okay, so after playing for awhile last night, (got necro to L4) I have some questions that make me sound like a total newbie (which I admittedly AM, with regards to Red and all things PvP). There was some terminology thrown around in /ooc that I couldn't quite decipher by context or otherwise, and have not been able to sufficiently figure it out by way of the boards here. So- couple of terms I'm seeking clarification/explanation of please: Plug (plugging) and YT's.
So from context I gathered that Plugging was logging out during pvp encounter... maybe even just zoning out? Is this done when unavoidably losing, to avoid being 'announced' as defeated?
YT's seem to be some sort of negative 'feedback' or losing stats/stigma attached to losing pvp encounters. They are BAD, and result from losing... is about all I could gather regarding this.
I'm a LONG way from ever being involved, so I may figure it out over time, but just curious again, after seeing such commentary in an evening's playtime. Clearly the vast majority of this server's population (small as it may be) has been playing for a very long time. (((Funny though how someone can stir up as much hostility as one did last night, without somebody knowing who they were/are))) The guild/server politics are beyond me, and always will be. I'm just a lowbie fly on the wall observing all the smack talk and somewhat enjoying it.
Starting in a new (to me) beginning city on this new (to me) pvp server is quite refreshing and makes me feel like i truly am starting from scratch with wide-eyed bewilderment.
Much fun so far, killing skelles running from SWCubs, and cursing the Militia Skeletons, all while running around FoB all alone! haha
