No offence to you LT, but on the forums, I think the one homin that did the most 'trash' talking, or let us call it, "the not so clever use of words", is you. And again, no offence, but you gotta understand that this community doesn't like that talk here, at least we can't stand it without a decent rp background.
I think most of us can understand Raynes point of view, it's basicly the same of yours I think (might be wrong), but Raynes says it waaaay better then you do. So try to fit your ideas in a way "we" (I mean the majority of the Ryzom community) can live with. Don't call us carebears, we all know what you mean with that. Just try to only adress your posts to the ones that like the pvp.
I for one like pvp, but just cause of your attitude, would'nt like to be on your side. Can be me, but srr, I don't want to be on the side with the "trash talking" (you have been worse then any kara imho lately).
I know a lot of homins who haven't been competing in pvp 'cause you were there, and honestly I can understand them. So try to be more moderate, try not to offend, and you'll get lots of support, but this way, you wont get any except some pvp fanatics (I respect them for it though, play Ryzom the way you like....)

Never thought i would get such a long post with my drunk mind, anyway, this are my honest feelings, blame me for it, dont blame my friends or guild for it.

Ruhen, read my definition of carebear and my last post.
Ive said, and i hope everyone read it correctly, that there arent many people in ryzom that i truly believe are carebears. Ive met one.

Dude... your definition is only of importance to you personally. You know "carebear" has a generally insulting meaning, that makes it a flame. Flames are bad mmmkay?

Allow me to demonstrate. "Littletiger is a stupid-head"

"but by stupid-head I mean a guy who likes a bit of PvP action, thats my definition and I am sticking by it!" See how that works?

End the excuses and let it die.

One difference though, I also said in one of my latest posts:
To those who DOES NOT fall under my definition and got offended.
I appologise, that was NOT my intention.

Which SHOULD clarify the trash talk part.

Cycle of this thread for me...

*Reads "To All PvPers"* - Could this be an event?! Maybe something big happened? Or wanting to get together to have more fun.

*Opens thread* (page one of 7) Reads First post, smiles that people are enjoying PvP. grins that they are going to do it again in dyron. Laughs at the carebear comment* - I laughed for 2 reasons. One because (IMO) having "PvP junkies" help make Ryzom more rounded. Two because, As much as the extremist minority do want a "discontent free zone" (and, with many extremists, they are some of the loudest) they wont get it and I knew with 7 more pages to go what this thread would be about

*Reads down to Jy's post, re-reads then re-reads again. Laughs* - Its 9.30 in the morning ;)

*Gets to the "I'm not name calling" part* - saying "to all carebears" might (IMO) be saying to any1 who calls himself a 'carebear' "up yours" (or whatever ;) ) Then I thought, "Why would any1 want to call himself a carebear??"

*Reads flaming posts from Jy ("Before I make a fool of myself making a needless explanation") Crythos ("or perform behind wire mesh") Kos ("I'm not gonna bother. It's all just too easy") Keiko ("you started this stupid thread") * - you say you don’t like PvP but you "forum PvP" and "Forum trash-talk" now surly that’s like invading the universe channel with this type of garbage???

*Gets to Jackoba's Post and agrees* - heh sometimes I swear we share the same brain ;)

*Grins at the "popcorn" semi-thread that’s going on*

*Reads the posts concerning the use of the word carebear* - I thought that most of the community was mature. Mature enough to not be offended by a word (that for all intents and purposes means nothing) and rave on about it..

*Gives soloreaper a hi-5* - ;)

*Reads LT not trying to cover up carebear with what it wasn’t supposed to be, then reads the follow up* - Jy are you saying that you have "no backbone", that you "change" your idea's depending on who you talk to and that you never offend any1? (As well as calling other people this?) - Surely by LT's definition of a carebear NO ONE is one. ( <-- fullstop)

*Reads Praha's posts* - Yup at first I thought that rezzing KoO was a bit silly, but they are making a very good go of it this time. Shame they couldn’t do it under a new banner but this Version of KoO (so far at least) appears to be different to the other previous versions ( more structured and them accepting "newbie’s" into their ranks, being an example of this) and has more hope of staying longer than any of the other version before them.

*Gives spriteh a hi-5* ;)

*Realises he's on the last page, reads ruhen's post* - Sure its nicer when people have a RP reason to state how/why they feel. Having said that, surely I’m not the only one who gets sick and tired of people hiding behind an RP reason to just "trash-talk" someone in a slightly more polite way. This isn’t an RP section, so why RP. If this thread was in the RP section then I would have an issue with it.

*Goes to post*

As long as LT wasn’t calling all the "non-PvPers" Carebears then I don’t see how this got escalated. When will people learn that Ryzom has the potential to be completely open PvP?! (If everyone tagged up) Pretty please will people stop living in "beta" or the time just after release? If you want a game where there’s no PvP I would recommend Seed (oh dear, wait. What happened to that game!!!).

Regards,

And here we have a little care behaviour

And finally I would expect a negative response as conclusive proof of this theory that little Tigger is a carebear.... ;)
tigrus wrote: now, whoever feel the need to be offended by this. PLEASE DO.
But THATS a carebear.

Soooo....the carebear trap is set, now I sit and wait to see how many I can catch . :D

Why post "to all Carebears" if you've only met one?

*waits for wriggling*
