Teamkillers on Emerald

[MacavitySWE]

My friend was just playing on Emerald as Vanu when he encountered two extreme teamkillers. He was in ANT trying to fill fill up a base that was at 10% when these guys started tking him. Names were Shaefer and Necromantica. One of them shot the ANT down to 50% with his mossie first, and then waited for the other guy to start filling. My friend jumped out quickly as he could and started filling the base, then the teamkillers just shot the other ANT to bits. And they said something like, we were first and whatnot. Damn that so friggin annoying! :mad:

That attitude belongs in 1st grade, not in a game.

With these "team-mates", who needs enemies? :confused:

I told my friend to report them and he did, also did an appeal myself just in case.

I've seen many instances of griefing against friendly ANTs. The reason it happens is because it's so easy to do and the penalty is so light.

If griefers can further drive out players, the lack of response by the CSRs will become the chief source of attrition.

Once when werner collasped under the strain a few of my outfit went over to emerald TR. Some turkey started shooting me in the back in the spawn room while i was setting a favourite. The fucker got a surprise when my little emerald newbie charachter suddenly suited up in a AI max and sent him a tell saying "you stupid little child..."
He ran out of the spawn at full speed without even collecting his armour and weapons even although I made no move to shoot the little tool :p


The reason for his actions? Becasue my charachter is called

It is unfortunate, but it happens. And it is all empires and servers. However, in my opinion, it has become more pronounced since the server merger. For example, we were fighting another empire the other day (i am not being specific to keep the focus on the problem). We were just about to push the enemy out of their last few bases and lock their home cont. During one particularly big battle, our spawn tubes went down and I noticed multiple TKs. Ran to the spawn room to find an individual destroying the equipment terminals (tubes were blown) and several bodies lying around. He turned and began firing on me, but at that moment, 4 or 5 other guys ran in, so he took off. It was an obvious attempt to sabatouge the base. Sad, but true example of some of the problems that the server merger has brought (I had never seen this type of behavior before).

I always /appeal people for doing this kind of stuff, but I really don't think they even look at these issues. I have yet to receive even a single form letter response from SOE for the appeals I have put in. I very much doubt they even bother to police this stuff in game. Heck, we had a CR5 using global spam on Christmas night to argue that the **** killed Jesus. I was really surprised that SOE didn't jerk him quick, especially since this was Christmas and religion, but I guess nothing is too out of the park for SOE.

About the only true remedy you have in game, is tk them back. Not a good answer, but the only one we are left with.

[Firefly]

It was probably NCSpywity... either that or 0000, who told everyone in the Annwn caverns yesterday that he was an NC and a VS spy and got a global sent on his behalf.

[TeraHertz]

true, all server have arseholes. It's the multiple empires on a server thats done it in my opinion. People like this monkey are becomming anoying.

[ThEOnLyOnE]

i had a similar problem... i just spawned at a tower.. and a "friendly" shot me..
and then sends me a tell stating that im not The OnLy OnE...
hes on my buddy list.. i kill every time i see him..

[TheRagingGerbil]

I had two asshats try and destroy my ant because I beat them back to the base the other night.

They died quickly...

[Destroyeron]

Server merge = bigger battles, more crashes, more tkers cause you can have 2 empires. I liked having 4 servers.

[Exano]

Its not the server merge thats making more TK's, as it wouldent be possible (You change empires, get 1000 greif, change back..what, you still have 1000 greif? Yup.)
it is the 7 day free trials: Greifers keep makeing them again and again, we need to have CSR's check everyone that gets 1000+ greif, see if they had any appeals on them, and then see if its a a 7 day trial account, and ban that IP adress

[ORANGE]

Hate to tell ya this but it is relatively easy to spoof an IP address if you even have half a clue as how to do it. :scared:

[ThEOnLyOnE]

also dsl users just have to reboot..
and there in. then what.. u going to ban the range.. doubt that..

[Hamma]

Yea last night TR almost ended up with a neutral base because some idiot kept TKing ants.

[gonnagetyou]

One thing I've noticed about Markov VS is that we don't put up with team killers. On several occasions I've seen team killers get jumped by everyone around. Everytime the idiot respawns about 10 guys are waiting for him and people take turns wasting the piece of shit until he quits. Not much else you can do about it but /appeal or police yourselves with the afore mentioned tactic.

[Vick]

Worst case ever: Yesterday NC kept TKing for the LLU after a four hour fight for it at Gunuku.

It probably switched hands 5 times before someone got away without being TKed.

[FlakMan]

I had some guy get annoyed at me because he 'was there first', but he was new to the game. He was there way before me but didn't know how to fill up an ANT much less deploy it at a silo, nor did he think to TK me like a jerk.

