    Default Hosting

    I am currently hosting a top-10 allaince on server 156 and i decided to host because i hadn't hosted in awhile and thought it might be fun. Yeah, right.

    This made me wonder, why do people like to host, and although some people are perfect for the position, others like myself are decidely not. So I was thinking, a fair amount of people here are or have probably been hosts at one time or another. So why did you want to become a host?

    Reasons that are gimmies and i do not wish to see in the answers:
    power
    power
    power
    power

    thanks for your input

    Easy power lol! Well that and I like teaching people the game and people are more inclined to listen to someone in a position of authority lol. Plus I wanted to see if I could succeed at it as a personal challenge to myself. I'd never hosted before and wanted to see what I was good at and apparently whatever I did worked as we grew from 2 ppl at first to the number 1 allaince on the server lol. Also theres the added bonus of no stupid rules since you make them or change them. No diplo you dont agree with because you arranged it all. And its a good way to meet new people as you get all sorts of people whispering you lol. Plus you have the ability to deal with drama soon as it comes up I always hated watching it build up and explode lol.

    I'MMMMMMMM BAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!

    Maybe if I had free time and didn't have alot committed to another server then yes I would I find when I play multiple servers all get neglected a little bit which wouldn't be fair to the people I was hosting lol.

    I was Vice Host and Host of my alliance for quiet a long time, till me and my entire alliance all retired at the same time.

    I initially didn't want any type of leadership position, but my alliance was democratic and they wanted me to step up. I embraced the position and enjoyed it for one reason... I am a people person and love to talk and listen, and being a host you are always talking to your alliance and to other alliances. The ability to listen and make every person in the alliance feel like they are just as important as the next was very important to moral and for diplomacy. In the end it was a great experience. I loved my alliance and they loved me. Would I ever do it again... not likely because that would mean returning to the game.

    I've been doing that for 2 year now... I always post in pink. It's just what I do, ask anyone from N1. I tell people if they don't like it, then don't read what I write
