    I laugh when I die. I don't rage or hate honestly after I get killed. Sometimes I wait to enemy's leave to see what they do next. But I don't rage nor hate. No fun.

    If you get hate from someone you killed, just respond that you're completely new to the game and just trying it out at a friends house. Tell them you're sorry, and don't really know what you're doing or how to play the game and you didn't mean to kill them by accident.

    Some guy [snip] said "I hope you die in real life" to me after he lost in a duel and got 1vXd later that week. Saved the screenshot.

    Have had plenty of nerd rage, but has anyone had whispers complementing you like i have and have done?

    I have had compliments and respect them for it. I've also had long discussions with them on how to make eachother's build better.

    I have never raged another player but it does amaze me how many people put time and effort into raging others. Its a game. Relax and enjoy it.

    I find the 1vx folks getting the most upset when they try to solo a group and end up loosing badly.
    I think it's funnier when a Zerg tries to kill 1 or 2 people and fails at it then tries to claim your a terrible player when you just killed them and 4 or 5 of their friends one after another.

    Been in both situations, and I enjoy both. Had a player get salty when my four man was holding down a district flag. I enjoy being told how much better of a player someone else is, even though I just spent an hour farming that player.

    ProTip: If you continue to walk into a farm, you're not in a good position to call other players bad.

    My other favorite is the "zerg" griping. I run groups for a PvP guild, but they're not the best. Still, it's often the case that the "1v1 bro" kids start griping about how it's unfair that people in a multiplayer game are daring. To play. With multiple players.

    Look, I hate getting run over by a mass of crabs as much as the next banana, but seriously, if you want a fair 1v1 fight, no one's stopping you from buying a copy of Street Fighter.

    ProTip: If you gripe to me about my 6 man being a zerg because we obliterated your 4-man, I will return with 24. And stay.

    Lol, you need a group to win

    No one kills my Sorc 1v1 (no that's not an open challenge) immediately afterwards...

    I have a rank 9 PvP sorc, which is weak on 1v1, would you share what you have on your skill bars and your rotation?

    Regarding ninja rage tell (rage tell then immediately ignored by initiator), should one presume the other is conceding defeat in the battle of wits arena as well?

    A PvP benchmark for me was when a ninja rage teller of the past took the time to un-ignore me then send another ninja rage tell.

    I do not send rage tells, but I am social enough to have an exchange. Turning insults upside down and inside out is just as sweet as their succulent AP.

    I was wearing light kags magic Templar and sword shield in a group of three in IC wrecked some guy an got whispered that I was a malatard reactive armor wearing trash player. I showed him my armor via link he said if I did not have 10 players zeroing down people he then challenged me to duel him. I jumped on my magic DK smoked him then he accused me of wearing black rose. I showed him it was elf borne. You just can't win. Get your tin foil hats ready I say.

    Why do people actually rage at you in this? Some bruh comes at me, crit rush at my Sorc....loses badly. No one kills my Sorc 1v1 (no that's not an open challenge) immediately afterwards...party invite.. all sorts of abuse from his little friends..all sorts of name calling..apparantly I'm some weird geek playing elder scrolls who likes to pick on kids...this dude was 26 apparantly...seriously is pvp this bad to cause a massive loss of intelligence to some humans. Dude even said if he met me in real life he'd smash my face in lololol. Bruh just couldn't handle the frag.

    Anyone else suffered immense nerd rage in Cyrodiil lately? Please share your experiences in dealing with the enemy alliances.

    I've had some rage myself (warranted), and I have been the target of rage (often). I used to run with a PvP guild, but now I run solo. Since I am a nightblade, I can sneak around zergs pretty easily and grab resources on CP campaigns pretty easily. For the most part I'm limited to defending keeps/outposts and taking out stragglers who are part of 50+ man zergs.

    That (solo-ganking), as well as only using coldfire siege get me the most rage whispers. Everyone seems to have something to say these days, because they don't expect to ever come face to face with the person they are talking to. It all comes down to personal experience, and how people were brought up. For me, if I just blatantly disrespected someone growing up or especially while in the military; someone would have made me eat my teeth. So I don't say anything I wouldn't say to someone face to face. For instance, the worst example of rage I have personally experienced is someone dying pretty much instantly to me. Their response was for threaten to ***/kill me or my family, tell me to kill myself, etc. ZOS chose to give them an official warning. Yet if they were sharing their account or cheating, they would be banned.

