The fact that the player did not shoot alo in that deathrace when he had the chance showed a request that he be treated the same way. It doesnt take much to notice that all the npcs are getting killed and no pcs are attacking each other. The idea of saying truce in the beginning is absurd. This is an unspoken rule that i noticed my first few deathraces. Im not einstein in no way shape or form and i noticed that right off the bat, youd figure alo could pick it up as well. the way he attacked in that deathrace showed his true side.

We can discuss this over and over till the cows come home. Its not going to change anything. ALO has shown how he likes to play, and that is PvP. I respect that and will act accordingly.

The issue at hand is will this cause people to create an account, act like a totally new player, then borrow a car and attack someone intentionally? If that happened, then yes darkwind would really suffer because no one would risk good characters on scouts with new players. The new people would suffer greatly.

That did not happen here. Task is a known player and decided alo was a target and attacked, fair and square. The method can happen in real life... an assassin infiltrate a gang and take out the leader or anyone with good skills. This has been happening for all recorded time.

just lick your wounds and live and learn alo.

besides, bad mouthing and making up stories about someone is physcological warfare, the USA does it to others just as much as Iran does to the USA. But that is a whole other story!

the Idea that ALo and lord humongous was the same person has its merits. As I said, it may be wrong but that lord humongous account belonged to someone that had another account. LH popped out of nowhere talking about DW should be more PvP as alo was talking about it. The fact that LH had buzzers and apaches with CCs and ATGs was suspicious because no one had seen LH scouting or buying weapons from vets to have such power so quickly. I'll say it again, there is no absolute proof that alo created the account, only circumstantial evidence. I will not act like the US government and create thought police laws! LOL Just a note on that, look up the conspirarcy laws created to fight mobsters and how they are STILL being used today.

BUT I WILL STICK UP FOR ALO in one way. If he wishes to play PvP and take out people by hunting them in deathraces, combats, or scouting for player squads then bravo!
Be consistant and play the game as you see fit within the rules. Just dont post how unfair you are treated when revenge is exacted upon you!

this is a heated debate, i dont see many other posts getting replies as quickly as this.

very true latte.
alo and task were there originally to help attack pirates, not fight each other. this caused the pirates to have even more of an advantage than before. You will have many more gang members and more cars latte. Just know in the future how task may operate and be ready.

One has to remember that in this game, the loss of all gang members and cars does not mean the end. I agree losing a 80 gunner with 200 leadership is depressing (hint hint bansi LOL) BUT, you will have more characters get to those levels and get better cars. If you notice, the live and learn aspect in darkwind is essential. Lose as many gang members as you want, you will just make more!!!

I'm too lazy to read the whole text so I'll just comment on the first bit. The point of a DR is to win, if that involves shooting at the guy who is currently winning, then that is ok. I believe its slightly different from attacking someone in your scouting Squad.

Well its a DR what do you expect? Its the whole idea behind a DR. Next youll get pissed at someone shooting the ball in the basket at basketball? Besides its not like he killed him is it.

Oh and on the lord homongous thingie, I can confirm that wasnt alo :rolleyes:.

Its not the attack by task thats annoying, but more the part where certain nerds with their panties in a bunch make it their life goals to demonize us in DW.

Just stop spreading rumours during tea time like some old hag and play the game.

i was assainated for my bounty and hero points by alo and xander in a combat even tho they were on my team.

in fairness to alo he paid for the cars repairs about 25k yeah i didnt like it and will try to get him in dr or combats. but what bothers me is that if future pvp needs to be balanced not many can stand up to arls firepower unless it is balanced

i think tasks actions are justified and im happy to consider him an ally but im not sure i would do it that way when alo or xander see me in a dr they know my intentions and i have cursed them and apologized for it

arl may be disliked but they are skilled players who want whats best for dw even tho were on the opposite sides i reapect them for there skill and helping the community grow

OK Alo, if this post was aimed at me, speed and seiler in particular, lets have it out....

I bitched a LONG time ago aabout how you and Xander manipulated gameplay to your advantage. I was right in almost every accusation against you Alo. You know it, I know it and now that everyone else sees how you like to play, the others are making their own choices on how to deal with you.

What ever you may think, there are no covert whisperings going on about you Alo. Sure speed and I have IM'd eachother but in no way was it planning your demise or anything so grandiose.

I condone Tasks' actions, hell, I applaud them!.... You should know that as a realistic game, there 'could' be gang members who hold a grudge against certain gangs or gang mambers. Luring them into a scout to assassinate them is just one avenue of gameplay.

