Re: Good is dumb

Dude, honestly, I understand what you were trying for...at least I think I see was you were trying to do. I think that Fortress needs competent people bitching out the incompetent people in order to help them understand how not to be "meat" for the enemy.

Goodie RP in no way has to be polite. You can make a character that is a real hard ass and still be good. As someone who is still pretty newbish about the game, I wish there were more people that would do that kind of thing. As long you're not simply saying "You're an idiot" and moving on, any kind of "observations" about tactics can go a long way to turning someone's game around. It is kind of sad that mostly in the Fortress, the competent people will no say anything because for some reason they think it's not goodie rp.

The problem is talking to the "Enemy" like that, which doesn't, to me, seem like good RP for any Cabal. If you are part of any team, then you just don't do that. It's a inspiration, morale type of thing, you know? You just kind of came across as embrassed about you being on team "Goodie" and kind of went slightly out of character.

PS uninduction should be a viable option for people that clearly are new to the game or just not trying hard enough. Cabals in my opinion should be the for people that above average anyway, right? They shouldn't just be a standard thing that you do with a character.

Good is dumb

torak 1217 September 06, 2010 12:54AM

One thing you don't seem to get...

tongni 443 September 09, 2010 08:41AM

I'll agree that the fortress is pretty bad.

Death_Claw 442 September 08, 2010 01:09PM

Sorry, but you deserved it

What you overlook

daurwyn(VIP) 608 September 06, 2010 09:42AM

Heh you're funny

torak 620 September 06, 2010 09:47AM

That would be giving intentionally giving away who I am, in which case I will ban you

daurwyn(VIP) 561 September 06, 2010 10:02AM

You have horrible english for someone who lives in England. :-P (n/t)

BattleCharmed 442 September 06, 2010 11:04AM

It's close to perfect when I wish it to be.

daurwyn(VIP) 549 September 06, 2010 11:30AM

dude. lay off the gambling. nt

Isildur(VIP) 330 September 07, 2010 05:17AM

Funny, that's exactly where my mind went to.~

ExPaladin(VIP) 470 September 07, 2010 06:34AM

That's funny because...

Starscream 498 September 07, 2010 09:28AM

torak 558 September 06, 2010 10:08AM

Let's get one thing straight, Torak

JCDKL 573 September 06, 2010 02:44PM

You got anger issues

torak 596 September 06, 2010 03:50PM

better a newbie than a cheater! (n/t)

JCDKL 580 September 06, 2010 05:18PM

I would seriously not post on these forums as your current char (n/t)

hopelessdwarf 479 September 07, 2010 08:56AM

ok, cool

daurwyn(VIP) 548 September 06, 2010 10:19AM

you said this 3x now...you need to give a specific example... (n/t)

Artificial 394 September 06, 2010 09:43AM

You told your ENEMY that your ALLY was a fool.. And you don't see that as a problem?

Java 517 September 06, 2010 06:54AM

Nah, I still think calling him a fool was fine

torak 501 September 06, 2010 09:18AM

You can think what you want..

Java 548 September 06, 2010 09:22AM

Think of it this way

torak 549 September 06, 2010 09:32AM

Using that analogy.

Java 522 September 06, 2010 09:44AM

Ya, I guess

torak 534 September 06, 2010 09:52AM

Re: Think of it this way

Gihn 548 September 06, 2010 09:40AM

I dunno... I'd say he was truthful and justified, fair of speech and all.

Blackbird 400 September 06, 2010 07:27AM

Please tell me you haven't played a Paladin

Java 406 September 06, 2010 08:36AM

Think he was Mendecirith. Cardinal no less (n/t)

starbright 579 September 06, 2010 02:25PM

True story.

Blackbird 489 September 06, 2010 11:35PM

The problem is

daurwyn(VIP) 410 September 07, 2010 08:48AM

Agreed with out-of-range. I think my point about "unvarnished truth" stands, although apparently he talked way more shit on Fort all the time, which isn't cool.~

Blackbird 1167 September 07, 2010 09:28AM

It's not something you should acknowledge to your enemy

Baudolino 515 September 06, 2010 07:38AM

Beat ya too the punch, budday. (n/t)

BattleCharmed 534 September 06, 2010 06:57AM

Oops. Either way.. couldn't hurt for him to hear it twice. nt

Java 404 September 06, 2010 06:59AM

Dude. Read what you posted. The IMM chewed you out for belittling your ally IN FRONT of Paral. (n/t)

BattleCharmed 375 September 06, 2010 06:37AM

Otherwise, you were doing fine. :-) (n/t)

BattleCharmed 353 September 06, 2010 06:37AM

You should teach them, with patience, instead of bitching here. It will not work. (n/t)

Evil 443 September 06, 2010 04:29AM

I disagree.

dervish 497 September 06, 2010 05:29AM

You do realize...

torak 607 September 06, 2010 09:45AM

btw

daurwyn(VIP) 521 September 06, 2010 10:05AM

Of course (n/t)

torak 436 September 06, 2010 10:09AM

Wrong. (n/t)

dervish 331 September 06, 2010 09:56AM

What invoker skill makes it a good idea to flee like a noob 10 times in a row at cents after being rescued? (n/t)

ORB 452 September 06, 2010 07:00AM

Invoker theorycraft

starbright 527 September 06, 2010 07:28AM

Except Zubei redirect and finishes an invoker without shields or abs in 2 rounds. GG.

dervish 555 September 06, 2010 08:44AM

You kinda lost me with the 8 shields and 4 greater shields each.

