Hehe, I'm sure. But if they are really "hardcore," they can hit you!
Then they can earn additional rating by defending well on the BB.

LOL. Which is why you scare me o.O Also why HARDCORE must be a part of their guild rank

No, that's a whole different hardcore. That one is worth a lot more than a guild rank, in my humble opinion. I put an app on hold ages ago.

Maybe it's time to revive it?

All of a sudden I have to listen to ppl complaining and whining about getting their bounties cleared?
All of a sudden? When did people NOT complain about getting their bounties cleared? I must have missed that golden era
Posted 16 August 2010 - 12:37
I see it this way: Pvp'ers hit other players for gold since the beginning. Players who were insulted by that labeled them all bullies, in their minds if nowhere else.

I disagree with just about everything you posted.I know a good donator who quit recently because of your guild, not the only one perhaps? Can't be good for the game. Maybe he was taking it all too seriously and needed to toughen up, but regardless he did quit the game because of your guilds delevelling of him on the BB which I suspect was over something pretty petty.
The BB works just fine. Painting players and/or guilds with just one color, like a PvPer or a PvP guild is an inaccurate generalization and just plain silly. Players that PvP level as well, some more then others. What they have in common is that they play BOTH aspects of the game while too many play just one(level) by choice. A player that can't/won't get their xp 'hands' dirty by playing the game then crying they're the 'victim' because there's no automatic max punishment button is typical. There should be an anonymous group to help. Oh yeah, http://www.olganon.org/The way the bounty board works is just wrong.. it's just a playground where the pvp guilds can pick on anyone unfortunate enough to end up on it. They know people generally won't get their guildmates to take 5 levels from the PVPers because their guildmates won't want to lose levels.
This is ludicrous now that xp loss has been applied almost equally amongst all levels of players. Somebody that despises PvP wouldn't likely know that. Once a player realizes that xp is not the only way by which one can gauge themselves to other players they will understand the WHOLE game. To clarify Titans, Arena, SEs etc are all optional while PvP and leveling are mandatory to play FS.Hitting players for gold is fair enough although the sometimes major XP loss that comes with the gold loss is really silly game design IMO.
There are already unofficial PvP events even with rules and all... Why don't you join one one of these days? Oh yeah, too many players CHOOSE to not play a major aspect of the game, namely PvP. That will remain their loss and instead leave them to only complain. The argument against PvP in FS is weak and old. I wish it would curl up and die.So who's keen for an unofficial PVP event? Choose a pvp guild and pick on them for a change? :wink:

There hasn't been any response by hcs (that i saw) and it's been asked many times. I dont really think it's an issue unless they start farming rating right before a reset. it shouldn't take more than a few days to get the required points.I have a question that may have been asked, but honestly I don't have time to read through 34 pages of this thread. There are a few quests that require a minimum PvP rating in order to start. The resetting of the PvP ladder periodically is going to make those quests very difficult if not impossible to complete. As the PvP rating requirements for those going to be lowered or changed?

I don't remember any quest having that high of a requirement, but since FS is a PvP game, I believe that quests SHOULD have more PvP rating requirements. The devs emphasis of PvP has been weak besides a couple of quests in early levels. I'd like to see some high level quests require a significant rating that gave a reward that was high damage, i.e. something a pure leveler would want. I'm not trying to suggest that the devs force anyone to do anything they don't want. The devs already mandate that any player can be attacked. I'd prefer to see the negative stigma some attach to PvP in the game be reduced. Guess who would love to manipulate this?It has been a long time, but I believe that one of the quests required a PvP raiting of 1600. That's going to take a little more than a few days unless you are going hardcore PvP during that time. But then again, maybe that was the point of that quest.

A rating of 2000 sounds a bit high especially under the new ladder. Also to continue to progress leveling wouldn't be stopped(blocked stairways are in SS2), but I'd like to see more emphasis put on a part of the game that has for a very long time been largely ignored only until recently. Making a highly sought after piece would entice players to play ALL of the game, if at least just a little. Of course there will be players fearful of randomly attacking others and risk losing precious xp on the BB so instead they will connive to hit one another bounty free. This already takes place, but if even a small number see PvP as only part of the game instead of a personal affront then it would benefit the game."You must have a pvp rating of 2000 or higher to continue"
Make it an item that you absolutely NEED in order to 1-hit, and make it give stam and xp gain as well

They're allies with the other major PvP guilds....

This is patently false. I do not belong to one of the major PvP guilds. I bounty hunt every time I play. I clear people with 10-stamina hits as a general rule. There are hundreds of players like me.
Sorry, but you are just plain wrong.
