At 1 o'clock PM, Day of the Sun, 6th of the Month of the Dragon
on the Theran calendar Phawa perished, never to return.

I'm a doofus, I know ...

I don't get the song...

People have the Phawa.

(just a random dumb remark)

I'm not sure what it was about the character that rubbed me wrong. I know more than once that I'd go with you defending if I died, I'd be down at least a few choice pieces and some of those very hard for me to replace(prayer beads). Then if I took stuff from you I'd never hear the end of it. Cheap kills abound for Morin and then we have the verbal fight over the sword that you left on the ground standing over that villager.... Just felt meh.

I knew that if I was there defending after taking the Codex for the most part you'd never show. which I can understand from a game mechanics thing, but from a RP thing I just, meh....

Anyways, congrats on being deathly from what I saw, and making it to CON death.

First the good. Anytime I fought Phawa, it was always a good fight. From a skill and mechanics standpoint Phawa was good. I always like a challenge, and Phawa qualified.

Now the bad, and there was a LOT of it. Man, you sure could cry and cry and cry and cry and etc etc etc. I thought at first it was your roleplay, but after enough of it, I realized it was just you being a giant bitch. You would shamelessly gank the #### out of people (I recall at least a 4 on 1 at one point, could have even been 5. It was tough to tell with all the goddamned undead between two hero level necros) and you looted like crazy. But man, if anyone touched YOUR gear or did anything YOU saw as unfair, you cried to the point that I just lost any respect whatsoever. You once spent the better part of a solid RL half hour bitching at me about how you were going to full loot me and con kill me etc, when two people I was with attacked you, after I deliberately refrained from joining in, and even told them I wouldn't take part in such a dishonorable attack.

You seemed like as long as everything was going your way, you were happy and everything was fine, but the instant things went in a way you might not like, dying, losing a single piece of gear, or what have you, you would totally lose your mind and you became so ####ing unpleasant that eventually I just decided it was better to avoid you as much as possible. This took some of MY enjoyment away from me, because I did truly enjoy fighting with you, but dude the constant stream of complaining/threatening/crying/bitching that came from you after any sort of interaction that didn't go your way just made me lose any desire to even kill you. It just wasn't worth the cost in brain cells wasted listening to your crap. If you could get that nonsense under control, you would be a stellar player. As it is, you were just one more really REALLY poor loser.

Irusan, from what I roemember, I had die to Balakai on open sea, he looted me and sac my container so all my foodstuff was on the ground..I found out when I headed to arkham to buy poppies, right about the time I unghost.....as I try to grab the things on the ground, you were standing there slamming wrath, that is low even for you, and I sure let ye know about it. You are here thinking I ruin ye funstick, yet you try to do everything possible to ruin mine...that's not counting the time in hamsha when you and moron chased and cry to me, ah keep on retreating but still be near enough to keep an eye on both of you, then I saw you went link dead, so I grab day opportunity to fight moron when you suddenly cried to moron, when I swear I did not see you on the who list just seconds earlier...
Most of you fortres folks are more evil than the empire in term of roleplay, ah think you are another case of peeing in your pants when you caught me offguard that you want to make the most of it...
I don't gang with 4 unless its a raid situation...day shows you don't know me at all aside from the delusions you are trying to create...
Moron, like I already told ye in game, its not the Fire sword I am worry about, but its your act of going to the deepest reach to put me down is really what im concern with...the irony is day the sword is called Incinerator the blazing sword...
I had to write tie response via cellphone so don't mind the grammars

It's not worth fighting with you about it. Fact is you whined about gear as much as anyone I talked to. I'd be interested in how you equate evil with Fortress Roleplay though.

hehe I guess I didn't get any of that because I didn't take anything?

And the fact that you whine about the prayer beads makes you a good judge of my character? If I knew you would take the sword from the ground when I grab it and it somehow dropped down again... I would not spare your corpse all those suicidal times you and a couple of paladins charge in head first to attempt retrieval at the palace, only end up with each paladins dieing 2, 3, 4 times?

You give me a good reason why taking the sword Blazing, the Incinerator-a sword that if use against the Marans shall heal the Maran instead of hurting them- is a good Paladin roleplay, maybe then I shall accept my "wrong".

