Linkshell Etiquette/Civility

[The Blackrose]

Yeah, pretty sure AS is from Ramuh, and yeah, between Carby shells being civil about it and not having to rush to get into zones, and them using the calendar to schedule zone ganks, it's working great.

Not necessarily. The JP shells don't like to play nice.

They've made quite a name for themselves, it's funny when the lolshells on your server suddenly look respectable and upstanding because of a bunch of immigrant bastardcunts.

Couple of nice folks, even talked to a couple of them, but the whole "Fuck everyone else, we don't need to worry about burning bridges if we learn how to swim" attitude is going over great.

They were actually from a decent shell, we generally refer to them as 'the good players' of the shell they left that's still here. Not to defend them because some of them I personally couldn't stand, but using things like the calendar has just never been commonplace here, so not like they got that standard out of nowhere.

But yeah even the JP's will ninja you, back when I was in a shell that ran on Friday nights a specific JP shell would just absolutely blindside you and hold Xarc with 2 people for 15 minutes. I personally wouldn't waste precious farming time in a zone like that, but we also only take 16-18 in.

True, but they're usually avoidable because of the time differences, GR being the biggest dicks I've seen, and I especially dislike them because of hoarding ixion tails...

I just want mah gaitorz/speedshooz. T.T

Hell, TBR can vouch for AS being douchebags better than I can, as I'm sure anything that FS has had even briefly turn yellow has at least been attempted to be ganked by AS.

Myself it's just minor things like dyna gankings, merits, and constantly hearing about them doing this and that.

lol just yesterday i got wind of something that happened @ charby apparently a shell was camping it for their ls members and then another shell came and grid locked the shell that was originally there when they got claim... seriously wtf? There was so much lag they wiped. The second shell that appeared kept doing bar spells and surrounding the tank. When the GM came (yes they called a GM) they just said they were buffing up in case the first shell wiped.

It's CHARBY it's not even something that drops something super rare like v.belt or something~

If you wipe, we will make fun of you. If you suck, we will make fun of you. If your monster goes unclaimed, we will take it. If you get darters, expect a diaga. If you go afk on the cliff, expect spiders.

That's pretty much Cerberus.

I think Endgame speaking things just kinda get uncivilized due to botting/cheating.

A linkshell who claims a lot start to develop a "Better than" attitude over other linkshells because they are getting all this gear/claims for their members. A linkshell who claim less develop a dislike for a ls and begins to whine/complain because they think they are cheaters (sometimes is justified/unjustified).

In the end linkshells end up disliking eachother because they are competitive and each linkshell is trying to accommodate their members goals. I think if claim % was spread more evenly between the linkshells, things would probably be more civilized. But Land HNM wise I think this is most likely a pipe dream on most servers.

Fortunately there is alot of things to do in this game such as Salvage, Einherger, Limbus, Dynamis, ZNM, etc etc that linkshells can keep busy and not worry bout the uncivilized competitiveness between shells if they choose not too.
