Talk:The Jack Yocum

Hi there, just wanted to say : do you have to be so negative towards Zombie players? Going on about "zergs", "cheaters" and so on is pretty off, and especially as you're one of the biggest groups in the game (the Human side is in no way immune to those problems either, which you fail to mention.) If it wasn't for those of us playing Zombies you wouldn't have a game to play, and your page almost makes out like you're not even having much fun doing this, which is confusing.

By the way, you can restore as many "burgs" as you like, we'll still be there to tear them up once you've left. *grins* Seriously though, there's no need to generalize Zombie players so negatively. -- Xyu 09:14, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

- Thank you for writing. I don't spend alot of time on here, so this was my first chance to respond. I believe there is a misunderstanding here. We're not hating on zombies. Our page is in direct response to those players that specifically zerg cheat to try and help the zombies gain a foothold in a race where they already have all the advantages. Our page, comments, and activities are directed specifically towards that archetype...and certain individuals we've come across that do not like their untowards activites exposed. So it's geared to a very specific sect, and since this page was created it has admirably sent the necessary message. In short, when we see a zerger...or zerg group...in action, then you will see us fighting to good fight for the betterment of the survivors...and the game in general. And in fact, our team is the ultimate anti-zerg group. Especially so, given how easily a group of players using voice chat to coordiante live activites can be viewed as using nefarious tactics. Hence another reason I created this page.

And yes, I'm sure that every burg we restore will be destroyed in turn. The Survivor side is all about hit and run tactics, achieving objectives, and naturally survival, as zombies have the advantage of being inevitably unstoppable in the end. Anyway, I hope this cleared up the confusion, as we have no issue with zombie players in general. In fact, there will be times that our playerbase will be zombies...and play as such.See you out there. :)

• Also, I deleted the prior comments as they were simply unnecessarily negative. It is simple fact that the zombie side is far easier to level, and definitely stronger in general to play.

Nuff said. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by The Jack Yocum (talk • contribs) 26 July 2015.

Will you also attack survivor zergs? Or is your outrage, conditional? -- boxy 14:16, 29 July 2015 (BST)

-There is no outrage. That's a commonly inaccurate assessment though, so it's understandable. We're fine with live and let live. However, some players prefer to initiate a violent interraction, and can't let go with an eye for eye balance. That's their mistake, and poor choice. Simple as that. So yes, we attack all zergs. Usually, only if they bothers us first, or are in the way of our group agenda/goal we have at the time.

You don't have a link on your page to your forums, was just trying to get in contact with you about a going away party. Here's a link to our site: http://s14.zetaboards.com/Army_Control_Corps/index/ Come by and say hi, maybe we can get something going. --clanc43 ACC Diplomatic officer

Fact Check

I don't mean to give you too hard a time but your claim of being the only live action group to ever exist in Malton is a bit of a stretch. Survivor, PKer and various zombie groups have coordinated live either via voice or IRC chat for strikes, attacks or coordinated efforts since the beginning of the game. I do appreciate though that this may be the status quo for your group rather than a strategy for large pre-planned actions as it has been in the past. So, kudos to you for that as well as for your overall goals. In the end the more people playing the game and enjoying it increases the fun for all. --ШəəϨо ϨоЯЯλ (talk) 16:06, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

I don't want to knock you either, but some clarification regarding what "live action" means may be useful, since no matter how I tilt my head, it still sounds incorrect to me. I've personally participated in hundreds of real-time strikes that were coordinated via live chat with other players (as a survivor, PKer, and zombie). There are still a few groups that, at least up until recently, were engaging in daily, coordinated attacks. Blackmore 4(04) was a non-stop live action activity for the 20 or so of us who were in the building earliest, since we stayed in chatroom with each other around the clock for the entire duration of the siege. We've had other MMO groups join the game via Vent, TS, Skype, Google Hangouts, etc., as well as groups who conducted 100% of their activity while actively coordinating, such as *******.

All of which is to say, without some additional clarification, I don't think you could even claim to be the first one, let alone the only one, since this sort of stuff has been done for years and years and years.. —Aichon— 19:48, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

Don't burst their bubble Aichon. --Rapture (talk) 22:47, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

Lol. Rapture, it's not like that at all. It's a game, one used to pass the time while waiting to play other games, so just some hassle free fun. At least that's how I see it. I have asked others in the group, and seems to be the consensus. However, I did look back at the history of the fake profile about us, and even the user:Urban Sombrero. I think I may know who that was, and he was kicked out even before his posts on here, but I can't be sure since I don't talk to that person. But I digress.

And Aichon, while I've seen no other group advertise they are a live community, like our group, I believe the point is made. No harm in updating it for more accuracy. However, speaking of accuracy, there are a few points of contention I have as well. I'll have to bring that up next time I'm on here, and also make sure to follow the proper procedural channels. Maybe in the next couple days. We'll see, Keep fighting the good fight. Cheers --The Jack Yocum
