Explanation of Terms

[mang109]

So , Ive been playing Disco for a few months now, and am fairly settled into a faction. However I see a few terms being used over and over again here, and im not 100% sure on what they mean - although some of them may seem obvious.

Id love to know the accepted defenitions of

"Lolwutter"

"Powertrading"

"Powergaming"

Thanks

Xar, that's metagaming. Powergaming is about "getting the high score".

Just go play the game and have fun dammit.

all in all the conclusion is that disco doesn't need antagonist factions, it doesn't need phantoms, it doesn't need nomads, it doesn't need coalition and it doesn't need many other things, no AIs, the game is hijacked by morons to confuse the game with their dickwaving generic competition games mixed up with troll-of-the-day.
