Always been wondering what all you peoples' motives were/are for joining and staying with TGA.

As for myself, it was initially just revenge, but now it's more of having fun and socializing with fellow alliance members Wink
It's damned boring if you had to play by yourself or with your old high-school friends that you don't talk much anymore...

My vote was for "Just for the hell of it."  When I started playing this game I knew absolutely nothing about it.  I don't even remember how I heard of it because nobody I know plays it.  I went to the KoC Forums and was like "Hmm...I need to join an alliance b/c I'll get wrecked on my own."  TGA was one of the first alliances I saw.  I saw it accepted elves so I figured I'd check it out.  It had a cool banner and not a gay name like the "Friendship Alliance" "Rainbow Alliance" or "We Like it Up the Butt" alliance, and that was enough for me.  Now that I'm in, the reason I stay active is for the community part, but the question asked why we joined.

[Reminiscing]
In high school someone started playing KOC and would tell us about it and a bunch of us just looked over his shoulder.  When we saw what it was, we figured it’d be a little something for us to do during our lunch break.  We weren’t really an alliance, but when someone got hit hard, we called it rape; we would start attacking back in mass.  We even kept a list of ID numbers in our agendas, of people that were good farms, or rapeable, as we called it.  But this is where we sort’a lost interest.  Things stopped being realistic, having more weapons then solders and still having them count, and attacking people with little or no defense killed hundreds of your soldiers, and exedra.  Game play slowed, and they stopped playing.  
[/flapping my lip]
[Actual answer to question]
Then I joined TGA, because there really isn’t much purpose in the game when you don’t have anyone to gossip with about the game, and to strategize with.  That’s why I was pushing for Age3 plans so much, it’s more fun to be more organized, and much more beneficial for the alliance.  Heck, the organizing might be more fun then the game at times. Tongue

Crap.  How does this happen? :angry:  I end up with long posts…it much be all the writing assignments I get, :hmmm:  and all the filler and BS I put in them. Tongue

I joined cause it was really the only alliance that appealed to me. I guess the name had a lot to do with it. It wasnt in-your-face or too glaring, nor was it boring. The Great Alliance just is what its name is. I think almost three quarters of my decision was based on name itself, and seeing it was relatively "new" (I'm member 69 and dont forget that Cheesy) I decided to join up.

That number is forum member. For TGA member you'd be aorund 400. Have a nice day Tongue.[/i]

I don't know why I'm here maybe someone can tell me. Mainly to get help and revenge. Sometimes I try to help out. I pop up here and there. I'm so damn busy with school and stuff i haven't been in the forums or the chat. I will soon. Don't forget me Sad

hmmm i was in NEA, when it was totally disorganized (rem and me posted most there :cool: ), we were having this war together with u guys, i noticed u guys were much more effective and willing to fight (and yes more fun to hang out with)
and the reason i'm staying is that i like it here, i'd might have quit KoC long time ago if it wasn't for TGA

heh, and to think that I was going to join relentless due to effectiveness and drive.  But then I saw it was nothing more then stepping on people that are new to the game, and cheap tricks like having lots of accounts... those are the exact people I don't like, so I came here. Cheesy good dissection. yes yes.

*Looks around*

Anyone who has ever suggested changing the name of this Alliance is to report to my officer for Level 5 excruciation.

Thankyou.
