Re: horse stealing

[Digglez]

What are you gonna do with your horse then ? Why you spawn with a horse ? Gate is not open , you gonna leech and do nothing until someone open the gate ? He took your horse once, not many times ... and it was right at the beginning of the round. Stop being such a crying baby, it's a game , remember ?

Ban request denied

*Locked*

I'd appreciate you not closing topics that are not done.  Its clear you do not have an open mind on the subject.  You dont play cav so I guess I cant expect you to know that a cav on siege with their own ladder to get over walls and mess with defenders (open gates, kill unaware archers, distract defenders away from important chokepoints, etc).  Ask NH, DL, gK how powerful cav can be on siege.  I love the confused and scared look of defenders that do not expect cav inside the castle BEFORE infantry.

Instead of writing off reports of griefing as 'cry baby' (that clearly violate written rules), maybe instead you could have said there is insufficient evidence instead of making excuses for douchebags.

And did I ever ask for a ban? NO, again jumping to conclusions instead of discussion.

I'd like action take against Hospitaler Blazeknight for Horse stealing & tw'ing.

Sounds like a ban request to me.

yep, because action must mean ban, every single time!  Maybe update written rules, issue warning, etc.

Just like when kids get kidnapped or killed, they get a law named after them.

Diggles Law
If you see someone dismount from their horse, this does not mean you can take it away from them instantly.  Watch them for 5 seconds before you become a horse thief.  Take time to ask them them in chat or if they ask for it back swiftly, do the right thing and dont ride off with it like a douchebag.

[Nehvar]

Horse thieves!? Get your ropes.

[Jarlek]

I agree with Digglez here. The only thing more annoying than those DAMNED horse thieves are those teammates who kill it the SECOND your off.

[Rangerbob]

Its annoying but its not explicitly against the rules.  If you complain to an admin he can issue a warning under the common sense/trolling clause and if it keeps happening intentionally the guy will be kicked.  In this case it just happened once.  You did get off the horse and he didn't teamwound you or your horse.  The screen shot was only him getting on the horse which proves nothing.  Either way there's nothing we can do at this point, which is why the thread was locked.  Best thing to do next time is hope an admin is on and ask for the guy to be watched if he's just following you around stealing your horse.

Don't go down of your horse?

yes he tw'ed the horse twice intentionally, like I said in the post.  You can see the longsword coming thru the horse. (Ya its not that great)

[Malaclypse]

The moment an ally gets off of a horse, that equid beast is my mortal enemy. I am compelled with great fervor to end it, quite irrationally; I am powerless to save myself from this affliction, and throw Malaclypse at the mercy of the community.

Here's a thought, why not use teamwork to accomplish your objectives, instead of getting off your horse. Beyond that horses wander, if your teammate hadn't grabbed it, it would have wandered towards people who would think "Why is a horse here" and slaughtered it, or towards a clever flanking enemy who would then proceed to have a field day. At least a teammate is using it for the common good.

I don't drop my weapons then complain when people pick them up. Your horse is a part of your equipment, getting off it and walking away is the same as dropping a desirable sword on the ground and walking away.

If you don't want people to have to get off their horses, then make ladders throw-able from horseback. Otherwise, don't give Diggles this teamwork shit or the stay on your horse shit. Diggles is cav. He's also one of the best ladder placers I know. You can't ask him to lose his horse every time he wants to help his team.

Kind of like some people are great shielders/crossbowmen/pikemen and yet they can't do everything they want at once either? Yeah it's "shit" saying that if you want to be cav you can't do certain actions that infantry handle, what a shocker.

[Chris_P_Bacon]

What's the difference between carrying a bigass ladder and throwing one?
