yeah, they are called bi A tches.
This games sucks at pvp, too many exploiters... all they do is hit one key to fight..
A pvp game/fight should require skills not simply "button smashing"..

They day they actually make this game actually require aiming or physically hitting something. You will lose half of the people that PvP. Most have become so accustomed to just hitting a macro combo that if they actually had to use some margin of skill it would frustrate them too much. These types of people do well in games like City of heros. Now you will have those that say this PvP system requires skill. Yes skill in hitting your eat synthsteak macro or your center of being macro that continuously cycles all day long.
As far as the weenies dueling at every corner, well on Ahazi we have the Jedi public duels. These things last for 15 minutes and sound like a couple vibrators caught in an electric fence. We also have the typical flavor of the month defense stacker duel that lasts for a half hour.

well sorry to say that i do this all the time. whenever im sick of grinding i take a break and pvp a bit. i normall shout nodb no dots as thats the way i like to duel mainly because db's are idiotic for a duel and DoT's make it so all u need is to hit em once then warcry their ass off. however i am rifleman,pistoleer,fencer (no tka i am specifically proud to say) so i know that kiting is the only thing a ranged prof has on a melee so i never say no kiting. so i am technically NOT one of these idiots you speak of but yes there are often lil buggers running around doing exactly that. drives me mad!

lol, just tell the melee guys you will play be their rules, no running , no healing, if they play by yours...
"You must remain 30m away at all times."
What do you mean that isn't fair?!?!? It's not my fault you picked a proff with no ranged skills

For some reason, random melee 'duelers' have taken up shop at the Mining Outpost on Chilastra server. These are the tkm/fencers who stand around all day yelling "WHO WANTS TO DUEL? NO DB."
These are the ones that when challenged by a pistoleer, or any other ranged prof for that matter, will say "OK, No running, no healing, and no DoTs". As if you are supposed to say "OK", stand there within their ideal range and let them spam their Dizzy/KD attacks (that is the only one they seem to know). Forget the fact that an advantage of our profession is RANGED attacks...and forget the fact that most ranged profs invest some of their SP in medic...
I usually tell these guys "ok...no running and no heals and no DoTs...as long as your dont use a Dizzy or KD attack" A melee guys would never NOT use KD/Dizzy so they usualyl concede healing and running...then they moan and yell "CHEATER" when you use /torsoshot; /bleedingshot; /healthshot1; and /healthshot2; a couple times . . . Although technically a DoT, these attacks are SKILLED attacks, not mindless DoT attributes of a weapon.
Sometimes if you're lucky these guys will want a re-match WITH DoTs (since you cheated the first time) so thye can pull out their uber wood staffs and stone knifes. Of course they get REALLY upset when they lose again when I use the same attack above, only with a health poison geno, mind poision geno, and mind fire geno. . .
Sorry to vent but these guys are just getting old...although the fun of beating them never does. . .

There are still TKA kiddies that do this? 
I remember being in Coronet starport about 6 months ago and some kiddie with TKA was spamming the same thing, he got upset when I flicked my 80% kinectic armour on in one press of a button after the duel started.
He was asking the same thing, stay within 15m... but he didnt say no DoT's so I gave him all9 diseases and 6 poisons while he was desperately trying to KD/Dizzy me.
Nowadays though, with Ithorian Mist and Thakatillo, I had a TKM friend of mine try to KD/Dizzy me 30 times until it stuck as I wanted to see just how much defense the combo of food was offering me... so I dont worry too much about that move anymore.
It is a bit sad that someone will only duel you if you do exactly what they say and play to the strengths of their own template. Pathetic really.

I have some neat defenses for this with MP/fencer0440 but I have to try Mist and Thakatillo as well. Looking forward to hear the complaints from the newer tkm-guildies. Thanks for the tip!

They rely on it so much, he went for the dizzy and posture down as well, but you just use kip up shot to get out of that.

A set of 90% kinetic resits comp with melee defense / pistol accuracy tapes makes a huge difference when dueling these fools. . . I will usually abide by their "no running" rule as my accuracy and dodge works better when stationary. . .
Glad to see that they exist everywhere...it makes for a fun diversion
