Just a general observation.

Please, show me once where I was immature, I beg of you. If you spend any amount of time on these forums, you'll find that I and exilera are absolutely correct in our statements, and it is only a matter of time before Gurck is inevitably banned.

I have no active accounts in any MMO at the moment, so I can't say I'm on a PVP or non-PVP server. My answer to the poll should tell you exactly where I stand, maybe you missed it. I find PVP to be a more enjoyable aspect in gaming, however I believe maturity tends to be higher on non-PVP servers. I am against ganking.

The post you just quoted wasn't immature. Reading comprehension for the win.

This from someone who thinks WoW uses the WC3 game engine :laugh: Sorry, not trying to harp on it but it's just so funny and a high point of the ignorance you display so lavishly. Anyway, the post I quoted is just one more of malak's continual character attacks - which are indeed immature.

I played an MMORPG that, for years, was strictly PvP. There was no option. If you didn't feel like participating in PvP.... well then I guess you just didn't fight back, and got killed anyway. But this was the BEST system. Players were policed by other players, not by silly global "rules" that you can't attack one another. Sure, some innocent people got murdered, but that taught you to be strong, or travel with a group. And the best part of it was, there was a generally high level of respect for your fellow players. Because if you didn't respect, they might just kill you. But if you were respectful, then they couldn't kill you, lest other players intervene.

People should govern themselves, in real life and in MMORPGs.

That's actually not too far from how the WoW PvP servers work, or rather worked.
Granted, you were safe in your own lands, but in contested areas(which is where you'll spend most of your time above lvl 20) everyone's game.

Worked amazingly well, people were pretty mature about it.

"Evolved from the wc3 engine" says nothing. All 3d engines are evolved from the Wolfenstein 3d engine.

And in the post discussing the engine I said it was a modification of the WC3 engine. Is this somehow different from "evolved from the WC3 engine?"

Keep grasping at straws.

That's like saying Far Cry uses a tweaked Doom 1 engine. One of us is grasping at straws, alright... No leap of logic is too great when the defense of your favorite company is at stake, I guess....

You keep spouting off hypocritical BS, constantly~ You epitomize the definition of a community forum Troll to a 'T', buddy! It's especially obvious when every single post you make is filled with "childish" insults and meaningless BS. In 10s of posts, you have yet to form any sort of argument that gives me the imprssion that you can come up with an intelligent retort.
A troll posts with the intent of riling people up. Posters like you and Malak fill this role perfectly. I'm headed to a raid, but I'll search & post some (of the hundreds) of examples by Malak later. If you'd 'fess up as to who you were before you were banned, I'd do the same for you ;) A discussion board is meant for discussion. It's unfortunate that, due to intolerance for anyone different than them, children such as yourself are unable to do this in a civil manner. Keep in mind that you've taken the offensive here; I've merely defended myself. I know it may be tough to see this in your current & constant 'foaming-at-the-mouth' state of mind, but rest assured - it's accurate.

Oh, and I can spell 'impression' ;)

"If you'd 'fess up as to who you were before you were banned, I'd do the same for you"

Did you message an op yet, whinner?

" A discussion board is meant for discussion."

Same hypocritical BS. You phrase your posts to "rile people up", otherwise you wouldn't phrase them as an insult, ever single time.

"It's unfortunate that, due to intolerance for anyone different than them, children such as yourself are unable to do this in a civil manner. "

You've said this at least five times now. Nothing you've written is civil. Is "I don't understand why anyone over 12 and with an IQ over 75 would..." civil? No, you blatantly insult a huge group of people because they play differently than you, and now you're claiming you're the ATOT saint just trying to have a "civil" conversation. You're a complete hypocritical whinner.

"Keep in mind that you've taken the offensive here"

What do you expect when you insult people? It's not a difficult concept to understand, Corky.

"Oh, and I can spell 'impression' "

So justifies my calling you a conceited whinner; good job :)

Immature, like calling everyone who plays WoW differently than you a "child" and a "retard"? It's unbelievable how incredibly hypocritical you are. I expect it with every post you make, though. You have never made a most that didn't make you look like a fool. Good job :D

Yes, I blatantly insulted griefers. They are all stupid and/or children. I didn't think anyone on AT would fall into the category (would expect them at MTV.com, not a tech site), and didn't think that anyone would confess to being such an ass even if they were; it's like admitting to being an email spammer or spyware writer. But then AT has gotten consistenly younger over the time I've spent here, I guess it shouldn't surprise me. Please, go team up with your 12 year old level-capped friends to corpse camp a newbie and stop posting - AT is better off without your kind.