I had a whole page and a half written in rebuttal to you, but meh it's not worth it. Phawa was a crap character in my experience, with iffy RP. Nuf said.

I mean who cries about a player not saying who he was given how much of a bunch of grudge holding, clique having pussies this playerbase is.

nt

I'll be surprised if Phawa = funnyone. Mainly because I have the funnyone pegged as playing a couple other characters that AFAIK have been online at the time as Phawa.

I mean as much as you sweat his nuts on multiple forums I am starting to wonder if you have a massive broner over the guy.

"You once spent the better part of a solid RL half hour bitching at me about how you were going to full loot me and con kill me etc, when two people I was with attacked you, after I deliberately refrained from joining in, and even told them I wouldn't take part in such a dishonorable attack."

If you want to tell the story, why not tell the Whole Story...So you stand there healing up Ziltani while he and another proceed to entwine me and beat me down in Hamsah is honorable and not partaking in the fight?... If it wasn't for your healing.. and you heal quite much.. Ziltani would be dead or escape by his little chin hair... then you claim you didn't partake in the fight, I sure try to give ye a hard time with that... and of course you are disgrunted, no one likes to be proven wrong...

Same phrasing etc.

Of course I hated you, and never gave you a "fair fight" (a fight on your terms) but I thought you played very well. The player seemed like a good sport too, which is all that really matters after it's over.

I didn't realize you were burning through your life so quickly (at least you always had nice armor) but I'm guessing you had fun while it lasted. Good luck with the next.

This ranger beat me arse silly many times.. and I come to the understanding that he is Good.

After soundly kicking my ass over and over, I finally got 2 kills. Don't tell me they were the last ones

Mubs hits quite hard.. so if I didn't have proper protections.. only luck will save me from those those heavy trunks... a beast indeed.

My chances of catching you were very very slim, you were the worst build imaginable for me to fight but it was fun trying none the less.

Suprisingly, I thought the rangers are quite deadly in the wilds... I got my arse handed to me a few times by certain rangers in the game har!

Shame I never got you into the underdark or some sort of cave

I kept a wooden cerimonial staff just for you. With the new changes to the village terrain, Drillmaster Nuk is a happy Nuk! Gave me a fighting chance at least at the giant!

Lucky me, I wander down to the Underdark quite a few times..

Phawa was a very entertaining character to watch. You were quick, ruthless and very smart about who and how you faced your enemies. It was clearly painful to watch BattleRagers get drawn into your strategy like cattle to the slaughter.

There were also other incidents of you being hunted by Scion and Fortress where your evasiveness came into play. These were also worthwhile.

You did clearly take advantage of some very obvious misunderstandings of the "parity" rules. You were one of the rare to experience how we deal with these issues - too bad I screwed up the outcome and had to remedy the mistake.

Other forums are having their way with slandering Battle right now but most of the people running their jaws are completely ignorant to engagements of parity. Quas and JMC seem to have the best grasp of what is expected from the Immortal Leadership of the Battle cabal. Hopefully the significance of their posts outweigh the quantity of others.

I'd challenge people who want clarity to use my forum (or Gameplay) for answers.

It's characters like this that help draw out questions about other characters and cabals. I would consider that a good thing.

A very entertaining character and I look forward to observing your next!

Well you always got something up your sleeves for the game and I think it's good even though it is not quite so good for me at that one time... so when Mubs mentioned there was a policy regarding me, I alerted the Empire about it and Sivyh mentions something along the lines that it was an honor to be tested by the village's god and I couldn't agree more...

For what it is worth, the Emperor had the right attitude about this.

My challenge was issued when I was online and there were multiple Villagers online as well. I wanted to observe one of them best you. The clear misunderstanding from several of those villagers (which they took well beyond my issued challenge) was that you could be hunted at all costs.

Hunted by Battle titles are reserved for those instances and there are no 'at all costs' in those scenarios.

It was fun clearing that up by thumping a few heads.

Are there 'at all costs' scenarios, and if there are, what they are?

