OHHHHHH What has become of our beloved COBRA!?!?!?
Quote:
I got 3 messages from different people trying to recruit me back. I have just lost interest in the game so I never showed up. But heck... I'll give NV143 credit, the dude bleeds blue and red and to see him not defect to another team just to play the game says something to me.

I for one would love to weigh in my opinion on the current state of COBRA. First of all, going back in time we were THE SHIT. The Joes couldn't beat us and they knew they were out coached. (That's when PYRO, ROB & Money ran the show). I was fortunate to share leadership with ROB and with Money on the tail end of these glory days. I believe our longest streak was something like 12 straight victories. The games were long and greuling but we owned the Joes aka "CLOWNS" and we made them cry & complain about us on a daily basis (and we loved it). Those who wore the Blue & Red were true & loyal. (this was up till almost a year ago). PYRO, ROB & Money began the JOE UNIVERSE webpage and moved on to do a game there. So some of us were doing both to support our fellow snakes. I took on more of a leadership role. The game went into this "Game has to expand" mode and recruited everyone we could. The only criteria was be on the boards for more than 30 days basically. This led to a whole bunch of different characters with differing agendas. Rob was now running the game in place of PYRO due to some change in the JU team setup. With all these newbies, we had some who wanted to create drama, flame the other board and not follow the rules which led to fines, bans, feuds with the clowns, and eventually led to a schism within the COBRA ranks. Some of these rebel-rousers moved into leadership after I stepped down and before you know it the next leader's lack of experience caused him to "FIRE" about 5-7 the most loyal COBRA's because he was jealous of their also sharing time on JU. (Which did not hamper their posting on HT at all). I was one of those. That didn't last long as VQ stepped in to save the day and restore order in his PINK galaxy. With all the drama, some grew tired and stopped playing. Rob went on to form another webpage. Then those who had issue with duel roles went on to have duel roles on that page... (yawn... sorry). Anyway, I came up with this GREAT idea to form a 3rd team. I asked VQ if we could form a "DREADNOK" army since I was not enjoying the COBRA leadership and the decisions they were making. We all eventually "made nice" and kept COBRA together. However, it didn't last long and some Snakes decided the 3rd team idea was worthy. Now we have essentually two Cobra teams with the Iron Grenadiers. I am not playing at this time because I just lost interest. The game has changed far beyond what it was supposed to be. Just a fun get away where you can go in once a day and make a move to impact a game to see if your team wins. That was it. It was tactful yet simple. Separating COBRA was a poor idea. Sorry I ever put those wheels into motion. Now we have what we got. I think if the game were to go forward and have fun participation it just needs to pull back together. The drama that created the need for the 3rd team just needs to not be tollerated. We are all adults and should be expected to play like so. I agree with the lack of posting. I used to post pop-culture pics and spam our own thread with the likes of everything from beautiful ladies, muppet babies, goonies, admiral akbar pics... you name it. We had fun, we were on the top of the boards and we loved it. The fun had left the simplicity has left and the loyal teammates who bled blue & red were pushed away. Let's bring that back. Then you'll have leaders who want to step up. I applaud NIGHTVIPER143 for all his hard work in trying to resurrect this great team. Other long-time loyal teammates who would be a true benefit to have back include (but not limited to Batman, Rader, DustyCarlisle, Lody,

Thanks for the endorsement DD, now sign the damn line and let's get back to kicking butt.
IG's are long overdue in their Come Uppence... You know it, I know it.... We need some HARDCORE Veterans back to make this happen. And we need NEW BLOOD, to teach the old ways too... and we need to do it today. We've got some Awesome Vipers in the making... Viper Officer and NSP are definitely top of the line Cobra's who have sustained superior performance since they crashed on to the scene. Some mid level Cobra's that are always ready when called like The Baroness and Python_Puckman never seem to be in short supply. A Handful of the old Gen like AVAC, Lody and Vulcan Raven have already returned and try to do thier part. But there is much more to do. And we need more players like you to help get it done. Dusty put in for a minute,... you seem to want to get back in, and I've seen the devilish look of Nostalgia in 'The Dark Knight's' eyes. So let's get past the past. All the guys that were making the Viper Pit seem a little to cozy are gone. That stuff was bugging the crap out of me too, it's why I took a hiatus last summer. But I've been back nigh on six months and there has been very little contorversy... inside the Viper Pit. And that's good. But now its time to rebuild, and let's not just build it up from new, but build it even better... 6 Million Dollar Man better. That's what I'm talking about. If I land you three, former Cobra's will come out of the woodwork. And mark my words Rader and Junior will be among the first. I'm making it known here. My current Avatar is my Bat Signal. It will remain lit until Batman rejoins the team. I need someone to compliment my Lobo... And he's just the right 'Bastich' for the job. If I land him, and bring back Dusty for another round... Then DD you have to come back too. What do you say? Let's return the Viper Pit to where it belongs. I don't care about championship teams, I don't care about being on the front page. I just want to log in somewhere and say howdy to my boys. I know you do too, it's why you keep coming back here, to check and see if any of them are around. Well lets stop wishing and start acting. Let's stop being elusive and be found where the folks we miss the most will be looking for us. Right F'n here! 'nuff said. Last edited by Night Viper 143; 05-30-2010 at 12:36 PM.. |
