Title: Are we them!?

Author: Kerry


What you are about to read is a series of questions. Also I have included some of my ideals and the way I see things. I know I am not the only person who sees them this way. Perhaps after reading this you will see what I mean.

You, as a citizen of Rivendell or patron of the Hungry Halfing, do no like noto pks correct? I will assume you answered yes to this. Since you do not like noto pks you would like to see them gone, correct? Once again I will assume yes. Now I would like to find out what a noto pk is. This is a player who wishes to kill other players who are criminally flagged or have a murderer status, right? Yes again. These noto pks like to fight, PvP, yes? Okay. So we know they want to fight, that's what they come to Rivendell for as a matter of fact, to fight, to kill, to make money? I think more so to fight. To have "fun" as they see it. They are probably bored. Monsters are easy to kill once you get good at it. Once you learn how the AI works they are easy.

Everyone will learn this in time. But fighting other people, an intelligent person behind the controls, less predictable then a monster right?

Now we have concluded that a noto is someone who is probably bored with regular game play. So they have decided to fight other people. They do so by attacking those that they will not take a murder count for.

Now let me ask another question. If someone attacks you do you feel you should fight back? Why? Is it shameful to not fight someone if you do not wish to fight him? *Shrugs* Now let me ask you this. If someone you wish to punish asks for something do you give it to him? No? Hmm well that makes perfect sense doesn't it! If you want to punish someone then you don't give him what he wants! Well We decided earlier that we don't want noto pks in Rivendell. We also decided that noto pks want to fight; probably even if they die they had "fun" fighting. Then let me ask you this last question. Why would you give the noto pk the fight that they want when you do not want them in Rivendell? Now to look at another point of view. You are someone who doesn't generally fight these noto pks.

You enjoy coming to Rivendell. You don't like noto pks just like everyone else. But wait. Now there's a noto pks outside. Why does someone who frequents the Halfling decide they will kill the noto? Would this not be giving the noto the very fight he wants?!

Now let me conclude this. The person that says they do not like noto pks is one of two things. They are either out right dumb and don't realize that the noto pk wants to fight uhh duh or they are a hypocrite, they enjoy fighting and this is the very reason the noto pks still come to Rivendell. Now I ask you to do one more thing. Take a good hard look at who you are, think about who noto pks are.

Then I want you to decide what you will do next time a noto pk is at the Halfling. I also want you to look at everyone else and try to decide who they are. Just open your mind for a while and take a good hard look at what's going on around you!

Thank you for reading this I hope maybe it will open some eyes!
