    Re: Annoying things ppl do

    When I saw your other post, I thought that there was some hope that you had learned something about playing nicely with others. But it seems that you still have a long way to go. I had Stormluz on my ignore list long before this incident so the problem is not just your contempt of others in the last skirmish you ran.

    People of all ages, from around the globe play on E. It's a large community of mixed personalities and backgrounds so you will find people who are fun to play with and others, not so much. But you need to keep in mind that behind the cartoons on your screen, there are real people. You don't get to decide what other people should feel.

    Also, how blind are you to the irony and hypocrisy you show here? You're upset because people are calling you out in glff. Yet, I remember you doing the same thing (have to update my ignore list after your rename, not that I'm on freepside much), mocking another player, telling others not to join his raid. You see how it feels?

    Because E is so big and people come and go, you may find some that will still play with you. The people who's time you wasted may or may not chose to let you join in on their reindeer games again. But, that is their choice. Your best bet is to keep a low profile while tempers cool. Eventually.

    If it's any consolation, you're always welcome to come out to the Moors.

    Re: Annoying things ppl do

    This is one of the consequences of ninja looting, whether you apologize for it or not. Did you even recompensate the people you stole from, or did you just take your "long" (what, like 2 weeks?) break hoping people would forget?

    Re: Annoying things ppl do

    I personally don't treat people badly unless they have reason to treat me badly. I have mentioned to others that have gotten unwanted attention , how to get it to go away is just to forget it happened and learn from it. Bullies get bored and latch on to another target if they don't get the response they want. I tell my kids that in school (they have had no issues ).

    Mistakes happen, with age, maturity and where you're from are a big part of how we act in game. Not everyone is gonna mix with everyone else. I also find that not everyone is going to be your *saying that in a general sense* friend.

    As snow said its a big community with mixed personalities. We have our trolls, our kids, our senior citizens, our adults with kids. Its a big melting pot of personalities. Take what happened and what happened with others in the past ie, the phrase you did a lollipop comes to mind. Only because it is now a term commonly used on e. Not comparing that at all but just saying some things are easily remembered compared to others.

    If you don't want negative attention, dont give them reason for it. It's ok to chat and say stuff to the community, but , I found when I get drama , I used to get mad and give it back but took a while to just be the bigger person and step back a bit. Play with your friends who are true to you.

    You're not gonna please everyone and you're also not gonna befriend everyone on e, its not possible for anyone. Just enjoy the game and let them stew . Yet learn from ur mistakes.

    A couple weeks ago, the OP ninja looted a chest. It apparently caused an uproar, and he came and offered a forum apology (with no offer to compensate the affected parties) and said he was going to take a long break.

    Now he's back, and is surprised that people didn't accept his apology. Or didn't read it. Or couldn't decipher it. Or didn't believe he was sincere.

    It will probably suck, but if he intends to remain on the same server, it's going to take a lot more than a poorly spelled forum apology to put this issue to rest.

    I don't know what exactly it was that he ninja looted, but there are few things that will get you as vilified in LOTRO. There's a guy on Brandywine who was a bit of a ninja looter 4 years ago (he denies it, but there are still a few of us who were actually directly affected who still remember) and he still gets ripped to shreds in glff, even though he hasn't done any ninja looting for a long time. And by people who weren't even *around* when he did these things. It's pretty childish, all the dogpiling. Of course, he also has maintained innocence and not offered any apology, so that probably hasn't helped.

    What i did was wrong and I don't care. It hurts my feelings that you talk bad about me so I am gonna come and pretend like it was all mistake and say I am sorry. And then the very next raid I am gonna do it again. The only person that matters is me period. Screw the rest of you. By the way I plan to pursue a career in politics....

    That is what I read him saying. I have him on ignore and there he will remain. He needs to find something else to do with his time.

    Re: Annoying things ppl do

    Awww, I thought this was going to be one of those fun threads where you go:

    I find it really annoying when people post in public chat channels how to do a quest, especially the ones from the Blue Lady in Evendim. It ruins it for everyone else. If someone asks for help, send them a tell!

    I find it really annoying when GOOC is quiet.

    I find it really annoying when someone sends me an invite for a group without speaking to me first, unless it's blatantly obvious that we're killing the same mobs, or doing the same quest.

