Whats the purpose of ksing?
Well an hour before this sc started, these a-holes came in and started ksing me on my sader. I ask nicely for them to cc. They ignore.
So I get on my mech (this was mp3 btw) to try and fight them off. (If you don't like this so far then there's a back button for a reason) Not for the sole purpose of getting back at them, but I want to find out a reason as to why they ks specifically one map they choose. This isn't the first time I've been ksed because if that were the case then I would've thought [i]"eh wtf, sc is in an hour I'll just go into the ship or w.e"[/i] and bounced. But I just stayed to find out [b]WHY[/b] EVERY SINGLE KSER has to stay and ks me. Isn't it easier to go and ks someone else? I mean if I'm fighting them off, they'd realize that the exp is slow. But no, they just stay with the excuse "I'm still getting exp so idc" and they insult me because I'm a one man army. Look, my point here is [b]WHY[/b] do ksers stay even though the next channel has probably better exp? Is it to piss me off? Is it because every kser is a retard? Iunno but it pisses me off when they think they're superior because they say "oh look he's just wasting his time" I know I am, but it's for a reason. Can someone please tell me why or if they feel the same way?
[b]And if you guys that were ksing me read this: laugh all you want, but don't feel to happy that 3v1 makes you feel so special.[/b]
(Trolls, idc do what you want).
EDIT: Note that I did nothing to insult them back in anyway, I just took the insults and did not care.
EDIT2: PLEASE LISTEN! MY POINT IS WHY DO KSERS KS WHEN IT'S POINTLESS, NOT WHY WAS I KSED IN MP3. THAT'S A DUMB POINT. Many of you guys are misunderstanding me
EDIT3: This was RIGHT AFTER 2x. Not during. After.

when im bored i go to jesters and ks people. i do it until they ask nicely for me to leave.
they secretly work for the government to encourage children to go outside and play or else theyre gonna get d/c lol idk cuz theyre trolls and they have no life
To get a good training spot? That and trolling purposes.
[quote=Rapistmaoris]probably 80% of the time People Just like to watch your reactions on the situation and you Starting to rage.(Myself Included) Just dont let it get to you and Im shure They will leave after awhile after all Those jerks will realise your cutting their exp and find someone else. I have a Bera 180 Bishop so if your in trouble come find me AchilIesHeaI[/quote]
Thanks for the advice, but I kept my cool. And they didn't realize the slow in exp, they were just being stubborn d*cks...
[quote=zeck96]They stayed because its human nature to be stubborn. They try to ks you; you try to ks them; it happens everywhere on maple because its an instinct in the brain that basically tries to show dominance, it no longer matters about the XP and becomes about annoying each other. I can prove this because you stayed on your mech until the SC happened while you could have been training your sader.[/quote]
Look now you've answered my question. Thank you.
[quote=DrY3sMan]But I never left, the sc kicked us all out. I do not leave until my objective is complete. I ask "why me" because they obviously see me trying to get them out by depleting their desired exp. However, they stay because.. iunno that's what I'm trying to figure out. I'm not asking why I got picked, I'm asking why did they continue getting crappy exp. So don't call this post idiotic if you do not even get my point.[/quote]

To get the Damn Map
[quote=zeck96]Honestly this is an idiotic post, why did you KS the people who came on to your map and began to KS you? To get them out. Same reasoning with them. Also what do you mean "why me?" There are like 19 channels in bera so there's a 1/19 chance of your channel being picked. You got unlucky DEAL WITH IT.
Ksing is not pointless. The point of Ksing is to get the people on the map to leave for better XP. You should know this since you ksed back.[/quote]

Someone once ksed my bandit so i brought my wh to ks him back. He used the ""I'm still getting exp so idc" method on me and i just kept ksing. 5minutes later he cced.
Thank you all for the helpful comments
I feel your pain man. I just started my hermit last Saturday, and people have been "trying" to ks me, but weren't really successful. I brought my 184 i/l mage to Jesters just in case people came in, (in which they did) and when I was on my hermit I'd always say this "Can you change channels please?" some would either say yes, or not even bother talking.. Like seriously? Then I logged onto my mage and forced them out.. It's really annoying and frustrating. I had to waste half of my 2x today fighting off ks'ers. I could have easily got another 3-4 levels >.<
OT: If you were in Khaini I'd help you out, and we could team up together
I feel you ._. I was training at jesters toy room i asked him Change channel please like 3 times ._. and he continued to ks me. T_T

