PvP... not mindless ganking of greys

there's a difference

There's enough high levels to provide good fights, etc.

Why is there a need to gank lowbies? Just prevents more high levels for even fights

How would you like it if I followed you around for a night, and ganked you everytime your immunity went off? You wouldn't be able to touch me (PBT, body resist buff), whereas I could probably 2-3 hit you. Sounds like fun? No..didn't think so. Then again I find the idea of doing this mindlessly boring too, so maybe I am not one to ask.

PvP between nearly equal levels is good fun, PKing grey/green cons that don't threaten you is just petty, useless and probably boring.

i get fed up with lamos killing me, who are purple to me, just cos im pking or the dumb stupid lowbies who run about
/y "carefull pker is here"

i also dont like people xping who complain when i attack ... why the fuck should i let you xp ...? so you can get higher than me and then your guilds stronger than mine and when you decide to make my guild an enemy none of us can take you on cos your all 50 .... hmmm nahhh

everyone make a stealther and join Memento Mori
(which many people we kill do and people from the big guild make lowbie stealtehrs just to join us cos we have fun ! which the big guilds forge me thinks((not ganking grey kinda "fun")))
the original and best All Stealther Guild who although we all one day plan to be 50, see no reason in getting there to quick and are actually enjoying the pvp server as its sposed to be

fyi:
PVP does not mean PKing, PKing is a form of PVP.

The PVP server offers lot of possibilities, but then again, it requires an effort from you and goa...

For example, you can do tournaments like:
- Last man standing
- Competitions for groups of 2vs2 3vs3 ...


But if you enjoy killing people, giving them xp deaths, so they can't level and you can, I think you are the biggest noobie of all.
Cause eventually the new player flow will stop and all thats left on the server are pwrlvled characters by the big guild and lvl50 groups camping every popular spot. Which will result in the smaller guild players eventually quiting and moving to a normal shard again. And what will you do when you run out of targets? Whine?

You can't have your cake and eat it too... If we hear reports of people killing guildies, and we're in the vicinity we'll go and take care of business, even if the perps are 30 lvls below us. If you don't want to get punished for killing people, stick to guildless people.

As I said on another thread...

"I didn't stay long in Cam because

a) It became quite apparent very quickly how things would go and I didn't want to stick around to see it happen

and

b) Any chance of it becoming the type of pvp server that could have been fun for all was never going to happen because of the silly "If you don't like getting ganked by purps go play somewhere else" mentality. Shame really.

Oh and as for it being a "hardcore" pvp server, can't really see it myself. The old UO felucca made Camlann look like a kiddies playground. In those days, the real pvpers showed their skill by beating equal or high level players through ability and tactics in a game that was truely designed for pvp. People who think that they are serious pvpers because they play on Cam are (in my humble opinion of course) deluding themselves "

DAOC was not designed as a pvp game. It was designed as an xp and rvr game. RvR game mechanics, with a few tweaks, do not make it pvp. Camlann is a joke as far as being a true pvp server goes. Alot of the people on Camlann who delude themselves into thinking they are good pvpers would not have lasted 5 minutes in the original UO (i.e. pre-trammel). They would have spat their dummies out because they couldn't pwn and would have gone play quake. There may be exceptions, but I suspect that true pvpers will get bored with Camlann and leave. They'll just find it too lame. That will leave the kiddies in charge of the house...

One of the main reasons why I don't play PvP. Annoying when you're fighting a yellow or blue con and some purp interferes for no reason at all or because you're beating the other guy and he yells for help... lol :rolleyes:

pvp is a brilliant honey trap, it keeps all the lame $£%£ off the main servers since they to busy jerking off killing greys or low cons in pairs or groups saying how its xp, i played beta pvp and 90% of deaths were due to pairs or purps killing while i was xping, save the bullshit about its all pvp no excuse for being lame, other type of hero was a red or purp con with a low blue healer in tow. Best thing they done apart from si so far is the pvp server. Less morons on main server thanks to it.
Never complain about a good thing.

camlann is a grief server. PvP games i know had some mechanics in it, that keeps everyone from being killing greys. I like PvP, but then in my opinion there should be some kind of punishment for killing players. So not everyone does it. Atm this isnt a real PK server as that normally means going in for a kill that is actually rewarding in honour. Killing greys isnt, atleast not for me :).
Unless this server population does something to make it in some way less rewarding to kill lowbies, than the only ppl on this server will be the ppl who just like slaughtering other people or like seeing ppl getting angry and finally drive them to go back to normal server.

I think that isnt, because you are green. But because you are an enchanter :p.

it isnt that you are owning everyone :p. It is that enchanters are THE pk'ers in pvp. They are highly annoying and there are WAY to many off them :). I dont know how it is now, but when i played there was a difference between killing enchanters or other people. Chain killing enchanters no matter what level is lame, but understandable. Others characters is just lame :p

Go xp in deserted areas like Skona Ravine and Cornwall. Been there a couple of times and never seen anyone. Got a mate who's been in Skona Ravine 1 month now almost everyday, and he's never seen another char.