    I frequently get upset myself with PvP just because of the state of it. If you aren't experiencing extreme performance issues in cyrodil, then one of the alliances (or more) is running a 100 man zerg. Or both at the same time lol. I have whispered people associated with those zergs just asking if they are seriously proud to be part of those groups. I am seriously curious. A lot of those guys will take a resource or outpost which has 10 people in it, and they run by the dead and tea bag like they achieved some incredible victory. Sorry, maybe I missed something along the way but I honestly couldn't play like that. You get hardly any AP, and you can't really say that you contributed to much of anything yourself. Regardless of what you kcreport says or the color you just turned the map. I literally watch as people within those large zergs spam light attacks (usually a bow-tard). People laugh or say "git gud, u mad" etc (very original by the way). I'm not mad, I'm truly sad. I feel sorry for them. Most of these folks have never won or competed in anything other than a video game in their lives. Not much can be done I supposed. Just let them rage, let them live how they choose. Those same people are living with mom/dad, or some crappy apartment. I'll take out all my anger on the race track, heh. Have fun with video game raging.

    Pvp is serious business.

    Totally staged video for YouTube but I could see it happen with kids . I'd also take that kids PC away for 5 years if true and make him clean horse corrals befor dinner so He understood how tedious dealing with crappies like his temper is .

    Off course it is staged you can see him rocking backward before the swing but it gets the point across.

    No, the kid's reflexes are just soo good, he saw the keyboard smack coming. Probably why he beat the rager in the first place lol.

    I was a BS Temp at the beginning of the DB update. A certain red group kept running into me, all attacking, some dying to my shield, every time though I eventually died. I received a message from a NB in this group telling me that my build was the worst and absolutely useless.

    Week later, same scrub NB is running in the same group but half of them are now on BS Templars with Guard up.

    I am a little bit depressed reading this.

    One of my characters is complete salt inducing cancer build on purpose and no hate tells yet. All I get is "damn you're hard to kill." "good fight" "how do I survive like that?", etc.

    /sigh

    (edit because forgot to add: I also get smacked down hard a lot, so there are obviously chemo builds to counter the cancer. /trololo dot gif)

    It depends on the kind of cancer you're running. Viper/Veli and you're good to go, no one complains. Put on Malubeth (which doesn't kill anyone) and it will come eventually.

    Holy crap, we could be twins. My magplar is 5 Kags (4 on the resto bar), 5 VD, 2 Malubeth and lots of beams. Also DC armor motif...it's a good look.
    The hate has dropped off recently for the Malubeth, but the RD still gets some anger from dodge roll fans.

    Edit: Also, not hiding it since they don't hide their little green balls of cheese armor procs.

    I usually don't reply at all. Stay silent and laugh.

    I had one guy I killed go on a rant for five pages. Name calling. 1v1 challenges. Saying I was too scared to reply. The first page was funny. The rest were just hilarious fodder after getting posted to teamspeak so my guildmates could enjoy it too.

    I've recently started playing a destro/resto magic nightblade, and I've never received this much rage. It amazes me that arguably the worst pvp class results in massive amounts of rage tells and bags.

    Last night, I was watching a guild member duel in the arena district (we're Xbox NA), and I was ganked by a stam blade. I came back and proceeded to kill him 4 times in a row. The raging ensued after kill #2. >:)

    OK I just raged at someone in pve. Hard. That minotaur boss. I put a message out to a level 10. Leave 1 add alive. It stops any other waves spawning in. Nope the 2h sorc just stands there spamming endless fury (ironic) and kills them again and again...why grief people trying to achieve the same goal easier. Proper noobs about. He deserved it though. He kept dying and didn't have any soul gems and has been camping the doorway waiting for others to come along and do the job for him all day long.

    I've been called coward, for trying to hide and recover resources ( was trying new gear and was having sustain issues), by Mighty GM and then received good old fashioned t baging after he killed me. Was called awful by certain Princess, when me and another 5-6 randoms killed him, was accused of zerging by one of EP faction guild leaders, though these days 98% I run solo. Get lots of hate tells also from people who think I am Publius, since one of my chars have same last name. It's fun. Love it.

    lol well show's he'd though about the character and set it up correctly, person to ask question of not hammer with abuse lol
    i'd of ask first time round "how the hell did you do that" and ask for pointer...... next time you know how to react to that defence/attack.
    does take some thinking prior,
    to have it ready, so yep a learned skill .... bit like RTFM with new kit.
