Worst insult I have ever received in COV was during my first foray into RV at level 42: “F***ing arrogant C***”. Needless to say that got a petition.

I won’t insult players I’ll insult the way they play.

You sure it wasn't just a typo of your name done in the heat of battle? the "i" and "u" are beside each other

That's one of the funny things about the internet. The guy was probably a weedy little 12 year old who would struggle to lift said baseball bat.

(no offense to any 12 year olds meant).

minotaur, i'd call your alt a cow, lol beive minotaurs dont like being mistaken for the female of their species :P
with regards to teledroning, depends, sometimes it's accidental, hell i've done it accidentaly a few times, always appologise to the player for it happening, but someone stood next to a drone REPEATEDLY and deliberatly doing it, that to me would get a pertition, valid tactic? erm nope, end of day all it does it **** other players off, theres no skill what so ever involved, and unless your sets either includes tp resistance or you got some rugged insps then exactly how do you prevent it or have a chance against it? deliberate constant droning of the same players would constitue griefing, just cause there's a load of heroes/villians outside the base, THERE ARE OTHER WAYS OUT OF THE BASE, get out and come at them fr an entirely different direction as for "trash talking" it depends entirely on what is said, there's a whole world of differance between in trash talking, different peeps have different ideas as to what's jsut trash talk and what's actualy being abusive, if you know the other player and know how they going to react to what you are saying (ie take it as harmless fun) that's one thing, to do that to someone you dont know is only inviting either abuse back at you or being pertitioned or some cases both, one player i'm not going to name (1 it's against forum rules, 2 most players on defiant will hae an idea who i mean anyways) was VERY well known for being abusive to peeps in sirens call specialy if they got beaten by other players, to point the "friendly banter" and the whole fun in the zone went right out the window. end of day a LOT of us pvp for fun and to take a break from the grind, a good scraps always fun, being repeatedly ganked well, nope that aint, but peeps always have the option of bringing alts in or just leaving and getting on with the grind or going to a different zone or even the arena.
saying "hey squishy, i'm gonna get you" depends who to, lol on my stalker alt i gen send that scrappers way :P scrappers, squishy? nope but it's harmless fun least that's the way i intend it to be taken lol, but i also realise that some might take it a completely differnet way, all i'd really say is end of day if you intending something to be taken as harmless fun specialy over broadcast or tells, THINK ABOUT HOW THE OTHER PERSON MAY TAKE WHAT YOU ARE SAYING.

Exactly right. If it is supposed to be harmless banter then take a few seconds to think how it may be percieved.

How about thinking about our poor eyes and making that wall of text a little more friendly?

With regards to tele-droning, it depends, sometimes it's accidental, hell i've done it accidentaly a few time. Always appologise to the player for it happening, but someone stood next to a drone REPEATEDLY and deliberatly doing it, that to me would get a petition.


Is it a valid tactic? Erm nope, at the end of day all it does it **** other players off, theres no skill whatsoever involved, and unless your sets either includes tp resistance or you got some rugged insps then exactly how do you prevent it or have a chance against it?


Deliberate constant droning of the same players would constitue griefing, just cause there's a load of heroes/villians outside the base, THERE ARE OTHER WAYS OUT OF THE BASE. Get out and come at them from an entirely different direction. As for "trash talking" it depends entirely on what is said, there's a whole world of difference between in trash talking, different peeps have different ideas as to what's just trash talk and what's actualy being abusive, if you know the other player and know how they going to react to what you are saying (ie take it as harmless fun) that's one thing, to do that to someone you don't know is only inviting either abuse back at you or being petitioned or some cases both.


One player i'm not going to name (1 it's against forum rules, 2 most players on defiant will have an idea who i mean anyways) was VERY well known for being abusive to peeps in Siren's Call especialy if they got beaten by other players, the "friendly banter" and the whole fun in the zone went right out the window.

At the end of day a LOT of us pvp for fun and to take a break from the grind. A good scrap is always fun, being repeatedly ganked well, nope that aint, but peeps always have the option of bringing alts in or just leaving and getting on with the grind or going to a different zone or even the arena.
