Im just saying that that is just an opinion of good and evil from one person or group (most would probably agree with this, mainly) but others wouldn\'t and would see things differently, Hence the various arguments that have broken out when a guild is borderline between neutral and either good or evil about there status!

You must have misunderstood something very, very basic in the word \"hope\"...

We can all but hope that its not a blanket ban on all PvP and Pk (but it must be controlled to avoid people going on killing sprees for the sake of killing newbies)

how about pencil & paper RPGs?
there isn\'t much of pvp, is there? :P
still, people are playing them, and they can even fight there :P ;)

about only roleplayers staying: that\'s the best thing that could happen :D
seriously: main point of RPGs is roleplaying, if you don\'t like that and want only pvp go play quake or something :P


So how can a fighter say he is a strong fighter with nothing to compare to? In pen and paper RPG\'s there are lvls which u can use to say who is stronger. In PS there aren\'t.

You just spend experience on skills and stats.

..........

Why do you people shanghai my thread?

Here is your answer to PvP in PS:
It has already been stated that there will be arenas for the sole purpose of entertaining those who enjoy one-on-one PvP, and also supporting team battles.  It has also been stated that there will be no open PvP or PK in the streets (or outside the streets, for that matter).  Wishing it were another way does not make it so.  The horse is dead; stop beating it.

I thought there was PvP, but not open pk(Except in arenas, and guild-wars, etc...).  
PvP=Consentual Dueling if I\'m not mistaken.

Btw, good posts Rhyxali.  They derail your thread becuase that\'s how it works here :P

It seems a couple people are misunderstanding the good/evil thing.  I think it may be because it is mistakenly thought of as right/wrong.

A few have expressed that a good character would appear evil in the eye of an evil character.  This is the misunderstanding:  the good character appears *wrong* in the eye of the evil character.  The good guys know who they are, and the evil characters know who they are.

A good person things that vengeful killing is wrong, while the evil person thinks it is okay.  The evil person might consider a crusade to be wrong, though it seems right to the crusaders.

So just keep that in mind while this thread continues; there is a difference between right/wrong and good/evil.  :)

At least as far as I understand...

Evil people know that what they do is wrong. A good char will appear as a wimp in the eyes of an evil one. It will not appear evil. This is because we have almost same system of rules and values. Evil chars choose to break the rules.

That\'s right!
You missed something. A good char can do something evil, and think they are doing good.
Also, I want to comment that people aren\'t completely bound by good/neutral/evil alignment. People will do things outside of the alignment that best describes them.

Skain:
Ah, pardon me. Now it begins.
Who-all here is evil? Sound off!

Rhyxali:
I\'m evil.

Xordan:
I\'m evil.

Rhyxali:
Oh, you are not!

Xordan:
Oh, I am too!

Rhyxali:
You\'re as harmless as a baby\'s ... butt.

Skain:
Rhyxali!

Rhyxali:
Well, he is!

Xordan:
I\'m not a baby\'s butt.

Skain:
Xordan, I\'m going to have to go with Rhyxali on this one. You simply don\'t have the mental capacity to be evil.

Rhyxali:
See?

Xordan:
I don\'t git it.

Skain:
You see, Xordan, you have to be able to come up with, oh, say, plots against the universe. You have to hatch evil plans to conquer planets and be just plain mean most of the time.

Rhyxali:
You\'re just too nice.

Xordan:
I forget how to be mean. That radiation half lobotomized me.

Skain:
Hey, I\'ve got an idea. Let Rhyxali teach you how to be mean!

Rhyxali:
Aw, man! Do I hafta?

Skain:
Yes, you hafta.

Rhyxali:
Okay, Xordan. Repeat after me. Skain-

Xordan:
Skain!

Rhyxali:
I will destroy you!

Xordan:
I will destroy you, if you don\'t mind.

Rhyxali:
I - will - destroy you!

Xordan:
No, I\'m sorry, wait, I\'ll get it. I will destroy yooou!

Rhyxali:
I - WILL - DESTROY YOU!

Xordan:
Awriiight! I will destroy you!

Rhyxali:
You and your little dog too!

Xordan:
You and your little dog- hey! I like his dog! Francine is a good puppy!

Rhyxali:
No! That was just a threat!

Xordan:
You wanna hurt Francine! You\'re a big bad green, um, thingie guy-

Skain:
Bug.

Xordan:
Bug! I don\'t want you to hurt Francine! Skain, shoot that thingie thing on your arm-

Skain:
Destructo ray.

Xordan:
-destructo ray so he doesn\'t hurt Francine.

Skain:
Gladly, Xordan, my dear old chum.
(Skain zaps Rhyxali)

Rhyxali:
(coughs) Hey! What\'d you do that for?!

Skain:
THAT WAS FOR FRANCINE!
Hey, wait, I don\'t have a dog.

Rhyxali:
Yeah, (coughs) tell me about it. (coughs)
