I_am_Geed Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 After realizing that there wasn't really a point to pk the old fashion way (one on one, or what not), since I generally end up losing more than I gain, I have decided to attack the people who skill on a pvp world. Although I bet that some of you will say that I am not "morale", I guess that's true, but a pvp world is a pvp world. So I have my main in edgeville, log onto him, take a look around the yew trees (generally where the cutters are), I saw no one his lv, but I did see 3 lv 20-30's. Then I logged onto one of my pures (lv 30), whom I haven't pked with since the last wildy. I realized I didn't have worthy pking equipment, so I just used steel arrows. It went pretty well as I killed 2/3 of them, all trash-talking me. The 3rd lv 26 is at bank, and he puts on his "pking" equipment and starts bragging about how he can easily kill lv 30's without food. I ask him to fight, he calls me a noob (man.. I hate this word..) and then says some more trash. A few minutes later, one of the lv 20's that I had killed earlier came back to edgeville and started trash-talking (I hate this too). Why can't anyone realize that pvp worlds are for pvp...? Sure, they might have less people on the trees, but if they're gonna cut them, they know that they're running the risk of being attacked. I want to turn my private off, but I'm also paranoid of missing out on some valuable information or what not... :wall: pvp is pvp. no matter what they are doing, it is pvp. so, if you can kill them, by all means go for it. its THEIR decision to go into a pvp world, so THEY face the risks as thought, the trash talking is obviously because you ruin their training and their being wimps and complaining. good job though. If anyone is on a pvp world you have all rights to kill them :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSBDavid Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Why can't anyone realize that pvp worlds are for pvp...? Just because they are Player Versus Player Worlds, it does not mean they are pking worlds. Pvp = pking, dangerous or not ...It's a time to abandon all quests, to wave sadly to the hellcat and make the lonesome trek north to the Wilderness's Bounty Hunter and Clan Wars, the west to Castle Wars and the TzHaar Fight Pit, or south to Al Kharid's Duel Arena. It is there that other RuneScapers will be waiting expectantly with a hefty mace and a bloodthirsty smile, ready to introduce fledgling adventurers to the complex world of player killing, or, in more friendly terms, pk-ing. No where in here did I read "You can only pk on these worlds, you can't skill otherwise you will get a blackmark." Until then, you make no valid point. Are the skillers really bothering you that much? Yes, they bother me with their existence so much, that I am forced to attack them because I am pvping in a pvp world. When the defenders of the honor code actually come up with a reason NOT to kill skillers on pvp worlds, I will lend my dragon axe for 24 hours for free to that person. OMFG is the divine power of Zamorak forcing you to attack innocent players with no hostile actions? Honor.... nvm...lol..... I am pretty sure you are not allowed to take borrowed items into pvp worlds?

fenrir321 Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 1st: I never said you couldn't skill or you're not supposed to skill on pvp worlds; feel free to do so. My point is that when you log into a world that clearly states that this world is meant for pvp because it is made as such, only the naive would EXPECT everybody to NOT kill. 2nd: To hell with Zamorak and all of his followers; I fulfill Master Guthix's wish of balance by causing chaos to your otherwise orderly skilling. Also, [sarcasm][/sarcasm] on the post you quoted me. edit: Jagex also WANTS people to skill in pvp worlds while also accepting the risk. Why do you think that brawler gloves are only obtainable from pvp and are untradeable? Why do you think Jagex said there was risk when the Abyss first came out? If you've ever read the Melian Dialogue concerning Athens and Melos, skillers vs. pkers fall directly into the context: "The strong dominate the Weak...the strong do what they can and the weak do what they must." If there's one thing that I hate in this world is politics, and making diplomacy with skillers for no practical reason isn't my cup of tea. Besides, skillers have dropped good rewards before, why stop killing them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sumpta Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 No reason to bring op morals, honour or anything like that. Skiller PK'ers bring balance and harmony in the RS world. By skilling on pvp, you can gain more. Stands to reason there are more risks involved to compensate. Those skillers you killed are, very simply put, sorry whiners. And this I can safely say while I've never PK'ed in my life and consider myself a skiller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kellis Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 If you're wcing on a PvP world, you should be ready for the risks. Besides, it's not like you're gaining much - multiple people can cut one tree, if you haven't noticed. Same with fishing skillers. Possibly mining on a PvP world might make sense . . . :?

