I don't understand what you are trying to say here, can you please explain?
The title of this thread seemed like you were coming out of the closet. It is a reference of a person whom is attracted to the same sex but does not tell anyone yet and then when he tells people he "comes out of the closet" That's what the title seemed to me at first.

Yet after seeing that it was not, you chose to make a disparaging remark about what you perceived to be my sexual orientation? Clearly a violation of the Stratics TOS, Shame on you for violating the TOS you have been screaming about not being enforced.

So how quick will I get killed on Siege if I walk around with the title Trammie?

To Trammie or to not Trammie that is the question :) The last few weeks I have been going outside my normal hunting grounds and yes using stealth as I am playing my Dungeon thief. Thus far I have been very trammie in my behavior. There has been a lot more dungeon activity. There have been several opportunities to kill or errr get other players killed by the mobs. A few well placed energy fields can ruin someones whole trip if dropped in choke points when they are red lined and running to heal. Cheap tactic? Sure it is, but it is Siege and it is legal :) At the end of the day I opted to un stealth and heal the potential victims and go on about my business. Now I did do one bit of evil and I totally did not think about taking a screen shot at the time :( I found one of our new shard cheaters afk training mage and necro in a quiet corner of the Abyss and disarmed them of their staff and cleaned their back pack out. As tempting as it was to lure some spawn over to them I decided they would be upset enough to find the pack empty and be weaponless when they returned. Totally Trammie on my part :) Found another AFK down in room with the two Daemons in Hythloth letting their pet kill the Daemons while they stood in a corner hidden. Revealed them using detect and they instantly hid again but did not move so I dropped a poison field and kept revealing until a Daemon spawned closer to them than the dragon and killed them in short order. Then taking a page out of Bo's book...... I cut their armor up and left the leather beside their corpse. Not such a trammie thing to do :) Now lets keep in mind Tyreth is not exactly a PVP war machine at 120 stealing, 120 stealth 100 hiding, 100 detect, 120 mage and 100 snoop, 100 wrestling and at 798 total skill with jewels running a all 70s 7lmc 7MI 100 lrc horned leather suit. A very trammie suit but very well suited for a cheesy dungeon thief. No there is nothing to steal in Hythloth I was making a run to the bottom on a Chaga collecting trip :) What I have noticed more than anything over the last few weeks is there is a lot more activity in the dungeons scripter and attended alike. Last winter I rarely if ever saw anyone in a dungeona and the Abyss other than a couple of shard regulars farming was empty.

So the question is to continue as a Trammie helping the attended players with a heal now and then or be a cold heart and pop out and block that choke point with walls and e fields? And take their fat loots :) It goes without saying I will always either clean a AFKs pack out or get the killed by any means with the mechanics of the game, but to me that is no different than killing and looting a headless one. Will I ever be a PvP threat? LOL I have the pvp skills of a rock, but I can be a real PITA when I want to to be without directly engaging in PvP.

In old days before Trammel, most started the game as non PvP'ers, trying to kill the mobs. They joined up with some friends to be safe in numbers and started to try to fight back.
Some of them would go the anti PK rule and start to try to run protect their guild and guard the hunting spots and join in, when someone recalled to Brit bank and yelled PK's at crossroad.

Some of them would end up as PK's and some was not ready to go red and would take the noto PK role and kill anything, that would not give them a count. The last group got very little respect.

I believe you got to where you would like some more interaction but as Siege had been very peaceful, you had not really been able to start with fighting back. You did try out VvV too, but died faster than you expected to my bow.

My advice would be to put up a RP story about your char and start with trying to kill some of the farmers you find out there. It may be easier to fight blue than red and VvV and you can add some spice to your victims game too. How much you loot and what could be a part of your RP story, could be gold and imbuing resources as that hurt less than destroy their suit.

Good luck to you.

Thats fantastic! And good work, btw. Make screenshots. We all love good stories.

When I log into my Siege characters I consider that I'm not a 'trammie', nor a 'fellie', I'm a Sieger! But then I only have 2 crafters and a resource gatherer (for which I stole the Siege slot on my son's account). I try to avoid dying; but since I have no fighting ability, when I do, I try to do it with good grace.

I try to do as close to the healers as possible ;)

LOL I did not expect to live more than 5 seconds being that character had 50 swords, 20 tactics and crap armor :) And if you remember correctly I was not fighting back, I attacked you :) Why would I kill farmers? They are just trying to earn a Siege living. Now your AFK and script buddies I will cheez kill them at every opportunity in particular when they are AFK . And to be honest I really could careless if a pack of cheaters respects me or not.

Some farmers do like the adrialin rush, that's why they play Siege. If done with RP and with little or no looting, they may enjoy it, special when the attacker is not much of a PvP'er and they have a chance to kill you it they try.
As a vampire, I only wanted their blood. I would love to see more life on Siege again, maybe then I would hunt a little again :p

I only run stealth on one character and I am fairly easy to find :) Maybe one day you will run across my Dragon Food Character or Grand Zoogie out farming. They don't die so easy ;)
