You take things out of conduct here Freya... I was giving that I prefer RP fighting over Pvp...

 

I enjoy all sorts of RolePlay, I adapt and change and give balance to most of it and live with it having an enjoyable experience and helping players out... this is all in small text here although try not to take things further from speech as they were not implemented towards doing so.

 

Edit;

 

~Battles?. they can stay the same, to a Pvp aspect although that is not where I come into play or do contribute to battling or fighting inside of them.

I didn't know you could power-game in a fight when it's PvP. Lol

Metagaming was also pretty much impossible in PVP. You could call people over on TS I guess, but PVP fights are much shorter than RP fights so that happened a lot less often so less reports.

Mostly mechanics abuse. Climbing waterfalls, PGing birds, things like that.

I understand the climbing waterfalls bit but what does PGing birds mean?

Pros and Cons of Rp/PVP

Rp Pros: Your char can have more customization. When you get a custom made weapon. It has significance in combat. Rather than just mc sword. Maybe it's two handed and has spikes. Those kind of details don't really matter in PVP. 

Rp Cons: Often a fight takes way to long. Sometimes the other person types really slow. There are a lot of looc arguments. When ever there is a group on group fight. Emotes get really confusing really fast.

PVP Pros: Fair/No Power gaming. Fast. Simple.

PVP cons: Based off of PVP skills and buffs rather than the actual character's skills.

Sure, you're welcome to think that, but the "This is a RP server, not a PVP server" holds no water since LOTC was never a PVP server even when we had PVP default, and it never will be.

Starting to wonder if people here even enjoy Minecraft.   I get what yah saying.

I actually detest minecraft's mechanics.. Only reason I continue to play the game is because of this server. lol

 

I detest minecraft mechanics as much as the next. It could be so better. I only play minecraft for this server.

 

Despite this I want pvp default. Less stress, less complaining, less time consumed. I look forward to seeing less combat rp coming from this. I honestly and truly believe that this is the best option for the server. I don't even play a combat oriented character atm, but this sounds like a superb idea. I've wished for this for a while.

Y can't everyone just get along and learn to pvp and rp D:

I have 100 kb/ps upload and download... (1024 kb is 1 mb...) And I run MC at approximately 15 FPS with freezes.

I want to ask... Do I get an exception? Even if I was good at PVP, I can't due to my pc and internet...

<\3

Will the Plugin think of us?

Just avoid combat. Combat should be only 30% of the servers possibilty. There are plenty of other things to do than become a grand master swordsmen.

Too late. I'm a nordic squire/swordsman on a character and a Barbaric killer villain Doonforge ob the other, all because I know how to Rp fight.

“Do not think of knocking out another person's brains because he differs

in opinion from you. It would be as rational to knock yourself on the

head because you differ from yourself ten years ago.” - Horace Mann.

 

We are getting along, in a fashion. I'd rather have the community like this, where everyone has their own (some admittedly dumb) opinions and thoughts, than some dysto-utopian group where we all agree on everything and chant "We are one. One are we." continually. Some things can be improved, eyes can be opened to new possibilities, and we can advance and improve. All whilst bickering. As long as it's not offensive, people can argue as much as they like.

Well as for the Barbarian, you would need pvp regardless of whether rp is default or not, raiding is always pvp regardless. Though how about this, make a compromise. Aim to find people who feel the same on your regards. You have to remember, even as a knight/squire there are plenty of other options for rp. You wont be involved in combat 24/7. When you are involved in combat, make compromise. Try not to go for lethal combat.

 

To me, it sounds like you would be using pvp regardless of whether this system was in place. Barbarians raid, and squires protect. All this system does is take away the middle man and allow for less bickering. Compromise is key right now

There are just alarmist reactions from both sides.

 

No, LOTC will not be a PVP server.  It never was.

 

Yes, we did see PVP Ban Reports in Aegis.  This was also because you dropped all your items on death.  If someone Non-RP PKed you, you lost items you weren't supposed to. Some of those items could be worth a fortune. 

 

With a knockout plugin, if you get defeated in PVP.  You don't explode into items.

 

 

Times have changed.  The players have changed.  Don't rely on the past for how the future will be.

That's actually quite the opposite - PvP is much quicker.

Actually, I miss said that. I meant Default PvP, I apologize.

[Lago 2572]

What about it? What are you trying to say? xD

 

That it's not making a desicion and then backing down into a referendum as someone said it was, it's just a mixup and a poll was the plan all along. Or something like that.
