Thread: Why it pays to NOT attack LD Jedi (sometimes)
I will terminate them if they are AFK, LD, not "ready", or ready. I look at it like a consequence for making a mistake.
AFK - Should know better than to go afk when someone can attack you at any time
LD - Should know better than to SHIFT + ESC logout
Not "Ready" - Should always be ready when you are PvP 100% of the time
/agree 100%

btw EVERYBODY knows going LD just makes you a sitting duck.. it will never protect your XP. So why do all you BH assume that if they go LD in the middle of a fight that they are trying an exploit...?
And to the pig i posted to above.... You said yourself she would run and fight, run and fight... ever occur to you that she was using the only TACTIC she had available to her...? It's F_CKers like you who make me WISH you'd come for me with a whole crowd of people around to see you get spanked for being such a pr!ck

I would kill LD or AFK no problem. The only Jedi I wouldn't kill is one loading in at a Shuttleport. That in my opinion is exploiting.
haven't you noticed that you cant target/attack someone that is loading?
when the red crosshairs show up, and you can attack, he's loaded
love it bro

Ok so my jedi sees me outside his hunting group. im assuming he tried to duel me, because everyone else in his group tried as well. then he gets all up in my grill and gets really rude.. why don't you attack me now.. blah blah blah. I simply inform him taht I am biding my time until I have a good opportunity. Then he starts swearing at me, and basically ends with "#!^%! you %^$ing %@^ im logging." Then I see the LD come up over his head. Was I wrong to knock him down? or should I have just used ranged shot?

Not true. When the crosshairs show up, the system has registered him as loaded, but lag or his computer may not have compleatley loaded yet. Let me give you an example. Have you ever heard the sound of an incomming mail messaged or /tell while you were looking at the loading screen? That is because the server is done registering you and has send the rest of the information (which included the email message) to your computer. However, you are still in the loading screen and unable to see what is going on becasue your computer has not loaded yet.
For some of you, the above will be too hard to understand. So try this. When traveling, right after you hit the "travel" on the travel terminal, while you are looking at the loading screen. Type a message. When you load, you will find the message has indeed been sent. It is at this time the "red crosshairs" would have shown up and you would have been "load killed".

there is a difference between logging out and being disconnected!!!
Obviously, if i had engaged a mark and he ran, then logged out in an unsafe location, i'd complete the job, but an obvious disconnect, where's the fun in that?
each to their own, i just think that instapeace keeps getting wtfpwned and needs to take his mark wherever and whenever he can!! If i'm wrong, fine, but why he'd have to come out with such a BS statement suggests he's a kiddie with no idea
Tal
Nah, see he's just a griefer. He's not in it for the money, or the game, he's in it because he likes knowing that he has ruined someone elses day. He gets a kick out of that because his life sucks so bad, it's the only thing that brightens it up for him.
