I prefer to think of it as the Bully's Thread. It seems to still be here so the PvPers have a place to rant and not keep cluttering the forum up with multiple new threads on the topic every single day.

But it isn't all PVPers.. just those that feel "special"
 
What is funny is they will claim we are the bullies..

I can't remember in which thread it was - but that's already happened :D

Of course there will always be calls of "Bullying Solo players hiding in private groups only to come out when they have BILLIONS of credits and meta-maxed Warconda's and slaughter poor Purest-Only-Open-n00b's who are only just beginning their PvP seal-clubbing careers in Guild-Owned Space. It's just not right!"
 
I was called a bully just yesterday. I shoved Mouse and took his lunch money for being in my space. I would've shoved Asp too but he yelled something about "SNAT interchassis redundancy" and then vanished before I could get near him.
 
The Magic Bag can function as whatever the situation requires. It can launch chaff, heat sinks, slurp fuel, devour the souls of Open Only Advocates and consume the limitless tears of griefed pew-pew-crews.

A wonderful thing the Magic Bag!

Stop mocking us with your Magic Bag if you're unwilling to share the joys with your friends! Griefer! *runs off, wailing*

I am with you "highest feline of Bacon control, oh how we worship your quality control skills", I can not believe after you threw so many UK pounds at your computer screen he is unwilling to share, not just a Griefer, I call him a cad too and I intend to punish him for his indiscretions. I call for a Bacon blockade of Asp by all Cats in the area, this transgresses even Galactic politics.

If he dares face me in a duel, I will punish him, "Hear me ASP, I am in the Neto system" in Solo mode, come find me if you dare! :D

PS

Asp you are talking it up a bit? ;) "and consume the limitless tears of griefed pew-pew-crews", surely you would need a few more servers for all of those tears?, I question a handbag size device, even today contains such storage capability.

- - - Updated - - -

Of course - it hands out free beer and bacon too! :D

Ooops, I take it all back, we are good ;):D, sorry Julissa <Whispers, I will keep trying to get him to sell!>

Was there a bright flash, a loud bang, and puff of purple smoke? I've been practicing those! :D

Don't wanna talk about it :p


But why.. can't people just allow others to play the game how they like it.. Why does it have to really be "vs" anyone. I have nothing against PVPers no matter how many times certain people swear to some deity that I do. The mentality that one person's playstyle should trump others is asinine, about as asinine as those who claim solo's is trumping open.

A PVE mode won't fracture the community more, it will actually bring different groups together, to fracture the community more.. engage in unconsensual pvp. Just because people want to fly and meet people does not mean they want to be shot at or someone's entertainment.

That is exactly it though. Some people want to meet other players, blow them up, and laugh at them - as they want to demonstrate their complete superiority over another individual. It "gives" them power. That is why so many of them use the word "fear" when discussing playing computer games and the reactions of other people playing them.

The mindset of "I blew you up - you weak, pathetic, no-fun waste of space! L2P! Go back and hide in Solo where you belong! You are not fit to share a galaxy with ME - the MIGHTY PEW-PEW!" is astonishingly common in video games. I find it highly amusing.

The mindset of "So what? You blew up some pixels while I am slurping beer and enjoying my gametime. None of this means anything to me beyond that." is hard for the first to comprehend. To play a game, a PvP game, without being in "competition" simply does not compute for them. To be the "best" is all that matters. To be "feared" is all that matters. Even though none of it matters.

I guess it is just an anathema to me, maybe those that feel that way have never dealt with death before?

Possibly - but that's going into hypotheticals I have no data on. For the current mindset of "Pew-pew WINZ U LOZ L2P n00b I KLLZ EVRTNG I SEEZ!" you have to look no further than this very forum. You'll see plenty of it, especially in the Xbox and Groups pages. Looking further afield, you'll find all sorts of stuff. Declarations of war, owned systems, hack on sight, DDoS these IP's, all in the name of "winning"

Sad really.

I will proudly stay a part of the "Care Bears" Brigade.. I've even got a star on my tummy... or I'm a sneetch.. not sure

*splutters* Declarations of... War?!?! *starts to chuckle* Oh... oh... owned systems? *laughs some more*

Hack on sight? DDoS attacks? *looks serious* I wouldn't mind teaching those younguns a lesson in networking.
