Is there going to be one of these topics every three weeks?
Phantoms - Zapp - 10-27-2009
Someone that's been here for less than 2 months already caught on. The answer is 'yes'. Because when people that want in don't get in because their reasons were all wrong, they complain about us being an elitist power-monger admin-club that goes around in our 'pwn' ships PVPing Sirius up the ass, and refuse to budge on the point because they weren't allowed to do the same.
The other people that flame are the traders who, instead of attempting to RP back, just slammed cruise and spammed CMs, or failing that opened fire with little or no attempt at RP. The other day I logged on my Phantom to get some RP, and inside a minute of undocking the first trader I stopped hit cruise, then opened fire when I CD'd him again. It's not fun for us. I'd much rather not rape a transport sideways in my Phantom ship, or Wild ship, or Nomad ship, or Terrorist ship. It's just not that much fun (though with transport buffs, it is a frustrating challenge anymore, depending on what you stop). I'd much prefer they stop, RP a bit, and we all go along with our day.

Yes.

And then of course you get entire fleets chasing a single LF (*cough*). That gets old fast.
Good ol' Labraid.
I actually managed to say hello to three Phantoms on my LR-. I didn't die, either. In fact...nobody...shot...anything...
Except NPCs. Had a nice chat about taking candy from babies, or something like that.
Fun.

Im just saying the Nomads have real RP, Where did the phantoms come from, Planet Zordon? Of course, what is *real* RP and what is fake is completely point of view.You know, I'm rather insulted. Just been called a PVP whore, a loler, and found out my RP is invalid all in one day. Try RP'ing with the next Phantom you come across.
Very disappointing Cam, very disappointing.

Both traders in my convoy RP'ed, I think the pantoms were just looking to kill some innocent traders.
I dont care if I dissapoint you, Actaully I dont care what anyone thinks, Its all point of view.
We talked for +10minutes, and what did they say? "I ran out of sheep to kill, and I need someone's blood to spread around the system and make it less dull"
Yeah, Thats a REAL great RP reason. Not all Phantoms' are lolers, Just that one in the osiris that was camping outside a jumphole loling in system chat. I hope you're insulted. Phantoms, Like terrorists that appear to be PvPwhores, do have quality RP, However the few screw it up for them. Don't complain about getting ganked in a Light Fighter, It happens to us all, its inevitable and sometimes deserved.
Anyways, If you want to join a faction who RP's last and PvP's first, Go ahead. Good luck. Just dont cry when I make a "So you want to buy a bomber?" topic.

Looks like you just want to complain because they killed you.
Phantoms - Camtheman Of Freelancer4Ever - 10-27-2009
Nah, Ive seen other loling Phantoms, He should actually move around and spout propaganda, like that SCRA my RBS talked to. Now THAT was fun. I wish it could be more like that and less threats about killing you, If you cannot fight back and at LEAST deal damage, Then it is not fun/fair for one side.
My angry flames are over. Lets be happy, Shall we?
Phantoms - mnbnbf - 10-27-2009
Oh what's that? Phantoms destroyed your traders once? Phantoms? ATTACKED AND KILLED SOMEONE? WHILE ACTING LIKE THEY WERE INSANE? POSSIBLY MAYBE ALMOST AS IF THEY WERE TERRORISTS OR SOMETHING?!
Alert the presses, it's what they do. Killing innocents randomly IS part of their RP. Why do some live and others die? Because it is the whim of the Phantoms. They are VERY powerful beings, and they know it. Humans are below them, they are a lower species.
I've personally encountered Phantoms twice, and was killed by them twice. The first time it was my fault (I put all my RP chat into group chat, give me a break it was my first week) and the second time, we RP'd for about ten minutes or so before he killed both of us. He gave us opportunity for escape, but we, being greedy little traders, didn't take it, and were killed. *shrug*
It's the way of the world that there will always be those more powerful than you. Accept it, move on, RP with them, and maybe you won't be killed next time. :)

They're PVP'whores.

Im sorry, Im just *a little* angry after an OSIRIS attacked my wittle trader.

If I could swear on these boards, I assure you I would be using one four letter that starts with an F. The only Osiris left in the Phantoms would be me, so kindly go f... jump off of a cliff. This is indeed a personal insult. I don't see how sitting at a jump hole talking in system chat is a problem, but you seem to think it is.
YOU of all people. You calling ME a PvPwhore? I vaguely remember your battleship being generally hated in Rheinland for months and months and months because YOU. WERE. THAT.
Loling in system chat, you say I do? Show me some proof or don't make such baseless and false accusations.
Maybe I did kill your transport with my Osiris while sitting out in the middle of nowhere near a random jump hole. Supporting the houses with it, were you? Hauling legal cargo to legal bases? Tsk, tsk. Regardless, I don't remember killing a transport that talked to me for >10 minutes ever. My memory is pretty good.
And I have NEVER. EVER. "LOL'D" in system chat.
Been a while since I've agreed with Dab. Sheesh.
