[Lord Hunter]

It will be moderated by Lord Hunter, Poo and the Admins may make guest appearances (just in case) - therefore it will not be free for all smacktalk.

Basic rules:
no heavy profanity (if it's in the filter, it's there for a reason, don't bypass it);
no personal stuff (you suck as archer is OK, you suck RL and live in mommy's basement is not);
no porn / racism / RL discrimination;
no exploits/hacks links/how-to's scripting and/or freeshards, this also includes even roughly hinting at any of these things, I mean it dont even hint at these things or find a nice PM from me;
no pictures you would not want your mother to see(Or a GM!!);
no links to objectionable content, especially if not UO-related.​

Hunters Rules

Not accepting a duel from another pvper or guild is highly frowned upon...*Cough*...*Cough* plus it makes you look weak.
Hiding in your house and snapping a picture is not PvP.
Snapping a picture of a person you killed while you are surrounded by your guildmates is not PvP, its a gank. Duh
Oh and Bards Rule all.

[Lord Hunter]

Please read and follow all the rules up there before posting here guys. You know the drill. I added "Hunters Rules" to make the PvP thread more enjoyable or everyone. Also please note that "Hunters Rules" can be looked at more like a special resquest from me. It gets really old seeng the same stuff day after day guys, lets try and switch things up a bit.

So for now consider these more like a friendly request, however if it gets ignored and abused expect it to be made into official rules.(this does not take into accoun the rule about posting illegal pictures, that will get you in big trouble!)

 

[WarUltima]

First!!!

Stephanie Sonoma this is to reply of your post 504 in the last thread.

SCAM out in force tonight

Did you really just said that we have a FORCE on?

This is some kind of FORCE... 9 corpses is the most I can fit in one screenshot... and they are all D@D if I am not mistaken. And we wrecked you guys with 4 people...

rolleyes: Dead or Alive doesnt change you guys have at least 9 people in star room and ALL of you died cept a blue stealther who got away. 10 People... now THAT'S the kind of force Waka and D@D (or COP before their battle leaders quit) can field... not scam. We consider it lucky if we can hit half of you Waka/D@D's average number during prime time.

You guys can easily double us during our peak time and you know it's true. At first I thought u were a reasonable person after this wreck (in screenshot) you said to me in Luna "You guys has amazing teamwork good job" and now you are implying a zerg... lol. They only thing we have over you Waka/D@D guys are skill and teamwork. Hardly ever numbers.

 

[Eldron/Numchuck]

Well, lets start the thread off with some fresh off the press pics of D@D getting owned. I guess I'm gonna have to go back SL so I can start getting points off these guys again, because when they die they just keep coming back. Somethin' like fire ants, minus the bite.

[Stephanie Sonoma]

Hi War

I wasn't implying zerg. Nor did I even mention it. Just said you guys were out in force. I wanted to fight but we couldn't come out, because even with the same numbers you all work well together (let alone a few more people).

Plus I hardly see that many SCAM, so .... you were out in force. And it showed, you killed alot of people.

Anyway, good gaming last night everyone, lots of fun action. I know I died quick when SCAM flooded the star room outnumbered and laid waste to us. Ah well, good thing when I die in UO nothing happens in RL!

 

[Busters]

WU does cry foul alot when he dies, but oh well, some people can't handle dying in game so they cry alot about it. Also I don't want to hear about numbers from scam. You guys field as much as we do majority of the time. All we have to do is kill your mages that cross heal you and you and all the other dexers run for the hills. But i forgot, WU knows everything and is always rightrolleyes:

 

[Widow Maker]

WU..Die??? ...tell me it ain't so, Joe!!! The online gaming world is simply agog at the thought!

1 in 1,000,000,000 women online gamers say WU is just *dreamy and simply awesome at PvP*.

