"With heros like this, who needs vilians"

Aug 16, 2003 Daon Rendiv link
Today I saw the above message in chat and didn't think much about it . . . . until it happend to me.

I was on my red accout, a bunch of noobs some demi-vets and a vet were trying to cap gold. PS 1 stopped us, no big deal.

It was a few minutes after we aborted and ran home when it happend. PS 1 started slautering the noobs that HAD been on the trip. I found numerous sunflares in the rear view radar, and got killed. When I left the station I found I had been station CAMPED and was abruptly rocket RAMMED as I tryed to escape. I fired a pot shot as I rushed to the dock. I repaired and ran again, this time I got away. PS 1 was accused of GREIFING the noobs at refuted this saying he was anti-cap, yet he killed us AFTER we ABORTED. Also it was of intrest that he did NOT attack TRADE SHIP 1.

This whole ordeal started an argument and before I knew it Archon decided to leave red and said he was taking Uncle Dave, and a few others with him.

What is wrong with ppl these days?

All important words are in caps, be sure to note tense.

Now listen up:
1: The part where I "station camped" is a lie. I have the logs.
2: I engaged TradeShip1 several times, but got tired of his running and verbal abusing, and left him to whine.
3: I attacked the reds who were capping. Daon Rendiv was one of them.

How was I to know you had aborted the capp? You all stayed in s11, even close to the s6 wormhole!

Why should the LEADER of a guild who acts like the Vendetta police GRIEF?
I have killed 5 players in my Patrol Ship 1 character, and none of them were "innocent noobs".

Patrol Ships doesn't kill noobs,
we defend them. You keep that in mind.

I have not left red YET.
I have decided to stay until 3.3 comes out and see if things turn to the better.
If not, I'm leaving red, and hopefully, Dave will come with me (we have discussed the matter).

We will stick with our old names, Archon and UncleDave.
- Archie.

/me thinks about Archon and Dave as blues.
/me realizes they will no longer need to home in s18 to get their Valkyries.
/me shudders.

But seriously, if you lose them, you are going to have very few vets left. I suggest you Sercos carry a reqruitment drive to get more people to join. Hell, I might make a Serco character just out of pity. I was thinking about retiring Magus once the reset takes place. And please don't start whining about the prometheus. It's gotten old.

I think there is already a blue Archon. I remember when I first started playing trying to use the name Archon for a blue character, but it was taken.

yes it was taken by a vet that was our of the game for a while and that didnt want to directly get attacked by all the people that he was able to beat easilly before he again felt himself comfortable in the game.

He deleted this char though. That was also the reason why at first I thought archon to be a different person :D.

cheers

Ultima Online, 97.

I was there and said this, and it hit the uovault news page (character cembandit). I dont care if people hate so much they refuse to credit me, I know the truth of it. Heck, I've been around many games and seen many pop culture icons formed since there was a bloody internet.
