Just because Legends is dead doesn't mean FPS is going to die.

FPS Will never be doomed, accounts get upgraded same with player rankings.

... Do you mean Legends doomed as in being shut down, or Legends doomed as in no accounts being able to be upgraded?
If its the first then nothing will be able to be done about it, but if it is the
second one, a good thing may happen. With drops still going on in Legends and the Legends forum very much alive, eventually all the owners of the gold accounts will quit, while new grey accounts being made. Then, the game would be greys only. This would be a place where there is no grey/gold battles and thus would be a much more fair world than FPS for greys.

This site can and has and will run for years without Legends. Digisonline could shut down completely, and this site will continue to operate AS IS, as it has done for the previous year plus with no Seed.
The fact that during Seeds awayness this site continued to operate fine, while Legends slowly fell into chaos proved that.
The difference between the two is simple. On Legends there is Seed and Seed alone to do things, while here there are at least 3 people who can actively update accounts and maintain the site.
SeeD has been manually upgrading accounts lately, so it's not going to be a grey only server, but the opposite, we've had to deal with many noob golds lately. >.<
Anyways, I doubt FPS will die anytime in the near future.

FPS will eventually become independent, unless Legends returns. End of story. FPS will be what TAO was originally meant to be.
Such a great strategy game TAO is, yet one day it may very well be one day forgotten. The trick is to have this game advertised, once it expands of course. Right now the only places one would find TAO from is from a friend or via www.addictinggames.com. Otherwise, TAO will keep on flourishing without Legends.

As I mentioned before, this site has been independent for some time.

when was the site ever dependent on legends in the first place?
had it's own setup, pay system, unique features, and community pretty much from the get go

The thing is, SeeD gave deep trust in Tuff to have alot of power to fix many things, but you most likely know what Tuff did, and that's why SeeD doesn't let anyone else have that much power anymore, so if SeeD is gone, Legends is pretty screwed over, but the only way FPS would die is if suddenly no one felt like being gold anymore, and they made no money.

And if that happened, then the server itself would simply be shut off.
Legends is kept open due to upgrades there, as well as the portion of money Seed receives from this site. But if Seed does lose all interest in Legends and decides to let it go, then the only choices would be to allow someone else to run it, hand it over to Bills to run or shut it down.
All three sound mildly unpleasant.

Sure.
But does Legends have "staff?" No. Any one with power that can do anything? No. FPS survives because of its staff being on. They control the servers and make sure everything runs smooth everyday. They are on every day.
Good luck in Legends.

And Uni is simply one person who likes to sound like heshit knows more than heshit does.
The fact that all this crap happened to Legends, and nothing even hiccupped here shows exactly how well this site can survice without Legends.
The real question is, what would Legends do f this site shut down?? After all, it is the money from here that pays the bills.

I disagree with most of you. Legends is our beta test server. What happens there eventually happens here, supposedly. Legends dies, we die.

But you're wrong. Legends WAS the test server, yes. But there is no need for a test server to a finished product.

You started that sentence with the word but, so you're wrong. Legends was the test server, eh? So it no longer is? We are the real servers. Since legends was the beta server and no longer is, we are the real servers however will soon no longer be the real servers. Soon, we'll be fake like legends. Is that what you're trying to say?

There are maybe 2 people over there who are responsible, mature, and trustworthy enough for such a position (oxymoron comes to mind) without being completely biased.

What the crap are you talking about!? If you're gonna put words in my mouth, at least note which words you're talking about. All this vague reference to things I've never said is really ridiculous.
If legends dies, FPS stands - Jeffery is completely correct in this. When Seed falls off the face of the earth and legends goes under, FPS is fine. I've spoken to serg about this mildly - we are completely independant from Legends as far as our survival goes. The only thing we rely on is updates from Seed, which can happen whether Legends is dead or alive.

as long as you exist, FPS is most certainly doomed.

If Legends disappears, there won't be a test server for the game anymore. That's the only thing that will happen related to FPS. I don't think it would have any significant effect on updates or anything FPS.
Of course, all us Legends noobs will be coming over here, oh what will you all do? :p

FPS noobs will flame Legenders, and legends noobs will flame FPSers. Everyone else will either ignore it or point out the stupidity.

Of course, all us Legends noobs will be coming over here, oh what will you all do? :pKEep the awesome ones such as yourself, and put the rest of the ego in its place. :)
My guess is that the really power-hungry ones will just get too frustrated here and leave.

Yes, Legends is the test server but wouldn't bills use his brains and make another server the same as legends just on the FPS login screen and make more money and then FPS will still have a test server...easy way really.
