Hmmm nice topic... Think its fallen abit off track somewhere along the way.

Im sure we (Core PvP Community) believe that if you are in a PvP zone you will be attacked no matter if you want to or not. You pass the sign at the door to the zone!

So someone will moan cant avoid it.

some good advice for all players in a PvP Zone... Avoid broadcast or replying to it.

Ego has a big part to play in PvP and some people take it too far.

Broadcast is a outlet for this emotion.

have fun guys see you in a PvP Zone soon

[/ QUOTE ]

Broadcast must be used - silent PvP is no fun at all

It happens from time to time

Well done

Play nice, children

Probably, I never bother to check.

You should investigate the possibility - scientifically

[ QUOTE ]
Wouldn't know, don't really care. Most of mine are Tech origin.

[/ QUOTE ]

So they are technically good at PvP?

Who gives a flying what Science is? If you haven't failed to realise, this IS a Super Hero game.. NOT a science

[/ QUOTE ]

What about someone called Captian Science?

[/ QUOTE ]

What about him?

[/ QUOTE ]

Does he have a place in a superhero game?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, theres not just him either, theres loads of Super Heroes with a science origin. Its not just about them though. There are other origins. Magic for instance.

[/ QUOTE ]

But are the science ones better at PvP than the magic ones?

So glad to see that my original post has digressed into many flaming wars, boy am i glad i read through of all of this to discover what is and what isnt a science, because there aren''t any other websites on the net that could give me that kind of information.

Still, nice to see 85 responses on one of my threads

Have fun PVPing guys and like i said before, they are just pixels.

Nope - you've taken the word science in a very narrow context. A common mistake.

Sharp jab from Chilli....

Really? I've taken my definition on the basis of personal experience, and every dictionary/encyclopaedia entry I've ever seen.

What's your definition, and what supporting references are available?

Straight right and an upper cut from Standoff.....

Perhaps they could take it to the Arena?

There is nothing that you can prove exists that doesn't fall into the realm of science. Every particle of matter and every bit of energy are governed by scientific rules. We may not have all of those rules in our books but that doesn't mean that they don't exist.

Religion and art are not the opposite of science. They too are subject to laws and theorems. Art is quite scientific. Anyone remember the golden rectangle? Religion is studied part of social sciences like psycology and sociology.

Like I say, every particle or group of particles is subject to laws. Just because we don't know the complete formula, doesn't mean that those laws don't exist.

I don't know the formula for why some people like the Mona Lisa - but that doesn't mean that there isn't one.

[/ QUOTE ]
You've confused science and the natural laws.

Natural laws are, by definition, the rules absolutely everything obeys, so while "There is nothing that you can prove exists that doesn't fall into the realm of natural laws" is true, it doesn't actually say anything useful.

Science, on the other hand, is an entirely human activity - the process we use to try to infer what the natural laws are, so we can make predictions and plan our actions on the basis of how we think things will behave.

As the link Shannon posted said, strictly speaking science doesn't definitively prove what things are; rather, it involves putting forward a hypothesis as to how things might work, then attempting to disprove it by observation. If enough attempts at disproof fail, it's provisionally accepted as an accurate reflection of the way things work. That's where theories (c.f. Relativity) come from.

A lot of things can be subjected to the scientific process, from the fundamental behaviour of the universe (physics) to the rather fuzzier behaviour of people and cultures (anthropology, sociology, etc...)

Some things, like religion, are just plain outside of science - if you propose the existence of an omnipotent, supernatural and invisible God, who only intervenes in an observable way when He/She/It chooses, there's just no experiment you can do to disprove such a proposition. You can attempt to form a scientific argument as to why people follow religions, c.f. Dawkins, but that's a different matter again - such an argument doesn't address the truth or falsehood of a religion itself.

Similarly art doesn't really involve any sort of falsifiable hypothesis. An artist will paint/draw/build/whatever something, and say "That's art". Some people may agree with that, others may not, but there's no generally accepted way of proving the matter one way or another. So producing, or judging, art isn't a scientific process.

You see the difference?

Believe me, If I know you're after me in RV and don't want you to find me - you won't.

You'll exit the zone?

<laughs>
No Golden Girl - I won't exit the zone , I think you may be confusing my PvP strategy with yours.

[/ QUOTE ]

I can't be - I have a PvP strategy
(Well, apart from trying to getb close enough to hit someone - but that's kind of the universal Scrapper strastegy )

In short in my opinion, High-Level Villains should have the Arrogance, self-confidence and pure Egomania to walk (if we had a walk emote) straight through a pack of heroes without saying a word - knowing if anybody dare touch them, they would rip the hero's arm off and beat them with the wet end.

I thought the Villains always say their Patron powers aren't as strong as our Epic powers?
