View Full Version : Awkward

Does anyone else find it awkward when you're camping something and over time people show up and just sit next to you in your camp? It happens a lot to me when I'm camping the AC or in Droga, people just wordlessly plop down next to me and just sit there for hours. Over time I'll accumulate 2-3 silent watchers. It's just so awkward. Not only that but it makes me feel defensive. I feel like if I look away for a second some asshat will nab my mob.

Yeah the benefit of camping the ac for 9 hours, fighting it, and having a wizard pop you and take your ring. Gee sounds like fun.

maybe you shouldn't let the wizard pop you??
idunno i'd say the solution is to play a pvp server and be a better player if you're crying about camps

It may be maddening for the staff to try to deal with the blue drama, but at least blue players don't actively try to destroy their server.

You're making neckbeard love to your porker girlfriend when you see a hideous retard outside your window twitching and fogging up the glass. From what I gather, red player solution is to go outside and fight the retard, otherwise you're a pussy.

To get this topic back on track, yes it can be awkward. Before Kunark Hadden was the worst. Ten minutes before his spawn you'd have a cheering section form up on the hill behind you. Only they didn't cheer so much as silently disapprove that you are there.

Golden tip for camping any camp... DO NOT put your anon tag on.
People check /who from other zones, see nobody there.. and then turn up.
Oh, there's a 55 necro sat in Qeynos Hills... ho hum. Probably camping Hadden then, I won't bother :p

The destruction came in the form of a new teams server being announced, a lot of players just decided to stop playing...particularly the levelling ones :p
Stop hatin pvp, there is something quite awesome about this:

Doesn't change the fact that the community on red99 is awful though.
On topic, know the kind of people you're talking about. Particularly obnoxious since they could easily KS your crap and gate out, and you'd have a hard time proving you were there campin it/wasnt afk/whatever alignment of moons that justified the other guy panic spamming a conflag wand on it immediately on spawn.

That was just the final straw. The vast majority of the other weight on the camel's back came from the misanthropic sociopath red players who have griefed hundreds of people off the server since its launch and who fill the forums and ooc with a new version of leet speak drivel.
Posters ("box legends y'all") all over red forums are talking about how much fun they are going to have griefing on the teams server until it is dead in only a few weeks. You like red, Swish, and that's fine, but too many of your red comrades are total fucking assholes... THAT is why red is dead and why teams will follow in its footsteps soon enough.

The trick is to take a 3rd person screenshot of you at the camp with a /who sandwiched in timestamps so you have something to petition when your camp gets taken. I've never had to use one on this server though.

We know, and it makes us sad, as expressed by swish's sadface.
I stay optimistic because I have this foolish hope that things will "click" for red and they'll realize what is going wrong with the box. But I know its a pipe dream. also,

I think you're obligated to at least go out there and aggressively tell him to fuck off, right?
unless you're into an audience. in which case, bam, problem solved.

Yeah. Or when someone stares at you while you fight something at a camp.
It's like you don't know if they are waiting to see if you need help or if they are just hoping you die so they can take over.
Does anyone else find it awkward when you're camping something and over time people show up and just sit next to you in your camp? It happens a lot to me when I'm camping the AC or in Droga, people just wordlessly plop down next to me and just sit there for hours. Over time I'll accumulate 2-3 silent watchers.

I don't want to encourage Lulz_Sect but a lot of these threads lately really sound like the equivalent of people complaining about First World problems. "Oh people are sitting too close to me at my camp in an MMO." "Oh there are too many trains in this zone designed to have trains."
Usually when I am camping something and someone shows up I just engage them in conversation. It is awkward for them to sit down and say nothing but isn't awkward for you to sit there watching them for hours?

Does anyone else find it annoying that everytime you want to go camp something it is already camped? I sit and watch silently to annoy people sometimes because I am annoyed that I can never find an empty camp. I especially enjoy it when they get all paranoid that their pixels might be stolen.

this thread is why I joined red
on red jboots are open the majority of the time, no one is out mq'ing it
at lvl 35 I was able to gather a full group we went to lower guk, did ass/sup, then moved to frenzy when our chanter arrived
yes a full group of 35-42 lvl players camping for fbss pretty fun
nothing is really camped and if it is you can contest it
wait till the entire server is full of 60's

I've found that the best way to make friends, is to find someone camping something, then just stand in front of them while they med. If they get up and move, walk to in front of them again.
I haven't actually made any friends, but I maintain hope that it will work some day.

Training isn't legal on red right? There are level ranges in lguk right? How are you going to "contest" a spawn if a 60 is there camping it and you show up with a group of 40s who aren't legally allowed to train him? Ask for someone in range of the 60 to come help you and then heal him from oor? Doesn't sound like much fun to me. Doesn't sound like much PvP to me.

Flamewrath isn't even a Full FE member yet he's been an App for 3 months because he hasn't hit the minimum raid level to earn DKP/go to raids. On his app thread they talk about kicking him because instead of leveling to 60 like they told him too multiple times he just sits in droga all day.
Back on topic, I have people who sit near me all the time when I camp stuff not sure if it's because of the stream though. Doesn't bother me stop being so paranoid/antisocial

This is actually quite true. When I joined I had lots of free time and fully intended to raid often, but this raid scene kind of sucks. Poopsocking is no fun at all, and I refuse to do something in a videogame that is not fun. Also real life happened and I just don't have the time I used to have. Not that you would know or understand what real life is.... Maybe some day I'll explain it to you. Until then enjoy sitting on a spawn for 40 hours and then killing the same dragon over and over again for years to come. I kind of pity you.

They give you plenty of time, I think they recruit lower because most higher levels just want to take the easy rode to pixels and join TMO. The guild itself is alright. Some weird or just plain annoying people, but every guild has that. I just don't find poopsocking enjoyable, I'd rather go to a concert with my friends than sit on VS all fucking night. Go out in search for some ass rather than track sev until I fall asleep at my chair. The raid scene just isn't for me.

Sorry, didn't read all the posts. i found this kinda late apparently.
To be blunt, it's RUDE to just sit down and not say hi but be this LOOMING presence at an obvious camp. When I log into my druid and I see my favorite place is camped I say hello and buff that person and then leave.
It's in my nature to assume that people who just sit there lurking and don't even say hello are just jerks.
