    MC-War has reached a dark age since my return about 6 months ago...
    The golden days in 2012 when you could brag about getting your barrett for the first time.
    The prestige tag was the biggest achievement there was, saying that I was #4 on the leaderboards with 15k kills and level 38.
    The days when infect was so underpowered it was crazy, getting only one kill per person and being zombie was a nightmare.
    Those days when nobody complained about overpowered weapons.
    It's just stupid.
    Clans with skill but with characteristics that are simply immature.
    The barrett was fun to use and was the only non-donor OP weapon.
    Those days when you wouldn't aim and shoot perfectly fine.
    The old days when I used to be orange's old bug tester at times.
    Here's a story for you:
    Once on a good old clear saturday morning I was playing appaloosa on MC-War back in 2012 when I was only level 20 and just starting to my peak of fame. Orange came on and teleported me to a corner and handed me a stack of dirt. He told me to place it, and the entire stack but one disappeared right before my eyes. Telling orange the results, he concluded: "Good enough." I threw a couple of grenades in the air in celebration and then an opponent comes charging in. The starts shooting me, but the grenades that I threw blew up and killed the player coincidentally. Orange and I were laughing at that pretty hard.
    Those were the good times.
    Now all you see with cbows, rayguns, and other "OP" weapons equipped in players' hotbar.
    You hear rage and "Cbow noob!" and such.
    You hear atleast 10 explosions in one match, well over 2 per second on server 1.
    The days when server 1 was a noob server and you could socialize in without any in-game inconflict.
    The days when simply MC-War wasn't so bad.
    When it wasn't so bad...
    Maybe this could happen again.
    Recreate golden memories.
    Hop on empty servers and have a grand old time using noob guns and laughing.
    No raging, just a good old time.
    Those days when we would do that.
    Maybe we can do it.
    Maybe, just maybe, this can happen.
    Join me, because it isn't mother nature inviting us over.
    Let's bring MC-War out of it's dark age.
    Tryhards are for tomorrow.
    That tomorrow will be next week,
    And that next week can turn into several weeks.
    Join me soldiers, because I think it'd be nice to have a good time.
    It doesn't have to spread to the entire community, maybe like 5, or 20, or 50 players.
    Just them, having a good time, using those old weapons you created memories with.
    Fit back into your old shoes.
    Use your old style of doing things.
    Make MC-War a better place.
    C'mon let's bring this place out of the dark age of competition, rage, spam and such.
    LET'S BRING THE OLD WAR BACK!!!!

    Thank you so much @Mokolee with your rant to inspire me.

    No problem RLH. I dig what you're saying here. Mc-War was awesome during the time I played with stats shown in the chatroom.

    I totally agree that Mc-War is worst than it was before. If you check the player count on the hub, the numbers back in the old time when the youtubers showcased the server was around 600. Now that number has dwindled to somewhere around 250 on average. I bet if Mc-War went back to the way it was, (but with some balances with guns) than we might get back over 500 players online at a time. Remember when Skydoesminecraft went on the server but didn't showcase it? I bet that's because everyone went extreme tryhard on him so much that he couldn't get a kill. Just look at the screenshot of when Joey nuked the youtubers. Now you see my point?

    You're right. It used to be fun. Now I get 1 shotted every time I play, that's why I quit.

    Mc-War was awesome earlier...
    There were goals to reach, new updates we could complain about all together...
    A nice community where you would become famous if you got a 10 killstreak...
    A realistic chance to get on the leaderbaords if you work hard enough.
    Only 3 donor guns, and LAW was OP...

    I remember the olden days.
    Well, what I remember of the old days about a year and a half or so ago.
    But yes, I remember some of this.

    In my eyes, the raygun, crossbow, C4, and the nerfs to many non donor weapons ruined the server. It made it more pay to win, it's why we have the community as it is today.
    I don't even care about being prestige, it's not special at all.
    I would love to see an alternate MC-War with our stats reset, and with the good old Barrett, LAW, etc. along with no raygun, crossbow, and C4. But I doubt it will happen. Even hopping on an near empty server, I found several prestige players who were raging at a level 2 for being an "Iso noob." He left soon after.
    It's quite sad how the majority of players in War now bully new players, instead of helping them. I'm beginning to get frustrated with War, mostly because of the community.


    If only...

    McWar was great back then. No one would constantly call you a noob, or spam you. Everyone was mostly nice to each other, and having good times. Now people think it is 'competitive' and be complete dicks to everyone. Ah.. The old times..
