great encouragement

[Ruff]

What a great reason to come back and start playing again....

"Eviscerator narrates 'anyone who didnt suck die in that?'"

Glad to be around and try to play again.

Good luck finding people who will actually stick around when coming back from a temporary break.

I was in a probation period and was giving this game one last try.

I don't know the context here, but sometimes I feel that people care a little too much about what other people say. When he says what he did, the situation could likely quickly be difused by a witty retort about his needle dick or something about being sitebanned just for being himself (pick an insult, most people with a reputation here are burn material in themselves). That guy loves a bit of friendly, and over the top, banter. If he insists on his l33tness just tell him to eff off and rent. No one really cares at this point. Also, people who are awesome at this game didn't do a whole lot other than playing for certain times of their lives so there's that. Material everywhere!

I will end with this; just cause:

There is a general lack of cross race and same side encouragement/incentive to continue PK. Very little to gain or capability to achieve, everything to lose, and little respect outside of 'buddies' pking each other up to master.

Numbers are so few and random there isn't control of numbers PKing so it'll go from even numbers or even with mob support to overwhelming gankage because a good player logged on. The massacre follows by little sympathy by those few good players that rarely die.

My thoughts anyhow.

Er Eviscerator actually was taunting Equitant who died like a noob.

[eviscerator]

Yeah...way to take that out of context, idiot <-- That is for YOU, just so there is no confusion.

That narrate was for Equitant. If you actually played you would know that I gear up everyone.

Your welcome to stay off the MUD if you're going to cry all day. Or you can go to SS and fit right in.

I really don't know what Paj is going on about. There is nothing to gain, nothing to lose, nothing to win, there is only the few slight chances of fun during PK and that is all that matters. It's a game. At this point, the game it is flooded with every type of gear, qps, turn point whatever. You can abuse anything to get all of the previous things. Have fun. PK. Smob. Die. Who cares? Everyone is fairly good nowadays.

I'm honestly still in shock you took that narrate to heart. Were you deaf for the first few narrates? Either way your welcome to follow me to glory and gear like everyone else :) l337 4 l1f3 Die Enok!!

The real issue here is that you need to get to know people so you know who is serious and who isn't. Eviscerator is a crap talker, but he's normally a lot of fun and is only sort of a terrible person. Until such time as he is inevitably arrested and locked away forever, he will be playing WOT so you might as well makes friends with him and get a little PK on.

Eviscerator is a big jerk. It baffles me why anyone even pks against/with him. Dude is only there to vulture kills and think about himself.

[Spyder]

I think you've taken that the wrong way mate, but it's hard to tell without it all being in context. Try remember that it's DS and people talk a bit of smack to each other. Eviscerator is far, FAR down the list of people who are dead-set fuckwits in this game.

If you spoke to him about how you thought it was inappropriate I'm sure Eviscerator would have talked it over with you and probably helped you EQ. That's not to say that if someone makes threats against you or demeans you racially or in a discriminatory way that you should accept it. Take it to the Immortals, venting on forums is probably only going to lead to a circle jerk of toxic people telling you that you're a very fine person, gender being but a construct of society and to get over it regardless of them being right or wrong or even understanding the situation.

I do however like Enoks suggestion. Try giving him a bit of banter back? Hell its Eviscerator! I'm sure you can find someone who will be willing to hang some dung on him. Or just for fun, spam him tells saying "pew pew?" until he ignores you!

I can't help but feel Paj is right, there is sweet firetruck all incentive to keep pk going anymore if its not you and your friends playing together. Fully kitted characters of all shapes and sizes fleeing at hurt and wound because of the rare gear they would never have had once upon a time, knowing certain channelers or fades are going to show up the moment you get beat without fail. Personally I feel the game has become more about surviving rather than killing people, conservative mindset about text. That is not to say that being cautious isn't wise at times but I feel that players keeping their text gear has taken first place above cut throat pvp and ejoyment of the combat aspect of this game.

Evis mate, not everyone is a "good" player or even a mediocre player. I've been here for heading towards 15 years and I am still a hopeless dung in pk. Making generalized statements about players abilities is naive, the evidence of people doing newb things and making easy mistakes is everywhere. Being a skilled player yourself and having played for such a long time I am sure you see the clear differences in peoples skills. There are players from bottom of the learning curve to the top even after all these years. Everyone is at a different point in their Wotmud journey.

The sensitive world we live in.

Thanks for having my back Ruff! Ef Eviscerator. Guy is very mean and can't even chase a bleeding dism walker down. Come back when you cool off from not dying.
