You take this all way too seriously

We've met in daoc twice
First time I beat you in melee and gave you a bow/hug, and 5 mins later I gave you a /hug from stealth and unstealthed for a fight, despite being able to stick a few arrows in your back beforehand to make the fight easier for me

When you won, you /ruded me


It's just a fucking game, how about allowing others to play the way they want to, or express an opionion without feeling the need to flame?

Just a suggestion.

How can I not allow someone to play their way ? What I can do is dislike the way the play, Get it?

That incident you speak of I cannot recall, and if I did emote after I must have some other reason.

Hate to embarress you, but the reason you posted on these very boards was because, and I quote

Its just a game, try not to give yourself an ulcer over it.

Hehe, my memory doesn't serve me right apparently. I was a bad and bitter loser in that case where I did that emote. So what? How is that remotly relevant to why people are grping as stealthers? And why would I get embarassed over completly natural feelings? Especially over a bunch of e-people.

Indeed it is just a game, and this is just a forum. I don't even play DAoC longer, so no need to worry!

OT, its fun to see all the usual duos or trios that loves to gank soloers, always dying vs equal or greater numbers :). And then we're talking about rr8+ ppl here. You know who they are..

Well, if you are gonna edit your post to something a little more confrontational I'll explain.

I think that your statement
Coldbeard said:
Because they are useless as individuals.

is wrong, if I am capable of beating you solo and I also duo from time to time, then I (like many other stealthers who group up from time to time) are not useless as individuals, we just prefer to group from time to time.
QED.

Aiteal, dont give up on a flame war with coldbeard so easily, hes a nasty, bitter, twisted individual. You can get hours of fun playing insult ping pong with him on here and he gives such fantastic amunition (as you have seen) by being such a hipocritcal wanker who puts his foot in his mouth more often than not. Hes come steaming into this thread w/o ANY resonable argument with the sole intention of annoying somone in the hope he can increase his lego e-peen up to ages 8-12.

Don't let him go so easily!

Remember he/she/IT doesnt play anymore SO therefore he doesnt have to actually PROVE or backup any of his bullshit - but he will base his comments on heresay, conjecture and assumption due to his lack of actual fact because when he was playing the game he had his head so far up his own ass he was oblivious to all but SELF.


Now this is indeed a thread regarding stealthers and why they group. I grouped rarly on mine (inf) and didnt take playing it very seriously. Met quite a few good enemys and some real twats. BUt tbh i came to the conclusion im a shit stealther and i got seriously bored on my own so turned to visual grp based toons.

I find it histerical that people actualy care about skill levels in this game to be honest, I see posts every day about people blowing smoke up each others asses for being a " soloer" as if anyone is gonna give a monkeys in a year or so whether you were a good player or a bad player a zerger a soloer or whatever ITS.... A....GAME play it like one have some fun and stop the pointless whining bout who plays with what playstyle


do you honestly care ?

if you really think being skillful RR11 always solo etc etc etc matters you are greatly mistaken

my 2 cents :p

Ive not played much lately but i will admit i do add but only for a reason,like this one time even though kilsimba has a bad rep as a ranger i saw coldbeard add on a good 1vs1 i saw so i added on him.casters i will add unless i know they will not do the same to me and that go's for most even though they treated me shit in the past.

People that play casters really do go for the easymode coz they cant play anything else and do well.

i don`t even know where to begin tbh.

what is wrong with grouping ?


casters and tanks have been assisting each other for ages now, asking who is main assist has become a stand procedure when getting into a new group, why should stealhers not do the same to improve succes rate ?

WHY DO PEOPLE INSIST THAT STEALHERS SHOULD SOLO ?

is it just the `solo kill` titlle or is there another reason ? i don`t get it tbh.

is soloing in daoc some sort of mental sado masochist disfunction ?

i just don`t get it.

too anti social to work toghether with someone ?

too gready to share rp ?

please elaboreate.

i dont know bout ranger but hunter seems to hold there own solo if played well but scout is terrible but inf/sb/ns are more than capable off soloing what people do is up to them but i dont grp as i rarely gel with others so i find it best to solo and enjoy it more.

Makes me laugh this Stealthers are only allowed to Solo.

IF Mythic had designed game that Stealthers were only solo classes they would of implented a coding.You invite Stealther IAMINVISIBLE to you group with message "This class is not Groupable" Why the hell is all this whine on Stealthers rofl Visibles go out in groups roll over other visible soloers and yet this is deemed OK?

Game Ethics provide grouping live with it or go find another game Simple really don't come whining about people playing the game Mythic designed it to be.

This is my current theory. The only answer is therapy IRL I think either that or more sex. Anyway here is the Wiki entry:

Wickipedia said:
Sadism is the sexual pleasure or gratification in the infliction of pain and suffering upon another person. The word is derived from the name of the Marquis de Sade, a prolific French philosopher-writer of sadistic novels.

The counterpart of sadism is masochism, the sexual pleasure or gratification of having pain or suffering inflicted upon the self, often consisting of sexual fantasies or urges for being beaten, humiliated, bound, tortured, or otherwise made to suffer, either as an enhancement to or a substitute for sexual pleasure. The name is derived from the name of the 19th century author Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, known for his novel Venus in Furs that dealt with highly masochistic themes.

