Hmmm,, I hadn't realized that could have been so entertaining, mayhaps next time I'll pop in there too.

As for the new guys coming in,, I learned the hard way and I'll be danged if their not gonna too.

............

its all in jest my friend,

how about getting some thicker skin.

I think that loving klinguns this time are right. The PvP is like the gladiator arena, one can't expect mercy or a detailed explanation on how brandishing a sword.
The most talented fighters are also the most fierce and it is also true that while one died in ancient Rome, fortunately in Stol more you're vaporized, before you'll learn.
The problem of noobs who react badly to the humiliating defeats is the fact that they have a fantastic PvE starship, but then they realize in PvP it sucks.
This is the crucial moment for a future good PvPer: leaving for ever or asking for advice, but certainly not with who gank and tease you every time, but with the fleetmates PvP veterans. I've done so and when I felt ready, after many battles among my fleet, I launched myself into the space melee!

And because thank God I know the English language I read of course all the PvP threads on the forum!

i dont recall reading anything rude, vulgar, or crass. arrogant, well yeah duh. its human nature to be a little arrogant when you know you're good at something. sorry for being human.

how is this disgusting btw?



so youre saying all of us veteran players need to baby sit anyone who joins into pvp matches? umm im sorry but i dont play this game to baby sit everyone. if someone has the desire to learn then they should also have a little bit of tough skin to weather these kinds of things. its not like i'm saying everyone needs to gun down everything that moves.

but why should it be OUR responsibility to teach people the basics of pvp? shouldnt the game have a course on how to do that? i mean that is why we "hardcore" pvp'rs pay to play this game right?

also, i dont really want a romulan faction. i want a fun balanced game for pvp'rs as well as pve'rs and a nivce long tutorial on the basics to pvp'ing so newer people wont have such a steep learning curve and give up.


oh and to any returning veterans, this may not apply to you depending on how rusty you've gotten since youve left. after all, season 5 did basically make it a whole new game ,and with the up comming forced ground split it'll be like learning a little new game again.

so excuse me for making a light hearted post about beating up new people. i'm sorry to those who took so much offense to it.....

i guess that makes you one of the new people? O

You said nothing that warrants an apology, Matteo. Nobody who has ever PvP'd in this game has done so without getting "ganked". It is part of the PvP experience in this game. The fundamental shift in speed from PvE to PvP is enough to cause this. Some will be used to it, some wont. Some will want to learn, some won't. That's the way it has always been, and likely will always be. The fact that you brought this up, if nothing else, brings further light to that fact. It is a problem, agreed, but one that the game causes, not the players (well, maybe the players who KNOW that it COULDN'T possibly be THEIR fault they died have a bit to do with it).

No body said anything inappropriate.

I think we should post a message ate te start of each match:

"Interested in PvP? Join the OrganisedPvP chat channel for some advise and help finding a PvP fleet. Also ask for a kind gentleman called Mikey, hes always happy to help "

Other than that I'm looking forward to the free kills :p