:rofl: i have dsl:D but dont worry , i have the game plus CC and i dont tk unless i see some1 tk another ,its just how i am , then they always send me a tell sayin "WUT THE FUCK IS UR PROB ***" , i say,"i saw u tk him dipshit"he says, "he tked me like 15 times idiot", i say ,"o.........opps :P"

[Otherick]

^ to avoid that look out for ur pals and outfit members I cant be bothered to get tangled up in other tkers buissnes (sp)

[Mr1337Duck]

Yeah, TKs suck, one time we had 3 of them in a lib shooting at my squad.

[Everay]

my outfit is the ultimate Anti-TK outfit, i guess you can call them that, if a single member gets TKed, all outfit members in the local area just go to town on the TKer. its so great. though we dont have that problem often.

[MacavitySWE]

Just checked the TKers, and they switched empires to NC on Emerald, so if you play NC there, watch out for these punks.

[KIAsan]

i dont tk unless i see some1 tk another

careful there. We sometimes tk other outfit members for various reasons (they need to recall, need to get ammo and it is too far to run). It wouldn't be pretty if you were in the middle of an outfit night, saw an outfit tk, then killed that dude.

[Professor Frink]

I've noticed there are many tkers on VS Emerald. After a base cap, some folks just like to hang around the cy & have duels. The only real problem I've seen is people tking for LLU's.

[Cyanide]

I don't usually TK anyone unless they intentionally attack me. Example, yesterday I watched some newb named "deathmachine" fire off a bunch of lasher shots at some friendly soldiers and a friendly lodestar. Then I watched him run at me, pull out his knife and purposefully run past me and stab me with the knife. So I wasted him with a sweeper. I don't see any problem with tking somebody who tries to TK me. On the other hand, TKing others because you see them TK somebody else only adds to the problem. It creates a chain reaction if everybody does it. You see somebody get TKed so you tk the tker, then somebody sees you TK, so they TK you, and somebody sees them, so they TK the guy that TKed you. It will never end if you do that. If you only TK the guy that trys to TK you then at least only 2 people are tking. Besides, the guy you saw tking may have simply been getting revenge because the other guy TKed him first. It's pretty arrogant to assume that you are fit to be judge and executioner for everybody else in the game.

[kreeten]

Got another TK'er to add to that list......Bryan253......Emerald NC. Man I hate TK'ers!

:rofl: the power of all-knowing all-seeing and all-banning muhuhahahahaha ;)
\edit\today i was walkni in wele on cyssor and i saw a guy completely wastse another , mostly when i see this i kill the person but this time i asked him, so i did , he told me he did it so the other guy could get a veh,i said ok , but ur lucky i asked u first cuz i was about to waste u man, he says mind ur own damn buisness man , i say when i see a tker tkin i tk them he puts me on ignore , how fucked up is that for me tryin to help out the guy i thought was a helpless guy gettin tked by an air head

[Chaaos]

Should make Shit List... for TKers or just general fucktards to warn other people about em.

[flypengy]

Anyone else remember when people would tk one another to hack a base because they thought it gave you more exp?

[SweetTater]

I always hate when people hang around when I bring an ANT into a base. You never know when you're going to run into someone who either wants to be an ass or has no clue. Usually when I bring an ANT in a base that is waiting for the hack to come through, I'll sit in it to prevent hacking. I'll have at least 3 people come by and attempt to deploy my ant while I'm in it. Then they tell me to deploy it. It doesn't matter if I explain that the base is still enemy held. These brain surgeons think it can be deployed. They usually then shoot the ant a few time, or even better, start knifing the ant which is just annoying as hell. The best laugh I had was when someone was knifing my ant and an enemy infil shot him dead. I thanked the infil and told him to get away before he gets caught.

[TheRagingGerbil]

If I bring an ant in and someone is standing near the ant silo I just run them over. I have been killed far to many times when I get out of my ant. Not much of a problem since they fixed the vehicle lock, but still annoying.

[KIAsan]

Anyone else remember when people would tk one another to hack a base because they thought it gave you more exp?

I remember that, and it still happens everyonce in a while. I don't hack anymore, since I usually cert as a heavy grunt. However, I still see the occasional piss fight about that was my hack, I was here first. It usually doesn't turn into a tk fest though.

Usually, most tks these days occur after the base is captured, and the troops are bored, waiting for the hack to complete. Don't know why they don't just move on to the next battle (I'm talking about the jokers out in the courtyard, who aren't guarding anything, just grab assing and shooting each other).

[Terrangrunt19]

worst tk ever some dumb $hits bombed our own base!!! then they got shot down by an enemy:lol:

[Warborn]

Wow, a thread from 2003.

[Hamma]

Holy crap.. Did you need ot bump 30 old threads?