*snicker*

 

[Trinsauce]

So I'm sitting here sorting through my house and I get this random message from a long time buddy of mine... It says "So I heard there is a channel for minorities in ur vent, is that true?" I sit there and think to myself after laughing uncontrollably... WTF... how many haters must one game have??? The answer is self explainatory in the picture below.

http://i42.***********/2059gdh.jpg

Utterly rediculous things people make up these days

 

[WarUltima]

There's really no name to slander about waka.
First guild to fake screenshots thru out the 10 years I play and still yet have one (1) to kill me 1v1.

 

[Trinsauce]

There's really no name to slander about waka.
First guild to fake screenshots thru out the 10 years I play and still yet have one (1) to kill me 1v1.

I'll give u a few FACTS as to why u "think" u haven't been killed 1v1 even tho there was a photo of u dying 1v1 to Willy Loman go figure that u would claim we did something that ur notorious for doing tho... Like anyone is as obsessed with dying as u are...

FACT 1: U DON'T EVER PLAY UNLESS THERE'S A LARGE ENOUGH GROUPING OF SCAM ON.
FACT 2: U DON'T EVER STAY IN A FIGHT WITH SOMEONE LONG ENOUGH UNLESS UR FIGHTING A MAGE ON UR ARCHER.
FACT 3: U RUN AT THE FIRST SIGN OF A DUMP ON UR SORRY ASS.

Now if u want to be technical about things u DIED last night with more numbers at Yew... Waka had 4 and SCAM had 6 if I remember correctly... So in turn u DIED outnumbering us dumbass... U juss got stupid and left ur PROTECTIVE circle of guildies and got assed up... Let it sink in... It's ok little buddy... It really is ok to die in a video game... Grab ur earlobes and rub them softly and chant "WOO SAA" everything will be alright little buddy... breath in breath out... WOO SAA

 

[Widow Maker]

Good heavens..let it go..

WU dies easily when he makes the mistake of not hiding (his primary special) or running (his secondary special)...its just that no-one cares (really...no-one) to take screenies of dead SCAM members, especially him. They are just not important enough or have an impact on the shard PvP world. Let WU be obsessed as much as he likes, it is just his way of saying how much he loves us.

C'mon WU..gimme a big hug!!

I love you man...

[Eldron/Numchuck]

Another big fight at my house at Khaldun entrance tonight. Was a lot of fun. Farimer ran out and did his signature move, "the faceplant" which was hilarous.
[IMG]http://i43.***********/2dtp4j5.jpg[/IMG]

This next image is from a one vs one with Whinny. I can't really brag because he was on a mage and I was playing my archer, but he got a lil dirt in his teeth also.
[IMG]http://i43.***********/2v8qp1k.jpg[/IMG]

 

[Widow Maker]

Another night of slaughter. 5-6 WAKA against 86/D@D/SCAM and a few badly treated blues.

86: Killed so much that you always get the "not significant enough" message when you kill them. Their fearless leader, Elderberry, sitting inside and saying "You 2..no 3... go out there and kill Trinity. (ten seconds later) OooOOooo Darn guys, that looked like it hurt. I am sorry..I can't res. Sorry I couldn't go out there with you...I..I..left the water...err no..the phone rang..yeah..the phone". How is that wearing Faction armor thing going? Is SCAM letting you kill them for armor wearing points? Maybe you should go SL so SCAM can just give you points. They would not be able to wear their own armor in a very short time.

Vexxen, unreal escape tonight, I was impressed, you had to be about pooping your shorts..LOL..Nice work! *tips hat*

SCAM: Not even worth mentioning. They came, they died. But at least they give points!! There were not enough on for WU to dare show up on the shard, not like it would have mattered. He would have just ran and hid anyways, yet claim to have 1v1'd the entire shard... with just 1 arrow.. and have a slightly altered very old screenshot. End of that story.

Just think of it like this..the Thrax... of SCAM. Can I get a Hallelujah Hunter??!!

The alliance between 86 and SCAM is now official. We know this because of the massive amount of thumb sucking noises (may have been some sloppy kissing going on too) coming from the 86 keep as their ghosts sat around inside with 86 ghosts.. in a circle... *blink*. They never came back. A heavy fog of cigarette smoke was detected around the keep after about 10 minutes.

