Insults

[xxManiacxx]

that's a good point

if someone in gank group #456 /send "heya, having a 8v8 fight here, would you mind not joining in - we just want to test our skills and stuff without outside assistance" or words to that effect I'd be far more inclined to stand out of the way and watch than if they /send "fs n00bs don't add!"

it´s been done lots of times. In the end ppl do get fed up with being polite. Why should only 1 part be polite and respect the way that person wants to play?

 

[Malcolm]

After years of playing the game, or even just a couple of months of rvr, people should know who the gank groups are and avoid adding on their fights.

Hmm a fight...

...where's my list of known GG members?...

...found it...

...now are any of these people on it?....

...damn I'm dead and no they weren't.

 

[DocWolfe]

Reminds me of the good old phrase...

Sticks and stones will break my bones but words on the Intenet will never hurt me...

 

[Haggus]

Mani come on IRC I need you to host something

No point really, not that you should scream offensive things that can you get you banned, but with that scenario you just gonna get a pm about you not paying his subs and that you are a rphorny twat.
And 5 min later you don't "add" on his 1on1 fight with a alb and you get pmed "FFS you are so rphorny why didn't you help me?!?!?!"

I am a bit confused here then.

Does that mean that opted groups of 8 should not attack groups of 7 or less?

Or does your principles only apply to another opted group of 8.

I see threads from other suggesting that 8 v 8 guilds play their game and should be left to it, in which case perhaps you should remain in Agra and never attack solo / non-opted groups?

If you want instanced group fights maybe you should try WoW?

I have played in an opted group, but can't say I enjoyed it that much. Open warfare (without buff bots) is the game I enjoy, hence why I will avoid Agra.

 

[Eruptix]

dont be so lame to leech from 8v8 fights then,and you wont be insulted

frankly,if your retarded enough to leech and add,then you deserve to be insulted in my book,you provoked it.

We tend to leave solo/duo people alone, depending who it is. If its a guy who just zerged us, sure we will probably kill him. If its a guy who obviously ran past us the last fight without adding, we'll spare him and even sometimes give them a friendly emote. 7 people are fair game and no GG is expecting "perfect conditions" all the time either. If we have a LD, get attacked by another GG and we get wiped silly, most often the result is "we had a ld :<" in irc and the answer is ":<", we go back and have a new fight. We mostly roam in Agramon as it is too, and if you are running with 8 people its your job to make it suitable, if its not perfect but acceptable then you accept the fact that you might die because of setup, but seriously its not hard to make a group of 2 clerics, 1 pala/friar, and a sorc, especially since most people have several classes nowadays. Getting people who can actually play their classes, well, thats a completely different question and has nothing to do with the setup

+ WoW sucked

Now that was your 5 cents...... and from the bad language i can tell you are one of the " You muct all obey or get insulted".
Not very convincing.

Absolute rot.

Playing the game as it was intended shouldn't make you subject to abuse from people who make up their own rules for the game.

That includes being called a "retard" on FH too

 

[Vladamir]

Do you in some way get high on all the namecalling? And try to stay topic Jjuraa.... we cant make lines from a game to RL. I do lots of things ingame I wouldent do RL. I think that goes for most of the ppl in here.

I will be the one to give you the braking news..... this is a game!
If it was ment to be 8v8 im sure we would have had some kind of instants for that. We dont..... so it MUST be a realm v realm- game.

/mum

Does it not irritate you when a mob calls for help and gets you killed?.

There are different ways people play this game, and although it's hard to believe, some people enjoy a fair fight! omg ohnoes.

People need to learn to respect each other's playstyles tbh.

 

[Bahumat]

The only ones who bring up the RP argument all the time are the adders actually, I argue because adders are ruining my fun, NOT my "fictious rewards" but the actual enjoyment of playing the game. If I was playing a game of hockey for example, and just some random guys decide to jump in on EITHER side I'd "whine" at them yeah.

yes but its a war not a hockey game.

 

[Kharok Svark]

And I am sure that goes for all.

If someone adds, ask them not to, asume it's a one off and return to the next fight.

