I loved Greldra so much! You really brought a lot of life to this character. And you did amazingly well in combat, so hats off to you. Every interaction I had with you was spot-on. Super amazing stuff. I know you are feeling badly about the player culture, and I hear you. But I do hope with some time you will want to come back and try again. It would be such a shame to lose such an amazing player over some gear.

I bought your PBF just so I could read your role, and it did not disappoint! Super creative. I miss the Pally-dan already!

is he upset that people go 0-15 with all their chars to get extra edge points? that would be really ####ty of the playerbase.
144107, But that didn't happen here

First PK win was Nov 25. Second was Nov 27.

Greldra had only 6 losses by the 25th and 8 by the 27th. At the end of day on the 27th, Greldra was 2-10.

So.... stop making unfounded accusations. Perhaps that sort of behavior is what is truly driving people away, not some mechanical advantage you imagine people are striving for.
144108, ok but
Posted by Jhyrbian on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
it doesn't have to be 0-15 exactly and it IS exactly what he did with this char and his last chars... so please quit trying to make unfounded statements that what I'm saying is incorrect.
144109, I don't know anything about this person's last character
Posted by FullmoonCat on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Just look at the list of PK wins and PK losses and try to tell me this is anything other than someone fighting a lot and dying more than they won. You're being silly.

If they died intentionally with their last character, well my bad. But it does not appear to be the case with this one. That's not the pattern of someone looking to lose, way too many wins in there evenly distributed.
144110, maybe you can't read?

144111, Numbers are not intent

I die a lot with my characters, too. Because I suck at PVP. I see a person here trying and failing, just look at the list of losses and wins. They got better over time. I don't know why you need to make accusations, like what are you hoping to gain here?

you don't have to put your naivety on full display for everyone, we could tell after your first post
144113, *naiveté

I liked you until you went a bit gear crazy and kinda shot yourself in the foot at the end. Could have RPed back into a good place, but it happens. Good luck with whatever you play next or moving on if you choose that.

I liked Greldra. You definitely seemed to get a *lot* tougher later in life than you were early on, so good job on that. Sorry for the buggy kill that one time in the Inn!

did you go 0-15 to start just to get edge points?
144106, Most likely - yes
Posted by NoobAgain on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Also why Imms were hesitant to release the specifics of the edge points. I really dislike this gaming approach by the way (and then complaining that a drop in con made it harder to play the character later... well... duh!)

That aside, Greldra was a good character, I enjoyed my interactions with her - she was "evil light", funny, engaging. Deleting over gear in CF - I don't get the mentality.
