APK does it exist?

<< < (2/13) > >>

Fettel:
there is no such a thing as Apk, its just your own Mind that makes you shoot other or not to shoot.

Andr3aZ:
We, the Guardians, are APKish for years.

For me APK defines like this:
Don't shoot first on lone players / small groups in encounters or towns(non TC) if you are alone or with your gang.
Shoot anybody you think that might pose a threat if in high alert status.
Don't let fun of killing and loot be the first priority when killing a player - self defence should be top reason.

True APK can't exist in this community. Anybody has his/her own view on when somebody should be shot and of course the dead one is always the one complaining.

APK and PK could be considered Jedi and Sith. APK always lecturing PKs about the scum they are and PKs always ridicule the APKs guidelines, saying they are not better than every PK.

JovankaB:
Depends what you mean by "PK".

I have seen 8 "pro players" shooting one leather armor guy in random encounter while farming.
I don't really get what's fun about it or how suddenly it's not "lame swarm" if you are 8 to 1
but it is when the same 8 apes meet a slightly bigger group of like-minded apes.

But it's not complaining, I just consider it unnecessarily lame.
There are players who don't play the easy way and it doesn't mean they sit in cave and craft.

Marko:
I agree with Andr3aZ and JovankaB on the above. Additionally...

To me a PK [in this game] is a not simply a "player who kills other players" (even though the letters P and K mean that literally). A PK [in this game] to me means a player who kills other players, with no honorable discretion. Typically a PK will also be the sort who reads my definition and pretends it is not possible to judge what "honorable discretion" is. They'll say your sense of it differs from theirs and who am i to judge theirs. That sort of thing. Yet we all know the moral standards for basic right-and-wrong in RL. The APK is usually a player who attempts to apply RL moral judgments onto situations inside this gaming environment. I am one such player. It's not easy [because i want to win all my fights too!]. The trick is to fight honorably even though the PKs fight dishonorably, and to find ways to stick to my superior standards. *big smile*

Reminder: there's a difference between killing and murder. All murders are killings, but not all killings are murder. A PK who acknowledges this is playing an evil character and is at least honest about it. A PK who rejects this is lying. Are you falling for it? They don't fool me!

Jescri:
APK is me.
Other poeple are PK.

Easy to understand.