At least with Agramon there is some way of distinguishing the 8 person groups from the 'real' RvR.

But, like a mob CFH, if you get pickup add, take it as part of the challenge, sure you might get wiped, but you might win too and the chance that you might get added on, or get into a 3 way fight can make it a little more interesting.

I am sure we all have many ways of playing and many of us can discuss them openly, it's just a shame that some people who cannot debate with others resort to swearing (but it's also kinda funny too)

 

[Haggus]

Everyone is entitaled to there own opinion.

RvR is RvR but i'd also prefer it if people didn't add on 8v8 group action

You sir have just totally completely pwned each and EVERYONE of those anti-adders ...

Respect to you... repped.

 

[Behmoth]

Maybe ppl play the game for the fg vs fg combat?

And that Agramon might not be the best place for a solo ranger?

just because some people make it their game 8Vs8 doesn't mean that is how the game is meant to be played. Its certain people who deem this to be "their game" and everyone is supposed to play it their way.

Stealthers were meant to take out eg a mage in a group disappear and roll on to their next target if the mages group couldn't find the stealther good luck for the stealther ect ect. They add cos stealthers are supposed to add, as frustrating as it is; it's a part of the game.

And agramon is part of a pvp area so why not go there and get a few kills and a few deaths. Maybe a hard place to get a kill but its freedom of choice where to die/kill in this game.

Moronrly

 

[Bracken]

I get angry...

Then get help. It's a f*cking computer game. If you get so pissed off over some pixels on a screen that you want to hurl abuse at someone then it's time to kick your chair back from the desk and go take a walk. Maybe go down the local, grab a pint and sit and chat with a few of the blokes. Oh and while you're at it, see what happens when you gob off at someone in the real world, you know, away from behind the safety of a pc.

never read that it was intended in the game that leechers show no respect and ruin my game experience?

the leecher IS the one harming me,harrasing me with his actions and showing lack of respect to ongoing battles.if he choose to do so,then I find it normal that the ppl who are affected by this get angry.its no reason to insult their mothers,but it happens when ppl get offended.

the leecher IS the one who is ruining the game experience..
so in the end,YOU ruin someone's game experience hence why you shouldnt be surprised to draw hate

 

[Bracken]

Sometimes it has failed for different reasons

I love that bit. Whenever a "we never add" group adds or rolls a soloer they've always got a ready made excuse.

"The driver made us do it"

"Jonnyhotcock was close to ding!"

"The soloer might have added on us if we didn't kill him!"

"Those 3 brehons added on us last year!"

"The cat shit on my keyboard and forced down the nuke button!"

technically he is not leeching, he is helping his realm mate kill their enemy.

Erm no but maybe we come over a hill and stumble right into a fight?

As a said. A leecher/adder/zerger will never know how it is.

 

[evzy]

Yay another whine thread about adding etc that I can't be bothered to read through...

I will always add - don't moan if you see me adding as I have now warned you - if you don't like it, run away

 

[Coldbeard]

i like the fact its war yet people would rather watch their realm mate get killed so they can then do the last 10% dmg to get the rp's

imagine if you were at war and some crazy bastard had stabbed you once in the leg, some random ally is standing there waiting and he watches you get stabbed in the face, just as your falling over abouts to die he then kills the crazy bastard.

It is a friggin video game and not a damn war? Cant even be compared.

 

[Haggus]

It's a shame in movies you don't see people leaving fights.

Maybe if we put that in it would be an incentive for all the non OP groups to not add?

 

[Malcolm]

technically he is not leeching, he is helping his realm mate kill their enemy.

indeed and if he's an RPer telling him to leave an enemy alone would be ruining his game experience

 

[scorge]

isnt war a game, played by politicians?

 

[Coldbeard]

Why? are things like honour and being noble ( i.e leaving 1v1 fights and the concept of fair play) not any part of the roleplaying then?

 

[Bracken]

Personal view: people can play however they want; I'll never whine/flame about people "adding", but I also will try not to do it myself if I'm driving a group.

You must spread some more reputation etc...
