A revelation

I just had a revelation.

I think a big factor in our actions and desires to kill all serens who annoy us, whenever we can is frsutration.

Thats right, a big health dose of frutration, stemming from influencing. They influnence good, but its always sanc and theh when you finally get one alone to kill, you get whored out because they wait to jump you. thats one of the main reasons I mean, right or wrong I get so frustrated in groups that all I want to do is kill them all at a later date.

Influencing is so damn frustrating and annoying, sanctuary needs to be somehow downgraded and nerfed, you have your peaceful villages. Have it last less time, or have a constant drain of power or -something- It would releive a lot of stress.

OF course the other option is to keep frustrating the hell out of magnagora and watch us keep hitting out like we have been doing...

to pre-empt the bitching and arguing this will create, i'm only suggesting stuff to make the game more fun...and less griefy. No, we will not change our attitude and i can't help gettin frustrated and taking it out on serens later.

Problem is, if influencing becomes a killfest again then we'll have even more frustration and people making the other side pay when out of influencing again.
You're all human beings, with human reactions. I know this will happen tongue.gif
I, I am an elf, I don't get frustrated if there's a tree nearby wink.gif

So, Murphy, essentially...

Magnagora no win influence with squishy inside head...
Magnagora smash!
Iridiel2005-12-02 16:48:45
OMG Richter you're a genious!!

But they all went for wounding and bleeding over smashing nowadays.
Murphy2005-12-02 16:50:05
no, i'd just like people to not be able to whore sanctuary out so much

and influencing while graced, ugh...

And also, half the villages call down total sanc, so it'd be more fair

Your wish was granted. I only used sanctuary three times for about 20 seconds each. The rest of the time, i was slaughtering.

Its true, he spent a good portion of that time chasing me trying to pin me down when I was in FURRY ROLL OF DOOM mode. He even chased me outside of Acknor to try and kill me.

I quite like "whoring" sanctuary. Been watching Shorlen do it, and it's a great tactic.
Nymerya2005-12-02 17:57:01
I use sanctuary, when I'm waiting for things to come up. I think it's fine how it is. Go and run after the people who like fighting, not those who are there before they don't want to be CDF.

What I -do- agree with, is that you should not be able to influence whilst graced.

not why i like to grief, thats not what its about you tool.

Its about the underlying reason that we can be as spiteful and hit as hard as we do, cause of the frustration
Malicia2005-12-02 19:33:18
Basically, it's that you don't like to lose. Threatening to hunt Serens on Astral because we were successful during an influencing run is lame, but acceptable. Everyone wants to push pk off Prime and there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to. Let's just not focus on reasons so much. Does anyone really need a reason to be an ass? We all have our days. Do whatever makes you happy.

Mags/Glommies influence while graced.

Mags/Glommies influence in sanctuary.

It's not just the Seren or Celestians. Just wanted to make that clear. Hell, even Daevos has done it. And you'll love sanctuary when you try influencing in a fully demensed village.
Malicia2005-12-02 19:36:47
Oh and I had a revelation too. When Mag is pissed at Serenwilde, they go and raid Celest. Gotta love it.
Murphy2005-12-02 19:37:55
I don't like the fact that mag/glom does it, I think it should be remove altogether.

And you're right, I don't like to lose, I can handle it if i get a fair go but losing AND not getting anything in edgeways is annoying and makes me lash out

also I'm off my Bipolar medication, and onto a different type which could help to explain my extra spicy replies here

They why do you like to grief?
Narsrim2005-12-02 21:27:39
One of the things that I think is destined to be a pisser is this continual notion of "pushing" PK-off-Prime.

This would wonderful IF there was a bloody reason behind it. There isn't. The ONLY reason to attack someone on Astral (and this isn't to say I'm any better) is to get back at someone for something they did else where.

That's a bit lame and it will get old for a lot of people really fast.

Congratulations - that's how it feels to be a Celestian. rolleyes.gif

I agree that sanctuary is a bit unfair. It can be used to make a demesne, quite literally, unbreakable, among numerous other things. Perhaps have it (and crusade, to be fair) last only 5 minutes or so after being set up, assuming you remain in the room, and cost 5-10 power?
