Something that is annoying... - this may concern many people

Post by Lord Chaos »

Today the dark mages launched an attack on the town.  The monsters they summoned were ok to fight but the GMs killing people without a chance was preposterous!  I was only killed once (Some were killed a lot more) just because some Gm's wanted to have some fun!  I lost many skills which i had been working hard on for the last week because of that!  Please, whoever else was there please post.

I know Peace Keeper was unfairly killed, because if she would have been fought fairly, she could have won for sure.  The GMs killed people while remaining invisible to the person so they did not stand a chance.  Peace Keeper, you must be pretty mad that you lost so many skills in an unfair battle!  I know I am because I am not one who dies alot, so when it happens for no reason, I am surely going to be mad here!!!  It would be fine if you didn't lose skills unfairly, but still...

If its a GM attack then what makes you think its from the dark mages?
I would say it was more likely a servant of Nargun or Cheerga or Moshran. Probably it just happened that the dark mages were also there attacking people at the time, so they tried to take credit for the appearance of the monsters and say it was their own power.

Well about GMs attacking directly....this game focuses on the roleplaying and not the gaming so you can't always expect everyone to have equal chances, or else it would be really boring, after all most players are just mere mortals. It just happens that GMs are people with stronger powers that you can't just beat with conventional methods so you have to outsmart them or work together with others. A few months ago we had to fight 3 GMs AT THE SAME TIME during the big battle in Drakhen Vorkalion's first appearance, and we won by working together. And about them being invisible...well...if they attack you it means they can see you and you can see them if you move to the right spot. You just have to know where to look and be cunning enough to get there before they leave. And if all else fails and you know you don't stand a chance to even defend yourself....well just retreat then. You can't win every battle. Oh and picking strategic locations to fight such as open areas instead of charging into the fray where you might get ambused also helps a bit...

OOC: You can be definitely sure that there was a possibility to do something - but nobody really roleplayed with "the voice" - and you can be sure that "staying away" would have been a quite safe method too.
/OOC

To stand next to an invisible being that seems to act quite chaotic and powerful, and THEN call it a coward and say "come out and fight", MAY be a little stupid.
May i give you the hint that not EVERYTHING can be solved with a fight ? And some things MAY just be too powerful to fight, especially spirits or such etheral beings ? And even MORE especially when they seem to be servants of a deity ?
I would suggest speaking respectful to these beings, and trying to find out what they want with a careful TALK, could perhaps bring an effect. If you INSULT these beings, or even provoke them, that WILL have consequences ! Think about that first !
Perhaps, MANY people need to gain SOME wisdom.
I hereby give you all the advice to use your brains. And the library is always open.
Think that such beings can not only be challenges... they can be a great opportunity sometimes.

The voice showed no signs of violance until then.  The voice was a servant of Nargun, but the dark mages are suspected because during the battle, Sir Crystal Star became visible again from the exact spot the voice came from and the monsters appeared, and he ran from the area.  I did approach the situation with caution, I had all the best armor equipped and 2 shields along with a (ooc) very high parry (/ooc) and all I heard was "sla-sla-slash" and I was dead in less than one second.  What weapon strikes so fast and for so much damage?  At first the voice just killed individuals, but at one time, it lashed out and killed about 5 people at once, and we did retreat at that point because we felt unsafe.  We tried to talk to the voice, but it kept saying that it was bored.  It was at one point "sniffing" and muttering that nobody ever worships him...  

@Santa Claus:
No, I do not expect them to give warning.  GMs do have an advantage over people, and they really take advantage of it.

@Damien:
OOC: how do you know what the voice was saying all the time?  Who was the GM causing it? (/ooc)

Bleh.... lost skills... I'll recover...  Wussy God?  Bleh, he deserved what he was treated.. oops, did I hurt your lil pig buddies?  I'm sorry... oh wait, was that your uncle?  oh well...  Dude, go home!!!  Can't even mouth off a lil mortal girl so you have to cheaply dope her?  Wow, what a great god...  until you can come out and stand a fair fight with me, just chill and play in the mud wit your pigs...  I aint going to waste my time on you...  

By the way, only the true wisdom will be handy, and by all means, true wisdom can only be obtained through .. well ... the wise gods... not the lamo's like you...   In your case, only a fight can solve your pig lovin ways...   you showed no respect to us, why should we show respect to thy?