    Re: Annoying things ppl do

    Ninja looting is probably the worst thing you can do to people in this game. Hitler proportions. If you ninja looted something, and then continued to ninja loot more somethings, it's over. You might as well re-roll, and don't tell ever tell anyone that you were "that ninja looter that stopped playing." And for Eru's sake, never, ever, ever take something from a chest that you aren't 195% sure belongs to you. Even if it was a mistake, it will follow you forever. Nothing spreads throughout the population faster than the name of someone who robs chests. I'd rather leave something in a chest, unsure if I should take it, than risk taking it and earning ninja-looter status.

    For you, Lotro is now a single-player first-person shooter.

    Good luck to you, and may Eru have mercy on you, because the rest of Elendilmir probably won't. I certainly don't have any for the ninja-looters on Brandywine. I don't even put them on my ignore list. I remember their names very well, and if I see them LFF, I make an effort to warn everyone about them.

    there was a conversation in brandywine GLFF just yesterday that lasted an hour because someone kicked someone out of a draigoch group right before the loot. the person is a kin leader and somehow didn't know he was making a stupid move. all i got out of the hour long conversation was don't join Bara's kin.

    What if said ninja looter was very depressed and decided to commit suicide after you shunned them?

    Can you live with the fact that you caused a suicide over a few pixels? Think about it.

    Really!?! Hitler!?!

    The kid did something stupid. Maybe he had to learn an object lesson and hopefully, he now knows better. It's an item that will be obsolete in a few months that no one will care about. His reputation is about as low as it will get and regaining it will take a long time. It's better that he learn this here where there are no actual consequences than in the real world.

    Yeah, I've rolled with Bara before. I don't think she's a ninja looter, but it is REALLY easy to get on her bad side. She's a teetotaler. She doesn't tolerate any language, discussion, behavior, or even behavior outside the game less than a G-rating. In fact, you have to try REALLY hard to NOT upset her. Fortunately, she's forgotten me.

    I would have no problem if said ninja looter committed suicide. I do not control his/her poor choice of actions anymore than I control the actions themselves. I have been too close to suicide in my own life to have much sympathy for anyone else in that position. All I have to say to those people is: Get help. I did, and it's why I'm alive now.

    Well played. However, consider the following:
    1) Can you think of any worse atrocities committed by humanity against humanity than the Nazi genocide of WWII?
    2) Can you think of any worse offense that you can commit in LOTRO than the taking of loot that was earned by someone else?

    I maintain that because the 2 offenses are at the pinnacle of their scope, they are legitimately comparable. The defense rests.

    Bara is a girl? *head asplodes* We talking about the VE leader?

    I always assume only men can be as callous as he/she is. Granted, I've been proven wrong even in LOTRO, but my perceptions remain.

    Godwin's Law does not allow for appeals. There is no belittling the plight of Europen Jews by comparing genocide to ninja looting. Take your loss and learn from it!

    Rating evil by death toll isn't really accurate because there are plenty of people in the past who would have killed more than Hitler if they had the technology he had to kill a lot of people in a very short time.

    There are also alot more ways to be evil and anyways Cheney might have only directly killed one guy but he indirectly killed many others.

    Plus rep to Alzie. He ninja looted but some of the comparisons are over the top. I still won't group with him until I see evidence of a change. Group at your own risk.

    Alek I seriously disagree with you assertion about the former VP. The two closest presidents we have ever had to anything like Germany in the thirties and forties are Andrew Jackson and Franklin D. Roosevelt. Jackson defied the Supreme Court with the Trail of Tears and FDR interned Japanese Citizens during WW2. Nothing done under any other president seems quite as significant as those two events. If we can get away with it I wouldn't mind seeing a thread dealing with that kind of thing in the "Other Topics" section.

    One of the hardest books I have ever tried to read is Shirer's Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. Read a lot of biographies and other books but just the sheer amount of detail and the subject matter make it a tough book for me to read.

    So you're saying that Cheney is more evil than Hitler. Interesting.

    I think it's great to have an understanding of where people are coming from with their arguments. Now that I know yours are rooted in paranoid fantasy, I can view them in proper perspective.

    Leave it to a Canadian to try and speak for the world. It must be the week between hockey season and curling season!

    Alek is not an accurate reflection of the average Canadian. Canadians think he's an idiot as well.

    I actually surveyed every Canadian, except Alek. 100% of the responses indicated there is a high probability that Alek is an idiot.*

    I also asked every Canadian whether they think Canadians or Americans know more about American history. 100% of the responses indicated that there is a high probability that Americans know more about American history than Canadians, and that nobody really knows anything about Canadian history. Including Canadians. Especially the Canadians from Newfoundland.*

    *100% of the statements I have just made are false. I have, in fact, not surveyed anyone.
