All of you guys complaining about hostility, please consider this question:

Why should I give a shit about any of you?

I'm not saying I made him quit, in fact I don't know who he is. But reliving pre-trammel days? I don't know about that. I just think that you non-PvPers haven't accepted that you're an inferior minority and always will be, on this shard or not. You're a bunch of online characters to me, and that's exactly how it should and shall remain. I fail to see the need for sympathy.

My problem with this and anti-war liberalism in general is that it only takes one guy not playing by the rules to topple the system. But there will never only be one guy. There will always be entire nations of people with no moral qualms with waging violent foreign wars or forceful suppression of their own people. There will always be people on UOSA who enjoy taking advantage of the loose rules the shard's mechanics afford. Educating people properly about the mechanics and culture will always be the best defense. This type of diplomacy is useless, GK.

Best conclusion to help a powerful voice that I've seen on the forums since I started playing this server.

Someone must have hurt you so deeply. I am so sorry.

I'm not wounded. I just realize the difference between fantasy, reality, and the gray area this shard represents where those realms come together. This shard is exactly like real life in that if the possibility for evil exists then evil will exist.

Coming here to post a half-truth filled rage quit thread isn't going to solve anything. This is by no means the only game forum where "I quit because the game/players suck" posts get the OP dog piled by other players. More often than not when you dig deep enough, you find that the complaints aren't completely legitimate, or that the OP makes a horrible attempt at trying to make themselves look like a victim when the truth is they did a masterful job of contributing to their own downfall.

I will have to disagree. This server was hopping back when the Anti-PK guilds were strong...when players helping one another and working together for something more than bags of loot in a tower was the norm and not that thing you bothered to do every now and then to prove to yourself and your like-minded friends that you're doing good for the shard...

No...the players left holding the reigns right now are a terrible group compared to the players of years past. The shards population isn't what it is right now because the playerbase is a great bunch of players. Sure, there's a few outliers there that don't fit into that statement, but at no time in this shards history have the upper echelons of the playerbase been so incredibly pathetic.

I've probably offended people's delicate sensibilities. Oh well....I'm sure you'll get over it or get together with your like-minded buddies and laugh it off.

Regardless, the proof is in the numbers...
Players...fix yourselves...you are what's broken.
Fix yourselves to fix the shard.

Trying to keep people happy here is like swimming against the current during a tsunami. You lose your will to keep trying. You then feel bad about it for a minute, and then people give you a reason not to give a crap.

I'll chime in here. I feel what this shard needs is a great anti-pk guild to come into play. Being a stat-pk sucks on this shard. It only take a few coordinated people to kill a player killer and destroy him for several days of macroing or more. The same guild could show newer players how easy it is to recall from within a dungeon the moment any red names appear on screen.

Personally, I see 0 gain of attempting to attack blue players in general here. If I ruin their day, I might ruin a person who is just trying out this shard and in no way would his loot be worth another player quitting this shard, long term. Yes this shard abounds in pks, and those who do so in dungeons must know they are only risking shrinking their player pool of future targets.

Its an issue of the era inaccuracy of not banning players guilty of harassment. It's honestly the main and most obvious flaw with this server.

OSI banned me for saying "nigga" and yet worse is done and said here constantly and players literally purposely try to get others to quit.

Duh. Get rid of the evil trash, who cares about players or people like them. No one wants to play in an atmosphere like this... its a game. rofl.

OSI's motivation was sales, and that isn't an issue here...... Back to playing Guild Wars 2 :lol: Most won't deal with this shit just to play some lame retro game. durrrrrrrrrrr

You mean that donating stuff I already did but didn't cry for attention by having Derrick tag it on my forum account? Let me know when you're ready to leave with the other crybabies.

I turn my subscription off and on, they tag however they'd like. its not for attention. If i did leave, how would that benefit the server? Players that purposely attempt to harass others into quiting should be banned as its poison to the server and clearly goes beyond normal game play. I nominate the non donating hater Vega. :lol:
