So you lose a girlfriend in RL to someone in this game, so now you have to KoS the entire ally of that member who stole your girlfriend. OMG.. what a shame to bring RL Issues into a game. This is a SAD day for the Patriots Clan/Aegis Ally to use RL issues as a reason to KoS.
Take out your RL issues with the REAL WORLD, not in a game.
So we all suffer because ONE guy couldn't keep his girlfriend in RL. WHAT A SHAME, so disappointed that you want to ruin a game for others not involved in this RL issue.

Sorry to hear about your suffering.
This truly is a sad day.
However.
I do like the irony of RL crying over a game because someone is bringing RL issues to the game and making you(...and yes, all of us) sad.

You are 110% wrong here.
The initial situation was based on a real life issue.. involving someone's *wife*, of many years.. not their "girlfriend". It was supposed to begin and end between the two people involved. That's it.
Unfortunately certain individuals from AG got involved - in a personal issue - and starting group ganking our member - about 5 times - basically claiming they would continue to and there was nothing anyone could do about it.
Got that? AG couldn't leave it alone and chose to escalate it. Not Patriots. Not Aegis.
And it did not even stop there. Apparently Officers in AG began running their mouth at Achyliss, our leader, saying some *extremely* crude and personal things about the Patriots member involved *and* Achyliss's gf which, I'm sure would immediately get the offenders kicked from LII if reported. Yes.. that personal. That crude.
Beyond that, they began insulting Achyliss, telling him he didn't know how to play, he's a moron.. and so on. So, Achy told them to put their money where their mouth was and come on outside a town to fight it out - one on one.
Then, an AG Officer said, to paraphrase, "I will put AG against you any day. You are s..t". So.. we did.. We got all our members together and headed out to EV, where they said they'd be. They were nowhere to be found. A short time later, AG backed down, saying something like "we don't have time for you".
Eventually, it culminated in what happened last night.
So... no.. This is not about a personal issue - or it should not have been. This is a direct result of people in AG not leaving a 1-on-1 issue remain that way. Running their mouths, challenging our leader, and proceeding to say some extremely awful stuff... I mean.. things you dont' even say to another human being - in a game or otherwise.
So if you want to know why a "personal rl issue" was escalated into what it is now.. Look no farther than Avalon Guard.
I know this is probably not a "popular" solution, but besides actual ingame politics, this smacks of the "harassment" that one is not supposed to do ingame.
I see so many people complaining about harassment that isn't harassment "he pk'ed me", "she scammed me". etc.
But when there is "real" harassment people forget that there is a recourse.
In any event, sorry to hear that people are having real life issues. It's a shame because a game is supposed to be just that... a game.. a diversion.
I suppose that is the problem with playing with real people who just don't have the same sensibilities.

That is what this is all about.
What proof do you have to back all of this up? I would love to see it. If your story is true, then it will be dealt with. Our members have never "group ganked" anyone, im not sure why all of a sudden...we just decided to now. I see very little truth in your statement. This whole thing started from a RL issue, yes....and the next thing i know is i hear my people are getting killed randomly..people that dont even have a clue about whats going on. Three on one kinda kills too. I suggest that unless you are a leader of your alliance, or an official spokesperson, then you keep your lies to yourself. My people will not speak out of line on this matter anymore either. Its a joke to me that a RL issue will try to bring down the integrity of my alliance. So, if you have a problem with my people personally...you bring it to me. I will not waste my time talking to random people though....your leadership can address me..perhaps they will have their side of the story straight at that time....and by all means...please send me screenshots or proof of any sort. If what you say is true...it will be dealt with.
Of course....as everyone knows...theres three sides to every story. Side A...Side B....and the truth...somewhere in the middle. Childish acts like this will not be tolerated in my alliance...or will not be tolerated if brought at my alliance.

ROFL.... how nostalgic... for some reason I believe this to be true without a doubt.
In any event, sorry to hear that people are having real life issues. It's a shame because a game is supposed to be just that... a game.. a diversion.
My point exactly, I play this game to enjoy it. Not be ganked by a higher lvl char because someone is having RL issues.
Once again.. If you want to know why your entire group is KOS.. look no farther than your own leadership. They brought this way beyond what it started as, and should have remained as.

I don't think it was the leadership i think it was a few rogue individuals running vigalante. I find the AG Leadership (for the majority) to be a good , healthy group who don't seek to do evil. But then again I am no longer apart of AG so this is just on my past experience.

Yes. There are screenshots of the comments. They have been emailed to the appropriate people - those directly involved and personally affected. No, they will not be posted here because they involve personal matters and people's names. Not fodder for public consumption. I know it's not uncommon for people to post such personal screenshots and such here, thinking it's "cool" or whatever.. But out of respect for individuals involved - on at least one side of the situation - they will not be posted here.
Now, if the individual who took them chooses to post them, then that's their decision. Personally, I don't see it happening.
If you understand that. Great. If not, then I'm sorry.

Yes. It was an AG Officer. Or the alt of one, as I understand it.
Well. I am the leader of AG...and if there are screenshots, then I would love to see them so that the appropriate actions can be taken. PM me and ill send you my email.
I totally agree that all this is ugly needless drama and I am not real happy that our clanmate's RL issue got brought in game. I feel worse it was brought here to the forums! I feel its on the weird side actually. We could not control his actions nor is it our place to, which if you knew the story justifies RL action. But that isn't what the battle was about.
We in no way feel this is a reflection of everyone in Avalon Guard. There are many awesome people in that alliance.The action last night was the result of extremely vile comments by that AG leader. And I mean overthetop vile. I apologise to those in AG that lost XP, but to those who showed up to support this Scumbag in the battle, sorry....but you took the risk. We were there to back up our leader and kill...not have a fair PvP. We didn't smack talk, we just did what we were challenged to do by this AG Clan leader! If AG members feel they must continue to support this guy then there will be more of the same I am afraid. I think when you read what this guy said, you might not feel so proud and will understand why we felt so angry.
When Achyliss gets home I am going to have him mail me the SS's of the comments and post them on our clan public forum, with his permission, anyone who wants to read it will have the option.
a) Someone's wife(or girlfriend) got stolen away (i don't quiet know the details seem shady)
or is the issue
b) Rude comments said after the wife incident that caused this to escalate? lol
It started out 1v1.
Rude comments from certain alliance officers and/or their alts escalated this to the position it is in.
While I would like to keep my alliance out of this, I know all of the parties involved in it. And I know how some of them act, and some of thie things they are tempted to say and do. While the majority of AG seems to be fairly nice, I do know that two of the ocfficers involved have a tendency to run their mouths and to escalate problems. That being said, I will say the same thing I said to Legionaires when KoS joined their alliance: Do your homework on a clan before inviting them into your alliance.
I have nothing personal against the officers from AG that caused this to escalate, and won't hold against them what they say or do. That is every much their right as it is any other player's right. But if you are going to talk bad about another player, then it is best that you make sure you have the fortitude to stand by your convictions, the courage to see through what you started, and the conviction to stand by your beliefs.
What I find amusing is the fact that noone will send them to me. Ive been waiting, yet nothing. Ive made the statement that if someone in the AG alliance is found to be out of line and unprovoked...then they will be dealt with, yet all this so called proof...cant seem to find its way to me.
Does a clan have to have a non rl reason to start a fight with another can? As so many people say to me all the time: This is a PvP game. Anybody can do whatever he pleases to another ingame just for the heck of it. Does it matter that someone brought a rl issue into the game?
But maybe Sovrath is right and does an accident like this fall under harassment. I personally doubt it, but I would say, talk to support about this.

Achyliss isnt home yet. When he gets home you will get them. No worries.

ah thanks for clearing that up for me.
Out of curiousity and off topic, are you guys using the new war system or you just flagging, i am curious to how it works in real battle situations.

I was a victim in this fight between two players, three players.. whatever. I logged on, helped out an ally member with A shots. Then logged on my summoner to continue to lvl, and all I did was port out of town.. and before my screen was even complete.. i was PK'd. So as an "innocent" who knew nothing of your fight, why did I have to get the brunt of it. Because I share an ally tag? No, you should keep your fight with the people you are upset with not other players who have no idea at the time why they were PK'd.
Your clan member and an ally member of AG not leader of AG brought a real life issue into the game, and it was escalated to major proportions.

Achyliss isnt home yet. When he gets home you will get them. No worries.
So are these screenshots of the so called "group gankings" (the term used by one of your own) or of just the trash talk done later in the night? It looked like there are two alledged issues here and I would love the chance to take care of anything that might have happened.
Curious though. What about the random PKs done to my ally mates long before the battle last night, when supposedly our member called you out? Will those be dealt with by your alliance...cause you seem to be "sorry" for the XP loss done to the innocents in my alliance.

All I have to say is:
Wow.
While I fully understand your concern with protecting your alliance from further harm and disruption, being callous about things does not benefit your alliance at all..
I will be sad when AG is no more, because of the actions and responses from a couple of the members in the alliance. There are many good people in AG, and the alliance itself has much potential to be great. I just wish people would think about the way they phrase things when dealing with issues that carry a heavy undertone of emotion.

