Fighting a berserker is one thing. Fighting a nercomancer is another. Fighting both is a head scratcher. Inkomo invades Warlord Cabal. When I go after him Svesdozelt shows up. Never have I seen either character around nor interacted with either one. Inkomo doesn't even communicate other than mooing. They just group up and go around killing. Real trash tier stuff. Very helpful to the longevity of the game. Svesdozelt disappears after my death so I go after Inkomo who just runs away and recalls until he can quit out.

Ozaru 0 , 1 , 0 . Or maybe it was an honourable hgod because you deserved it and you should feel honored. Serra 0 , 0 , 0 . It wasn't honorable. They went around trying to kill everyone they could find as a team. Serra 0 , 0 , 0 . Sorry Tearea, I tried to warn you. Davairus 0 , 0 , 0 . If you look at the meaning of the word Exalted, its indicative of something worthy of high praise, or high regard, something which requires years of hard work. This tag goes beyond the character. Its an indication of a player having an esteemed reputation. Now, it was just ozaru saying that, I could say its just ozaru making some unfair attacks. It happens. Or if just someone's talking smack after dying, we can all see why can't we.. its a case of sorry you are frustrated, but that's evils doing evil things, part of the game, you meet evils just like you meet goods. Again, it happens, and its unfair to damage someone's reputation for playing evils. I would like to be able to just say that kind of thing.
[reply to Ozaru]On the other hand, as is this case here, permagroup-style ganking is not HoE worthy. Let me assure you guys that character did not just "disappear", it was whisked immediately into an Immortal dungeon and read the riot act.
If you experience this again, from any "HoE" type character - includes vampires, alhoons, raknos - or if you just feel the need to speak up about it happening to somebody else, please report it via the issue command. That gets it tracked in the system properly, and we need to have traceability to ensure we get accountability on repeated incidents. This is especially important to be able to establish that there is a permagroup. We require evidence, evidence, and more evidence.
[reply to Inkomo]
twerpalina BANNED 0 , 0 , 0 . You can see how both chars are created aprox same time and played about same hours. And you have never seen them as actual part of game, e.g. someone's main char. No, they are literally just trash ganking chars that 2 OOC players log on whenever they feel like trash ganking and then go back to their mains when they have trash ganked everyone they can.
Serra 1 , 0 , 0 . I logged in and literally within seconds, without saying anything, they attempted a team kill starting with the obligatory sleep, curse, blind. I got out, neither of them still didn't say anything and I waited for them to come find me and finish the job. Instead they went off to kill two inexperienced people. After that, they got Tearea.
Svesdozelt 0 , 0 , 0 . Inkomo did not attack you at all Serra. You likely would have died if he did.
Serra 0 , 0 , 0 . Maybe try attacking someone who isn't obviously a pacifist. You're not going to make me suddenly break RP and summon an army. That's ridiculous. Also, it's hard to tell who is attacking when you're blind. I just know he was with you when you walked in and fully expected to be dead.
[reply to twerpalina]Shit like this should not exist, e.g. chars with no actual presence/existence besides ooc trash ganks.
Sometimes you just want to test out something or fool around without too much time/effort investment, but this left a really bad impression. With trash characters it feels pointless to react in any way other than damage mitigation at the time of, and then ignoring them after. Doubly worse when it is two players who obviously had to plan this OOC given that one only moos. It was instantly immersion breaking because as a player I don't want to waste my time acknowledging trash characters that put no effort into RP, but Serra also just saw three people get murdered when she didn't and can't not respond to that (survivor's guilt). I did move to group with the new people as a defense but the trash team logged off without engaging any further. All in all pretty frustrating for a bunch of us so that two people could have some shits and giggles on a Friday night.
I fully expected Dwiggins, Heathcote, Wylsin and Serra to join up and take us on 4v2. I don’t know why you didn’t.
Yes it was a bad idea. Yes there were severe consequences. I was trying to give you something exciting to do on a Friday night since that’s when it’s all goods holding hands.
I won’t be worrying about your entertainment anymore (by providing a fight).
I do regret Inkomo getting involved with Tearea. I likely could have killed her alone.
[reply to Dwiggans]
Ozaru 0 , 1 , 1 . EH why would you ban this type of activity now? Just because it happened to someone else besides me? Be objective, was Tearea wearing save equipment? Clearly not enough monks have quite a few skills to deal with necros and their zombies. Inkomo wasn't even sanced and his fury was doing disembowls. They were pretty clear about their intentions. Dwiggins and Heathcote were already killed when this happened. This shouldn't have come as a surprise. Ozaru 0 , 1 , 0 . The imms already know who these two guys are, it wouldn't surprise me if these are the same people who rolled those two keepers chars permagrouped and power ranked to 50 and never claimed their chars. BlackWidow 0 , 0 , 0 . That idea sounds like the mechanic for disabling groups on brawl day to me, Ceridwel... Only maybe death isn't what would happen. Of course, Dav shot down this idea already but it was just a random thought. BlackWidow 0 , 0 , 0 . PS. Ozaru, only the Implementors have access to who's playing who now directly. Somebody or other (possibly even you) had complained about Immortals having access to that shit and a change was made as a result.
[reply to Ceridwel]Ozaru 0 , 1 , 0 . LOL its probably because I think you are hilarious