[quote=MyGunner]@DrY3sMan: Sometimes the KSers win. It's sad but its true.[/quote]
I know that... not my point... ahh whatever..
I feel u bro this kid named SCQTT (110 TB) followed me in every ch in MP3 just to KS ME. I had to bring out my hero to scare him away -.-
[quote=shenronx13]@DrY3sMan: They ks because that's what they do. Its part of MMO's. Why do people go to church? Why do people vote for idiots? Why to people buy McDonnald's food when it tastes like garbage? Why are their trolls on the internet?
Its just how things are. The mysterious ways of the world. You should know to expect it. Asking wont get you anywhere.[/quote]

[quote=Spaznats]From the ksers point of view it could be to simply get a map when all other channels are full. I mean LHC was pretty hectic during x2 today...[/quote]
Ever hear of butting in line? People go on hours before 2x and such to get those maps and then ksers come in rudely and waste your time.
[quote=MyGunner]Unfortunately the people who try to KS while a person is training there usually don't have a very good reason other then because they can. If in fact they are trying to get a map to train in they will try to KS on one of the easy classes to KS with i.e. Mech, Dawn Warrior, DB, Ranger, TB. This is because these classes have skills that are able to reach a large amount of monsters while still causing decent damage at a decent speed. The Best way to avoid the types of people KSing for fun is to (as previously said by @ShoppingBag) is to ignore them. The people who are trying to steal the map at all costs, unless they have attempted to hack or dc you, should be dealt with not by words but by actions.
[b][*] KS them back
[*] Bring in a higher level character (usually works the best)[/b]
[*] Have a friend come and help
[*] Make a party with the other people in the map and have them help
Usually your friends will help you in a bad situation if not then your alliance members or your party members.[/quote]
I've done 2 of the 3 above things (bolded) and attempted the 3rd but people my bl/ally were still in lhc right after 2x >_>
>Search every channel
>All channels full
>Pick one with the least amount of people
>Try to take it
:l
[quote=shenronx13]K. I found 7. Maybe its because you are in one of the 4 most overpopulated servers. If you can't deal with people ks'ing you, don't put yourself in a position to be ks'd.
~ Train on heavy populated map.
~ Be in overpopulated server.
~ Have no channel guard or backup.
That's pretty much asking for it. You know they are they, you know they do it. At least they didn't d/c lock you. That's how some guilds roll when they claim LHC maps. They won't even waste time KS'ing you, just lock your character up.[/quote]
(BTW if you didn't know it was mp3, if you did ignore this) I thought I did had backup, but I didn't know they'd still be at lhc [b]AFTER[/b] 2x. That's what really made me a one man army. I wouldn't have made this if that weren't the case. Oh yeah and for the 2nd time, My point is [i]why do ksers ks when they get nothing from it?[/i] NOT "why was I ksed in mp3?" because I already know the answer to that. Pay attention to my point not the story please; the story was just a reason why I asked this question. I KNOW why I got ksed okay? jeez...
simple solution: join a guild start a ks war ^.^ lol
ot: its cause theyre too ignorant to give up? =o
Sharing is caring? D:
to gain rep as an EThug Duh
[quote=ShoppingBag]Like I said before, don't talk to them (be it general chatter, whining, making threats or insult them). Most ksers are silent (if solo), or chat amongst themselves (if in a party), and will generally not initiate conversations with you. There exist, of course, a small minority of ksers who do ks for fun and like hearing whines, threats and complaints, and will ks just to invoke those from their victims, thus they may even say "cc plz" just to get a reaction out of you. These are even easier to chase out of a map - just remain silent and keep training and ignore them.
So just to reiterate, there is no better strategy to rid your map of ksers if you just stay silent, keep training and ks them back (if they ks for exp), or keep training and ignore them (if they ks to provoke response). In both cases the ksers will eventually leave by their own accord.[/quote]
I was silent toward the end but they still kept on with the insults
@ymmot: My point is "why do ksers ks even though they don't get much from it?" not "why did they ks me at mp3?" Read man ._.
[quote=ymmot]2x or not it is still a popular map and the principal still stands.[/quote]
....Say that the first time jeez....
And I tried standing my ground but my bl/guildies were still in lhc and stuff so yeah it was kind of a one man army. You think I don't know the principles? I said specifically that that's not the first time I've been ksed.
[quote=ymmot]you literally said it in your last post[/quote]
I was only in mp3 from 9:10 (10 mins after 2x) until the sc itself. (EST)
[quote=ymmot]no where did i say that i would cc from a kser. why would you train at such a popular map on 2x if you couldnt defend yourself? survival of the fittest[/quote]
Where did I say it was 2x?
@FallOfMan: wait nvm when I replied to you lol I thought you ment something else.
@ShoppingBag: I did not insult them once. I continuously asked why are they here and said it's easier to ks another map. I mean honestly, they insulted my pretty hard even though I did not say the slightest word of an insult back. It was mean (that's what I meant by "being superior" )
This is why I avoid any of the popular training spots now. Rather get less xp in peace, than less xp while fighting for a map.
[quote=FallOfMan]To prove you're superior than some person over the internet because it's the cool thing to do.[/quote]
If it's one person then okay w.e this TS wouldn't exist, but imagine getting insulted by more than one person back to back. You'd say "eh ignore em." but it's harder [for me] than it looks.
To get a ch for fun and then leave after 2mins because the kser figures out that it's not fun without anyone trying to fight back
and also To be an A**Hole
Cuz its fun for them.
The point of KSing is :
1. To get EXP.
2. At LHC, to get a map.
3. As I like to do, be a jerk.
[quote=DrY3sMan]The person who ksed me was a 109 UA pirate so yeah...[/quote]
Yeah, sharks is really hard to avoid.. ._. i'm level 108. MP3 isnt very good at my level though; barely get 2k exp. Not sure why he would be there.
To make babies
[quote=lilxaznxgirlz]Honestly, i get pissed when people KS me. So its normal for me to KS them back, especially because i shouldnt even be training at mp3 at my level Hey, they try to KS me when its my channel i follow them & KS them <3[/quote]

