PvP Requests to Portalarium

I definitely think we need to redefine these terms, or come up with a standard dictionary as to how these terms related to SOTA. Traditionally PK is used as a player that attacks a player without consent. However, this meaning is also exclusively to PVP or Open PVP games. Since SOTA will NOT ALLOW you to attack someone until they have consented to be involved in PVP, this really means something different in SOTA.

In the SOTA context a PK is really someone who wants to play an evil role and have a "profession" consisting of killing other players who opted in (consented to) PVP. That is not to say that there are elements that would prefer non-consensual or forced PVP, but that is not an option in SOTA so those people might be better described as Pure PKs or Griefers (since this would not be allowed or supported in SOTA).

I guess until we unify on these definitions we will continue to have mis-communications on many of these topics.

 

If anyone is interesting in defining and standardizing these terms...

Did I say it was in regards to this game? It was following on from the hypothetical statements earlier. Not that hard.

Yeesh......
