates ? Something like that. Generally I'd need to spend like an hour catching up on IRC chats etc every day, then get down to respond everything on forums. I really didn't have time to play RS a lot of days just due to addressing anything that needed to be addressed, or it would be late into the night before I had time to play. If you could train someone/some people around 08-09 to delegate your leadership to hand over DI…who would (these persons) it be? Dark Sora100. Always considered him to be protege. I don't think he would have wanted to become leader but he was the person in the clan most like me. If you were away (few days off, holidays, due to rl concerns) the organization could be bad. This was imo an weakness. Do you not regret delegating your leadershipstyle to certain warlords/ranked members so that we would be more organized in case you were not there ? I think it was just a lack of respect for these guys. People weren't afraid of these guys even though I'm sure people must have known they'd get reported to me when I was back, they just thought nothing would happen if they fucked around when I wasn't there. What did you expect in general as an warlord of DI? And how come some of them did disappoint you ? What did you see in them (potentially)? As you mentioned that you had regret to appoint Suffocate etc. Back then it wasn't really about calling cause it was pre teamspeak days etc. Calling was only a thing later on (say after 07). Before calling though the things I expected were to be able to organise and lead stuff in single. Mb pks etc. Would there be any other important goal/subgoals if we maintained #1 in p2p+ f2p like in 2004/2005 ? What would be this goal ? An important part of DI was always the community so it would have been something around that, keeping it active outside of events. DI was the only clan that had the most members that were (high) ranked members in previous clans. What were your thoughts on people like (just to name a few that pop up in my mind) ex-trwf leader Kammerat did not go for an rank? I liked Kammerat, he was a good guy and smart. His brother Myyg was a nice guy too. I think the thing with Kammerat was he was just too busy with life. He would have made a good rank though. Which member(s) did you want to see in any kind of role and why.. but never applied for it? Generally speaking if I felt someone was good and wanted to be ranked I'd push them towards applying. Can't think of anyone off hand I was disappointed about not applying. You mentioned The lord### as an underrated member. Are there in your opinion more and if yes, can you name then? For example Skater#### and Zparanoid were underrated for me. It's hard to remember specific individuals but if I just look at the ending member list and pick 5: (Outside of the 3 you mentioned) Mongomonsta8 05Grogan Geertjen2 C6burt Fefe2 If you were obligated to do an shout out to all members when you closed down DI..how would you handle it ? (will you just say for example: goodluck in real life or be more personally/directly and say things that you remember of them during the time the person was a DI member ? I knew very member well enough to say a few words about them back then. Which ex-di member/intro/fa you secretly wanted in di/or at least give an shot but never got into di and why ? I remember people like hellhole###, mta, dnas3, bibbleboy never got (back) in DI. Yea one of the guys you mentioned there Dnas. Was an important player in TD and we worked on recruiting him in DI thinking he was going to be a big addition. Unfortunately he never made it beyond FA because of his beef with Bibbleboy. Why was Geezerpunk (and maybe others) allowed to have an app. poll as he only (if I remember good) pked a few weeks with us while all members around middle/late -05 to -09 needed to pk at least for an month ? Did he do something behind the scenes what we as normal/non ranked members were not aware of ? I can't remember this specifically. Was this maybe after he got perm banned and came back on another account? Were there still spies left after DI closed? (Sandman for example..as you think was lol?)If yes, who were these spies ?If yes, what did they do good as you did not catch them? What are your thoughts/sentiments on the whole spying that occurred in 2007 ? (pay back for us?) I don't think there was any left when we closed. I feel like a lot of the people who spied were just money hungry. Most never ended up joining AG or lasting there long. Money meant more in the game then I guess since buying gold etc wasn't really a thing. How do your real life friends describe you ?(example:friendly person, loud, open) Most of them would describe me as a funny guy. I like to do things that make people laugh. Ever went to see an match of cr7 irl? Nope At what rank/how will Man U end this season in PL and CL ? They'll win everything now that the 🐐 is back 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
