Average Runescapians IQ: 60

[De_Lille_D]

Really, I can't believe how stupid some people are; especially pkers! Omg, every time I get a target, they are too dumb to realize we can both get loot with the retribution method, but every single time they try to kill me anyway, resulting in a 15-20 minutes chase, with me trying to make them understand, ending with the time in safe zone running out and neither of us getting loot.

 

 

 

Un-[bleep]ing-believable! If you do it right, the retribution method gives double the normal loot, but still they refuse to use their 5 brain cells to try and comprehend that. There is just no reasoning with these people...

 

 

 

If you could chose between not getting loot and helping someone, so you both get loot, what is the better option?

 

I guess logic isn't a requirement to play RuneScape.

 

 

 

And the worst thing is that most of these players are pretty high level (113 f2p combat), so they can't all be 14-year olds, so you can't blame it on age or puberty. Some of them are adults, or at least college students. Is this the kind of behavior you would expect from some one you might be working with?

 

 

 

I know the word "sad" is overused these days, but for this situation, I think it applies.

[Sir_Kurity]

Some people like to PK for real.

[De_Lille_D]

Yeah, but I'm not one of them. I told them I would leave iif they didn't do it my way, so I put them for a choice: no loot or double loot. Guess which one they chose ...

 

 

 

There are 4 possible ways this could go:

 

1) I die, my traget doesn't : I don't get loot, but he does

 

2) I don't die, but my target does : I get loot, but he doesn't

 

3) We both die: We both get loot

 

4) Neither of us dies: No on gets loot and we've just wasted time

 

 

 

1: I'm not a charity; why can't I have loot if my target is getting it? ---> unacceptable

 

2: Against my principles of not doing to others what I wouldn't like having done to me ---> unacceptable

 

3: I's easy, it's fast, it's safe and everyone's happy --> PERFECT

 

4: A result of shear stupidity and a total lack of empathy from my target. --> incomprehensible

 

 

 

Now look at this and tell me my targets aren't complete idiots...

[legilgalad2]

so you're complaining that pkers aren't obeying your rules? thats life im afraid. People are suspicious of people they have just met and if they haven't heard of the retribution method would rather just kill you rather than risk you backstabbing them. Or the theory I prefer is that people just go into digitally induced bloodlust and automatically kill all they see.

[Friendyboy]

The word sad does apply, and im afraid in my oppinion, that is directed at you for planning deaths to try and get a lucky drop. Not in the spirit of the game, and not what jagex intended the PVP worlds to be used for. To me, you are just a RWT.

 

 

 

Also, I would be pretty suspicious of someone doing this method too.

[Wongtong]

The whole point of PKing is to get loot from someone you killed. Majority of PKers are selfish, and you shouldn't expect them to want to use the 'retribution method' so that their kill can get loot too.

 

 

 

People get a kick out of profiting from someone's loss.

[Hubs]

The problem here is that you don't understand *why* people PK. If they wanted to keep everyone happy, they wouldn't be there. PKing is about taking your opponent's items for your own profit.

 

 

 

If you don't WANT to PK, don't know HOW to PK, or WHY people PK, then you don't deserve to get the rewards PKers recieve from PKing. Do 1 def pures deserve to wear barrows? No. Do level 40 mains deserve a hilt split from GWD? No.

 

 

 

The "Retribution Method" doesn't give double the normal loot. All it is a *real* Pker wasting (I repeat: WASTING. Understand?) 26k for some inexperienced noob to get a chance at loot.

 

 

 

What's sad here is not that a PKer is refusing to help out an inexperienced PKer; it's the fact that noobs think they can just go onto a BH world and waste a Pker's time.

 

 

 

I've gotten so many noobs as a BH target who think they can just tell me to log off, or do the 26k trick with me. Of course I won't do it. There is no reason why I should. Noobs who don't build their account for PKing should just stay out of a BH world. They aren't getting any free kills with me.

 

 

 

By the way, you aren't wasting both of your time if you stay out. The *real* Pker (emphasis on the REAL) is in the wild, getting drop potential. You're just standing on the sidelines, with some weird idea in your head that you're in control. THAT is sad.

[Trollface]

I prefer to pk for real, unlike you who can't pk :roll:

 

Besides, you can get scammed while doing the retribution trick. Someone pulled out D claws on me once, I managed to run out of the wildy though before he could attack me. I'm not wasting my time to just die for some random person I don't know just so they can get a drop, while I have to waste another hour getting a target. BH is not a place for mindless cash farming, it's a place for PKing and having fun.

 

You, sir, are the sad one, abusing the game system like this. Don't expect any sympathy from anyone who can actually pk.

[3hitm4g3u]

Judging from this thread I'm guessing you are also referring to yourself in your title?

 

 

 

Real pkers, like myself, like to pk for real.