Unfortunately, after reposting the paragraph stating how one would "corpse camp" to hold an area, which isn't malicious or with the intent to "grief", you still have yet to read it. Or, you read it, but acknowledging what I wrote would mean you'd have less ammunition to whine, so you blatantly ignored it. Either way, your arguments have absolutely no substance. For someone calling everyone who disagrees with them childish and immature, you certainly do epitomize the definition of childish and immature.

Calling all griefers "stupid" or "children" is just silly.
A friend of mine could easily be one, if it wasn't for the fact that he for one sucks at PvP, and secondly is too busy looking for better gear.

He's neither a child nor stupid, it's all about personality, and believe it or not, not everyone you meet will have the same type of personality as you do.

You must have an incredible set of lungs on you to cry so much :p I'd think most griefers would be proud of what they do, as the stupid generally are headstrong. You seem to be in some sort of defensive denial, it's actually quite strange. Just admit you get off on ruining others' play experience. Why does this have to be so difficult?

"You must have an incredible set of lungs on you to cry so much "

Who's crying? I'm simply stating facts. You ignore points made if they'll hurt your argument. It's pretty black and white. You're a huge whinner. As others have pointed out, it's blatantly obvious.

"I'd think most griefers would be proud of what they do, as the stupid generally are headstrong"

What's "stupid" is the person who's not clever enough to listen to someone's retort and form an argument around that rebuttal, such as you. Instead, what you do is simply ignore the retort and keep spouting off your irrelevant BS. It shows you're not intelligent or witty enough to debate anything, period. It's a shame. With all the trolling you've done on this board, I'd think you'd be better at arguing. I guess you're just slow.

"You seem to be in some sort of defensive denial, it's actually quite strange."

What's "strange" is seeing someone claim their IQ is in the "99th percentile" and then fail to form an intelligent argument.

You're crying like a colicky baby in defense of griefing. You've stated no facts. What you have done is tarnished the image of people who enjoy PvP by trying to defend a lowball practice and made some atrocious spelling mistakes, lending credence to my theory about your age.

Another example of how you choose to ignore a point because it would ruin your argument. You have horrible reading comprehension, especially for someone with an IQ in the "99th percentile" :D The only "facts" relevant are that a: you're a hypocrite, b: you're grasping at straws for an argument, c: you're conceited, d: you're a whiner and e: you blatantly ignore points if they refute your argument. I think I've stated plenty of facts, thank you very much :) As for me, I've stated the fact that your definition of "corpse camping" and mine are entirely different. While you think it's negative, I see it as a means of controlling an area, if the 'campees' prove that they'll continually attack and won't leave. I've stated this many, many times now, yet you continue to use it as an excuse to call me a "child", "immature" and "stupid". Refer to the list of facts above as to why you might resort to such insults :)

You've made points? Stated facts? When did this happen? :confused: You're utterly delusional, and apparently quite jealous of my IQ, since you're harping on it so much when I mentioned it in such an offhand manner. Them's the breaks, son, some of us are born with more mental horsepower than others. If I were you I'd try to focus on your strong points instead... You're um... good at corpse camping people, and uh... trolling on internet message boards..? Those are traits to be *cough* proud of *cough* :laugh:

"You've made points? Stated facts? When did this happen?"

Um, last post, "genius". My point, Corky, is that you don't have an IQ in the "99th percentile". Judging by the "fact" that you can't form an intelligent argument that actually makes sense and doesn't make you seem like a: a hypocritical fool, b: a conceited fool, or c: all of the above, I'd say you're not even remotely in the ballpark.

Perhaps you don't realize that every one of your posts makes you seem like a conceited hypocrite, which is another reason why it's obvious you're no smarter than the average joe flipping patties at Hardies. The mere fact that you felt the need to prove yourself and belittle others by stating you had a "IQ in the 99th percentile" proves my point.