There are, and they are stated on the Plaque within the Village. For a full discussion about this topic see:

Well it was a good run while it lasted... I admit there are times when I would go crazy about shinies... but I died alot and get looted many times over so that's where that came from... I apologize for that. I did full loot 3 or 4 times over the life of the char but they knew it was coming... The empire was quite strong when I was up and coming but after the attempt at overthrowing Sivyh, the Empire seemed to go downhill by the fact that we rarely attempt to take items anymore, expecially toward Phawa's end of life and that's sadden a warrior who loved a good brawl.

Fiam, you looted my shines-bloodstone rings and a few other things-the few times you killed me and handed the shinies off to your allies-Ziltani and Balakai.. then when I cleaned your corpse, it is only deserving.

Sorry Pugh, when Allysia killed me while I was sleeping by the lobster under the island, she looted quite a few rare shinies-bloodstone rings and a few other things-and handed it off to you, you were my next target and ah did full looted you, but you keep on truckin, showing no grudges and came back stronger, that's something else, fitting for the Rhyme.

Lisos: you also take what you didn't need or can use-bloodstone rings and a few other things, swords mainly- and handed it off to others.. so you're like the third person who take things you can not use, you can see now why I am after you vigorously and at least twice successful at that, and not a hint of sorry feeling for you.

Sivyh: you are a generous but hardened Emperor, a good Emperor imo... but after the overthrow attempt, you didn't fill up the council seats, leaving the Empire in a tough position to fight and that bothered me a bit... I think a few people rooted for me for the War Master position, but I can understand how valuable a competent bard can be in the Empire. That incident in Seatryn where I bashed dead Balakai, I really truly didn't realize Seantryn was a protected town until you called me out on it.. you were in town when I bashed him down! and I got a demotion for it, derserving.. but then the Zaan became War Master again, I was kind of gunning to be Anathema, to try to form a band of miscreants with Lohoq, Cotz, and others... and what a better way to do it then to bash down Lisos in town... but it didn't formed and I continue truckin on... I don't have a grudge with the villagers as a whole... they just are the easiest target since they supposedly won't jump on your fights and aren't quick to run like others... though I kind of "abuse" that parity rules that there was a time span in Phawa's life when I was wanted dead by the village at all Costs.

The Zaan: you made me Elite twice and ah thanks for that.. but I kind of wish either ye make Emperor or die off... such is life in the Empire.

The Imperial Soldiers: Keep on trucking! I might come back sometimes...

Enemies: I don't have alot of fans in this department but best of luck!

Kudos to the immortals for a great game!

Damn you had my number. I am not sure how you con died as none of it was to me.

Well fought on my end as you kill me quite a few times.

Never did remember to bash you, though you were propably reduced most of the time.

I liked this character.

Well done.

Aye bashes probadly do you good in our battles, but since you are a lightwalker, I have quite a stockpile of protections against you, namely protection against good, stone skin, desensitize, aura, and sometimes shield with weapons you are not resistant to.. I shall never underestimate the power of the berserkers though...

I really enjoyed watching you - even when we did not get along. To me you epitomized a duergar - you had certain drow'ish aspects about your personality and definitely many dwarf'ish aspects. You appeared to be very deadly and I know for a fact many feared you.

Our relationship soured a bit after you broke the law a couple of times (to try to nail down Lisos), but I thought we bridged our differences towards the end.

I was getting worried about you con-dying and thus our conversation at the Altar where I hinted that I may know of a few ways to prolong your life, but by your answer I understood that you still had ways to go.

You will be missed. I cannot wait to see your next.

Well.. Nirilas was a strange one that's for sure.. not quite sure what you are really about but that mysterious air had perhaps kept us at a distance, an uneasy alliancance of some kind, never quite trust each other but not to the point where we need to kill each other... that is good and ah enjoys it, keep truckin!

You were one hell of a strong fighter and one scary guy. I was definately scared when you would log in. As a Imperial during your time and a enemy of yours, trust me when I say you definately made an affect. Good luck with the next.

Not really. Empire is technically sill waging war on nexuns, though both sides don't pay too much attention to it. And actually, I only killed you for one reason, but that's an IC thing. Otherwise I would have walked away and not even slept you.

