Well I did play with some Kong types a long time ago, maybe even back during the beta it's been so long, but since then I haven't really been involved. I've had really bad experiences with Veeky Forums communities so I avoid getting too attached to them.
As far as I can see it is that the standard formula is:
Stage 1) Special snowflakes join community (homosexuals, girls, etc.) and form cliques.
Stage 2) The weebs abandon the group, pushed out by the cliques.
Stage 3) Cliques gain clout and influence, establishing social dominance within group.
Stage 4) Cliques come in direct conflict with existing power structure after becoming too presumptuous of their own power.
Stage 5) Community fracture.
I mean sure if you don't want me in the group then that's fine. I just distance myself so I don't get caught up in the drama. I only play MWO periodically these days anyway.
First for remove kit. It's only a matter of time before she starts inviting furries in, like how retards like Spud invited Pardo in.

Sounds like kong is stage 3 right now.

I want to ask the nominally sane people in mumble like Whispers and Accurs why they've let things get as bad as it has.
Is it because you just want to play robutts and have no interest in community building?
Brody Cook
If this game wasn't so fucking dead I'd create a new Veeky Forums unit.
Jaxson Murphy
Game being dead hasn't stopped you from playing with and paying the PIG so why should it stop you from creating a new unit?

Michael Carter
>two MG's and AMS Destroyer of sides. Is it under tonnage, or literally filled to the brim with ammo? Hell of a troll build, I give it 4 Machine gun King Crabs out of 5.
David Martinez
It's like HUcuck's Jaeger build that was a literal bomb waiting to go off since it was filled with Machinegun ammo with like 6 machineguns
Levi Turner
You've kept saying the game is dead for 4 fucking years and for 4 fucking years people have still been able to play it any day and any hour of the week.
Michael Baker
I don't have to tell you that the general is mostly for shitposting and the mumble is mostly for playing games and having fun. The only thing they have in common is the robot games.
Parker Watson

I keep saying the Gauss memes need to die, but no one believes me. I shoulda grabbed bears. I could have done so well in them.
Aiden Gomez
>people have still been able to play it any day and any hour of the week
The fuck does that have to do with something being dead? People stay play plenty of dead games.
Are you some sort of fucking newfag?
Colton Torres
ebin :DDD
Josiah Cox
Jesus fucking christ I was just memeing. You really are a newfag.
I'm going to educate you because I'm feeling magnanimous today. When someone on this Malaysian ladyboy forum says 'geam is ded' they mean that interest and player numbers have dropped to the point that the game servers might as well be offline.
Congratulations kid, today you have learned something. Isn't culture grand?

Klord Accurs here, what did you mean by this?
Here's my answer though: Yes, I mostly care about playing robutts and having fun. I also like dank memes. Sometimes I'll drop the hammer on memble. If someone like Greg keeps blogging about his day over our tacticool comms though he'll get the boot. Eventually they'll shut up. Why not ban you ask? I guess because we're a democracy and would probably have to vote on that matter, lest people get butthurt and bitch at me because created an even bigger rift, becoming known as Accurs "The Apocalpyse" 3D, literally worse than Kakos "Hitler " Kolos.
As for the apparently rampant shitposting, that's just people false flagging/meming. Much of it can also be attributed to a certain Finn who does nothing but export memes digitally. His partner in crime is Dudebot, who has now both automated and outsourced his shitposting by using Filipinos and coding. For example, every Greg post gets an automatic "Keep me posted" reply. He's currently developing an algorithm that'd work for Haruko, as they don't have a tripcode. In regards to being beta orbiters, I don't believe any of the true klords are but I'm not too sure about the peasants.
Here's the summary: >robots >memes/shitposting >fuck off with your blog shit
To be quite honest my man, it should be survival of the fittest. Individuals like Pardo don't last. Others have lasted longer then they should have, but eventually succumb. I only care that you are a generally "sociable" (team game) and competent player.
Truly though, what you said is true. There's too many degenerates and shitters. Some have overstayed their welcome. The situation is pretty grim and does not bode well for our future. How have they lasted this long? Kong is weak. I blame an inefficient and corrupt government that rests on its laurels.
If only a wall could be built to keep these unwanted immigrants out, Kong would be saved, and made great again.
Austin Thomas
MWO is dead as any dead game can be. Deal with it kid. No matter how much you meme at me, that's not going to change.
Gavin Reyes
Well then my question is how do we Make Kong Great Again?
Lincoln Barnes
>For example, every Greg post gets an automatic "Keep me posted" reply. >He's currently developing an algorithm that'd work for Haruko, as they don't have a tripcode. The funny part is that this is all true.
Jacob Hall
>His partner in crime is Dudebot, who has now both automated and outsourced his shitposting by using Filipinos and coding
I actually believe this. It's the sort of thing he would do.
Lincoln Ortiz
>In regards to being beta orbiters, I don't believe any of the true klords are but I'm not too sure about the peasants. You kidding? You can clearly hear a change in tone in some people whenever either kit or haruko enters the room. They change their positions from talking about the game or whatever the fuck, to asking questions about the daily lives of these two. It's pathetic.
My belief that vass is the only honest person in the group and that's only because he's too drugged up to even realize what he's talking about.
Joseph Sanders
Yeah I wouldn't never accuse Vass of beta orbiting. If anything certain members of Kong orbit around him like he's their drug addled messiah. That's not on Vass, that's on the retards. It's not his fault that they take his insane rambling for wisdom.
David Diaz
A key part to my "Make Kong Great Again" (MKGA) campaign is immigration.
Tackling the issue of immigration is not an easy task, but reform must happen.
1. A nation without borders is not a nation. There must be tighter controls at the border, and we must facilitate the deport the unwanted.
2. A nation without laws is not a nation. Laws passed in accordance with our Constitutional system of government must be enforced.
3. A nation that does not serve its own citizens is not a nation. Any immigration plan must improve gameplay, camaraderie, and memes for all Konglets.
Would you like to point out these individuals?
If you listen to a drugged and drunk Swede then you're bound to get cucked.
Nathan Flores
>A key part to my "Make Kong Great Again" (MKGA) campaign is immigration.
I think MKGA needs to focus on breaking away from the establishment. Make our own rules and enforce them without mercy.
I am fully in support of completely banning any and all immigration to Kong.
James Roberts
Getting rid of all the euros and aussies in Kong would go a long way towards cleaning up all the shit that's been happening.
Sign me up for MKGA. This is a movement I can get behind.
Christopher Scott
Decided to give the game another spin after a year and a half break.
Marauder?
Yes or no?