D@D: A LOT of them. Took a good beating again but kept coming back for a while until their numbers thinned out. They give points!! We appreciate the fights.

No sign of COP, I think it is funeral time and those who still wish to play to allow themselves to be assimilated into the other current guilds. I hear SCAM is recruiting Ruffles?

(anyone with an ounce of sense better duck because here it comes!!!)

 

[WarUltima]

Ahh my fanboys are still celebrating on the ultra archer gank I see.

I am curious what modification I made to the screenshots of back in pub18 era (before most waka Snake even brought their first copy of UO) other than I crop out my ingame area. Or you mean spending 15million gold to replicate a character that you claim that dies all the time so you can have a fake 1v1 killshot to combat my actual ingame 1v1 screenshots that I got on almost each and every single one of you?

Aww trinity still butt hurt from the 1v1 I laid on you? If you are not happy with that kill me 1v1 and post it here. Try to resist the "create" bottom at the character creation page even tho I am pretty sure Snake is willing to pay another 15m for another glacial hair dye.

Ahh Trinity is accusing me for playing like Calisto... well if I want to be like calisto I would never die. My mistake last night was trying to take on 4 archers solo on my mage (something waka will never do because every single waka on shard never play unless they are surrended by 7 other wakas). But oh well. And technically last night there were 5 of us, and we were sandwitched by you and 6 or 7 D@Ds. I mean look at the actual ingame screenshots after that kind of wrecking in starroom it will be rather strange that D@D will go for some running happy waka typical archers then bouncha scam mages. (even tho right after I died I got on my archer and instantly killed 3 of you because now you light speed galaxy wrap out of our screens after we magic arrowed you.) I find it funny because there were about 3 death on us, 12 or so on Waka and 20+ on D@D last night and waka is celebrating. I guess that's a good reason for not waring and keeping actual kill scores.

I am happy at least you guys got to open the 300 dollar bottle of celebrating wine you brought 2 years ago for quad-archer ganking 1 mage on foot. I guess it says alot about Bear for getting owned 1v1 again last night and all my other teammates that was in screenshot were just there to laugh (Snake logic), yea GG Bear nice 1v1 ass up "Again".

Was there any PvP? I was working, the last PvP I remember today was the morning coon at the swamp that we wrecked (Trinity ran without casting a spell for some reason) and I found him at Luna immidiately after that.

And whoever says scam can field same number as waka majority of the time is apperently having the same crap that Snake is smoking ingame.

 

[Trinsauce]

http://i40.***********/34yv5o5.jpg

SCAM showed up with 5 people and talked a ton of **** in UO General Chat how Waka can't fight without double numbers yet here's SCAM with 5 people on for lil ol Trinity and Devlin Darkmoore... Hi Kettle...

Wu anytime u wanna hop on a mage and show me how badass u r we can play kiddo... U play an archer nonstop... when u wanna fight 1v1 mage vs mage u give me a hollar... Until then ur talk is nothing... anyone who's played archers their whole UO careers has admitted that playing a mage is a lot more complicated than a double click archer... So come see me when ur ready to graduate to the big boys pvp...

5 vs 2 and ur calling us a zerg... Even better is u have 5 on at MIDNIGHT PST wowsers

If I ever kill you, I'll try to remember to take one. Just for you.

BTW, when did 86 start snuggling with SCAM?

 

[Mr Helmet]

Trinity why are you trying to call people out for 1v1's when you don't accept them yourself and according to you they are "overrated".

 

[Lefty]

ROFL .. that was you?? I dunno who was more surprised, you or me.

Yeah hehe, Zak got me good also. I'm not sure how he did it . My view was blocked by a house. All I heard was an AI, but he could of landed a combo. Whatever it was it leveled me like a 1 hitter.

Today was tactical error day just to let everyone know..:}

 

[Lefty]

Scam took over the spawn. They ran us off as well. JD was the only one that hung around.

