    Got hit for like 8 times in a row by Xormar from Hubris for a total loss of 237 points... ain't it just a great guy? how big a **** do you have to be to attack one person that many times in a row?

    You don't have to be a **** to do that, I hit sockid like 6 times last night, I didn't do it cause I wanted to be a ****, I did it cause all the matches I was getting were worth 15 - 17 points and he kept appearing in my queue for 30+.

    Besides I've seen you hit me more than 2 straight times, I never thought you were a ****, I was giving you good points, anybody would do the same.

    Don't take it personal unless they tell you it's personal . If they tell you it is then go look for them and kick their ****.

    @xormar not really agreed with what you said.. there is some sort of comradry between forumites.. sort of peace of the braves.. this game is hard enough like it is to get in retal war between us.. sometime it happens just to test the mettle of each other (in LR generally) but we are careful to avoid hitting repeatdly forumites.. there are enough juicy targets elsewhere.. period..

    Ye i know thats the way it works on the forums. But since i havnt posted on them pretty much at all accept for in my alliance chatt i dont feel like a forumite and most ppl on the forums dont know me, so i get hit by them.

    And im that kind of guy that usually retaliates. Ofc if the points are way low i skip, but most times, if you hit me, i will hit you back.

    Maybe now since i posted here i am a forumite and will have to start behaving? I cant promise anything but i can try icon_e_wink.gif

    It seems Im not forumite aswell cause in last LR he farmed me 4 times, one of previous pvp he attacked me 3 times. Oh sweet irony icon_lol.gif

    Hitting dominion members repeatedly is not good for your health dolfanpescao.

    In all honesty, I'm so frantic trying to score points as quickly as possible inbetween shields in PvP that 95% of the time I have absolutely no idea who I'm hitting. They could be alliance members, forumites, my mum... doesn't matter. If they appear in my queue, are worth points and don't represent a serious loss risk then they're fair game. If I have hit the same person multiple times then I doubt I'd even notice.

    I keep repeating - 2-3 times MIGHT happen I get it... and I was OK with that - I was fine even up to 5th... but 8?

    Just a bystander, but curious the difference between 1 person hitting you 8 times and 8 different people hitting you once... results are the same, there's just the perception of a personal attack. Just sayin'...
    On the other hand, the tagline to this event is "How does it feel to be hunted?" icon_e_smile.gif

    nope.. i skipped some forumites i acknowledged cause i d rather hit someone else two times than a guy i talked to daily (except if i know he's shielded or we are at the 1100 + pts treshold and everybody know you are too big of a target not to be hit).. mb its just me but thats how i behave.. i know there are no codes, no rules, no laws that prohibited to hit someone 6-8 times in a row but i will take it personnally..

    I did notice the tagline just several minutes ago and found it perfectly fitting icon_e_wink.gif

    And there is a difference - the difference being that it 1 person tried at least to attack different people than one person times 8, that one person would have a chance at getting the target point value... I did not say anywhere that during those 30 minutes only Xormar was attacking me - there were several other people but those were at least different people icon_e_wink.gif

    I guess blame the game then for continually offering you up to the guy to hit, unless the guy is spending 1000's of ISO skipping other people just to get back to you.
    But I've had it happen where I keep seeing the same 3-4 people in all three nodes and only one of them I thought I could beat and/or the points made it worthwhile. In general, I'm not too careful about who I hit, as it's determined by the amount of points I can gain and how I feel about my chances about winning those points. Of course, I would probably start to recognize someone's name after a few hits. I can understand where it might feel sucky to be hit by the same person but on the other hand, maybe there weren't any other viable options?

    Well, when I run into these situations I hit the guy a max of two times, and then shield up.
    I know how much _I_ would hate to be farmed, so I don't do it to others.

    But I can totally understand doing it if you absolutely _have_ to get over a certain threshold and have no other options. Doesn't mean I have to _like_ it, though icon_lol.gif

    Yeah, anymore, once I'm up over 600, I don't spend a lot of time after a shield to play more than about 4-5 matches so that I don't get hit or retals while I'm playing. So, the chances of me hitting someone more than a couple times in the same period is slim. I'm ok with the retals happening while I'm shielded, and sometimes I even defend myself! icon_e_smile.gif

    All PVP taglines should be "It's time to farm". Whoops! Sounds like Farmville instead!

    Apparently CStorm/MNMags is a thing in this tourney.
    Cliffhanger523 is at 1108, and I got another one over 1000.
    Am I missing something here? Yes, of course, maxed BP, but wouldn't you get retaled within seconds when you run CStorm/MNMags? I sure know I did retal.
    And... that's not exactly a speedkill team.
    So... what's up with that? o_o

    That's probably the whole '2* plays against other 2*s' thing Bugpop suggested ina nother thread. Yes, I did see a few 2*s during at around the 700 mark, but I suspect a pure 2* team is likely well insulated from the 3* guys. Against another 2* maybe this looks intimidating (not sure why, but their options are limited).

    My biggest complaint is the fact that I don't have anyone over 100. BP is the closest at 96 because of the buff and I was getting slaughtered by 141's and a 212 BP for 40+ points.

    Is anyone getting only 1/3 of their points for PVP victories?

    I refuse to believe that my opponents that were freshly queued as 20-point opponents would legitimately end up worth 7 points over the span of 5 minutes, or that a 40-pointer would turn into an actual 13-pointer.

    Is this a server lag thing? It seems weird that server lag would give me partial points instead of simply zero points.

    I don't see the sub for TaT in Story mode either. Something definitely lagging.

    did not notice it during my stealth charge. Seemed fine so it must have corrected quickly.
