No soloing is allowed but organised dueling isnt, biiiig difference.

I have to agree here tbh ... as that is the kinda thing that can ruin a server taken too far , with far too much politics to get into :(

I do remember on shade once being in the situation of having 8 alb soloers all surrounding my shade all waiting their turn to duel me ... i killed 6 in 6 duels before cerishas powned me(including some silly charging rr5 merc who jumped me after a duel) ... lush rps ;)

Why do people always try to bring these issues down to a conflict of playstyles? This isn't about zerging vs soloing or 'skillz' vs 'noobz'. If I see a bunch of players standing around in a circle farming each other for RPs then I will break it up. It's not allowed and it never has been. If you want to solo then nobody is stopping you from doing that - not me nor any E&E. This kind of organised duelling will always get shut down if I hear about it. If you want to solo then do so, roam and fight. If you don't want to get caught up in the crossfire of me breaking up duelling circles then make sure you avoid them and don't for example hang around waiting your turn because as far as I'm concerned in this situation if you fly with crows then you're a crow and you'll take your licks along with all the other RP farmers there.

so lets say its 8vs8 there is 1 fg standing against maybe 2 from the other 8 man group the 2 people sit down and thats rp farming then why dont get the a warning or ban ?

I am currently eating a cheese sandwich... anyone else????

Just ate Koka Noodle(Spicy curry)+Walkers Prawn Cocktail+Doritos Tangy Cheese and am sipping my pint of Blackcurrant Cordial ... Life is good :D

P.S. Dont ban me please Requiel as im just giving an example here and tbh i also disagree with duel area's as like Sneakys said ... It does reduce the game to a freeshards level and goes totally against what makes daoc fun+unpredictable :D

idiot.

there have been other threads about these situations and the reply has always been "duels are allowed as long as people dont bring rezzers".

2 guys fight, 1 of them dies and releases = fair game.

so what changed that?

There were rezzers there. Did you have a point to bring? In any case we have continually made it clear that these duelling rings will be broken up. Anything that looks like prearranged duelling will be shut down, if it's very blatant and it appears that there's crossrealming going on then bans may be in order as well.

There are plenty of legitimate ways to play the game. This isn't one of them.

So ppl dueling each other and releasing is rpfarming but the shity i-RvR where everyone can earn 100k+ in no time its not. You are just f'cking up ppl fun by being a lame CSR imo. I bet u didnt even played DAoC as a customer at all since OF days where almost everyone was playing by the "if its red, its dead" rule.

It is just a game yeah.
One with an ever shrinking pool of paying customers who are trying to squeeze a little entertainment and enjoyment out of something that costs them £16 a month

Bad form :(

Yes you made it very clear, thats why this is the first time anyone heard of this happening, while it has been said on several occasions that it is ok as long as no 3rd party program was used to organize it? Thank you for having been so clear in the past!

Are you actually trying to fuck the server up even more or are you GM´s just too blind to see that that is exactly what you are doing?

Right so my rr2 ranger who is 50 bow 40+ stealth rest in path for a larf. (used to be cookie cutter but couldnt win any fights vs anyone else)

SO i go across towards crim tower across the bridge (stealthed) i spot someone fighting i go hey i can get a few rps might ding me rr2l4 or somthing like that .

as soon as i start hitting the enemy the so called realm friend breaks off attacking and stands and watches me die.

Both of the people dueling are far higher realm rank than me how is a rr2 or lower meant to get realm points without adding.

You roll a fullgroup of friends and even try rvring on dyvet at the moment and your killed. Your only targets are soloers and small duos. BUT as soon as they die someone logs over and flames you for being a noob.


And this is what happens with new players to the game, there have been a few ive helped start and they hit 50 go to emain and chain die or are flamed and leave.

I would rather take 100 new players over 1 bitter rr5+ leetist.

why not go to HW or something then? surely the fun of playing with the zerg pinging arrows into shit loads of stuff is more fun than semi afking waiting for a fight to start then running in and spoiling it for the holy RP?

I have a 50 bow 46 PF ranger too, it used to be a blast to play gunning people down n the zerg, and far more productive, both in your precious RPs and defeating the enemy realms. As it is you lot seem to gain your entertainment at the cost of others. What will you do when even the soloers dont bother any more?

if u wanna play like that, go insta rvr no1 cares if u gank up on eachother, in that senario u r trying to ruin 2 ppl's fun, and ur "realm m8" desides to give the other guy a chance to fight off u as the attacker, so if u cant stand dieing dont try to engage a fight to start with...

I ran out on the crau W bridge and abotu 700 units from it towards the dropoff, saw shitloads of blue con guards and got lobbed in the air and killed. Then being told afterwards I was participating in prearranged duels, it was such a bunch of bollox.

But then again we should trust GOA to know how to manage a community.

Your own fault for running around crauchon, thats where cheaters and x-realmers and rp-farmers roam!

hahaha, classic. adder got owned using the "I can't compete at rr2" excuse. rps are so damn quick now you can get to a good rank in no-time, and even at low rank, you are still able to compete aslong as your char and playstyle is proper ;)

Well it was an example but just goes to show the maturity of the posters on freddyshouse.

Bet none of you have a stats / title screen that is 100% solo kills.

Either way my point stands if your just going to get realm points foryourself and not help out your realm mates you might as well just leave your realm and go play with your buddies on the other realm your rp powerleveling.
