Is Space Empires IV the Most Addictive Game Ever?

[Atrocities]

Hmmm... According to you, shouldn't God be playing Tribes and not SEIV?

No, for when I played Tribes, I was a GOD!

The game lost its appeal after all the exploits and cheaters started playing. (Kindread Clan being amoung the most prolithic cheaters I have ever had the misfortune of fragging.)

I spent nearly a year playing Tribes exclusively between bouts of BOTF, and was regarded as one of the best players in the game. When T2 came out, I like many other vetrans moved on. T2 was a far more demanding game, and when I choose to play it, I often finish in the top 3. But since no one else I knew was realy playing it, I slowly lost interest in it. I returned to Tribes 1 and found it flooded with cheaters. I did just fine, but often became very angry at what I was seening. Finally I decided that no game should cause me stress, only pleasure, so I did the only thing I could do, I stopped playing it. And that is a decision I regret even to this day. But I won't go back. I can't not give into the beast. I refuse too. Tribes is evil. Evil. Damn it, where in the hell is my Tribes DISK?????
