Tournaments in old UO compared to ours.

Post by GuardianKnight »

A tourney in the old days was a place to show respect to someone while trying to beat them fairly in a 1 on 1 or 2 vs. 2. If you win. You say Good job or nice try.

Here i think with the automatic tournaments, people don't treat it as a special event. On this server if you win or lose it's "you suck" or "noob" etc.

Some people are just assholes, and they will be regardless. I'm surprised you haven't learned to live with that by now.

Well my grandfather always said " Lead by example and show people how to be good".

I try to do this in real life and in the game.

OK, some poeple like tourny's, some don't, why can't we meet in the middle? I say we just make tournaments way less frequent(maybe once a week, or once a month) and for ctf and dd events, only the top 2 or 3 players should get trophies, that way, if someone gets a trophy, you know its b/c they played well and didn't just get one b/c they were on the winning team. I think this would make tournys more competitive, and trophies(if they were re-instated) a lot more rare and valuable.
