bind killing scum circumventing the rules

[RIP The Jacka]

LNS exists so he doesn't have to plug and wait for it to be clear.

rules are not complex

...unless you are english second language

I gotta say if someone finds your bind point, change it or plug after the first death at bind

I mean it literally only serves the point of gratifying people who try to stack K/D in any way they can, absolutely no other penalty than that

Why are global kill messages a thing if K/D farming is frowned upon?

If you want to reward skilled PVP, you need something with more information like Eve's KM. If you want to discourage non-objective based PVP, you just remove the messages.

Current system seems like the worst of both ends of the spectrum.

(just rambling)

Like the raid mob shouts on blue, it serves as a way to quell shit between players who constantly twist things.

YT is at least useful in that regard, it assists in player/community enforcement of LNS.

Where it is not useful is someone dies and gets paragraphs of shit talk from randoms. This can be countered with a thick skin or /ignore.


Not being allowed to corpse camp people is classic and you can't trust people to be honest about how they died here tbh.

YT came out before any of the LnS or play nice policies. If I remember right, YT and /ooc both came out at the same time and it was to help with the feeling of Red99 being barren. Group exp was also not in at this time. Most players sub 50 would log in, solo in a zone with no one in it and log off without ever seeing any proof that there was another player on the box.

It helps people find where the PvP is if they want to join in. It also makes the server feel like shit is going on.

But the negative effects go directly against the intentions of its implementation.

They just need to remove /anon /role hiding level and class at least... or make /role show level and class and guild tag, but hide zone... that'd be the best. Let you log in and find in range people for pvp and grouping... then combined with YT showing the zone a kill occurs in, people can hone in on PVP in their level range.

50+ pvp essentially works this way because everyone knows everyone's range mostly with limited players. If all PVP worked this way it'd be more exciting to see YT, because it would lead to more PVP from people who seek out PVP, not just twinks who camp zones to grief free kills with no risk.

So, it's happening a lot now. Brobby in particular, multiple times now. I am bound on the KC block and I got killed by darkside and sickpuppy (no big deal, shit happens) but just as the last time I was killed up there, Brobby logs in real quick. I call LNS in ooc / shout as soon as I spawn / see screen..nearly 10 seconds after that brobby roots and kills me again. He does this to a lot of people and claims it's ok cuz he's starting the root before you called lns (which may be, but if you used that logic, he could kill you forever) since he's doing it before you even have a chance to load after death. This guy is a scumbag douche and terrible for the server, and he needs to be reprimanded. He uses every chance he can to break rules and try to act like he's the one being the good guy. He even spews stupid shit like "Enforcing Sirken's rules" blah blah etc....The server is a worse place for having scumbags like this on it. I think he needs a little vacation to remind him to not be a complete dickface. If not, you are basically saying it's ok to bind camp and ignore LNS, if that's the case, everyone should be able to bind camp / ignore lns.

should take SS and petition forum imo
