Pay attention to the daoc specific rules in particular.

.....interesting

I'm not gonna tell anyone I dinged RR3 on my ickle theurgy last night then

grats sollie!

"The rules have nothing whatsoever that says a solo player cannot attack an enemy of his/her realm, so get over it. Threads of this nature will be closed without warning."

Amen to that :worthy:

 

[Jaem-]

So if threads about Adding, Gratzing(sub rr5) and spamming in them aren't allowed, this RvR section will be quiet.

 

[Belomar]

Hmm. I read the original CoC way back and this version looks similar (if not the same). Other than the DAoC amendments, which are obviously new, what are the new points of the new general forum CoC?

So basically if you aren't an internet saint you get perma banned? Seems nice.

More accurate would be if you don't act like a tosser you'll be fine

Should ban all gratz threads tbh, nothing more boring than different ppl just posting the word "gratz" for 15 pages, or maybe not a ban, maybe give it its own forum... they never really have any content anyway, just folk saying gratz...

Ok, lets not have grats threads because you dislike/couldn't care less about them then ? Do we really need the grats thread discussion all over again, has it even occured to you that you dont have to read them ? Points for you to consider. I personally don't have anything against grats threads.

Dont really agree with banning them but a gratz forum would seem the way forward to me, they generally only create flames anyhow.

I heard something about an "Achievements" forum being introduced with the forum changes related to clustering, but I could be mistaken.

Not saying I have to read them m8, just gets rather annoying when your tryna avoid them and 90% of the threads on the page are grats threads, think with the extent of them sometimes they need their own forum tbh, then those of us who want to read other things dont have to trawl through the usual...

Gratz player X for rr X
Player X's m8s say "Gratz"
Then player Y from enemy Realm starts insult throwing.
Player X throws insults back.
Player Y and Players X's friends, guilds, other realm m8s join in.

If you find that interesting thats up to you, but when its the majority of the posts in the RvR section it gets a tad bit tired. Not saying it is, but this is how it seems to me, just a total post farm.

 

[Gungo]

Couldnt agree with you more Drav

thing is no1 wuld ever visit that forum lol

add whine prohibition

next will be zerg whine prohibition

then OP class whine prohibition

The original RVR forums were created as a place for realms to taunt and chastise each other. It was never going to be a fun happy forum with everyone being nice...

Posts about people adding on fights are in the spirit of the game. Nothing wrong with that imo. If your not interested dont read the post(as long as post isnt rude of breaks any other forum rules), but people want to use the RVR forum to vent frustrations and this can be the most frustrating thing in daoc.

neway no biggy.

Only for a select minority - and let's face it, those posts are never constructive and almost always end up as a l33t kidz bitch session.

am i bothered though?

mine never turn into a flame war
just staj declaring his true love to me .... wich is nice too!

i personally don't have anything against grats threads , so long as it doesn't involve any grats blabla for rr2 ... it's nice to know how ur realm mates/enemies are doing out there (just so i know who i shouldn't be attacking )

Well if ppl enjoy grats threads surely they would? Sometimes adding context rather than banning content can be a good thing all round. And its nothing against whine either, whine can be quite hilairious all round, for both sides of the story sometimes when done in the spirit of fun.... but whining in gratz threads is completely predictable tosh, its like whining by numbers... its stale, and you tend to find all the gratz threads turn up when nobody has really anything to say about the situation of RvR at that moment in time.

Give them their own forum tbh, then theres a matter of choice, instead of those of us who desperately try to avoid them becoming the msg searches best m8.

Eh, no--obviously, gratz threads show up because someone achieved something worthy of a congratulations (typically an RR5+ ding).

Just something I notice m8 then maybe, but when RvR goes kinda quiet and there seems to be very little people want to post/cry about, the forum fills up with gratz threads.

I dunno maybe I have a syndrome or something

agreed ! +1

Gratz threads will be "useless" when the new Community/social window comes.

And What can we post now?
RR5+ Gratz threads and .. ?

maybe we should find a other forum with mods older than 5.

Yeah, because "OMG j00 adding zerging n00bs" is so much more mature

Well atleast there is something to discuss/write. Everyone else can flame the poster and laugh at him

How many of the closed threads on first page did realy Harm the forum? None, if mods just let them be open people could "chat" a while in them and after a while they drop out like any other thread.

Oh and /agree

The charm of a MMO game is the social part, or it isnt a point with it. And how fun is it to hit a guy and he stand there saying pls do it some more. I rather see that guy come here on FH and whine and complain and show some anger!

social?

It isn't.

There are plenty of funny threads with good banter that don't get ruined by some gobby twat bitching away from behind the safety of his pc screen.

You're an intelligent guy - try not jumping on the "Omg FH mods sux!" bandwagon. The CoC is only asking people to engage their brains before typing.
