I like to think that the Avali's choice of weaponry and tactics are considered "unsporting." That they don't have much of a predominant "honor" system from before they became space-faring, and therefore have difficulty understanding other's ideas of "war" or combat. That is, if they care.
The only conflict they have had extensive experience with has been of the "kill animals to eat them" variety, and therefore don't give two sub-zero shits about "warrior's death," or "undue suffering", etc. The most "glory" they associate with it is simple interest: "Noice, how many railgun slugs did it take to make his skull do that?"
Like, a Klingon would challenge a 'Vali to a 1 v 1 duel of honor, and get mad when said 'Vali is backed up by their pack. Or instead of exchanging broadsides in an epic dreadnought battle, they flit around with stealth/drone swarms and gradually wear down the enemy defenses.
Like their aerogel swords, which are, in the world of sword metaphors, jagged, splintery broken bottles. Unorthodox, but leaves nasty wounds, which is a bonus.
TL;DR Avali don't care if you think it's unfair. It works, and your rules suck.
Ryujiin, if I'm wrong, feel free to flip this table-load of idiocy. I'm trying to get ideas going, NOT establish a canon that isn't mine.

I hope you guys realize that this place doesn't talk about lore it's more of a slow chat room than anything.
Though don't let that stop you if you want to lore chat. There are better places though.

YDH is a Starbound machinima creator who used the avali in his machinima and already knows this. Cereal however is new as far as I know and hadn't been told that "Avali nexus" is an artifact title currently.
However if it were to once again reclaim it as more than an artifact title this site may see more members who stay. Hmm.
Hello to you YDH, haven't seen you in a bit again. This a sign of a new update on your channel at all?

Hey. Yes, I'm currently in the middle of the long, boring part of making a machinima episode: arranging recorded dialogue into coherent scenes that I can use to match visuals. Making progress, but no ETA yet.

However, I do think yes if this was the real official avali forum that it might be more popular but I'm not sure how we would even get there.
I think it would help to be more popular though. Them maybe we could set course to really fixing this place up

I don't think we have a strong enough base to do so but, if you decide to go ahead.(05-05-2017, 01:48 AM)YDH Wrote: [ -> ]Hey.

After talking with numerous folks about the actual work part of things. And listening to explanations of it. I have a general idea about how soul-draining that part can be. And an appreciation for those who are willing to carry through with it. Glad to hear about progress being made. Hope everything goes well.

The thing is, this site has no real focus on the avali overall anymore. (or at least not enough of one to outdo other titles, as there has been more talk of world of tanks and other vehicular war sims than avali over the past year+ by far) As the mod this was primarly acclimate to is no longer around. And as has been pointed out before. The newer avali mod is apparently not the same thing. Overall it leads to this site no longer being the "avali" nexus, it is simply the "Old community Nexus" . It is an artifact title as such, even if it wouldn't take much to make that no longer the case so it would become acclimate to it's title once more. Until that happens though. Add to that, the only reason it's still the avali nexus as a name right now is due to a cross between laziness, and respect for the past (nastalgia). Otherwise it was almost going to be changed to only "The Nexus".
