PKing was the main reason why the player base dropped from 600+ players to peaking at 400- below. Most pkers are just europeans and english players who are absolutely insecure or just bored as shit.
Pking is not fun for noobs, its aggravating when you spend 3 hours gathering hides for the first time and having it all shit stormed out of your hands by some russian guy with a minigun yelling HAHA FUCK YOU BLUESUIT! Then runs away without looting you.
PKing imo should not be incouraged, until some good bounty hunting jobs are implemented... It really kills our player base and kicks some or all the bright imaginative players (Good RPers?) out of the game due to rage quit and leaving all the crappy unrespectful gamers who like to grief people in the community.

Well thats from my experience hehe. GunSmithPete: *Pelvic Thrust*

- ALWAYS return the person's loot to them in a nearby protected town. I always instruct them to meet me in ___, give their shit back, and no one is ever angry after that.
- NEVER PK bluesuits. Seriously, that is just retarded. It makes newbies never give the game a chance because every time they try to harvest materials and make something of their character, some asshole blows their shit up and takes it all before they even can make a tent.
- Against anyone with combat armor or brotherhood armor and especially in RT: burst first, ask questions later.
- BE FUCKING FRIENDLY. I don't get why so many people are huge douchebags in this game! THIS GAME IS ABOUT SURVIVAL, WHICH INCLUDES KILLING EACH OTHER, DEAL WITH IT AND LAUGH ABOUT IT LATER. Just as the OP said.

No one EVER returns the loot. One guy even put my armor on and walked around in it offering to give it away for free to other players.
Most everyone PKs bluesuits. For some reason people think killing bluesuits makes them uber skilled, and they also enjoy watching them have to start all over again. Doesn't make you skilled, and you're a douchebag for enjoying suffering.
Burst first? What happened to that give them stuff back policy?
Sorta agree with this last one. Returning insults with insults is ineffective. However, you won't be laughing when they sell your shit and call you names. This is basically a list of stuff that just doesn't happen.

Well if you can beat/survive somebody fully leveled and decked out for combat and get away with it all the time no need for the burst first policy then. Also you seem to be reading it out of context.

This game is full of trolls and griefers, you can adjust to the community and deal with it or play white knight and say what is right and what is wrong in every thread concerning conduct in a post apocalyptic setting.

No pity , no mercy , no remorse just a cold blooded kill without even saying a word , gazing at the body for a moment , giving a stiff look and then leaving.

Perfect.....

No sorry , no forgiveness , nothing it's not even personal. Kill just for the sport , kill just to pull the trigger , kill just to hear the bullet leave the gun.

Nothing personal.

And these are the thoughts of douchebags. Go outside, get some fresh air, and realise how nerdy that post was. Murdering people who can't put up a fight and are taken by surprise is stupid. Get over it. Didn't you ever hear the old saying "Pick on someone your own size?" Well, yeah. It's true. This is a game. You're not actually "killing" anyone. But being fair and waiting till the noobs actually have a chance isn't going to hurt. It's not going to ruin your life. It's a game. Play it nice, or don't play it at all. There's nothing wrong with taking a little pride in the digital world, but really. Read what you just said.

It's a game, It's not going to ruin your life if you get pk'd continually as a bluesuit either. Go outside, get some fresh air, Being fair and waiting for the noobs to have a chance will give them the ability to possibly kill you one day and could hurt. It's a game play it how you want to and let others play it the pk way.

If they have a chance to kill you, that's good. It's called a fair fight. If they explode when you shoot them once, it's not a fair fight.

This isn't about fair fights, do you really believe in the fallout universe a raider would wait until someone grabbed a minigun before shooting/raping/pillaging.

Well, considering this is a game played by people who are not actually IN the fallout universe, and considering the fallout universe is not reality, yes.

This isn't the fallout universe. This is a game based off of it. And this isn't a roleplaying game. We're not pretending it's actually the fallout universe and acting oblivious to the fact that there is a world beyond this video game.

Just because the fallout story says people are nasty, doesn't mean you have to act it out in game. Just play nice. It isn't hard.

[Slaver Snipe]

You may not believe this is a roleplaying game but others do, I enjoy acting like a raider. Please don't state "We're" in your post when you don't have an idea of what others believe the game to be. I roleplay this as the fallout universe and as such i act nasty on some characters or I go onto one of my "nice" characters and help people out.

I meant by roleplay like this:

Someone mentions the real world outside of the game, and you act as if you have no idea what the hell they are talking about, this IS the real world.
Nah. This is Fallout online, not Fallout RP.

[Reginmund]

Play it nice, or don't play it at all.

ooooh ahhhh we have to play by his rules or we are stupid because he is the bawse.

[smoothjesus]

The ones who call themselves raiders, kill level 1-5's and call it RP are the only ones I have a problem with. They're the same ones who will suddenly decide to stop RPing as a raider when they're outgunned. "i noob lol have you got any hides? " "dont shoot lol"

[Badger]

The 'THIS IS WHAT THE FALLOUT WORLD IS' holds no weight whatsoever.

What about towns? In Fallout if you gunned someone down in cold blood in public, an entire town would freak out and enact vigilante justice. You could never go back. Instead we have sleepy farming town bloodbaths. People don't kill strangers because of a commitment to roleplaying a raider and the world of Fallout, they do it because the game lets them. Players are always as big a dick as you allow them to be, and FOnline is no exception. That's just how all videogames work, and why games go to great lengths to prevent that kind of thing.

Everybody cherry picks the part of the Fallout world that backs up their argument and denies everything that doesn't. Like I did just then. It's stupid. Don't do it. Justify your argument without using the words Fallout/Hello Kitty/whining/noobs/griefers. Talk about why something improves gameplay, makes the game unique, provides an exciting challenge, and so on.

If you're out PKing with only a leather jacket and either a spear or 9mm Mauser, then I don't think you're really the sort of person anyone has been complaining about - it's more the people who, despite the apparent lack of resources and civilisation in the post-apocalyptic setting, are walking around better armed than a full squad of the NCR Military.

I think most people wouldn't have a problem with anyone who PKed with a spear.

Maybe they're a bunch of crazies who came across some pre-war gear for commando squads and are now rampaging and pillaging wherever they go :>.
