Weellll, I am torn by this.
One one hand, people need to grow a hide and dont take *** so seriously. You play a game where there is PvP. You're going to have people gang up on you. You're going to have people t-bag you. You're going to have people talk trash. THIS IS THE INTERNET, YOU MAY SEE SOMETHING THAT OFFENDS YOU.
On the other, people need to stop being such toxic ***.
At the end of the day, its a game. If you're not having fun, go find something else that gives you joy. If you do have fun, then cudos and carry on.

Constructive tips would be appreciated ~ ^_^
Not trying to pull you out of a campaign that needs players, but with 810cp your healer would do great in Kaal at low levels.
One of the issues with Mula/Kyne is players cried about "rerollers" and told them to leave or called them sissy for not playing in vet campaigns. This campaign did not need players to leave, it needed players to stay.

Thank you @Stridig , I'll take it from here. First of all, the toxic people in this game are the ones who take things too seriously. If you have to attempt a show of dominance on the internet you are a weak and unsuccessful person. Secondly, I was never offended a single time. I dont get offended by people who are toxic. I feel sorry for them. I picture dudes who live with their girlfriend while she is out cheating on them because they are too busy t-bagging folks in a game. People needing thicker skin is a great solution for adults acting poorly. Maybe I'll try it.

Nothing shows how unoffended you are like writing a paragraph attacking the people who didn't offend you and saying how unoffended you are XD I'm enjoying this I hope it continues.
TLDR: Sounds like someone died in a pvp zone

Well.... let me tell you all a little story. For a couple years I had a friend who would come over just to hang out and watch me PvP. I finally talked him in to buying the game. He pretty much already knew who all the main players in the campaign were, and how the game worked. After a couple weeks of training he joined the campaign.
One day I was watching him play and he was wrecking (repeatedly) many of these long term players. They would come back with two people, and more yet when 2 wasn't enough. I was shocked when I watched a group of 6 people from my own guild repeatedly group up on him, kill him and t-bag him. Then the trash talk started and persisted to the point of harassment. @Itsnotarealwar finally left the game after only a few months when the trash talk came to the forums. Was he "crying" as Emily says? No. He was calling them out for their crap behavior. He got really good really fast. But the toxic environment in non vet perpetrated by people we all know and play with, was too much for a new person. The very much needed population you speak of is the very reason many new people dont stay.
There was 1 DC player that @Itsnotarealwar spoke very highly of. @gabriebe. He fought gave 1v1 a couple times and always talked about how nice Gabe was and if only everybody could be that kind, the game would be so much better.
People in this campaign knew when they were fighting a new person. A person with a new name. I fully support him in the forum posts he made. He was speaking truth. All those "Sissy" re-rollers (myself included) lost out on a very cool member of the community. Well played guys.
So you can't stealth out of doors now. Does anyone know if this is intended or a bug?
I guess it kind of makes sense. Hard to open a door without anyone seeing it.
Also, I kind of enjoy occasional salty whispers but when it becomes constant it is harassment which is illegal IRL and should also be in game.
Thanks for all the praise, but I'm definitely not immune to not being an *** lol
OMG what happened to the men that used to have ***. ?
