Thread: Warning!! buffing a TEF
When I buff, if I get a TEF from it, I immediately store my droid, and then tell everyone that the buff line is now on hold 'cause I got a TEF from so and so.
usually discourages the behavior, since people don't like the line being paused for 2 minutes or so while waiting on the TEF
Typically I'll understand the risk associated with buffing an overt..
Sometimes they offer to hang out and protect for five minutes in return for the buff.. that always helps..
but that the price u pay )Message Edited by tntkiller on 05-18-2004 10:28 PM

Can neutrals get tef'd? I didn't think they could. If you don't want to have to worry about PVP, don't join a faction. When you join a faction you are making it possible to be killed by another player in certain situations. You have to accept that.
I guess I'd just recommend being prepared. Make a macro to quickly store your droid, equip your armor and weapon, and consume some brandy, food, or spice. If you set it up right you could combine this all into one button. The second you see that TEF, hit the button and you're ready for battle.
A neutral doc can't treat an overt oracovert with a tef from what I understand. Message reads something like, "It would not be wise to treat this person" or something like that.

i had to ignore a doc that kept telling me how rotten(cusing at me) i am for killing him for his tef, ima master doctor as well and i understand the risk involved in buffing an overt in my faction.as far as a tef giving a tef to somone else, i say too bad, think of it like this...guilty by assosiation. i take it in stride and i wish others would as well...oh well

it is not the fault of the person who was overt, but the doc that wasn't paying attention. i will always buff overts but i stop and buff myself first and watch out for anyone that may come rolling in.
in short, if you don't want the tef, don't buff overts. if you decide to buff them and then get blasted to smithereens as a result, don't be suprised and definately don't go crying to the guy who wasted you.
Now come the part where people say "it's fiction not reality." I understand that. The point is that we are talking about a civilized socity. Fictional or not, the people would have come about some ethical rules of engagement, and unwritte rules of combat. Stuff like dont shoot a pilot thats bailed out of his aircraft, dont lay morter fire on the field hospital, stuff like that.
