"Ganking" Complaints (OORP)

[Thunderer]

That would be hypocritical, since the RHA would be ganked, and apparently most of those who are irritated, are irritated because the RHA ganked them.

If you have earned bad reputation for doing questionable things over and over again ,dont get upset when people start to avoid you , and loging off as soon they smell you.
You brought this on your self , it is Karma, you reap what you sow.

Hell if I was ganked by any faction or indies, I will be bringing everyone I can down with me. I just say its part of the game and people need to stop wining and arguing about it and just play discovery freelancer as it is.

This is hilarious, nobody wants to make your faction dead. Lets be honest: Nobody wants to fight peoples when they have like 3 or 4 times more the numbers. Its not the others fault that your faction dies/evolves that way, its the way you play. Personally i dont care about this, ganks are normal yes, but i cant enjoy fights wich are unwinnable. Have your fun, its still a game. Every person that plays disco has the right to enjoy the experience in the way he likes it the most, so stop trying to force others to play different by putting on pressure in the social media. You get what you deserve, and this is at the moment just nothing.

1 [RM] member logged, and 4 [RHA] + 1 indie came for him. System Neu Berlin. they blocked all gates and waited to catch him 5 v 1. I dont even think its your fault but numbers speak for themself. Therefore Im in your signature as well. - Elbe

To bring an unrelated incident into the realm of focus, let's reflect on an encounter that occurred a few days ago. A group of GMG Fighters decided to raid Frankfurt and Munich, obviously because of the active war. RM had a gunboat online when the ships were returning from Munich, it proceeded to log off and immediately swap to a Bismarck. Okay nice. What followed was a 8v5, with the RM side having 6 snubs to counter the 5 GMG fighters, as well as 1 battleship and 1 gunboat actively participating. Predictably, the moment the Hessians logged on and the concept of tasting ones own medicine became a very real possibility, all these ships vanished into thin air. As much as I'll agree that fighting the Hessians isn't always fun, you really aren't much better at this than you claim to be.

sometimes because of personal hate like that against the likes of Tanith (Riel)

It's almost like intentionally breaking the rules, insulting people, and generally acting like an unstable and toxic human being earns you a negative reputation. Who'd've thunk it?!

Actually, there were 5GMG, and 3 KNF. more KNF and ikn logged and RHA was otw to rofflstomp us with ur kusarians

Not to mention the 2 other caps in their group on the way to Frankfurt... I would stay with the facts, and it was obvious that RHA and KNF wanted to meme RM.

This attitude is in no way shape or form healthier than "ganking". This behavior is driving the wedge even further apart between playerbases playing in the same House. People on both sides are starting to hold personal grudges and try to deny it when they are called out on it, thinking that simply logging off is going to solve problems while it simply creates bigger ones. Not to mention that logging off because you see someone logging on the player list is technically Metagaming.

See above statement of Metagaming.

There was only one [RHA] online at the time, me, in a group with an indie battleship that was already there. You broke off from the fight and logged off the moment I logged in and most KNF weren't present or even online until after you had already left. (They ended up patrolling Kusari by the way and I have no idea who any of them were)

Oops.

The problem RM is having isn't being ganked. I logged on a couple of nights ago and your two online members died to a single indie Hessian before I even managed to cruise from Kaiserslautern to the nearest trade lane. Most fights I have been involved with since joining the faction have been close to even numbers. I can only think of one or two instances where numbers were majorly imbalanced and we are often times (slightly) outnumbered.

And don't forget, as soon as one side starts bringing gunboats or a ton of caps numbers go out the window. The asymmetrical balance of caps make a perfectly even fight almost impossible to define, let alone achieve.

You can try to spin like you are taking some great moral standpoint all you like but in reality you just don't like losing and aren't willing to do anything about it. Kicking a member out of your faction for criticizing your lack of coordination during a fight is all the proof of that anyone needs of that.

Don't bring metagaming on that scale into it otherwise you're not allowed to log and seek them out using the player list either.

It's not enforceable at all and looks quite ridiculous especially nowadays.

As I was saying - technically.