As to the looting:
Two bloodstones.
A charm bracelet of which you had two. (forgot to check for which had preps, I would have given it back if I had realized, I am sorry about that)
Blademasters gloves.
I think that was it.
Honestly, you die and don't expect to lose those things?
If a warrior kills you, you think they would leave them?
Or is that okay? I fail to see any difference. Be glad I gave them to someone in range and not some level 15.

The whining got a little tiring, especially since if you had a been at all cordial I would have returned the rings, but you called allysia a bitch, and well, that sealed the decision. Though it was fine RP for a duerg of course, which is why I did not ignore you immediately when you began the complaining.

You are too naieve? if you expected something else instead of insults for looting a pair of bloodstone rings, a heavy charm bracelet filled with food, water, and supplies, roots, potions and whatever it is in there.. it was a heavy container for sure, and the blademaster gloves... Obviously, I was there trying to kill the lobster to regear up the body and the waist slot so I didn't have much more shinies than that... and that is one of the reason you didn't take more, another reason is you couldn't carry more weight with the Charms Bracelet filled up with goodies... I think you got a bit too happy catching me offguard that you peed your pants and try to make it worthwhile this one and only time you got lucky.

And here I tried to convince myself it was decent duergar RP.
Guess it was really just whining about gear after all.

Oh well.
Think what you like.

You know, taking something for your cabalmates is okay, when there are a lot of enemies in cabal of the person you have killed. But, when there are only one and half, looting thing on regear means something like "#### off, I don't want to see you in this game".

At least, you could show more respect to the enemy that is keep trucking no matter of the opposition and is fun to play, fight and interract with.

Bad showing.

Allysia gave me the stuff she looted. Phawa in turn full looted me when I died to him while raiding the Palace. Double check all the details before you start knocking stuff.

And it is exactly what I am saying. Looting things from single enemy, when your cabal is on top of the power is a bleh.

So you think that since your cabal is "not on top" that you should not be looted at all and full loot your kills? Thats stupid.

I do not think full loot is something ok. I think it may exists only when:
a) You punish a bitch for something very, very, very bad he did earlier;
b) If you know that this guy is a ganger+full looter or fullsacer (a-la Rupen)
c) He is costantly insulting you, or going into OOC insults.

I also say that if it's a player from the nearly empty cabal and he shows more courage than anyone else (and Phawa surely did that), looting him at all is a bleh.

Just out of curiosity.
Sivyh, Zaan, Wiril are all pretty regular (as was Phawa) and can do pretty well for themselves, plus there was the council til not that long ago, plus lots of mid range guys that are up and coming. And again, let me know when this actually matters in a one on one PK dynamic.

You clearly liked Phawa, for whatever reason, and that's fine. I really didn't know the character. Doesn't change much of anything. I had two interactions. One a fight in which he ran from me when he saw other raiders drawing near- which he knew before I did. And the time I killed him. Which, a simple return potion would have prevented.

His post suggests I even knew who Phawa was or considered him some tough guy to PK and that somehow I was giddy to get so lucky. He's wrong. He assumes I wanted to take more shinies. He's wrong. Of course he assumes to know facts he has no way of knowing, like my carrying weight and that was the only thing stopping me. Again, he's wrong. Fact was he got caught with his pants down, and he died and lost four things (which anyone would lose if they died with them), of which I kept zero and offered to return one of.

Dieing and losing things happens. Annoying yes, but I don't threaten to full sac a person's entire cabal and run my mouth for a half hour over it.

If Phawa responded better, he would have probably just lost the gloves. But I have the feeling he would have bitched just as much even about that. Some people only like CF when you play it on their terms. Sorry, but that's not how it works.

How he responded is a testament to his actual character as a player, and in there Phawa lacked in my limited interaction with him.

That's all this was about.

nt

Give a good example and teach a player, instead of pissing him off even more, and probably playerbase will become better. But if you will 'expect that he will whine and loot him because of that', you are ####ing sad prick.

I do not say there are so many whining players, but I dare to say that you are making it even worse, while could make it better.

