Anselm300 Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Alright so this is quite simply what happened or happens everytime i go do an activity that has something to do with combat, be it minigame or pking: Me:*fighting a guy around same lvl as me* Other guy:*losing* "STR NOOB!" Me:*kills the guy* "GF" Other guy:*dying* "NERD!" Alright thats not all. about 5 seconds later, the guy re-enters (i happened to be in the safe clanwars minigame portal) and fights me. Of course i was drained of prayer, hp and etc so this is what happened: Me:*fighting other guy* Other guy:*slowly gains upper hand* "DEF NOOB!!!" Me:"..." Other guy:*As he kills me* "HAHA NOOB!!!" :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: This wasnt just this one guy or just in this safe portal in clanwars. It happens all the time in castlewars, duel arena, etc etc etc! If you win, your a nerd-If you lose your a noob...Having some difficulty understanding that... #-o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

compfreak847 Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 There's a very simple solution. It requires a few items: some blood, death, and water runes, a set of Ahrims, a Dragonfire shield, and a set of Veracs. When you get the 'nerd' or 'noob' word, switch to ahrims top and bottom, and click 'cast ice barrage on (insert name nere)'. Step back and repeat. When your opponent turns prayer on, ,put on your veracs set and pray melee, then attack them and quickly step away so that you do not get hit. When they are unfrozen, fight them a couple seconds so that they switch to protect from melee prayer, then put on ahrims and repeat. Very satisfying. Higher stats does help, though. If one opponent is being particularly annoying, the use of blood barrage is highly advised - I frequently heal several hundred hitpoints in a single round of Clan Wars. It's very satisfying to actually act like a 'noob' when called one. Try it sometime and see. That and the ignore lists are you two best 'namecaller fighting' tools. Drops: 1x Draconic Visage, 56x Abyssal Whip, 5x Demon Head, D Drops: 37, Barrows Drops: 43, DK Drops: 29GWD drops: 14,000x Bars, 1x Armadyl Hilt, 2x Armadyl Skirt, 4x Sara Sword, 1x Saradomin Hilt, 8x Bandos Hilt, 8x Bandos Platebody, 9x Bandos Tassets, 4x Bandos Boots, 43x Godsword Shard, 82x Dragon BootsDry streak records: Saradomin 412 kills Bandos 988 kills Spirit Mages 633 kills - Slayer Sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaaps1 Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 As some-tif'ers-signature-whose-name-escapes-me once said, anyone better than you is a nerd, anyone weaker is a noob.

armourdilo Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Welcome to Runescape PvP, may I take your coat? Sure, don't wear it though, you'll get called defence noob . If you're dealing with these kinds of people I've found two solutions. You could: A.) Establish a friendliness with your opponent, chat a bit, use a little humour before it gets to the part where you need to resort to eating and praying, they'll find it that bit harder to be mean. or B.) Turn public chat on to friends/off and chat on a clan chat/private chat. Those should do the trick, good luck! It's what I do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harakiri Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 I have never experienced this ever...never in Runescape...never in WoW... It happens all the time...get used to it if you plan on anymore PvP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zierro Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Like Compfreak said, might as well commit the crime if you are being punished for it. If you get called a noob, eat, pot, pray, cast, and do whatever it takes to win - if you get called a nerd, throw some big vocabulary words at them.

fenrir321 Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I have never experienced this ever...never in Runescape...never in WoW... That's because even people in WoW actually know how to spell and be mature (sometimes) :lol: But yes, sadly pvp is the magnet for such petty insults. Then again, it's hard to call someone a nerd when they have ice barrage and you don't ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing as you're stronger than them, you've obviously been no-lifing so of course you're a nerd!!

Anselm300 Posted October 28, 2008 Author Share Posted October 28, 2008 if it only happened about 1-2 times, i wouldnt mind -much-. But the reason i get kinda annoyed is because it happens 3/5 times i go pking- everytime i kill or get killed its either noob or nerd... btw i tried the acting like a noob/nerd trick-made them call me more lol like "effing noob" or "stupid fat*** nerd sitting in front of the computer" -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bauke Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 There are like a gazillion threads about this subject. Deal with it. It's not likely it will ever change.

ShadowTwisted Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 It is the Rants forum, designed for you to blow off steam, which then leads to people seeing what makes you mad, getting offended, and venting a little steam of their own. When people can hear what you have to say, they can put in their two cents. As far as simplistic solutions go, see how rationally you think when you get pissed off. Rage = the blinders to reason. As far as the original post goes: Didn't you make mention of being called a noob even when you were winning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moad14 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 As far as the original post goes: Didn't you make mention of being called a noob even when you were winning?I believe that was because he was described as being a noob because he was hitting harder than his opponent.

Racheya Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I get that too. -.- Of course I'm a n00b if I'm winning. I never get called a nerd though. Heck, if I did I think I'll just throw in a few Star Trek references and a bit about particle physics :lol: I think the best response to a *def/str/att* n00b shout is NO U. Or whatever you prefer. You shouldn't let them get to you though, if you're lucky you'll never have to see them again ^_^ I edit for the [Tip.It Times]. I rarely write in [My Blog]. I am an [Ex-Moderator].

Horatio666 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I've got this in mini-games Stealing creation Using ice burst (i think thats the lvl 71 one) Surrounded by the yellow word "nerd" One of their team-mates kills me with a group "haha noob!" sorry, I mean "l0lz3r n00b" "Probably the worst thing I do is take bubble baths.

Kellis Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Insults are one of the last refuges of a small mind, as it tries to blindly deny the truth as if hoping that the denial of its existence will cause it to magically vanish or change to their mindset. Ignore list ftw. Dear lord, Jagex, thank you for that tool ever so much. I will gladly accept cruddy glitched updates as long as you don't take my ignore list away from me.