Alo you have used the grey area of gameplay as justification for your own style of gameplay FOR A LONG TIME!

Now that someone else does exactly the same thing and it's something YOU think is against the rules, you go griping about it calling "FOUL"!

Quitcher bitchen and take your medicine!.

Oh xander, we 'nerds' didn't demonize you..... You both did that all by your lonesome selves.

Get used to that target cross on you ARL....... Hope you like the way I play the game!

I personally find this rather hilarious. Like JD said, I myself am in no way masterminding some kind of plot against ARL.

There was a post in the marshalls forum questioning ARLs marshall status that JD wrote and Sam posted for him. Here was my response to it verbatim (so I don't know why you're calling me out on this thread. This pretty much sums it up for me. Maybe you didn't read it?)

Quote:
Well I for one have seen what I consider to be unscrupulous behavior on more than one occasion. Mostly it's been some backstabbing during races or them bumping points up for each other. Which is all fine and great and works within the game. But I'm sure others get more upset by stuff like this. However there have been a few things that totally pissed me off. But that's my own personal issue. But if that type of thing would have happened to a non-marshal or a noob, that behavior could definitely hurt the game. All of this is still not enough to get badges taken away since the Marshall code is basically about helping new players, answering questions and not engaging in verbal abuse wars.

edit: and to the ARL boys, things like calling a squad "Team ARL Evan Police" doesn't really help relations either. You're not all that innocent. Keep stirring the pot.




And people could be responding to your general attitude perhaps:

All this sounds good and exiting as usual with new features...

It'd probably be a good idea to make a seperate forum for camp discussions soon, meanwhile I've posted my nefarious plans to take over Evan in the subscribers forum: ARGH (manic laughter)

I condemn this kind of attitude.

I may be - and I'm certainly - old-fashioned, but if you are part of a team or a squad, you play with the team or move away. If it doesn't matter to other, it does to me and the gang I represent: Road Ronins.

Anyway people complaining about Alo post, should have known, such thing would surface some day. There were too many signs, unfriendly posts and messages in this forum and the lobby.

"manipulated gameplay to your advantage" interesting choice of words there, care to elaborate on how gameplay is manipulated to someones advantage... Semantics aside all you're doing is saying we cheat, stretching it out for a few paragraphs without presenting any concrete arguments or evidence, It's time to call bull#### on that.

Did I claim task did anything against the rules? Did I cry foul? No, so bull#### yet again!

How silly of little old me, I completely forgot the bit where we went around telling everyone how we cheat, exploit and are untrustworthy backstabbers who can't be trusted and all that other crap that keeps popping up like Lord Humongous being my multi account (I hadn't heart that one before).

Not man enough to take responsibility?

I think your way relies too heavily on Glue Cannons, Heavy Lie Guns and 3.2L Rumour Mills. :p

I assumed guilt by assocication, I was going to say "and probably Speedealer" in my initial post but I edited it out to be shorter.

That also pissed me off, but I'll explain it:
Team ARL Evan Police is a parody of the titular group from the movie "Team America World Police", we are police because we mainly hunt pirates. Though we do pull over the occasional trader carvan for having broken tail lights and such, lots of "random gunfire" in the desert so the tail lights get shot out you see... heh heh heh...

hmmm...interesting you basically chose to not address what I consider to be your biggest infraction. I'll sum it up for those who don't want to spend time reading thru the lines of the in-character post I made in the gateway tavern forum.

1. I negotiated a price with wolfeater via pm online to buy an ambulance from him.
2. Wolf accidentally pm'd the password to alo.
3. Alo kept said ambulance
4. I complained to him but he wouldn't give it back to me. And he proceeded to offer me a lesser ambulance - smaller engine, no weapons on it (unlike wolf's) and all for a HIGHER price.

That's a class 1 ahole move in my book. And sorry if I don't understand your 'humor'. Must be a cultural thing.

I offered the stripped down version because the original one had chassis damage and I already set it to repair, I initially offered it at a higher price, but then dropped to the original price, you should've mentioned the weapons back then instead of saying something like, I paraphrase "Leave me alone or I'll diss you so hard I'll have to give up my marshal badge" when I pm'ed you the pass to the (weaponless) ambulance in somerset with the original price. So I did what you said and left you alone. You had full right to be upset there, but I left it up for a day or so anyway in case you cooled down.