 

[Trinsauce]

If ur going to quote me at least quote me correctly... I said DUELS r overrated... What do DUELS have to do with todays pvp??? Absolutely nothing anymore...

Do u run in duels? No, but in todays pvp it sure is full of running.
How many small spells r casted in duels that u normally use in actual field fighting? 6 or 7(FB, MA, curse, Poison, lightning, harm, maybe a weaken) and how MANY MORE do u cast in a field battle, whereas duels r about disrupting and turtling...

So again I ask u why should I WASTE MY TIME dueling when field fighting is much more fun??? DUELING is an art that lost it's luster right around 2000...

How bout we do this??? I've never shy'd away from a 1v1 from ANYONE on this shard EVER... U see me u attack me plain and simple... I won't book it like most would... But in the end YOU WORRY ABOUT UR GAMEPLAY AND I WILL WORRY ABOUT MINE... I'll do what I want when I want and I could care less what u have to say, deal???

Oh such good buddies when they need you but will turn on you on a moments notice. Yea, thats scam.

Lefty? Are you in 86 or D@D? I'm a bit confused. I've noticed that D@D doesn't have as close of a "relationship" with scam.

As for Sickshine comment about me being WAKA's "pet"... While I like the verb form of that word, I am certainly not the noun version. Usually, I am attacked on sight by WAKA. I got lucky yesterday and was able to have fun without having to dodge every damn guild on Sonoma.

 

[Widow Maker]

LOL..ya know I just had to go there!!

Ruff, it's not quite so dramatic as you describe.

The GM has friendships with 2 guys, and sometimes they will hang out. The rest of them attack us on sight.

 

[BBear]

I have to admit that I am suprised to see this friendship between 86 and SCAM. Several days ago I watched 86 rezz Crazy Legs in their house by Khaldun entrance. A couple minutes later we killed a member in 86. Crazy Legs was still in the house and he Rezz killed him and took off.


Bear

 

[Widow Maker]

Such great friends to have around. It is no wonder so many people love and respect them.


*chokes*

[Mr Helmet]

couple screen shots from Hugo and I killing D@D today. Zak maybe you should take your own advice and call more because the way it seems your guild cant even handle a 2v4 against scam.

 

[Trompe Le Monde]

Hey guys, This is my first time posting. I've always found these forums entertaining, but never really cared to get caught up in the drama I see sometimes on the boards. Sadly, I may be moving to the sticks soon, so this may be the closest I get to PVP for a while.

Anyways, I had a fun time last night up in Minoc. Was playing on a new char, Black Francis, and had a good time. Lots of D@D, Waka, some 86, and 2 Scam I think. Took a some dirtnaps, gave a few...all in all I think a good time was had by all. I find it weird how people always think there has to be a "winner" to any given fight night. From my perspective, 86 (including myself, even though Im not guilded or faction) had some good runs, d@d had some nice comebacks, then waka came and killed some d@d, d@d (zak especially) had some nice waka kills. Fun time.

I don't have a good screenshot utility, but i caught this one while messing around with d@d. Nice show of what D@D can pull together.

Anyways, I'm Black Francis, Trompe Le Monde, Mr Grieves, Tezuka, El Hazard

Never really saw the point in keeping alts secret...

Had a good time, Look forward to it again

 

[Lefty]

I'll try to address this.

I don't wear 86 tags. The main reason is I don't enjoy factions, at least not anymore. I did factions the first 2 years it was out when we had massive battles and 24 hour sigil guarding. I do not enjoy the stat loss, my game time is very limited now and 20 minutes to wait it just to long. Also I don't need the items.

Another side to this is that I as well as others have friends in just about every guild on this shard. Picking a flag to fly under is pretty hard, and harder if all the invites are from faction guilds. So I chose to run with 86 since they are the underdogs.

As far as working with other guilds, well you know how that goes. It can go good or bad, but whatever comes of it should be expected

As of now you are in the same kind of position I am in, meaning you can be side swiped by any member of any guild at anytime. Since you do play factions and COP is missing in action it might be good to choose a guild.

