Dam - and I was so looking forward to beating you after my I7 respec.
In a way though, I can see your point. I think this game is doomed as there just isn't much expansion to it because of the way it works. Not enough to hold people's interest.
If the powers were more exciting the baddies more original in their attacks and the world was more interactive then maybe they would keep more customers. -

Dam....thats my program for loads of arenas... -
Thats why I said I am very careful when I do it and leave ABSOLUTELY no possibility that it could be taken as intentional. So there is no subjectiveness whatsoever.
Its a clear black and white case and I make sure I always come up whiter than white.
If players percieve my actions to be wrong, then thats their fault that they have interprited my actions and the rules wrongly. Just because someone might take offensive doesn't mean that you shouldn't do it. Be a man. stand up for what you believe in, even if someone somewhere thinks you are wrong.
Can't spend your life worrying what everyone might think of you. Or trying to please that remaining 1% of the population.
If people think you shouldn't tp them into mobs or drones, then thats their problem. So long as I continue to come out whiter than white it doesn't matter to me or the Dev's or the GMs.

Thats right - drone tp'ing takes no skill at all. But you know what? It punishes other players mistakes. And that is just as important to do sometimes.
Drone TP'ing can give your team a massive advantage and CAN help you rack up your bounty score. Note my exact use of words there. I don't think I need to explain how it can potentially do that....anyone over a 'single digit age' should be able to work that out.
As for TP'ing into mobs, mobs are simply tools put in the zone for players to use to their advantage if they wish. IF they do not wish to use these tools then good for them. But thats no reason to critisize those that do. Its like critisizing someone for using insps.
My ethical view on mob TP'ing is the same as my view on abortion. Someone, somewhere with more knowledge and research than me has talked to like minded people and come up with an answer on this subject. I therefore go with what they say. If the dev's say mob TP'ing is ok, then I don't even need to think about it. Its ok. They dictate the rules and I play by those rules.
The second they change their mind, I follow them. No questions asked. -
I hope you are not talking about sweet chilli, kins. Because if you think that is her only tactic, then you haven't spent much time in the pvp zones at all.
Plus, I also mob tp too and occassionally, even kill someone all by myself. I do try not to let that happen too often though these days.
All is done perfectly within the EULA and also within what the Dev's have said about the use of drones and NPC's. -
Its also plus defence against mez - but if one gets through, then yes, it is usally dropped like any other toggle if it goes on or above your mez number at that time.

No. He was stating a case at you for making a pointless and nasty reply.
His post was not nasty and it did have a point. -
I suggested using a whole team or using a team with about 4 bubblers in it...even just 2 could make a significant difference I think.
And I never mentioned using controllers. Their PS powers cannot be made perma.
-
I just think its funny that some people who once thought that this would never work are now arguing that its unfair.
I also think its not great pvp - but it clearly works....or rather, it CAN clearly work. -
For some people, winning is fun at any cost. I think the problem must be when it is used to teams to give one team an unfair advantage. Having a 4 v 8 team fight isn't going to be good news for anyone on the team of 4.
There are ways to counter it of course...
But then again, I wouldn't expect someone who didn't foresee this happening or being a valid tactic to be much good at thinking of them. Not that I can remember who those people were off the top of my head...

What did I say?
What did I say...months ago?
To those who said it couldn't be done or it wouldn't be that useful, then read this.

Sonic Cage/DF, is it getting out of hand? -
AM from the rad set protects against end drain.
-
Yes - it does mean you won't see in in Warbug as much.
Next step for Sweet Chilli is to respec of of a player killing build and into a PvP build. Which means I get rid of 2 power pools that are great for player killing but not so great for PvP.
It also means I'll be playing my alts so if you see any names that look like towns in Teesside, then give me a shout and PL me -
400 rep for sweet chilli on Union. AAm I the first cont on Union to do this I wonder?
-
So when is the next one?
I'm free Tuesday 4th, Wed 5th, Thur 6th...
I say we go for one a night now. same teams, same leaders, same way. -
I have the Van guard. Can I be on both the Rad team and the holding team? Will this be possible?
-
Dam - I've started teaching a new class on a Monday night. I'll try to get back from it as quick as possible though.
-
Respec done! Brilliant team. Very fast. Good job all
-
See I think there is a fine balance. More people won't always turn up the longer you leave it. In fact I'll wager that it would have the opposite effect. If we manage to do it once - it should become a once a week thing.
People will see how good Hami's are. A trade might start and people can then fiddle about making enzymes. If you only try once a year no one is going to remember or know how much better hami's are than enhancements. -
Whats the most people you have ever seen on Union at one time?
For me it was when the organised PvP was on in Sirens. Now I'm not going to go over that old arguement, but the reason that so many people knew about it and were on is because there was an article about it on the front page of this website. That is the exact publicity that we need for hami raids to work. Is there any way we could get an article about the raid one the front page - and possibly a reminder one just before the raid?
Someone must know someone who knows someone who could try and get this done. -
Yes, I've come to the conclusion that some people in the PvP zones are plain dumb.
Some tank once joined in a duel I was in with his mate. I had asked his mate for a one on one. However, his friend decided to join in because I got my imps out....and he considered that a violation of the one on one!!!
Some people are so dumb, you can't even explain to them how dumb they are!
However, my fave are those that tell MM that they wouldn't win without their pets!!! These people should not be allowed to breed as we really need to stop the 'thick' gene from proliferating.