If you've gotten over it and changed your mind and want to buy it for the original price (with weapons) then say so, otherwise I don't see the point of being angry about something, while refusing to fix it.

(and even though I might be harsh about it at the moment, I made the initial mistake and it's not as much your fault as it is mine so I apologize)

Well I guess it's my turn as the "cooler head" to help out here....

As I see it Alo and Xander have never done anything against the rules or even the spirit of DW, this is supposed to be a gritty post-apoc world of danger, betrayel and the making of friends and alliances to survive in a death-around-every-corner world....

What seems to freak most peeps out seems to be how well they work together as a team.....

ARL is DW's first real guild and their co-operation seems to be freakin alot of vets out.

Team-work as we all know is very important to the survival of our gangs and ARL has simply taken it to a higher level previously seen in the game.

My hat's off to them in succeeding in building a formidable team.

As far as duping yer target into a scout to ambush em, firing on a "team-mate" in a combat to settle a score, these are all believable scenarious in this dark world Sam has presented to us and have been paralled in popular movies, especially in the Western genre.

And Speed I seem to remember us plotting the same things against Shark when he ticked us off so it's not like it hasn't been done before :p

These actions may not seem "honourable" but it is a survival of the fittest world in which we live and u must choose your allies wisely.

Since there are no real rules breaches here it's better that some lay off the cheating charges and simply accept that ARL has grasped the gritty world scenario better than some.

You may love em or hate em but that is your own path to choose and after all what kind of post apoc world would this be if we all got along ageeably and didn't shoot each other...i'll tell u in 1 word: BORING!

Thanx to ARL for adding abit of spice into the game and I hope certain vets can get over their pettiness and just go and have fun, either by avoiding or blowing em away at every opportunity B)

and as far as this silly bit is concerned that is simply a player vs player disagreement, maybe an insight into Alo's character maybe not....a warning to all to be careful when u PM for sure!

insight into character is exactly right toe. And thats why I choose to be upset with him and why I choose to be against him. And as far as shark goes, well he was a tool. And tools deserve a smack down.  :p

And as far as that incident is concerned Alo, ya, I did manage to not get into a flaming war with you cuz that's just lame. And I did say something along those line of not wanting to lose my badge. I respect it and the game and want to help noobs when I can.

Oh now you offer after you open up a giant can of worms. LOL, no thanks, I don't need the ambulance that bad. And don't try to BS me like you didn't see the weapons on the ambulance. Puleeze. Don't insult me like I'm some rube. Your apology falls on deaf ears at this point.

Ive seen the actions in the DR twisted and forgotten. YES a deathrace is just that, death.. HOWEVER the person was behind ALO and had plenty of oppurtunity to blast him with rockets but did not... when said person passed ALO he opened up with rockets... who does this kind of playing?

so yes its all fine the way to play DW and so forth... but the original post to this whole thing is ALO bitchin about being killed subversively! He is complaining about getting back stabbed when he was guilty of it WAY BEFORE!

as far as the ambulance goes.. whoa! That is definately backstabbing to the nth degree. just more proof of the way alo acts and then when the tables are turned, he bitches!

lord humongous account was always brought up that there is no proof it was alo... just circumstance made it look that way.

so basically ALO.. just shut up and this thread will die when you stop responding with attempts to straw man attack the issue

I did see the weapons and tried to screw you over a bit by taking the hgat and initially demanding a higher price, well done on not taking any of that crap from me, good for you, except you still don't have the ambulance because all that stands between you and the ambulance now is your own stupid pride or some kind of need to feel morally superior about the whole ordeal.

I don't get why you'd whine about it in the first place? Just fishing for other people's empathy and compassion instead of trying to solve your problem? I find that pathetic.

If you're not willing to give me a chance to set things straight then as far as I'm concerned it's your own fault and you shoud kindly stfu about it.

I'm still sorry for being such an ass about it right now but from my side it looks like:

Me: *ninjas ambulance*
Speed: Waah
Me: "You can have your ambulance, for a price!"
Speed: Grrr...
Several years pass
Speed: Waah-Waah
Me: "Take your ambulance"
Speed: Waah
Me: "YOU SUCK, TAKE YOUR AMBULANCE AND STOP CRYING #!"¤!)=!!"

Silly stuff.

I know all this doesn't make taking my offer exactly easy, but you're not exactly making it easy for me to give it back to you either :p
I'm not going to beg you any more to take it off my hands so this is your last chance to drop all the ego #### and take it back.
