Yeah, I'll grant you that. I never much understood the BDA vitriol. Not sure where I fell on the BDA POM RNF, but today's issue was interesting because it made a light bulb go on. The problem is that not everyone wants to compete (talking individuals, not guilds), but the rules allow for it in part, but with a woefully ambiguous mechanism of resolve.

The more I think about it, staff ought to get out of the business of mediating camps all together and only step in on cases is KS (kills w/o having FTE). Or, implement non-classic instancimg of everything. Embrace competition or abandon it outright ^^

You know... I actually sat there trying to sleep and felt like a dick. maskedmelon, you're way of thinking is exactly how I looked at it. I was going to aggressively play within the rules; I'm a non-practicing lawyer irl so when I see a law I push hard against it but not step over it. Tonight I thought I was being nice giving them such a large window - that's the level at which I was playing. However, to be honest, if I had been more... I guess kind or forgiving or less of a megalomaniac or however you want to characterize it, I would have just left them alone. I wanted to go to sleep and didn't because I got that kind of killer drive. My own sacrifice (in not getting sleep) ended up driving me to really have the rules enforced if that makes sense; I kept fantasizing of a green name popping up and laying his big dick of camp arbitration justice down and to revel in the glory. Just for the chance of having them realize they were wrong, I sacrificed sleep and probably was unnecessarily aggressive. Anyway, I believe I acted within the rules, but I was not a kind player so I'm asking forgiveness for my rudeness.

Either way you look at it, I'll apologize. Sorry you two BDA members for being a dick and pushing hard into a camp where you were probably just having fun with each other. Regardless whether I was able to get the camp within the rule set, I probably shouldn't.

I did learn one thing though, how to copy/paste in game from this, was typing shit out by hand up until tonight. Thought that's how people did it.

I officially am eating shit/crow and saying I was wrong.

The funniest part is that went on for nearly 2 hours. I don't know how people put up with it - there's a pvp alternative that would have it resolved within 5 minutes.
Line 167937: [Fri Nov 13 05:02:48 2015] Xetho tells you, 'i waited for the camp'
Line 167938: [Fri Nov 13 05:02:53 2015] Xetho tells you, 'and here you are, looking like a fool'

Haven't read the entirety of the entire thread since no time.

But assuming this statement is legit. Mad Props. Not many people have the balls to say they are sorry.

The BDA code of conduct expressly encourages mocking the homeless

I sure wish I had a 60 necro pet I could just send in and do all the killing for me. That would be nifty. My guild has nothing to do with this, its cute that its always gotta be about BDA. I am glad you enjoyed our chat, so did I. I feel we really made progress. I am just glad that the person that got the camp after me was a really nice player, and I wish him/her the best of luck!

I just wanted people to know what a douche Skotos over here was, if they didn't already. That is all.

You don't need to apologize. This thread is hilarious because you're being far more lenient in your rule enforcement than Chest was in his in the PoM thread where he used the exact same rule.

How long did Chest wait before he took the camp from Nixxar? Less than ONE MINUTE. Less than the time it takes to relog a character! Chest lawyer-stole the camp because 45 seconds was TOO LONG, and now you're giving BDA 45 minutes!

So how does Chest handle the fact that the precedent he so publicly set is now being used against his own team? He says "tl;dr" and runs away from the fight he knows he can't win. He knows that Xetho is both in the wrong and an embarrassing rager so... suddenly out of nowhere... this pro-wrestler who has devoted his life to LAWYERQUEST now has no time for a legal battle.

You gave them 40 minutes. Your log proves it. Chest didn't give Nixxar even 40 seconds. He didn't wait 40 seconds for Nixxar's teammate to log back in.... he certainly didn't offer for Nixxar to summon in a guildmate to help him achieve Kill Force.

We also have Xetho embarrassing BDA:

Autism Level: 9000

Recap:
  1. Chest knows when to flee a fight he can't win.
  2. BDA closes ranks around their embarassing autists.
  3. Skotos revealed as a class act who is more generous than he needs to be, nicer than most would be, and still gracious enough to apologize when he's not at fault.
Chest knows when to flee a fight he can't win.

TL/DR
Don't fuck with Xetho or he'll make you pay!