/cries for AG
Please dont try to read into it more that what I actually said. It is an honest question. One member of your alliance stated that my guys did group ganking in your alliance. This is the only thing ive heard about this. I want to take care of an "bad apples" in my alliance, yet we do have proof of random pks of innocents from your alliance. All i would like to know is if this will be dealt with or is this something that your alliance allows and/or promotes. My guys arent allowed to pull gankings on people and will be dealt with immediately. We both know that there are more than one person at fault here...please dont play innocent and that this is one sided...cause everyone knows its not. My guys will be dealt with the moment I have proof and it can be talked over with the council....all i wanted to know was ...if you would do the same.
No...there are no "frapps" or screen shots of any gankings! Its one clans word against anothers...and nothing "here" is going to fix that or regain anything.
Tempers flew....ganks happened on both sides at the start. How do you propose we all fix this? Playing these "you did it, no you did it" forum games is pointless to me....but knock yourself out if you feel the need.
you are right! There is more than one person at fault here. The RL issue was brought into game...which imo it shouldnt have. Sorry, can't take that back though. You're ally was attacked by our clannie for being a snake to his wife, and taunting him as well in chat. Sorry, we couldnt control that either.
The wronged Patriot is a dorf, so not much good for PvP and died of course. So other clannies not knowing what was all goin on stepped in to help. So yep, ganks happened. Started by a weird IRL issue. Shouldnt have happened. Sorry bout that too.
So I absolutely agree. It wasn't AG's fault. It was 2 people not keeping RL out of game.
The battle was a whole nuther issue. Your Clan Leader taunting Achyliss and being a total scumbucket, before and after he got all his alliance members killed, is the real issue you will have to deal with. Which I know you will handle rightly.
No...there are no "frapps" or screen shots of any gankings! Its one clans word against anothers...and nothing "here" is going to fix that or regain anything.
Tempers flew....ganks happened on both sides at the start. How do you propose we all fix this? Playing these "you did it, no you did it" forum games is pointless to me....but knock yourself out if you feel the need.
Feel the need? Not at all. Im just trying to get some clear statements so that I can make a correct decision on this matter. I see no tempers flarring now, im here to fix this and get on with our lives. I need to know as much as possible though so that I can make the right decision.
Is asking for proof not a valid request? You suggest I just boot two clans from my alliance cause you said so? I need to know what really happened, so until I can get some knowledge on this....I guess we are in limbo.
And dont worry...you will never have to wonder what my intentions are. My words speak exactly how I will deal with something and what I will do about it. Please stop trying to read more into what im saying.
Hey I feel for ya as an alliance leader. I understand what you are trying to do. As I said before, we in no way feel the actions of 1 or 2 people reflect a whole clan or alliance. We have a lot of respect for you guys. All I can say at this point is if any of our guys were out of hand it will be dealt with. Thats a promise! :D
I was a victim in this fight between two players, three players.. whatever. I logged on, helped out an ally member with A shots.

Your clan member and an ally member of AG not leader of AG brought a real life issue into the game, and it was escalated to major proportions.
And about innocents being attacked with no knowledge of the issues, I just have this to say:
Whether you are aware of the issues or not, this escalated to something alliance-wide. As a member of an alliance, you bear both the advantages and disadvantages of your alliance. Whether you like this or not. It happens that in this case it was a major disadvantage to you, so you are mad that you got pk'd by a member of an alliance who has issues with your alliance. That is the price you have to pay for being in an alliance at times. Whether either side had valid reasons is not enough to justify your involvement. You being in the alliance justifies your involvement. And nothing personal against you, but if you don't like it, then leave and you won't have that issue to deal with. I will make the assumption that you will stay behind your alliance from what I know about you. That is completely your choice, and bears the consequences of that choice whether you agree with them or not.
Being in an alliance means more than just some people to party with. Our server has large, well-formed alliances. Other servers do not have this like we do. This type of things makes you think a little harder about what your goals in the game are. It IS a PvP game, and while not everyone likes PvP, it does happen, and there isn't much that can be done about it. Especially when people's emotions and pride are at stake.
And just to clarify a little further Arthos, I am not in Aegis alliance. I have many friends on both sides of this issue, including everyone that is directly involved with it. I would prefer to keep the peace on the server than to have mass chaos. That is not always a feasible option however.
Well, we shall see what happens when Achyliss returns home this evening nonetheless.
Even though my words will fall on deaf ears i wish for all parties of this thread to stop posting,
your doing more harm to your alliance and your names than your doing good. You hurt your own growth and smere your names with drama and conflict.
The very creation of this post is foul in nature, because now your names are in the public eye, and leave your alliances to unspoken judgement.
You scare off potential and possibly would be allies or clan members with your petty bickering and howling for proof. To allow an incident so filled with drama to spew onto the public floor for all to see is shame on itself. So for the sake of your alliances I request a cease fire and take this to private messages or emails where it belongs. It would be wise to heed my words if you don't it does no harm to me. If there is PVP that needs to be done then let it be done , but no reason for it to be here.
This has to be the most disturbing post i've ever read. my sympathies to any aggrieved parties. I hope things work out, and mental peace can be found. I personally find real life pain to be more important than game leveling. So please be kind about getting upset about what happens to your game character, when someones life might be falling apart. Reasonable people arent going to start an alliance fight cause of rl issues. most people wouldnt want to touch it with a ten foot pole. most likely someone couldnt stop running their mouth. that would make someones friends start a group fight rl issue or not, escpecially if they are having a rough time
Even though my words will fall on deaf ears i wish for all parties of this thread to stop posting,
your doing more harm to your alliance and your names than your doing good. You hurt your own growth and smere your names with drama and conflict.
The very creation of this post is foul in nature, because now your names are in the public eye, and leave your alliances to unspoken judgement.
You scare off potential and possibly would be allies or clan members with your petty bickering and howling for proof. To allow an incident so filled with drama to spew onto the public floor for all to see is shame on itself. So for the sake of your alliances I request a cease fire and take this to private messages or emails where it belongs. It would be wise to heed my words if you don't it does no harm to me. If there is PVP that needs to be done then let it be done , but no reason for it to be here.

