lol whoever gets pwned by S8 is uber noob and should hide beheind his momma skirt and leave harsh wasteland for real guys who can properly pwn S8 or whoever appears on preview. xD

There is no point arguing about it, they both kill, and they both kill eachother. Some may choose to view it as black and white, but at its basest level it is no different. There is no reason to whine about them, because you yourself, just as I have, chosen to be a part of it, regardless of side. The only difference between PK and APK is the title, even I, a PK have gone out of my way to help a new player occasionally, other times I shot them. When I was low level and unaffiliated, some PK and APK players would help me, other times they would shoot me. Does it bother me? No. Especially not in a game as easy to get your stuff back as this. This isn't Diablo II hardcore mode guys. Death isn't that big of a deal.

As for Section 8, the only thing you can really say is any different, is takng over a guarded town. And really, you think thats not possible? In real life just because you are in a city with a police force does not mean you wont get robbed, and it doesn't mean you can't get killed. It happens all the time. Keeps people on their toes. Teaches them to not let their gaurd down. Its the wasteland, shit happens, respawn and get back out there.

Back when I was unaffiliated, I experienced my first encounter with section 8. I came into hub, and I died. That simple. It was no different than any other day, when I tried to sell something and a theif took all the money I made. I lost my stuff just like normal, and I respawned. No big deal. In fact, when I came in and saw everybody dead, I laughed a little. It was out of the ordinary, and that made it kind of amusing. Did I take it to heart? No. Why? Because I got my big boy pants on. Something some people who will go unnamed should try.

The second time I encountered them, they DIDN'T kill me. A PK group not killing a bluesuit? Guess what, it happens. And the third time I ran into them? I joined them. Since then, I've killed alot of people, and died just as much. I've helped alot of people, faction members and randoms alike. Thats right, sometimes I help randoms, and othertimes I shoot them. Sometimes I even shoot them, THEN help them. What do I see though? Nothing but unfounded and unintelligent remarks. Those who quite the game because of rage shouldn't have been playing to begin with. I believe fallout two had a mature rating, sure that means seventeen and older, but it also means mature, something some people lack. Mature is not 'conforming to what others view the game to be', nor is it 'acting a way deemed socially acceptable'. Maturity is knowing to not take things too seriously and doing what needs to be done. Since this is a game and nothing needs to be done, that only leaves one thing.

To conclude, people who whine and moan about people being immature, and playing the wrong way, making unfounded assumption on what type of people some are just because of the way they choose to play the game, are themselves, being immature. Something to think about my good sirs.

Ok I took some time to calm down, took a day off from the game and feel much better. We all say stupid things and make asses of ourselves when we are raging and that's all what I'm really doing here is making an ass of myself.

And I am sure I have made somebody rage with my actions in this game. And isn't that what we generally like to do in this game, figure out ways to annoy each other and make each other rage?

I cannot be the only one who rages playing this game, I guess I am more vocal with my rage and tend to cuss and want to tell everybody off.

And I know Section 8, and have played with them, and their idea of fun is what people would associate with PK. But you guys are horrible at town controlling, and I've seen your members rage trying to take a town after getting attacked by 10+ people from enemy factions.

I tested AVV theory of being nice to people and being generous. I made a new character and made BB's to level and gave it to noobs in NCR. And this was the outcome. Because of a rollback the night before all my combat characters were in some random spot in broken hills, and I always log out of the game on world map or at a tent. So when the town came under attack I logged in and my character was spawned right in the middle of town where the enemy was standing and I got shot and looted and the stupid targeted shots was on while trying to fire a rocket at them in an attempt to escape, and that's what generally set me off to rage quitting when I wrote previous posts. This is the type of stupid shit that always happens to me in this game.

So no generally for me being nice helping people, giving free gear away and helping people make money does not bring any good luck what so ever.

Just needed a break from the game I am not quitting. I am here to stay and continue fighting the fight. There is nothing I can do to change that fact that faction fighting is unbalanced in numbers and well just have to deal with it. The wasteland is harsh and unfair. And I suppose it brings about realism, there is no team balance in war. And I could just go play fonline battlegrounds for a team balanced fight.

Of course we're bad at Town Control.  We rarely do it, and even that's a relatively new thing for us.  Who in their right mind would expect us to be good at it?  We haven't been doing it as often or as long as other groups, and they're good for a reason.  They've earned that skill fair and square, through experience.  That experience is what we don't have, and it's difficult to get when you rarely have the numbers online to even attempt it.  Primarily, we aren't a TC faction.  That should be apparent to anyone paying attention. 

Also, I'm sure you've seen some of us rage at stuff.  I'm not speaking for all of Section 8, just myself.  We have all sorts of guys, just like any other group of people... and some of them rage.

That's not going far, I was right in the area.  I set my tent up near there for hunting SF caravan.  And for a few weeks I was able to hop into commercial row and sell a few SMG's.  I like having lots of options for selling since frequently the merchants are either out of caps or have very few (the ones that pay good for smg's that is).