About 'strong empire', you named three players of whole cabal, and I didn't see Zaan since time of the coup, for example. Today I've seen seven nexus online. So your reason 'empire is strong because there are three good players' is a kind of hypocricy.

No more answers to you, since you don't understand/don't want to understand a simple things, or playing a fool.

Though I've been playing Hello Kitty Island Adventure recently and I have no idea what Valg and the others are talking about. That game is ####ing brutal

Without facts to support any of them outside of me killing Phawa, which you did not see unless you are actually Phawa.

Unless you are online 24 hours a day and monitor the comings and going of every player all day, what can you say about any character's presence? Last night I saw Suo, Sivyh, Otueghad and a couple midbies. I speak off what I see, and I see plenty of empire players on most every time when I play. And last I checked I killed him alone, not me and five other nexuns. Not that the power of Nexus as a whole is even relevant to this.

Allysia has been around a long time, probably at this point longer than 95% of active characters. I've seen most every cabal be in the dumps in my char's life. And people in them all keep trucking, even when they die and lose gear. And most of them don't go on OOC rants when they do and break RP.

I never looted him because he whined. In fact I said I never really interacted with him. I did kill him. He lost some nice pieces of gear as a result, kept a lot of others. He complained as if I fulled him and acted like he has been fulled, as he admittedly fulled a different Nexun because of it. Revenge full looting. Yeah, that's good for the PB. And Twist's Imm comment seems to indicate this OOC stuff was not a one time thing.

What good does him thinking he's entitled to all his gear when he dies do anything? He whined basically OOC to lots of people about gear apparently. How is THAT helping the PB? If you can only play CF when you win, and can't handle losing, it's a tough place to be. And ultimately he was a good character- just not good with losing gear. Anyone Thror says a good job too I tend to think was quality cause I respect his opinion and he gets to see a lot more than I ever did.

I understand everything perfectly well, but clearly you do not.
I've killed plenty of people, and rarely loot anything, since I don't need anything. Some people do lose a few things from time to time however when I kill them. Maybe you played one that I did that too at some point. Sorry?

I am quite aware of who the fool is here, must be me for bothering to explain these simple things to you. But I try to, so that you'll better understand the nature of what CF is and what it is not.

>But if you will 'expect that he will whine and loot him
>because of that', you are ####ing sad prick.



Truth!

I've always found this particular phenomena of CF interesting. The if you don't play during my hours or as many hours as I do then you aren't on enough. I've been on plenty after the coup, for example I had to start from bloodoath again and you can only be promoted once a day. If I'm not on 24/7 it's well frankly that I have a job that's been very demanding of late and it's the end of the summer so I'm out enjoying it. I'm still on min 10-15 hours a week and will be more in another week or two. From what I've seen it's more of the old dog-pile where everyone wants to play on the winning side which can be frustrating to watch as you know half the people who you were just fighting decided to join your side on another char. With a smaller player-base it becomes a lot more noticeable. While I don't think forcing players to only play one cabal is the right thing to do, because frankly I think people would burn out on characters much quicker if they have to play the same one for months at a time. I think maybe there should be some kind of hour delay between cabal'd char switching, might help it some.

P.S. The Zaan liked Phawa, you were one of the few really competent Blades of late. I did get complaints of ####ty behavior but never saw it myself. A shame you burned through him so quickly.

I am just saying that I did not see you since time of the coup. No single time, while I've seen you before in the time that I usually play. And I am online about 10-12 hours per day at daytime +2-3 hours at nighttime. So, I can make conclusions about players activity.

Why don't I blade you? Because I do not feel inspirtion in playing Empire those days. I will explain that later... not because I like to play on the winning side. Personally, I always made chars in losing cabals. But (this is strongly my opinion, and you may disagree with that - but it's true for me) situation in Empire is not 'losing cabal' - it's pissing off cabal with the pissed off leader who do not care for anything but his own ass and 30 minute logins once or twice per week.

Again, I think that Empire is being kept weak on purpose due to OOC reasons and I won's take part in that ####. Paranoidal? Maybe, but it is what I feel, and this is truly disgusting.