LOL when ppl try ksing me they die because of trying to type lame comebacks CLASSIC!
[quote=ymmot]jesus when will people learn that ksers are always going to be a part of an mmo community, get use to it and stop complaining. if its just as easy to cc and find another map you can do the same.[/quote]
People should try their best to eradicate such corruption. Changing channels to run from ksers undermines the notion of justice.
[quote=luckysirca5]Whats the purpose of ranting?[/quote]
To see if other people share your view, or something similar to it.
[quote=Turakii]To let your feelings out. [/quote]
Thank you
It's their "fun" and they're too lazy to move their fingers to change channels.
I'm highly against ksing and to me, it's a battle of the wits. I can easily go on any other one of my characters and ks them back, but it would be a waste of my time. I just hold on to my map (yes, my map, I was there first) and continue getting my exp. Most of the time, I'm good enough to take the majority of their exp. EXP depleting is a good method to use (kill off more than 50% of the monster's hp, run to the next mob and repeat).
I don't understand why people ks either.
Well, they can never find true love in their lives
So they find love in ksing others
I take a psychological approach: they can't do something like that in real life so they take it out in a game, showing how pathetic those people are.
I also voice this opinion whenever faced with ksers in order to piss them off enough to leave.

Well, I don't roll that way. I actually know how to fend them off but people were still at lhc because of x2 so I couldn't really do that. Anyway, it's mp3, why don't you try flipping through channels and finding one right after x2.
some kids think they have big virtual cohones
It's because they realize it's the best action they'll ever have involving something other than their own hand. xD
Edit: And because they have bad parents who don't give them enough attention. Yeah suckers, tell your parents get on my level! xD
Edit2: And people are PM'ing me because of their anger at this post. Really? You jokes. xD
the point of ksing is for underdeveloped idiots who enjoy ruining the game for others to have fun
