And without actual PvP code this competition takes utterly retarded forms (batphoning, poopsocking, FTE sniping, plausibly deniable training, kiting, tracking etc) and then (fine, only the non-TMO) whining to GMs about everything because the rules aren't enforced by the game.

I suppose any game is fun if you win but I just don't understand how anyone enjoys the raid scene on 1999.
Lots of truth in this post