magician_xy Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I have to agree that attacking skillers on a PVP world is somewhat shameful, it gives off the impression that you're either too scared or too weak to fight an armed opponent. However even though I say that I do acknowledge that PVP worlds are primarily for player killing, so if someone chooses to skill in a PVP world they are willingly exposing themselves to that danger, and if they are attacked and killed they can blame no one but themselves. Not even their attackers cowardice. :roll: I will freely admit that I am too scared and too weak to fight man to man in a true PvP setting. If I were to go on a PvP world (happened once, never again :oops: ) I would target the skillers, because like others have said, they know what they are risking and they are the weakest (or the least prepared for battle.) I'm 100% free-to-play!!! Message me, private chat is always on. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwimmyTheDuck Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I agree with you. It is PVP, if you dont want to risk it, go cut on an empty world, they only cut there because they think no one will go pking there and its empty. But some Skill because they like the danger, anyway it still is PVP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horatio666 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 It's their problem. They should expect it. And I say kill them all Hmm...maybe I should go on a skiller killing rampage sometime :-k "Probably the worst thing I do is take bubble baths. But manly ones."

Imamonkey Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I have never been a pker. My opinion. Everyone on a PvP world is free game. It has nothing to do with honor. It is for people to fight/kill other players. The way I see it, the only reason someone would say it is cowardice or such is because they won't to be able to say for instance chop yews without competition from other woodcutters and make the pkers feel bad because they can't do it. Nonsense. You take the risk to have a less crowded spot to train/make money. Don't get mad because other players are doing exactly what the world is there to do. Quit whining because you expect it to be easy and you find it isn't. You go on PvP to skill, you accept the risk that goes along with it. From a non-pker. Don't talk trash about pkers that are doing what a world is designed for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imamonkey Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I don't think anyone said anything about skillers not playing on PvP worlds? More to the effect of stick a bottle in your mouth when get killed instead of whining about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aegis Titan Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Hmm mostly when I cut yews in Edgeville some pure comes up and kills me, guess they all want a picture of them when they kill someone with a magic skillcape... While they kill me I might flame them, but that's not always. And if they're really annoying and keep killing me, well I just put them on my ignore list (blacklist...). If I see someone blacklisted he doesn't need to count on some honor pking or that kind of stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imamonkey Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 As I believe someone else has already mentioned, and I agree. What does honor have to do with it? The way I see it, on a PvP world, everyone is like a monster. You are there to kill or be killed. Regardless if you are minding your own business and peacefully cutting yews. You go to a PvP world because you think you can get more yews for example. Other people are there to kill people. You are fair game. You moan about it because you want it to be easy. You attempt to make pkers feel shame over it so you can have easy going. Sorry, it doesn't work that way. Hearing people whine about it gives me half a mind to go hang out at training spots and attempt to kill skillers. :idea: Edit: If you seriously think about it, if pkers left the skillers alone, then places such as the yews at Edgeville would become just as crowded as on other worlds. So you have your choice. Deal with more woodcutters or deal with people out to kill you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sees_all1 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I just got onto my lvl 35, sqelt, and had my way with about 5 people in the dwarvian mines. Most fun I've had in ages on RS - they all had armor on, and either killing scorpions or what not; none of them had food. Just goes to show that low level melee << low level mage. :P 99 dungeoneering achieved, thanks to everyone that celebrated with me! ♪♪ Don't interrupt me as I struggle to complete this thoughtHave some respect for someone more forgetful than yourself ♪♪♪♪ And I'm not doneAnd I won't be till my head falls off ♪♪ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