It's hard to read when EVERY POTENTIAL NEW FRIEND TURNS OUT TO BE A DEGENERATE WHO STOPS LIKING ANIME SUDDENLY BECAUSE NOW SHES A "RAVER" AND WANTS TO "MOVE AWAY" FROM THAT SO SHE CAN HOOK UP WITH "RAVER DUDES" AS A "GATEWAY INTO HARDER STUFF LMAO WEED IS PRETTY AWESOME" SO NOW YOU HAVE TO GO TO FANIME FRIENDLESS AGAIN BECAUSE LITERALLY EVERY HUMAN BEING BUT ME IS A PATHETIC SACK OF SHIT HAORLRSS MONKEY WHO LITERALLY CANNOT CONTROL THEIR IMPULSES AND IMMEDIATELY DROPS EVERYTHING TO COMPLETELY GET FUCKED UP THE MOMENT THEY GET A TASTE OF THE NORMIE LIFE INSTEAD OF STAYING WITH ME AND TALKING ABOUT ANIME SO I DONT KILL MYSELF OUT OF CRIPPLING LONELINESS >lmao she doesn't drink?

Jacob Watson
Finally found a use for this thing
Ryan Kelly
jokes aside 6 flamers and 6 small pulse is a build, very difficult to win against that in a brawl, and most people panic anyway when faced with flamers because they don't know what they do so they just overheat and become a free kill
Austin Sanders
good job emperor king vass
we've got rid of all the shitters and now kong is pure and nobody can stop us playing robots forever
did you buy the kodiaks too?
what is your favorite build?
Brayden Kelly
So I caved and bought the MAD-3R.
Is AC/10 + AC/5 and 4x Med Pulse Lasers an acceptable build or do I HAVE to pack PPC's on the fucker?
Brayden Lee
>mixing autocannons oh shit nigger what are you doing anyways the build is 2UAC5, 2PPC. You could replace the PPCs with LPLs if you're gay.
all viable builds using a std300 engine stay away from ac10 and lb10x, or uac5s when the mech doesn't have uac5 specific quirks
Christopher Anderson
>anyways the build is 2UAC5, 2PPC >posting gman garbage stop
Dominic Wood
Literally Kong approved build, even ask Vass.
Jaxon Harris
You mean the drugged up Swede who runs an XL and LRMs in his Marauder? That guy?
Jack Butler
I'll personally vouch for the effectiveness of the 2UAC5, 2PPC Marauder.
Owen Brooks
You have relatively high mounts and a bunch of guns on an agile mech, of course it's going to be effective. But you can do better.
Charles Cruz
I freely admit to having no idea what I'm doing. Like I said before, I haven't touched the game in almost two years, and everything has changed since then.
Why is mixing an AC/10 with an AC/5 considered bad? I'm putting out pretty decent damage, and having zero ammo/heat issues with the build.
I might opt to get rid of the pulse lasers though since their range seems kinda shitty.
Jaxon Cook
You want to match weapon cycle times as much as you can because the longer you face the enemy, the more damage they can deal to you.
Eli Evans
Yeah, I understand the cycling thing, but the difference in reload time between the AC/5 and AC/10 seems really negligible to me.
I did take a look at this 'quirks' thing though, and see why guys are firm about the PPC's on the 3R. That +50% velocity seems pretty damned handy, even if the heat management on PPC's gets irritating.
Thanks for not instantly 'sperging out on me too.
Alexander James
Here you go, the engine ratings, heatsink and ammo amounts can obviously be adjusted to personal preference, but these all use the same engine that came with the mech so it's easy to try them out.
