Finally, Pvp Is Default

YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE LEFT

I'll keep my opinion of this ruling out of this post to lend no bias at all to my following question:

 

The Green Knight and the Red Knight have both consented to an interaction of roleplay fighting with each other. They proceed to engage each other in battle for a few minutes. Then, the Black Knight arrives to assist his comrade the Red Knight, but he does not want to emote combat. He performs the required roleplay, and proceeds to engage the Green Knight in PVP while the latter is roleplay engaged with the Red Knight.

 

1) What can be done to avert this scenario with this recent ruling?

 

2) SHOULD anything be done to avert this scenario?

If the two original players decided on RP - it remains RP. It doesn't change because the new player comes along - by joining he's agreeing to what they're doing.

Thank you. I recommend you state this in the addendum to the server rules.

The fact that you're saying "It's time to make the server better again" Shows that you INDEED have the Closed-Mind You think Pvp is the thing that will take the server out of the cesspool it's in. We'll Let's see how your opinion differs from mine. Oh wait. 

Oh wow, and you're still playing on this. Fine.

 

Were you here back in Aegis? No you weren't.

Have you experienced a PVP default LotC? No you haven't.

Was Lotc a faction server during Aegis? No it wasn't.

Was Aegis better than both Asulon and Anthos, despite most builds  looking like poop and piss? Yes it was.

Has the server slowly declined since RP default was introduced? Yes it has.

Has the staff finally decided to correct the mistake that led to the decrease of enjoyment of the server? Yes they have, but oh wait, whiny close-minded folk still linger.

 

I'm not going to sugarcoat anything, I am so tired of all the bullshit, baseless assumptions and claims you lot regurgitate time and time again,which ultimately serves to hinder the progress of the server. If you can't cope with change, if you're not willing to try something new (to you), if you're just going to whine until you get your own way, then all I have to say is, get off the server.

 

Not going to argue anymore with you, you get my point (hopefully), and either leave, or more logically decide to actually /try/ something, before bashing.

Last time I checked, this was a roleplay server, not a PVP server. Changing this to PVP is completely unfair to those who have shitty computers, since they will lag all over the place unable to fully function themselves in a pvp battle. And take this into consideration... A knight and a peasant fight, taking it into the default PVP, and the peasant wins the pvp fight, would that make any valid sense at all? RP fighting makes more sense in situations like this. Also, this conflicts with characters that are halflings, animals, and children. PVP default makes literally little to no sense on this server whatsoever. 

 

But I guess I don't fully understand this change since I have only been around for a few months. It would be great if you can write a new guide and such about PVP default, since I have no clue on how to apply this on the server since I am not a pvp'er. I'll try it out i suppose.

It'd probably be good to, didn't think of it initially.

Nexus solves this issue.

 

BUT, if my opinion is allowed I do say I like RP combat better than PvP combat simply because I can't immerse myself with Minecraft mechanics. Left click, left click, eat food, left click and jump around, maybe shoot arrows. It's binary and repetitive in my opinion. You can't block, roll, parry, counter, or anything like that, just whoever has the better items and buffs will win. I'd support PvP much more if there was a way that Minecraft would immerse its players into combat other than buffing your items and armor, and left clicking to your heart's content. I'm all for change though, but pardon me if I'm not optimistic.

I shall admit, I'm more than excited to see how this turns out.

 

I've had somewhat of an epiphany in remembering that this is minecraft, a game with a large portion of its mechanics based around PvP, and I'm certain every single one of us knew this was a feature when we purchased the game. Granted I've been a big RP supporter in the past, and I have no doubt that I'll continue to favour this over PvP, but I'll likely be doing it amongst friends, which is potentially a more relaxing and less stressful experience. And this works nicely with the new antagonist system too.

 

I predict far fewer ban reports.

As a representative of the group of people who get a sub-par connection to the server, pvp-default is going to hurt. I play a halfling anyways, so it's not like I'll actually win a fight in rp either.

Sure you can win a fight as a halfling! All you need is an Elven shortsword, a mithril shirt, and a magical ring that turns you invisible :D.

Sadly, I dont really agree on the reasons why were "testing" this (pvp default) :( , but shucks I'm up for a lil try…

Do I need to fill out an application to be a protagonist?