DurNominator(VIP) 396 September 07, 2010 08:08AM

Read Marshal forefront about redirect. I'd rescue faster than he could get around me (n/t)

torak 384 September 06, 2010 09:13AM

Yeah, because that never fails

daurwyn(VIP) 546 September 06, 2010 09:45AM

What happened to you

torak 515 September 06, 2010 09:58AM

I'm not trying to be a dick

daurwyn(VIP) 480 September 06, 2010 10:07AM

Are you sure? I heard this skill is better than rescue, but I know nothing about it (n/t)

dervish 994 September 06, 2010 10:17AM

Like many skills

daurwyn(VIP) 512 September 06, 2010 10:21AM

Can you tell more pls? And about other marshall skills too. <3. (n/t)

dervish 414 September 06, 2010 10:26AM

Marshal forefront...

torak 479 September 06, 2010 10:33AM

Plenty of marshals around

daurwyn(VIP) 499 September 06, 2010 10:33AM

Zubei's claw mauls Mazura, looks like he had protections to me, also really hard to redirect with that type of pally taking the front. (n/t)

ORB 499 September 06, 2010 08:50AM

You know that protections can fall and sometimes this happens in combat, yes? The tick just...eh...ticked? Well new hour arrived then Mazura said "I am out". Otherwise I see no reason why Mazura worded out. The chance to kill Zubei was about 0.000001% but (n/t)

dervish 301 September 06, 2010 08:51AM

Why are you trying to defend some random invokers obviously stupid/newbish moves? (n/t)

deriveh 367 September 07, 2010 12:28AM

And why are you arguing with yourself? nt.

Jib 354 September 07, 2010 07:16PM

We were retrieving... (n/t)

torak 372 September 06, 2010 09:13AM

Thats too :) (n/t)

Evil 345 September 06, 2010 05:53AM

Though Mazura surely had some rounds to throw few pillars. (n/t)

Evil 479 September 06, 2010 05:53AM

That's why good and Fortress will always drive good players away

starbright 645 September 06, 2010 01:40AM

Keep in mind

daurwyn(VIP) 509 September 06, 2010 12:01PM

This is a better idea now than before the wipe

Artificial 456 September 06, 2010 12:22PM

Again

daurwyn(VIP) 438 September 06, 2010 09:46AM

You remember the log of me entwining the Dread Lord at the Inners and never once getting healed by either of the two healers I was with?

Sam 446 September 06, 2010 09:38AM

Oh! But here's a suggestion for elite players wanting to try good:

starbright 550 September 06, 2010 01:45AM

I just wish imms wouldn't view absolute kills

daurwyn(VIP) 376 September 06, 2010 09:47AM

Got to agree there. They should weigh PKs depending on how 'difficult' they were. (n/t)

starbright 372 September 06, 2010 02:21PM

Shouldn't be too difficult if you base it on the way an AP gets his souls

Baudolino 458 September 06, 2010 02:57PM

That's kind of the sadness of Fort

Gihn 446 September 06, 2010 08:51AM

PS Landren was tits :)

Sam 526 September 06, 2010 09:37AM

Thanks

Gihn 646 September 06, 2010 09:42AM

Don't need to remind me ;) Imperial Healer is rough. NT

Sam 464 September 07, 2010 12:03PM

You could just take some time to train your less pk-wise mates

Baudolino 527 September 06, 2010 01:47AM

You can't teach people to PK in game.

Death_Claw 562 September 08, 2010 12:47PM

Teaching people to PK while remaining IC.. Not an enviabl task. nt

Flipside Oreo 453 September 06, 2010 08:07AM

I've actually given up in some circumstances

daurwyn(VIP) 553 September 06, 2010 11:32AM

that's a great idea in theory

starbright 527 September 06, 2010 02:16AM

There's an arena now, which can shorten that timeframe by at least 1 character.

Scrimbul 488 September 06, 2010 06:54AM

Arena is an artificial situation

daurwyn(VIP) 474 September 06, 2010 09:49AM

That's... not teaching someone how to fight then, is it? The idea is to teach them to win, not when to run.

Scrimbul 410 September 06, 2010 12:25PM

Re: There's an arena now, which can shorten that timeframe by at least 1 character.

Baudolino 485 September 06, 2010 07:41AM

Re: There's an arena now, which can shorten that timeframe by at least 1 character.

Gihn 393 September 06, 2010 08:54AM

Now that you mention it (edit)