Sadism and masochism, often going together (one person obtaining sadistic pleasure by inflicting pain or suffering on another person who thereby obtains masochistic pleasure), are collectively known as S&M or sadomasochism.

It's not to piss people off
nor is it for rps

If it was for rps, I would have rolled a caster

I duo, I solo, at sieges and iRvR I've played in groups of upto 4 stealthers

an integer in a database field that records my rps has no bearing or significance in my life
and I dont get my kicks from pissing people off in a game

so it's not about the rps or grief factor sorry

Wasn't really pointed at you. But really there are plenty of grouping stealthers out there who just do it to piss people off or for the RPs.

Aslong as your doumate can step aside so you can have a 1v1 with me I'm happy :p

No, what matters is that zergers zerg soloers and destroy our fun, that's why soloers tend to throw 'skill-insults' at those people. Can you understand? Amazing.

I play my NS to solo, strictly solo and nothing else but solo, its just how _I_ feel a stealther should be played and its simple as that. Its an invisible toon with tools designed to kill pretty much any other char in the game, sure some are a pain in the arse to deal with but there aint many I cant kill on my own.

Its all down to how one play I guess, I play it with patience and take my time to do my kills, I dont rush things much. I find it far more exciting to play hide and seek or take on difficult challenges as a stealther, letting some visible toon know I'm there, and then strike and do my best is where I have the most fun usually :) I try to work for my RPs I get, every single one so that my rank actually mean something for me. I like to think that pretty much anyone can run duos or trios and make RPs quite easy, just from ganking every solo person they run across, which many stealthers do, without much of a challenge and ultimately I believe they loose out on a lot of fun, it isnt hard to land a PA on a fella already engaged in a fight with a buddy, its not hard to grapple and let the friend use his bow, it isnt hard to instastun someone and let the infil you are grouped with do a PA and finish things off. The ones playing duo+ are in it for the RPs and nothing else I believe, if they werent, they wouldnt duo down solos and honestly, say one duo that strictly let solos fight only one of the two in the group. Say the one duo that let solos pass by instead of just ganking, in every single case. Its always some excuse like, we are grouped I have to help, we are grouped and thought you were duo, we are grouped I accidently clicked PA, we are grouped I was afk and came back and paniced. Yeh, right, whatever, RPs RPs RPs.. and sure, nothing wrong in that really but I find it funny when people try to justify their methods and sologanking with different excuses, It's not as if duos actively seek other duos to fight, most duos seek anything to kill and when they find something, they kill it regardless of what it is.

In my book, duo is as bad as adding, just because its 2vs1 in so many cases, like someone said, I dont mind it much if its low ranks up to rr5 but after that its just ganking, low rank however is a bloody hell to go through alone and as said, I dont mind much if 2 rr2 infils get the drop on me and kills me. When 2 rr8 infils and a scout get a drop though and a mincer adds aswell with mach6 just to leech precious RPs, its ridicilous and disgusting just like for any toon that behave like that.

Shike,

thats as good a post as you can get on the subject. All put positively and challenging and its what I try to do on my NS - I barely get rps at RR4.5. But what you say is exactly how I like to play it. Where I think I went wrong recently was going to the bridges because that where the groups like to play.

I don't find grouping disgusting though, I can fully understand why people do it. It can get really frustrating though when the same bunch continually gank a low rr shade I try to only let that happen once by moving zone far away. Sometimes however those same gankers turn up in the new zone. :(

2v1 = 4v2 = 8v4 = 16v8 = 32v16 = 64v32 = 128v64 ...Indeed a big zerg! Agree with me or I won't give you more buffies! :mad:

got bot back now!

but anyways, i said duo isnt a zerg! 2 people! the 10 or so occasions ive grp'ed with my shade in my DAoC life, I have met, almost without fail, the same numbers or greater. To say that anyone who grps as a stealther cannot function when solo is a bit of a broad statement and isnt true in 90% of cases.
Dont really see the fun of grping with stealthers in a purely "ability" sense, only in a social sense.
afterall, isnt the game played to have fun?
I love soloing, 99% of the time i am, it feels great working for that kill of a higher rr, or even losing in a very close fight. But dont blame people who grp with stealthers so they can have a laugh with a mate.

I'll be solo for 90% of the time on my shade, but I cannot see why I should solo if my irl mate asks to duo with his shade.

It does add to the funfactor tho, the duo'ing. For exemple, you attack a solo stealther. Nearby there are about three other enemy stealthers. These stealthers are like: 'oh, 1v1. Let's check it out and don't add.' But as a duo'er you get: 'Zomg, stealthzerg. Add in.' Thus involving in fighting multiple opponents most of the time, which is just plain fun :)

as much as synergy have relentlessly shafted my ass and given me no quarter (add etc)... I couldnt agree more and ging (you're still an adding newb though)

coldballs without jumping on the bandwagon you are just one totally twisted fucked up individual. you have absolutly nothing positive to say about anything and anyone.

the real ironic thing is you fucking suxed donkey balls out there, but you talk like you were some sort of daoc god. You dont have any respect from anyone as being a half decent player.

now you have quit just try and say some nice things about anything ffs. you were no angel out there, you added, you zerged.. Its just ofc in your eyes it was justified or summin when you do it.
