' Wrote:From the Video, they don't seem like RPing at all. Just PewPewing bullies.
I have never seen to date, a decent RPing Phantom, just mean old bullying.
Where are all the good RPing Phantoms hiding?
I'm sure I'm not the only one who would LOVE to RP a Phantom, it seems all the restricted slots are being given to idiots.
That video makes a prime example.
If I had a Phantom I wouldn't pick on people, I'd live up to the Phantom name! Sirius would FEAR ME!
But no, Phantoms in my eyes from what I've seen, are nothing more than bullies...
Where have the awesome Phantoms gone?
How do you propose to make people fear you if you didn't blow them up?
You are judging them, by what someone else has said (which he admitted was doctored), instead of finding out for yourself. Read the faction status post and other relevant threads. Find out who those Phantoms actually are. Then go and READ what they have said and done. Do not judge a phantom, based on what someone else has said on the forums. Instead of jumping on the bandwagon actually find out for yourself. The chances are that you will find out what they are really about instead of getting swept up in jealousy and anger.

EDIT: Also, to the whole "Phantoms are an admin playground" thing... only 2 active Phantoms (forgive me if I'm wrong, I'm not looking at anything right now) are Admins.
How many active Phantoms are there? (for context of your comment.)

That made you fall into the "NO RP" type. "Why are you shooting me?" is a pretty dumb thing to start the RP off with. Why? Because he is a terrorist and he can. That's all the reason you need. But you think he's going to shoot you. And respond as if he's going to. So he does.
Try something else next time. Like...talk. Beg. Tell him about your pet budgie called by the same name as the phantom? Tell him that you need another pair of shorts.
The last thing you should do is run straight off. That is the "kill it" switch.
