So much hate for PKers
Michaelh139:
There is no such thing as anti-pk this era. There was sort of prewipe I am willing to say... but no thing now.
Keldorn:
1. Pkers contribute to paranoia. They in a way compel others to continue the cycle of mindless violence since nobody could be trusted. People who shoot first therefore have a much higher survival chance. The presence of alts is primarily due to the violent nature of the game since its much more efficient to craft ones own things than to trust a psycho, which is the majority of the population.
2. Rewards. The gains from PKing vastly outweight any other method of item acquisition. Considering its the same PK teams that also farm encounters, this leads to an in-ordinate amount of wealth going to a certain playstyle therefore fucking over any other chance for a different playstyle. Hence this game is a bit of a one trick pony.
3. System. Granted it will be changed next era, cooldowns are stupid. People are losing lots of real life time gaining shit and BAM, some PKers rob them blind. I don't care how often the Pkers themselves got PKd, their playstyle is forcing everyone else to conform or risk losing time and energy. 5 hours for BA when one can get it from gridcamping/shoot the eyes?
In all fairness, its half-pkers and half the system. Change the risk/rewards scenario a bit along with the paranoia and pk might not be so bad. I always thought combat was meant to be fun, a test of natural skill and strategy with braggings rights to the victor. Throw in item loss and you lose the spirit of competition. Instead, its replaced with cheap tactics designed to gain victory through minimal amounts of risk. In the case of the TC system, its people with multiple combat alts along with cheese tactics to win attrtion style warfare.
P.S. By the way Badger great read/link. It explains both sides of PVP quite clearly even if the non UPVP side makes more sense logically.

If you got killed by PK then just keep smiling :)
What PKs want to see is despair and people stop playing.
When you got PKed then just keep playing. Don't stop.
You just help PKs to get stronger and more annoing if you do that.