-The Empire after the coup was in for a rough time, and that started about 3 or more weeks ago... I don't know how much or what time frame you play, but when I play -everyday- , only Sivyh showed a consistance presence... Wiril, I haven't seen since the coup 3 weeks ago.. the Zaan, in the last 3 weeks, I've seen maybe 3 or 4 times... Otuer and Lamiam has a semi-consistence presence.. and that's the Empire's hero range. There are alot of young blades up and coming in the 20s and early 30s... so the Empire is no way in power comparing to other cabals, especially Nexus, Battle, or even the Fort right now... that shows how much of reality you are attune to, Allysia.

"And the time I killed him. Which, a simple return potion would have prevented. "

-A simple return/teleport potion would probably, maybe save me, but the circumstances didn't allow it because I was half paying attention between rounds with the lobster and rest... so you came, sang sleep, and sang the fiend... well I manage to flee but then the seaweed time runs out on the next tick, so I couldn't flee no more. I die in the cheapest way possible... I don't expect you to know or care that I was half aware of my surrounding, or my water breathing.. but I expect you to at least show my character some respect by not taking things you do not need after a cheap kill like that... Oh of course, there is no rules about looting whatever you want from the corpse... but then don't act Suprise when I called you a "b*tch" for doing it in game... rather a fitting choice of word for a female wood elf with a superior complex, especially when our first meeting was a more pleasant one.

"If Phawa responded better, he would have probably just lost the gloves. But I have the feeling he would have bitched just as much even about that. Some people only like CF when you play it on their terms. Sorry, but that's not how it works."

-You're lecturing to me on how CF works the way you think they should work when you are in as much a position to define CF as I...

Is that a "cheap kill"?

You have an odd attitude. Cheap kills that don't require looting are getting killed regearing by the same 5-man gank squad that fulled you 15 minutes before. Any other type of kill, looting is fine.

I'd love to see how you react to getting fulled retrieving from a cabal by a hero as lowbie (happened to me), getting full-sac'd defending (that's always a plus, happened to me as well), getting pit-looted by a level 2 that logs out and loses all your good #### (happened to me as well).

When all those things happen, you tend not to get upset that someone loots your Dern gear and blademaster's gloves.

I also think that all the people that bitch and whine about loot the most are the ones that never get good gear unless they have a perma/gang/whatever to get it for them.

I'd say 75% of the time I get fulled (and not 4 famous pieces taken, which somehow has turned into full looting) I usually end up with a better set a couple hours down the road.

First of all, you have a skewed and limited view of things in this argument..

Secondly, to answer your concerns, if I saw Allysia- or any enemies for that matter- on Eastern alone, I would consider that a good fight and most likely already prepared to go for it... not because they are an easy kill -which sometimes they are- but because I am prepared for the showdown.

Thirdly, I see that you think you are good, and you are entitled to your opinion, but that's only what you think.

Lastly, I dare you to tell the world that you never whine/bitch/cry/rage delete/or whatever about being looted/revenge looting, and I shall hail you the Saint of CF.

I'm not the one who has a death thread that is spiraling slowly out of control.

And by your general argument then, only fights where you are prepared are deemed fair? That's not a logical view in the world that is CF.

I've never said I was good nor do I even understand how that's relevant. What I did show was examples of looting that are much more egregious than the incident you seem to be upset at Allysia for.

I haven't deleted a character over loot since 2007. Well, unless you consider just abject frustration over wands loot. I have been known to full-loot people with a character from time to time, and I generally roll pretty well with someone full-looting me. I'm not saying I'm perfect (far from it) but what I'm saying is if I can do those things, then you can probably play this char without the abject absurd notions of honor with gear and be ten times the char Phawa actually was.

I am attuned to what I see, not all things, you are right. Again, that's not relevant at all to anything. You can try to make it so, but fact is it is not. Talk to scion, who has maybe 4 or 5 active members ever.

And you're right, I did not know you had little water breathing left. It may have dropped, but that happens too. I could have let you sleep and you would have drowned I guess. The fiend at least gave you a chance to survive by giving you a moment to quaff. Also, not relevant. Death is death.

Things I do not need? And how do you know what I need? I'm curious. Because the rings are warrior only and I'm a bard? How does that mean I don't need them? Not being able to wear something and not having a use for something or completely different.

