Could have posted loads of SS with Eclipse/Conquest and other hibs lying as a nice carpet, will make some next time specially for u-_- And it seems to me that u have forgotten to mention the numbers of hibs around when u saw 8 dead d0rfs/k0bbies:p Tho my respect goes to NP and Eclipse coz they seem to always avoid major zerg and prefer moving as 1FG:great:

nuff said, everyone does it now or whatever it is, its just annoying but I dont mind, if it happens I just go somewhere else and ignore :)

I could post a few pics of MM "inspecting" the floorwork too. :p

Let's just agree that we have great fights and this 'dick measuring' will get you nowhere. ;)

This is THE way to lag forward, it doesn't happen every time, but it does work.

And especially Walker/Pbuck are accused of this, because they lead groups usually (= autorun) and stop to cast using /face (= chance to lag forward)

If you think people do it in any other way, you're totally WRONG.

Edlina: ROFLMAO, you are really sad of losing to them aren't you? So now that you can't beat them in-gme you try to beat them with reputation on a forum?

He's completely correct. Both Walker & Pbuck lead their groups round on autorun. They spot some mids and hibs and they slam face and wham looks like they are warping. Not sure if Hib/Mids usually have a caster leading the group but as Loch also said i'm a healer in Pbucks group a lot and he doesn't warp and in fact seems to be the number one target with usually 2 + mobs on him. Kind of sad that you have to come here Edlina and try and trash their reputations - maybe you should take a look at your own realm before whining about Alb's, last I checked you guys were not exactly topping the saints charts for not abusing cheats. Enchanter LoS bug, LW stun bug, amnesia bug, going through border keeps, radar accusations etc etc etc

Some more choice quotes I liked too;

Don't be silly Pbuck - We know you guys have the RR's to do great - aye teh insta win button is uber

Insults about Loch as well - one of nicest ppl I know so don't think so.

I played some around last night when I got bored of crafting.

If you run (dont need to autorun), stop, then cast immidiatly after, you get a "you move and interrupt your spell" message.

If you run (again, no need to autorun), /face, then cast immidiatly after, you can cast with no problem.

The question is now, is using /face to be able to cast right after you stop running a bug? Not really. Abuse? Well, maybe. There is actually NO REASON as a caster to /face someone at 1500 range. They just won't move out of sight. The only reason for using /face is to be able to cast immidiatly after stopping. And I don't think this is the cause of having the /face command in the game.

[IMO /face /follow /stick is all rather silly and should be completely removed :p]

The lag is probably just a side effect of pulling the emergency brake (/face) as the server obviously still think you are moving.
(EDIT: it is probably more like a side effect of /face+autorun)

My conclusion would be that there is nothing wrong with using /face to face an opponent. But to use /face a) as an emergency brake to be able to nuke faster than your opponent, or b) to create the lag shadow ahead of you to confuse your oppenent is abuse -imo-. And as I see it, /face is not really needed at 1500 range.
BUT I'm not really a rvr player (not much anyway, my 100K rps don't compare to Walkers :p) and maybe Walker and Pbuck got a good explanation why they use /face from this range. :)

The /face allowing you to stop and cast was actually put in by Mythic to allow casters to have a chance in RvR.

Prior to that RvR would usually consist of several 'You move and interrupt your cast!' messages followed by 'You have been killed by xxx!"