I agree. Well put. I would prefer this issue didn't come into the forums - it's bad enough with where it's gone in-game. But.. someone brought it here, and posted without having the full picture. I wanted to make sure the situation was presented as it happened. Not based on 2nd or 3rd-hand information.
And here I was hoping for a peaceful resolution to this situation.
Turns out that AG officers can't keep their mouths shut.
Arthos, if you want your alliance to survive, you know what you need to do. Your choice determines your future from this point forward. I am giving you this bit of advice as a friend. Take it how you will, but the wrong choice in this will mean the end of AG and I'm sad to see that day pass.
R.I.P. to all my friends in Avalon Guard.

Akirah although hard to understand when you begin a fight with a member of a clan, it hurts there reputation more if you pk there friends and drag the innocents into, im sorry you got ganked but welcome to l2 and have fun : ).
While this whole thing is disturbing, I find an even more heinous underlying tone here that L2 has spawned and is mirrored IRL.
Being a part of the U.S. military, we have learned to deal with the equality (physically) between a woman and a man. We are taught equality on all levels, and it is drilled into us on a daily basis through interaction with the opposite sex. However; when the apple goes sour, you will always revert to mother nature's way of handling things. The man MUST protect the woman, regardless of fault or full info. This is the basis of the argument on why women in the military should not be allowed in combat. When they fall, the man will automatically stop his mission to see to his fallen comrade, whereas if it is a man next to him, he naturally adjusts his mission to overcome the fallen comrades area of responsibility.
In L2, I have seen the uninformed and (dare I say) *****/immature/young nature take over at the first insult to a woman. I have no clue what happened here, but it looks like a clan jumped to the defense of the wife for being mistreated IRL. The actions ensuing are tearing apart an alliance.
Somewhere in all this typing, I lost my point... :eek:
Whew! So much to read and so little time. I must say that this is the part of the game that I like the least. Why! Oh Why! [everyone together] Why can't we all just get along! [thanks]
Yea, this kind of thing sucks. But, let's face it. In all likelyhood, this will never be sorted out to everyone's satisfaction. Such is the nature of emotionally charged conflicts.
However, I will render one opinion, let's not beat up people too much for bringing RL influences in the game. The diversity that we all bring, the personality that we all bring, the influences that we all bring from the RL is what supports the game longevity that we enjoy. We all need to bring a little RL in with us to keep the game interesting. But there is a line...this event sure crossed it.
It sound like this thing was just about resolved, that the people closest to problem had agreed to keep it simple and keep it quiet. Then a few inconsiderate people publicized a painful private problem [how's that for alliteration]...escalation ensued.
I think the real tragedy here, is that losing your spouse is a terrible terrible thing. I can only imagine how painful it is for all concerned. I believe that it is likely difficult enough that it just should'nt be used as a reason for anyone else to pile-on more agonizing drama. It's got to be hard enough already on the people involved that we really should not use the one place where people can escape from the hardships that they are facing in RL and use it as a place to pile-on.
So, I say...take a breath...have a beer...and [one more time together]...Why can't we all just get along!
LOL...I have'nt had time to ever post here because I spend all my time saving your [censored] from killer elpys!...pfft..who am I kidding I am a 60+ noob. So, what's this Spiritshot thing? Is that something I can use? Do I just throw those at mobs?