 

 

 

Some of us play runescape solely to pk.

 

 

 

why would we listen to someone whinging at us that they don't want to die without getting some loot? That's the way pking goes, I'm afraid, so deal with it.

[Cinos]

Hypocrite much? :roll:

[De_Lille_D]

Wow you guys are proving my point for me!

 

You don't seem to understand that I don't WANT to pk; pking is a self centered activity for inconsiderate jerks that is best omitted from the game (but that's for another thread). I go to Bounty Worlds to have fun, unlike most of you, who only go for loot. I like watching fight live and annoying the occasional D claws rusher by ddsing him after 1 spec...

 

Occasionally, I get a target and as I stated above, there are 4 simple options, 2 of which I won't accept and 1 which is idiot; since we BOTH lose time (not just me, the other one is trying to chase me ...). If you think about it for about 3 seconds you see that there's only 1 logical solution.Yet, they still think they can outsmart me ...

 

 

 

-" so you're complaining that pkers aren't obeying your rules"

 

I'm complaining that they are stupid and chose no loot over double loot.

 

 

 

-"would rather just kill you rather than risk you backstabbing them"

 

I have a safe way, of doing it -> no backstabbing possible.

 

 

 

-"not what jagex intended the PVP worlds to be used for."

 

I don't care what they were meant for, I care how I can get loot without being an [wagon] to my target.

 

 

 

-"To me, you are just a RWT."

 

WTH, I'm not buying anything with real life money ... Get your definitions straight!

 

 

 

-"People get a kick out of profiting from someone's loss."

 

I'm trying to believe that I'm not the only one out there who is not a complete jerk, but the more I play, the harder it gets ...

 

 

 

-"it's the fact that noobs think they can just go onto a BH world and waste a Pker's time. "

 

Why do you think they are in a Bounty World? Mostly for drops. So I'd say a quick way to get good loot for both of us is everything but a waste of time!

 

 

 

-"some weird idea in your head that you're in control"

 

I control where I go, therefore I control if he can attack me ...

 

 

 

-"I prefer to pk for real, unlike you who can't pk"

 

-.- You don't even know me. You've never seen me before, yet you still act like an arrogant [wagon]. Why would I expect you to understand? You're one of the people I'm talking about.

 

 

 

-"Besides, you can get scammed while doing the retribution trick"

 

You can do it safely, if you're smart enough to come up with a good way.

 

 

 

-"Judging from this thread I'm guessing you are also referring to yourself in your title?"

 

Lol quite the opposite my friend: I'm a computer genius who is studying for civil engineer ...

 

 

 

-"why would we listen to someone whining at us that they don't want to die without getting some loot?".

 

Because it's fair that way? Because you can chose between getting loot or getting no loot? Because you won't get another target until one of use dies or leaves (don't forget you can easily outrun your target with Volcano tele and Edgy tele)?

[w0odspriteV2]

30 higher than in most other rpg's

 

 

 

You really shouldn't nag about the intelligence of people in this game

[funnisam]

Wow you guys are proving my point for me!

 

You don't seem to understand that I don't WANT to pk; pking is a self centered activity for inconsiderate jerks that is best omitted from the game (but that's for another thread).

 

 

 

 

 

Here's a sugestion, DON'T PK THEN. Don't go to a PKING AREA, if you don't want to pk. Your argument that you want to have fun and not pk is completely invalid, because those who PK will most likely have FUN when PKING.

 

 

 

Shut up and leave before you embarass yourself further, seriously.

 

 

 

You my "friend" (said in the loosest possible definiton of said word), suffer from delusions of grandeur.

[De_Lille_D]

-"Here's a sugestion, DON'T PK THEN."

 

I can do what I want, where I want it. I like doing what I do and you have no right to deny me that.

 

 

 

"Your argument that you want to have fun and not pk is completely invalid"

 

- And I have delusions of grandeur? You are the one who is obviously deciding what I'm allowed to like or not ... I don't know where you grew up, but where I'm from, someone like you is called a fascist!

[funnisam]

Oh no, i'm not saying you can't go there, I'm saying that you go there not to do what the area is SPECIFICALLY designed for. What you do there makes no difference.

 

 

 

However, when you say that people who go there to do EXACTLY what the area was designed for, actually do what it was designed for, you complain and whnge like a little girl. NO, stop now.

 

 

 

Oh and typical for someone in Europe to suggest that another person who is right wing, is automatically a facist (Nazi roots). Before you thow accusations around, you might want to actually know people first.

 

 

 

And as far as i can tell the only reason you have a problem with people not doing it is because YOU don't get loot. However at this point, I'd like to point out that, if there was no system and it was the same as the old wilderness, You wouldn't be ranting here. Simply put, you're suggesting that pkers don't pk?

