Wow....i'm so impressed by pk's

TPPK has been around since D1.
Erm...you sure about that? Cause I'm not aware of it. Anyone who wanted to hack to kill you wouldn't have to tppk, they'd just AK you. Not to mention in D1 you could switch to hostile at any time... you could fire a few fireballs in the direction of the other guy then hit the hostile button without tping.. why bother tppking? Hell you could PK with fireball without being hostile as the splash in D1 hit allies as well.

NightShade never said that he likes tppk. I THINK...not sure...BUT THINK...that he was saying that tppk is going to be apart of the game. It is never going to go away. TPPK has been around since D1. If you can not handle the tppk then HC is not for you becuase its just...there. So if you can not handle/evade it. You are better off where it does not happen.
ok If he meant what you say then i can follow him, but still tppk's are a pain in the arse and should be beaten to death with a meatloaf.
Legit pk's are ok in my book, maybe a bit annoying from time to time, but still ok since they dont use hacks etc

hrm. I remember that now. But I for some reason...Remember going down and a guy has hydras going then he tps and hostiles and im dead :)
 
Maybe wrong topic but ....

Since a few weeks I play HC (did SC for years) and wish I read posts like these before my lvl 43 summon necro get smacked by a nice person in a public baalrun :lol: Pretty annoying this tppk but I survive.
Now I'm keeping it to private games but that's boring. I like to team up. Problem is I don't know anyone in Europe HC trustworthy. I only know that I never had problem in SC while trading with people from this forum. If anyone wants to team up with me (have 25+ necro and assa atm) let me know. Acc = groen1 :thumbsup:
 
Lovely.


Listen folks. They are here. You can sit and ***** when it happens to you, you can avoid it, or you can go play SC and not have to worry about it at all if it upsets you to that degree. I kill innocent pvm'ers but by jumping them at a waypoint. I don't agree with tppk, how ever coming on here to rant about them is probably the dumbest idea in history...

Fail, learn, succeed, find a new thing to fail at and overcome it...welcome to the process of learning, it's at it's finest in games.
 
Yeah but who is gonna discuss the real problem plaguing battlenet nowdays? What problem you say?

The lack of pies! WHERE DID ALL THE PIES GO?

I'd rather not. If after this long, neither of us has changed our minds, we're not going to now. Agree to disagree?
Coward. :lol:

OK, I won't start the argument, but I also won't sit quietly when you make comments like your original one. Don't bait me and no blood need be shed.

/sigh

Time to get a new one....bastards.

Edit: Found one! He's my hero.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the USS Enterprise.

Hey, check out the pic of me on my llama!

Damn, day late and dollar short again. Guess it's time to go hang out at star trek conventions and hope for a pic with Jean-Luc...
 
AzaZaz said:
but i ask you, if i was to "victimize the noobs and inexperienced" regardless, would you rather me do it with ample warning and time to react? or would you rather me cheat?
Cheat/legit is not an issue here. So why bring it up? Or are we playing that little kids game 'would you rather ...'?

Would you rather:
* Swim across a river of acid?
* Go down a sliding board covered with razor blades, into a pool of iodine, infested by hungry sharks?

* Be murdered by a sycopath who used a baseball bat he legally bought in a store.
* Be murdered by a sycopath, from behind, using a stolen gun?

* Be killed by a 'legit PK'?
* Be killed by a TPPK?

Guess what? In all cases I choose none of the options. Because in either case I'm dead, and that's what's important. Not some trivial detail about my demise.

Once you've seen a few TPPKs and LPKs they are relatively easy to avoid. Hence my unrefuted claim that they only victimize noobs and inexperienced players. But the problem is that in order to avoid these types you have to play in such a paranoid and perverse manner that it detracts seriously from the enjoyment of the game. And ruining the game for everyone is far more important to me than whether someone else is playing the game 100% legally or not. I'd like for everyone to play legally, but there are more important things to the overall enjoyment of the Realms.

and my argument is simply that what you are classifying as "ruining the game" is not ruining the game at all. PVP is a part of the game, included by the creators of the game and intended to be used. So when people put it to use it does not "ruin" the game, it may spoil your fun, but by no means does it affect the intentions of the game.

I'm not the type to say "i disagree" and not tell you why, so thats why i brought up legit and non-legit. You say it's not the issue, I say thats exactly the issue. You want to talk about ruining the game, I say thats the only way the game is ruined. Very simple.

And the analogies you used had no bearing on the alternatives i gave you. Murder is Murder, pking is pking, i see this parallel you are drawing. However Murder is illegal and pking is not. So lets leave the real life analogies out of the game please.

Of course you wouldnt choose for your character to be killed. Regardless, my question was not "how would u like to be killed" it was who would you rather play with, a cheater, or a legit player, because in my view that is the core problem, not the people who choose to play the game differently then simple PVM, but the ppl who abuse it.

I look forward to hearing back from you Bongo because I appreciate the way you articulate your arguments and its not a "yur a noob he's a noob" debate.

Cheers
 
If you don't like it when people PK, go softcore. I mean, why else would you play HC but to have the thrill of knowing 'sheesh, I can die any moment !!". Pk'ers give you a chance to run before they kill you, if you don't take it, tough luck. I fail to see how PK'ing could ruin someones experience. If you die, you rebuild. Wether its from lag or from being overconfident and fighting a PK is the same imo.

It's all been said and done. You obviously aren't going to change eachother's views so this thread is beginning to turn pointless. But not the good kind of spammy kind of pointlessness. The 'annoying, nobody cares, we've been over this', kind of pointlessness.
Hey, in my defense, I wasn't playing HC at that time :p

It was more directed towards Azazaz and BongoFury because it looked like they were about to get into it just like Matt and Bongo did in that past thread.

Wasn't that thread more about chicken hostile's 'legitness' than about pk vs not?

It was pretty much about all hacks in general. There was some tppk vs. pk, legit vs. illegit, chicken vs. S&E. Either way it got damn annoying and it looked like it was heading the same way in this post. And I know, if it would have, the same things would have been said, the same people would have gotten involved, and the same outcome would have occured-everyone keeps their opinions and nothing is changed, making the entire thread pointless.

I just didn't want it to happen again, although, this forum is in DIRE need of something to liven it up a bit. Maybe we DO need a good ole flame war?
 
*reads thread*

*recognizes every single kind of post from a dozen other games*

*rejoices in single player mode* :thumbsup:
 
pfft... single player.
You only play that cause you can't afford the internet.
And none of that telling me "then how the hell did I post here" nonsense -.-

Edit: That's what we need! HC forum vs SPF flamewar!! I don't remember having one of those, only cross forum flaming I recall is us vs SC doolars.
