Please do not play the fool. The ranks of those are far to swelled with our society's path of reverse Darwinism. Let's break down your statements:
"Funny you should say that.... If I was to turn your post around, I'd say you're wanting to flag the bards so they can't disco pets inside the guardzone. Yet what about the unkillable tamer who attracted the bard to begin with? Why does he deserve to be invulnerable while he picks off red players? He's blue and the most you risk with a disco'd pet is the pet death. Not your own."
Wrong on all counts. The Bard, sitting in GZ discoing and direct peacing your pet has no risk at all. They are not there to fight. The tamer, while sitting in GZ with 20 enemies waiting outside the gate area. The tamer flags on a red/grey. They get em..maybe they don't (more often don't). That player is then under attack from anyone who they aggroed (or who aggroed to their pets) on and stand a good chance of getting killed. That is fine, that is the risk. They are FAR from "unkillable"..rofl.
"Yep, I've never seen a disco bard outside Yew gate, and oddly enough have never had my pets disco'd in Fel. Which suggests the bards are there purely to deal with cowardly tamers and fully justifies keeping bards exactly as they are. Invulnerable tamers make blue disco bards necessary, whether you like that or not."
Don't know what shard you play on but I take my blue bard to spawns every single day. Disco the champ and stave off the raiders pets and dexxers. Highly useful. Your suggestion is thus moot and useless. The invulnerable tamers" comment was taken care of earlier and is useless as well.
"A disco'd pet isn't useless, if you train your pets up first, even with disco'd skills they're capable of killing players. If someone bothers you inside the guardzone, take your pets out of it and then they'll be just fine."
That entire statement is so far beyond wrong, it isn't even in the realm of anything representing right..lol. I think we are a bit less intelligent for even reading it. Lord knows what it did to you by just writing it. You may need professional help now. Do you honestly believe what you just wrote???
"Seriously though, how many tamers go to Yew gate and walk out the guardzone to fight properly? By properly I mean putting themselves at risk of death by going outside the guardzone and staying there. The bard isn't just being an arse, he knows full well as I do, that a tamer popping out of Yew gate is after easy red kills. If he didn't need Yew gate to cover his arse, he wouldn't be hugging it - he'd be straight through the moongate and running around in the open looking for a fight. When he parks up in the guardzone his intentions are obvious and he's a legit target for a bard. The sooner that tamer learns to fight or moves on, the better IMO. "
I was going to smash this statement as easily as the rest but it is so weak that it can't stand on its own. I trust in people's ability to spot a pathetic statement and will just leave it alone.
Quite simple, there is absolutely no defensible position to take against the statement that a blue bard discoing or direct peacing a blue pet should absolutely go grey, at least to the tamer if not to the world at large. Since it is an attack, it should be to the world at large.
my blue bard!