I thought she had last night! Ruffles [Waka]! =)

 

[Trinsauce]

R yall jealous that Ruffles chose to help the guild with only 2 players on as opposed to the guild with 5?

Yes I am heartbroken and have cried all day about it!

I really enjoyed you and gordon chasing me down while i was dismounted took you long enough to drop me. I was spamming confidence and refresh pots!

Yea i give you credit where credit is due you came in dropped me on my mage so i switched to the archer and by the time i got back everyone was statted and i ended up that way also. Seems like we need to get more organized and fix some of our teamwork problems.

 

[Lefty]

Seems like we need to get more organized and fix some of our teamwork problems.

Yeah, I worked on that last night. After that fight the first thing I did was burn my Kami Kaze' bandana.

 

[Widow Maker]

Tromp, welcome. Damn..your guy got me killed a cpl times the last cpl days and damn near got me killed a few times more. Good to see you in the mix, regardless of what flag you fly.

You were standing a bit too close to SCAM more than a few times tonight..you might want to take a shower to wash the stench off..

 

[Eldron/Numchuck]

Another hectic night at my place again. Khaldun is quickly becoming the new Yew gate. I gotta hand it to WAKA though, they hosed me 3 or 4 times good. Dismounted 2 or more on me, but died none the less. I got my fair share of kills against Zak/Asha and of course the image posted below is the one that caused Mr. Dover to call all of D@D which quickly died and then Waka took the fight over from there. Good fightin fellas. Spare me the trash talk, I play for fun.

Haha, I think I died more times than Kenny from southpark last night! It's my first time truly playing a ninja on the field, and I'm really beginning to respect those who are able to play 'em well. I've typically always been anti-chugging on all my chars, so learning to chug + smokebomb / trapped chests, is really taking a toll on me (and the gold in my bank account) That and the fact I'm rolling with 76 strength atm, which hopefully today I will find time to raise some, lol. But I don't let excuses like that keep me from the fun...live and learn. Or in my case, Die and learn. hehe

As for being close to Scam? I don't consider myself friends with Scam by any means. Me and Hugo/Joe Lord go way back, and are close friends, and he is the only friend I have personally that happens to be in Scam. The tag at the end of his name makes little difference to me. Same way with Thraximus Zog, he was out there last night. We had a lot of fun. Everyone can hate all they want, but friends are friends, and it makes me wonder sometimes how people can flip/flop their friendships weekly for reasons as trivial as guild tags.

Anyways, I had a blast last night despite getting worked hard by Waka, hope to see everyone on the field tonight again. If anyone can recommend a good screenshot program, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Peace.

 

[Widow Maker]

I always wondered why Hugo stayed in SCAM. The *ahem* management *ahem* there was always very vocal about hating him and smack talked him in vent something fierce.

Doesn't matter to me though, friends don't let friends be in SCAM. It's akin to watching your good friend drive drunk. Stupidity at its highest level.

 

[Ruffles]

To My dear friends in COP,

It is with deep regret that I must leave your fine guild. I care very much about all of you and the great times we shared. The decision to leave was a very hard one to make. I love to PvP. It provides a great way to have fun, laugh and get rid of stress. My template is not a good one to play alone . I am a support character and need people to support. Most of COP has been missing for some time now and have been without a team to support.

I have been at a loss as to how to contact our leaders so posting here in hopes that someone will be able to pass on the message. I love you guys and have missed you dearly. My great memories of the times in COP have given me much joy. If you wish to contact me, please PM me and I will be happy to give you my ICQ number.

If someone can contact me about the Minax base house, I would like to transfer this house to someone in COP. I am closing that account at the end of its subscription.

I thank WAKA for taking me into their guild. I have had fun these last few months with the pot shots. In the last few days I have been allowed to fight with them and they are truly a great bunch of guys. I look forward to doing my best to help vanquish "the enemies."

With love, Ruffles
