Thoughts? IMO the fact one side has to console themselves by calling the other 'carebear' says about all that needs to be said.

And yet again you open a thread by insulting a huge group of people who think differently than you. Good job.

There's a trend with every post you make.

Banned? Is that gonna be the theme for your next string of insults? "whaaa you just started posting, so you must have been banned!". Have you moved on from "you must be 12!"? I just started posting, but you can keep grasping at straws if you'd like :)

primary PvP, about the same, have at least a lvl 40 on a PvP server and on PvE. Although, Horde side seems to be comprised of more mature and older players than alliance. Fighting other players is more fun than fighting a piece of code, IMO. While i do not call those people that do not like PvP "carebears" i do wish that they would stay off of PvP servers or at least stop complaining over /yell "OMG SOMEONE PWNED ME AND IS SPAWN CAMPING ME HELP ME PLZ!!!! WHY DO YOU PEOPLE LIKE THIS?????????!?!!?!?!"

I asked for opinions on PvP vs. PvE and gave mine. You, unfortunately, seem barely literate and instead insult me. Perhaps in a decade or so (at the age of about 20) you'll be able to contribute to online forums, but for now I'd suggest logging off of AOL, turning off the PC, and watching something more geared to your age group - Teletubbies and MTV come to mind, try those first.

im on a pvp server. there are plenty of immature players. i havent played on a pve server, so i cant comment on that. the more pissed off and frustrated i get with other players, the more rewarding the pvp system can be.

Hypocritical drivel, yet again! You don't really contribute to online forums, unfortunately. All I've seen you do is phrase your posts as an insult. Nothing you've written has been civil.

"IMO the fact one side has to console themselves by calling the other 'carebear' says about all that needs to be said."

Obviously that's your opinion, but you phrased it as an insult, as with every single post I've seen you make. Why? Because the other "side" doesn't think the way you do. On top of that, you insist on trying to belittle someone by calling them a "child", over, and over, and over again. You, sir, have the argumentative skills of a chimp.

Edit: It just occured to me; considering your arguments and insults are so incredibly childish, and you insist on continually referring to people as Children, telling people to grow up, etc, I wonder how old you really are...

I'm 27. Interesting that despite numerous queries you still avoid the question, apparently my guess at age hit the nail on the head ;) Your hostile reactions are a case of 'if the shoe fits' - perhaps you need to rethink your griefing ways rather than take offense where there is none to be taken.

If you're really 27, I feel sorry for you and your lack of maturity :(

You know at least how old I am. There's absolutely no reason for me to tell you, nor is there a reason why you should know. As I said before, I'm at least 25; you'll have to accept that. Why do I need to keep repeating myself?

"Your hostile reactions are a case of 'if the shoe fits'"

Your arguments make absolutely no sense. I've said this before and I'll say it again, all you do is grasp at straws for an argument, even if it has no bearing on anything I've said what-so-ever. How exactly does "Your hostile reactions are a case of 'if the shoe fits'" relate to anything I've said? How has what I've said been hostile? It's blatantly obvious that your arguments offer a complete lack of creativity and wit.

Keep up the good work, solider!

I'm at a loss for words, here I'm being called immature for wanting do civilly discuss something on an internet message board and defending myself against ad homs & character attacks by a child in defense of his griefer gameplay style. Yes - a child - I don't believe for a minute, judging by your posts, that you're any older than 15. Your evasiveness about it only cements this guess.

I'm sorry you're not familiar with the 'if the shoe fits' term - it's based on the Cinderella story, which apparently is no longer taught to today's children (or perhaps you got a bathroom pass to go sniff glue the day your teacher went over it). Your own ineptitude at debating doesn't mean my argument makes no sense, however. I'm not going to spell this one out for you, it's far too humorous to see you blame others for your own inability to understand it :laugh:

" for wanting do civilly discuss something on an internet message board"

I guess I have to keep repeating myself. Nothing you've said has been civil. Again, hypocritical bs on your part (as usual) :)

"Yes - a child - I don't believe for a minute, judging by your posts, that you're any older than 15."

There's no way you're "27", judging by the way you insist on calling other's a child. As for my age, you can believe anything you want, Corky.

"I'm sorry you're not familiar with the 'if the shoe fits' term"

Reading comprehension is key. Nothing I've said would justify that comment. Did I say I don't know what the term means? Keep grasping at straws for an argument.

"perhaps you got a bathroom pass to go sniff glue the day your teacher went over it"

Let me rephrase that: "duuhhh let me make another stupid child reference joke so someone reading this may, just may, think I'm witty!... duuuuh"

"Your own ineptitude at debating "
Say with with me... H y p o c r i t e. You have zero debating skills. How do I come to that conclusion? Well, nothing you say has any relevance to anything that I've said prior, period. All of your arguments and insults are nothing more than childish schoolyard banter, i.e. "whaaa, you must be 12 years old!" "whaaa, you're a liar!" Whaaa, go watch MTV and teletubbies!" "whaaa, you must be 12 years old (yet again)". You're like a broken record, useless.

Try again, Corky.

Well it can basically only go back and forth at this point, unless by some miracle you come out of your own little world and learn to read. I suppose we're done. Good luck, with your intellect you'll need it.

"unless by some miracle you come out of your own little world and learn to read"

What this actually means: "duuuh I'm gonna call you illiterate again, because I'm not witty or intelligent enough to think of something relevant or creative to say! Deeeerrrr"

"Good luck, with your intellect you'll need it"

See above.

Good job Forest, your "debating skills" (cough) are something to be proud of!

No reason to keep going back and forth; nothing will come of it.

Gurk's blatant trolling aside, I voted that I am primarily PVP and find PVE servers are more mature. On average, PVP servers tend to be a magnet for more of the jerks in the community than the PVE servers do. And because of this, more mature people tend to want to avoid them and thus find themselves on a PVE server instead. With most MMO's having a chance for PVP even on PVE servers, there's no problem with this. PVP servers tend to offer the chance for ganking, something only an immature gamer would want to do.

Possibly more immature as a whole. Personally I wouldn't know; I don't play on a PvE server. However, maturity in game really doesn't come into play in WoW, since you can't communicate with the opposing faction, unlike EQ, where you could sh!t talk up a storm.

Ganking, depends on what your definition of Ganking is. I don't see anything wrong with a group of players killing a solo player while xping, which is the common definition for the term, I think. It's part of the game, and honestly, everyone knows what they're getting into when they create a character on a PvP realm. People can expect to be killed, even if the odds are unfair. It has nothing to do with maturity; it's just the way the game is. Really, there's no way around it. No group of 60s is going to allow a lone 60 to just run up and past them without being harassed. It just doesn't happen.

WoW does a good job with PvP in my opinion. There's no looting, no xp loss; only 30 seconds or so of time wasted.

when it is in your best interest to frustrate the enemy at every turn why wouldn't you 'gank'?

don't hate the playa, hate the game.
