Open World PVP.

[kolo]

Open World PVP, This has been causing far to much drama on the server. As you may know there has been a lot recently, people have been screaming BAN HIM, HE HAS HACKS, HE ABUSES GLITCHES, ETC. I think this should all stop. People are trying to build and all the sudden bam they die, they loose all there meterials and they get so pisted they rage and then they may get muted. I think it is a time to put an end to this. Many people have agreed with me as well, and yes I know people may be saying lol fuck you kolo you open world pvp all the time. Well I did. I stopped it and then realized how bad it can get.

If anyone agrees please comment.

Edit* I also belive that anyone that all caps or rages should be muted ASAP, this also causes a lot of drama.

I am fine with open world pvp being removed if people build some nice pvp zones like Thorn. I would like to have a pvp heroes/faction world instead.

I would like to make another pvp zone and complete the hunger games arena. Also, I look forward to the heroes/faction world If you want pvp, set up a pvp res?

I think open world pvp is what makes the game exciting and that the children should stop complaining.

If players are using exploits kill players in otherwise non-pvp zones such as spawn or a residence or if they are griefing to get inside your house and kill you then that will be properly adressed. I would be sorely disappointed if world pvp was removed for the entire server simply because a few of the younger players can't handle it or are whining.

Please stop classifying those who don't agree with PVP as children and other insults like that. I am probably older then you and I have a problem with how the system is used. You look even more childish for using such statements.

The problem is exactly what you have said. People are exploiting and griefing though every single guard some players have up. This is why people are complaining. I have no problem being killed via PVP the correct way. But if this is the stance you take then everyone can enjoy dealing with these issues on a consistent basis.

Why not just make Residents be set up by Staff Members and make them free? Allow a player to request his zone via the forums with coordinates and such of the zone of their area. This would prevent the abuse of the Res system and still allow players safe havens in their own home. This gives protections to player such as me that don't have the money (Newer players are more prone to being attacked and don't have the money to Res, keep losing all their XP due to being killed for Res areas, ect..).

Sorry if I come off a bit rude but to the people who say others should stop complaining... Do you even PvP yourself (not in thorn)? There are three groups
1.The Victim: The person who loses there stuff and gets depressed, rages, or leaves[Emotion:horrible]
2.The Attacker: The killer of the victim who wins stuff but gets raged at [Emotion:horrible]
3.Judgement: VIPs and up who have to mute/kick/ban others for raging.[Emotion:none, they only saw the person as causing drama so they don't care] (Note not all VIPs and up are heartless like implied above)
Think about what these definitions mean to you
Think about which group you fall in
Think about if your opinion in this matter... should matter

Also Adick there is no way pvp will be completely removed it.The most that would be done would be sectioned off into arenas that would be more or less then the greatness of Thorn not only ending the complaining but it would add more arenas that would spice up battle with out of the ordinary surroundings and just think of all the other possibilities that these arenas could grant players from member up.

We've had like 7 posts on this (Exaggeration).

-I thought we already decided on a Heroes/faction PVP World, basically Lostworld but better. One whine- One mute.

No one whines about being killed, like Hacks, etc. We should probably get a bit of a stronger anti-Hacking plugin just in case ours breaks or something in the upcoming updates.

READ: Now one thing I do notice that is ridiculous: They know it is a pvp world. They know that they can be killed, yet they whine and bitch because they lose their items, we have told people it isn't our responsibility if they die when they are in the outside-Open-Pvp-World, but if they dig into their house and kill, that is not allowed. People shouldn't be whining in the first place and should be muted INSTANTANEOUSLY if they do.

I'm fine with open world pvp but, whenever I kill somone they rage and accuse me of many things. Even in thorn I was accused of things and got demoted. There is to much drama and complanning when somone gets killed. I think that by removing open world pvp, sure we can no longer hunt people down or fight in the open but, it would stop a large amount of drama and complaints. An example of open world pvp drama/complaints would be with amtibe... I'm not going to go over any of it right now but, there has been continues arguements from him over the past few days.

this sounds like a good idea. i don't see why this isnt really done. when griefing's against the rules, why do you have to pay to NOT get griefed?