Didn't say I was surprised you called me a bitch. Said that's why you didn't get them back. IF that's your RP response, you think her RP response is to be nice to someone who called her a bitch? Doubtful. There's no superior complex at all. I get my ass whipped a lot. Lots of people kill me, even more have run me off.

Not lecturing you at all actually. I don't dictate what anyone does in CF. However, going OOC is generally not something that should be done and I merely commented on your OOC ranting about gear.
Imp's posts made statements, I clarified the position is all.

I died to Lisos and some invoker because he knocked me out, the invoker came and put down quicksand, and they beat me down when light was swaying. I lost some nice things cause of that "cheap kill". Actually, the fact was they caught me unprepared, I messed up and I died, and I lost some things. Blademasters, humansunder, some other stuff. Fact is I don't recall cause it does not matter. I didn't spend a half hour ranting at them about me losing humansunder when neither of them can wield it. I didn't run around and try to full anyone because of it. I actually talked with Lisos about my own stupidity at getting caught like that. And that was the end of it. I got up, and kept rolling along.

Everyone has break downs, but they should not be a consistent thing anytime anyone does something you don't approve of. That's all.

There seemed to be a confusion about me and gears... I don't expect the gears to be return to me when I die... but I shall give you a piece of my mind about your level of sportmanship-thus the insult-

I admit I have a sense of sportmanship that is my weakness, that is why I get riled up when there is a lack of sportmanship where there should be one.

The simple fact is that you are a bard and you can not wear warrior-only bloodstone rings, thus your action was what I brought up, not anything else. I also called out Fiam and Lisos out for doing exactly what you did.

There are many things you do not know about Phawa's life... The incidents of Phawa bashing Lisos down all over town was indeed on purpose and part of Phawa's intended path, not a rage attack like you assumed.

Lemme open your eyes a bit with a little story:
-Lisos cough up alot of gold to bride some imperials to try and get Phawa demoted, some blades told me about it, also Lisos admitted it later... so Phawa wanted Lisos dead.
-Ex Warmaster Zaan was redeemed and became Sheated Blade, Phawa wondered if he can demote de Zaan to secure himself the Warmaster position, but didn't.
-Phawa got demoted to Imperial Blade for a seperate incident not involving Lisos.
-Ex-Warmaster Zaan became the new Warmaster Zaan.
-Phawa is disappointed of not having a chance at the Warmaster seat, built animosity toward the Emperor, but hides it quite well in the cabal channel while stirring up things in the background.
-Phawa bashed down Lisos all over...attack the Captain of the Spire; and talks about Sivyh's downfall to a couple of folks twice..
-Lisos sent tells, note, and the likes to the Empire and the Immortals about the bashing.
-Sivyh gave warning, but Phawa, calm and devious, played along, but fully prepared to accept being Anathema if it handed down.
-Phawa got alot of fun things plans for once he became Anathema, including bribing blades and other Anathema to join him.. but it wasn't meant to be.
-Phawa continued his tenure as an imperial blade, and was promoted to Elite again long after.

Of the 200+ hours of Phawa's life, I never rage delete once.. and that'll tell you how much you think you know me and how much I am intimidated by the shinies you took.

Relevant facts:
You got caught in the ruins and died for an IC reason.
You called Allysia a bitch.
You lost four piece of gear, two I could not wear but certainly had use for, because of it instead of just the one.
You complained for about thirty minutes, vowing to full every Nexun you fought, during which I should have but did not put you on ignore.
You later full Puhguly, who had nothing to do with it.
You send me one random tell with an insult some other log on.

That's it.

At what point did you exhibit any sportsmanship in this small period?
Was it in the complaining about getting killed while resting from fighting the lobster?
Was it in the time you complained about me taking the gear?
Was it when you said you would full every nexun you came across because of it- (cause that's a logical and proportional level of response)?
Or was it when you actually fulled somebody who had nothing to do with it?

If you have sportsmanship, stick to it. If you have it only when it suits your mood, you don't really have it.
It's easy to claim you have it, much harder to actually exhibit it.

I'd suggest working on the latter with your next.

