We need to stop saying "CE". In 3 years nobody will even know what the heck that is.

We need to start saying "ergy" or "e" or "energy". Why, cuz i dunno it's annoying to see ppl saying wtb ce. I dont know what the heck that is anymore

CE has been Rendered almost Pointless now.

It's sole purpose is to buy Orbs.

@Broxaim The Royal Jelly is

@Broxaim
The Royal Jelly is NEVER, at ANY point in the game called "Jelly King". RJP is the official name of the set of levels, "The Sovereign Slime" is the name of the corresponding mission.
Firestorm Citadel is the official name of the set of levels, "King of Ashes" is the corresponding mission.

It's completely different.

Oh, Vog this again. Those of us who are left in 3 years will be in an elitist club where we call it CE and no one knows what we're talking about. Like when we talk about the Tortodrone (which I have seen) and the giant green jelly thing ( which I haven't) and the Kattywampus (???). And noobs say "who is Vanaduke" and "The core hasn't always been open".

Ugh... why can't people realize

Energy and crystal energy(CE) are the SAME DAMN THING!!! Have you ever read the CE description? The July 30th patch notes?

They have the same properties, thus the terms are synonymous. The removal of the "C" from CE was because there was no need to differentiate between two types of energy, crystal and mist. CE is still technically correct, new players can say "energy" and it will be understood, while the vets will say CE and knights will (hopefully) still be around who know what they mean. And besides, no one really sells CE on the streets or in trade chat anymore .

CE is used to but Steam games and Steam games only, in my eyes.

So....

If there's no need to differentiate between the two and the only reason it was/is called ce was to do so... I don't follow. But also I think it ME and CE merged into just E, if that makes sense. And OOO no longer calls it CE, so "technically" it is incorrect. No matter how many ppl call something the wrong name, its still the wrong name.

well

I was talking of properties and logic, not the official OOO term. I suppose it is incorrect by OOO terms, but to the general public(who are really the people talking about ce) it can still be CE

Usevnevnsixfivfor possibly suffers from LCD (Lonely Craze Disorder), where as the victim "sees" players on the computer monitor and starts up a disqussion.

BTW

I remember Fallconn saying something on another thread saying that he has a punch with whoever told (insert person's name that I can't remember here) to stop saying "CE"'s name on it, so I sent Fallc an in-game mail linking back to here, and Utrex got what he deserved :P

I don't deserve anything -- every player deserves the right to not know what CE is. That horrible word is to be unspoken.

@Utrex

Well, next time someone says "CE" to a newbie, we'll just tell them the truth and tell them there was mist back then, elevators used to run on energy, and today's energy back then was called Crystal Energy.

While we're at it, can we say SOLs or Sparks of Life instead of just sparks? The Forge, Grim, and Primal Sparks were here first.

You probably don't have to

You probably don't have to fret too much. As the population of Spiral Knights slowly fills with players from after this patch who are saying "energy", it'll grow on us and become a habit. Eventually we'll all be using E instead of CE.
