RvR rules of DaoC according to the forumtrolls

[Basic_X]

Something i found on VNboards, kinda fitting isnt it?


1. Never attack any enemy with numbers less than yours. Even if you allow only a matching number of groupmates to fight while the rest stand and watch, you are still "zerging" and therefore suck.

2. It is ok to attack a larger number than you have in your group because if you win you are "leet" and if you lose they were zerging and suck anyway.

3. Never stay in one area, i.e. "camp", even if that's where all the action is. It is better to run pointlessly around the island or other empty areas of the frontier. If you stay in towers or bridges for any amount of time, even if you are overwhelmingly outnumbered and will undoubtedly die if you move outside, you are a bridge/tower humper and therefor suck. It is only ok to play near a tower if another group has spent the time to open it in an effort to draw enemies to where they are and then you kill any incoming defenders, therefore depriving the tower-takers of any benefit from the effort they have put forth.

4. If anyone else is playing the same game on the same server and happens to run into the same area as you, then you are zerging and suck.

5. If you ever die, you have no skill and suck.

6. If you fail to use all your abilities, you suck.

7. If you use all your abilities you are "ra dumping" and suck.

8. If you come across two groups from another realm fighting and attack them, you are aj-ing and suck.

9. If you come up to a battle in progress, before attacking, you must stop and count the numbers on both sides to determine whether it is 8v8 or if one side is outnumbered. If you wait to let the fight end and then your realm mates lose, then you are an asshole for not helping out and suck if you then kill a weakened enemy group. If you don't attack the weakened group and they then cc you and kill some of you, then you suck. If you go ahead and add in to the fight, then you are zerging and suck. If you simply leave, then you are a pussy and also suck.

10. Never run away, even if you are outnumbered and have no chance to survive. You should "respect" your opponent by dying. Or else you suck.

 

[aika]

lol, quality

 

[>.< Pooned]

hahahahaha marvelous!

 

[illu]

hehe class.

The only rules I play by are:
a) have fun
b) kill lowbies 1 or 2 times then let them do what they want (otherwise you are simply griefing them)
c) leave fullgroups alone 99% of the time, unless they are breaking RvR insta-porting
d) kill cheeky casters who have either /rofl or /laugh at me, over and over until they learn their lesson :>

Oli - Illu

 

[Punishment]

a.) Have Fun
b.) Show people who go to the trouble of travelling to your frontier the respect they deserve by not ganking them on low hp and/or unstealthing them for a group to kill (People who take the piss are excluded ... Hello Imco/Dmoskus/Corlone/aim/blaid/tipp/Makkis/Galheidrh or whatever etc )
c.) Try not to ability dump on anyone below rr4 and lay off them if you have killed more than 2 times.
d.) Stay out of fullgroup rvr (People who steamroll me in anything above a 4 man are marked as fair game thereafter in any/all situations)

 

[raid]

[Straef]

In what way is it fitting? If you think it has had anything to do with duvet over the last year then you are way off the mark, and this just looks like another inflammatory post, after we can agree that most of us have found some middle ground, shame it was all too late.

 

[censi]

theres 2 rules I try and stick by.

a) dont add on a competative rvr encounter. 1v1's are easy to determine. But FG V FG as well.

b) Dont perma doorstep.

If you swap "most" for "some" you'll be closer to the mark just read the whine threads you still get daily here on FH RvR...

However I'd say rule number 1 is:

However you play - someone is bound to disagree.

i might be abit off with what's included in the time span ''over the last year'' but i would say that it's not that far off.

Or someone is bound to suck, keeping it in line with the original vnboards thread oO

True, but think there is a lot more tolerance. Important thing to keep in mind is that people post all sorts of crap on this forum which 1/2 the time I dont think they even agree with to the extent they overstate it.

Take manish earlier, he said I should fick off somewhere else, now I cant really believe he meant that, just as the marriage counciling was starting to work.

Other thing of course is that things might be better because most of the really hardcore gg's have left (NFD never were part of that lot), we even got kicked out of the eclipse alliance many moons ago.

 

[ebenezer]

hehe yeh....saw this one on the Vn boards as well, was quite funny

 

[Gear]

Excellent, reped

 

[lpep]

omg copied from our guild rvr rules !!!! we all suck in any case...

You could be right in game - FH is still the flamefest drivel that it's always been but it's been a long time since I've seen in-game screenies of "omgz he called me xyz for adding!" or whatever.

 

[Flimgoblin]

nah that'd be rule 2:

However you play, you suck.

Which I've been following for 5 years now...

 

[censi]

fh isnt too bad tbh... peeps are pretty open minded, slightley cynical.

can be a bit ott but its all fun. lots of sensible peeps like me here as well to keep things on track

very nice point. i have to say i often felt like a devils advocate who tried to defend peoples right to do stuff like AC raiding, even long after i myself stopped considering it a valid tool. people have the `right` to AC, to add, to zerg, but they should take into consideration it migth not be a wise or nice thing to do considering the number of players left and the amount of grievance it seems to make.

some people feel griefed faster than others too

it seems that when player numbers dropped, they (the solo and fg competitive players) were the first to be affected and the first to leave.

as a semi casual zerger, the dropping number of players doesn`t seem to have affected me to the same degree. if you just want fights and are not too picky about them, there is no problem. if you only want 1 type of fights, there is a problem.

prety much depending upon someones expectations the server can be called anything from `been dead for half a year` to `still good for the forseeable future`.

not true. i heard from reliable sources that the game is dead and there is no fun to be had anywhere.