Once again you try to tell me how I should play my character, you are entitle to your opinion, but my opinion of you is that you should concentrate on bettering your own char instead of trying to degrade Phawa whom was one of my most enjoyable char i have aside from the bs with you and a few folks here....same goes wwith TMS

Was hoping to get at least one fight with you.

But it seems we never did find a battlefield for it. Every time I went after you some of the Fortress would show up and well they became the main target.

You were a tough opponent with your entwine and flurry. You sure seemed to escape by the small hairs on your chin a few times though. Man that was annoying! Anyway..Good job.

Well I can safely say I am glad you are gone. I referred to you as the "dog in heat" whenever you saw me I knew you were making a B-line to try and bash me down. I finally found what I was looking for in the form if anti-bash protection but I had to cut out early seeing the 5 nexans were after me . Thought you were decent enough, I actually thought you would become anathema after Zaan got War Master against but alas it was not meant to be.

Just based on the postings on the forums I would try and tone it down a bit. A lot of times the CF community can be pretty harsh but the worst thing you can do is lash out. Just read peoples comments take them in stride and move on.

"A lot of times the CF community can be pretty harsh"

Clearly I wasn't intimidated by the CF community enough to rage delete Phawa after many many deaths.. and clearly I am gonna call one who is an ahole an ahole- if it looks like, smell like, walk like a duck, quack like a duck, it is a duck... and a few folks here think they are infallible and I sure like to call them out on it.

Phawa was a fun opponent, you'd come in at odds or with odds, dude
you didn't give a crap. It was refreshingly awesome to know that
if we had the codex, even with heavy numbers against you, you would
make a play for it somewhere in there. If you guys had numbers and
were coming after the orb there would be a pulse racing (for me)
pitched battle at the watcher, whether I ended up running or you
guys backed off for another try (You'd get it eventually and I knew
that) it would always end up with me having an massive adrenaline
rush on the edge of my seat. It's a feeling I thought maybe I had
lost playing this game, and I thank you for showing me it's still
there. The flurries thing at the watcher, So you didn't kill me
you KNOW if you hadn't done that, I'd have beaten you all back so
really that got you guys the orb that time. (And gave me such a
rush I had to 'meditate' as soon as things were 'safe enough' to
do so and go smoke and calm down a bit. I couldn't even type for
#### for a little while.)

Good luck with your next.

Har! I remeber that battle, you were there defendind alone againt 3 or 4 imperials comming for the orb and Sivyh was nearby stalking you... I figure you were as good as dead or gone when I entwined you and bashed ye down until you were within death's hold and you "evaded" two of my flurries in a row...and you got out convulsing from what I remember. My jaw just dropped at how slippery you are...good luck with the fight!

I liked our interactions, but I kinda wanted to get to hero and fight you. I wanted to show you that you couldn't beat every dwarf, that this one was going to get yer!. You were tough it looked like, probably shoulda been warmaster imo cause Zaan is the zaan of course but You seemed much more fierce.

I love fighting up and coming characters, namely because your skills haven't perfected yet and that just give me the edge ah need to annihilate you.. but who knows.. you might be The Dwarf ah wouldn't want to mess with...

I liked Phawa. Deadly and not obnoxious. On the other hand, I have the feeling you completely ignored Imperial Law when you knew you could get away with it. Could never really prove it IC though, so good job "getting away with it".

Out of curiosity, what was the deal with you and Battle? Seemed to have a real grudge against those guys. Not even specific ragers, just the cabal in general.

Very willing to fight, and a tough foe. Just care less about gear. If you die and are geared to the teeth like you always were, you should expect to lose it. Thanks for beating my ass a bunch and bein fairly classy.

Kudos for you being classy.. much respect... even though I still think you wasted a legacy... but I did waste one also so that makes 2 of us...

Good blade, always willing to fight and come for the codex. You will be missed for sure. Make another and come back, but do not die that much!

Har thanks! I reckon you were that mysterious voice I hear yesterday.

But we did fight some enemies together, and I really had hope that you will become next warmaster. Saddly, I didn't see Zaan since time of the coup - no single time... so, I thought you are going to take his place.

Roll something evil and come back!
