Hello,
first i must say hi to everyone, especially my old friends from The Rollerrats. hope you all are doing good in your new guild/alliance.
now to the not-so-pleasant...
i had a report last night about Forsakens killstealing a golem in the Adonis Abyss. there was obviously a deal going on between a few guilds about looting these big thingies. im not sure if Cerberus was a part of this though, but i know you were at golems last night.
heres the deal ... Forsaken is not a "we-walk-in-and-take-all-the-loot" kind of guild. so i would very much appretiate it if those who feel bad about what happened (yes we did kill 1 golem) contacts me. apparently it was Nocturnal Fear, Cerberus, Mockers and AIL who were there having the spawn and the deal ?
we do not feel that killing 1 golem out of 12 (these mobs are spawned every half hour by 100s of players per day) is a big deal. and im not sure this is a big deal to anyone either, but when im contacted about KSing (which is a serious matter) i have to clean up the mess.
for the record, we did not run in and start blasting away. all who were there had plenty of time to stop us and say "hey, mind waiting for the next spawn?" and such. they were all quiet and we spent a long time outside the entrance before going in.
so if anyone knows anyone who were present at golems last night when this happened, tell them to contact me please. and if it turns out we acted like assholes, i will see to that this matter is settled fair and square. i didnt make notes of the names who were there, so im a bit stuck about making contact myself.
i hope this wont cause any hostility between us, and if we pissed in somebody's pool we apologize.

I wasnt there, dunno what those golems are and prolly never will. But knowing the Forsaken boys, I am pretty sure that they didnt KS. The core members of Forsaken are some of the finest people here on RK, and I am proud to call them my friends.

... good morning Sel, old friend
The Dust Golems are probably the worst scenario created by Funcom (so far - im expecting more
). you walk all the way to the bottom of a dungeon, kill 1 boss to spawn 12 (!) Dust Golems (on top of each other i might add) by the entrance (!!) to the dungeon.
this is causing alot of chaos and mayhem, since all of us need to be in this dungeon doing golems to get 3 items to hand to an NPC to tag an NPC to find 5 items to..... etc etc
... so shit happens, like last night, when a golem gets wacked by the "wrong" team.

Sad to hear Lindbeck, I know you were helping us when I was there with Foxferal, Cogs, Warcrime and Madspin, so I don't see how that could be considered a KS. :'(
(of course I only lasted about 30 secs but that is another, embrassing, story
)

I think the incident Lindbeck refers to happened before you and I arrived at the scene, Rahmorak. Nevertheless, I dont think this can have been a real big deal.....so Im sure its easily forgotten. Both the Mockers and Cerberus are an easy going bunch, but as you say yourself that scenario down there is probably the worst frustration creator FC has made to date.
I know we had spent a lonjg time spawning those 12 golems, I died 3 times...1 from the golems, and twice trying to get back there...so I just gave up. AIL had nothing to do with that spawn......
No, we were initially working with Nocturnal Fear, and an Omni doc.....we got a bad pull, that killed many of us......me included, then I died twice more from parasites and a shark....I got pissed and left...which is prolly when you guys arrived at the scene...AIL had prolly been tipped of by someone....and there you go........
FC needs to make this as well a dynamic dungeon, where you as a team spawn your own cave. Thats the only way this will ever work.....as it is now, its just screwed up.......totally fubar!!
No hard feelings, Lindbeck.....that place just pulls out the demon in most ppl, methinks!

Ail got there later thats correct.
We went there before when the omni doc was inside and the golems wouldnt spawn.
So we continued off to kill sharks and then return.
noone "tipped" us about anything Cogs,we had ment to come back and so when we had done the sharks we returned.but at that time The golems had spawned,and i asked you and the rest of the crew if u wanted AIL to wait for next spawn or join in on the killing.
This area is FFA according to raidleaders,but it was youre spawn so i asked you of kindness,tho my team wanted to just kill.
If Cerberus or Mockers had something against us showing up,a Simple answer to my question to wait would have done it.we would not have interfered and just waited to spawn them ourself.

we all agree that FC has made an hell of a place for us down there. its chaos, its mayhem and its causing frustration. pull golems as quick as you can before anyone else does
we all seem to be aware of the situation at golems, so case closed and happy camping to y'all.
like you said Cogs... places like that brings out the worst in people.

Oops...sorry Auro, that got off a little wrong. What I meant was to illustrate the chaos that place is..sorry for my bad choice of words...bah, Im a clutz sometimes. No harm intended...I wasnt even present when these things went down, so........anyway, whatever.......if all we get out of these places is frustration, bad feelings, and what have you; Im just gonna stay away.....no fun in this at all....
btw, Auro..I was killed by one of the sharks you had angered down there..on my way back to the place, lol..

i remember considering it FCs fault when i was in the grid for the first time (at lvl 42
) and backed into Omni-1 and lost 400k XP ...
i guess i was wrong then, but this time im 100% sure im right ...
FC has created alot of places for KSing, bad behaviour and aggression in SL. but then again, that's part of it all... its all part of the wonderful world of MMORPGing. it's like real life ... some people are bad - some are not, and in certain situations we all turn bad

Hi there Lindbeck! Dunno if you remember me, as I don't even remember which char I was playing when I teamed with you (could have been Smacdevil, Hitmaker or Bothead), but still, good to hear you're alive and kicking
KS'ing sucks, so I'm very glad this wasnt the case here (apparently) hehe
Guess I'll see you ingame sometime if I ever get my NT up to Adonis lvls soon... Ofdarkness is the name. Ciao ciao

oh yes i remember you. not sure what char, but i think it's Smacdevil...

yes it does. the problem is that FC has made it "legal" by setting up the gameplay. KSing Omnis is a good thing, but when you "have to" KS other clanners it gets nasty.
hang in there Smacdevil. only the most hardcore of us will survive these first months of Shadowlands im afraid

Well even if you are not KSing the Omni will petition and next thing you know an ARK shows up and tells you to play nice nice....Even in Clan territory.
Sorry little vent there from past frustrations. Maybe I will wait some to go further exploring in SL as I do not like areas that cause this kind of frustration.