[Will H]

You should retract that statement pretty quickly. We do not appreciate it when you insult others for no reason.

 

 

 

Believe it or not, people want to PK for real, for once. Why don't you imagine their situation and consider what you would do. Your target approaches you and tells you that if you both agree to die at the same time, you will both get loot? He tells you that there's a way of doing it without dying, and urges you to do it.

 

 

 

Sorry, but that sounds like a dirty trick than anything else, there could be loopholes this guy isn't telling you about which lets him kill you and not die himself. So, you try to kill him without dying in the normal way and think 'oh well, he probably wasn't worth it' if you don't make the kill, and move on. A stupid person would actually go ahead with it.

[3rkid]

I can do what I want, where I want it. I like doing what I do and you have no right to deny me that.

 

 

 

Same goes for the PKer who doesn't want to retribution trick with you. He can do what he wants where we wants and you have no right to try to convince him to do something he doesn't want to do.

 

 

 

People like you stereotype all PKers. You're probably just someone who sits at monsters training combat to kill some other monsters and skill up while bashing PKers for not liking to sit in a bank string amulets or bows.

 

 

 

Don't disrespect the Pee to the Kay.

[De_Lille_D]

-"I'm saying that you go there not to do what the area is SPECIFICALLY designed for."

 

It's called emergent gameplay and it's not against the rules. I play Runescape to have fun and annoying D claw rushers is fun (for me) ...

 

 

 

-"people who go there to do EXACTLY what the area was designed for"

 

The area was created for pkers to fight amongst each other and since I'm not a pker, that doesn't apply to me. I'm not complaining about them pking: honestly I don't really care if they kill each other off; I'm complaining about how stupid they are and how it would be better if they started using their brains, instead of their testosterone, to think.

 

 

 

-"when you insult others for no reason."

 

He's telling me what to like and I have to be censored?

 

 

 

-"Believe it or not, people want to PK for real, for once"

 

I don't contradict that, but believe it or not, some people don't and they will not be killed just because other people do.

 

 

 

-"that sounds like a dirty trick than anything else"

 

That's just suspicion getting in the way of logic ... I try to explain the plan, which is waterproof to my target, but they jusy don't get it.

 

 

 

"Same goes for the PKer who doesn't want to retribution trick with you"

 

- True, you can make any choice you want, but some choices are just incredibly stupid ...

 

 

 

"you have no right to try to convince him "

 

- Why can't I help him understand that retribution is a smarter choice?

 

 

 

"Don't disrespect the Pee to the Kay."

 

- Hehe "Pee" ... :lol:

Hmm so since you're not a pker, that doesn't apply to you. Right. How about thinking like a normal person and REALISING, that what you want to do therefore does not apply to them either. If you want to find someone who will do the retribution trick with you, then good luck, but DO NOT go insulting other people's intelligence just because they have the free will to say NO.

[Cheefoo]

So someone's stupid for not wanting to help you in player versus player combat zone?

[LiChef]

So people are dumb because they want to do something THEIR way? Baa to you too, sir.

 

 

 

The whole point of PKing is to go out, risk your items, and kill some other people who are risking their items.

 

The Reward: Honour and your enemy's items

 

The Loss: Shame and you lose your items

 

 

 

If I were a PKer I'd want to risk my items. Now doesn't that sound stupid? I'd want to risk them because it makes you fight harder for them, because there is the possibility of me losing something valuable. It makes you feel better about yourself when you win, because you're using the best that you can afford to kill your opponent and reap the rewards.

 

 

 

I'd rather be different and play Runescape how I want to play it than be a mindless sheep. Baa.

[Alg]

Some people like to PK for real.

 

I don't see why you should be mad at a PKer for PKing. You step into a PvP area you're going to be targeted by PKers. That's the whole point of the area.

[Smapla]

i'm sorry, but you're the fool. you say you can do what you want, where you want. if that's true, then these people you encounter can aswell, and what they want to do is pk. in a pking world. imagine that?

[The_Gabe]

Guess what? The only 1 time I tried the trick, it failed on me. I'd much rather fight my target, and know I died when I tried my best.

[Moad14]

I've never heard of the "retribution method", and I don't player kill. Even so, I feel that I am competent enough to post on this thread.

 

 

 

You're upset because other people don't follow your concept of player-killing. When you complain that the designated area is being used for its intended purpose, funnisam tells you off (and rightfully so!). You respond by hurling around political terms that have no relevance to the discussion as a possible ad hominem. What if funnisam makes a rant about you not following his concept of a proper rant?

 

I have to say that you're the cause and (possible) solution of your problems. Now choose the latter and let's be done with this.

 

 

 

Oh, and if I were approached by someone who told me of a way to make fast cash WHERE I END UP DEAD, I'd be suspicious too. Keep that in mind.
