(rolls my eyes)
The main reason I have you on ignore is we disagree 99.99% of the time. You and I just don't mix at all.

What i said was so mean wasn't it?
- tell Stridig I said Hi
- Pat him on the head
- Collar Strigid and pull him around on your mount

The last 2 comments were just following Swaye's RP session she was having with you. I think you maybe confused on a little chat fun and trash talking, because I definitely was not trash talking.

I actually went back to Shor right after the little "RP" session. I can't hardly go to Kyne without getting harassed by one of you idiots. All you do is trash talk and then play innocent. I kinda get a kick out of it tbh.

Name those guilds, they dont exist. The guilds AD had, moved to EP and DC. Thats not the point anyway lol. You organized pug stomping guilds shouldnt even be there anymore. Its about the new players.

Ya know, this event is meant to bring new players to pvp and show them how fun it is with the hopes that they will stay and grow our community. Roll an AD toon and witness for yourselves just how fun you have made it for them.

This. Things have been pretty *** for AD these last several days in particular. EP gets the short end of the stick here and there too, but at least we’ve been able to get several good pushes, typically towards the evening. The rest of the time though from what I’ve seen throughout this event, it’s just giant DC groups stomping on whatever resistance the other factions are able to muster.

gabriebe · July 2018

Not really.

AA is still around. So is ADSS, and so is GaelicMoon's guild, at least as of last week. Remember when the map was yellow every morning? Cause we do. They didn't magically flip to EP or DC, although telling yourselves may make you feel better. In fact DC has lost quite a bit of the more experienced players we had acquired when times were dry as we got more dominant lately.

And the people who are stomping you lately are basically pug groups led by newer players we spent some time investing in. Your spiel about welcoming new players? Well we geared em out, got other experienced players to help them improve their overall skills and showed them a little bit how to lead over the last few months. I suggest you guys do the same, because boy is it paying off right now.

Valen_Byte · July 2018

Ffs, you just dont understand much of anything gabe. I dont run in Kyne other than to help out here and there. When I do, Im solo and answer questions in zone and suggest objectives to hit while trying to keep the moral up. Its a lost cause. My Home camp is vivec on all my toons and has been for a long time. You want to pretend that the *** IOTE did over 2 years ago is a good excuse to bring 50 dc to every fight no matter how small the attacking force is, fine. Ill never understand why so many are so shortsighted that you cant give the slightest of a *** about players that arent on your own faction. Its not good for your crappy campaign and its not good for pvp in general. But, you only see what you want to see. Your campaign is a joke. AA is not any help to ad and you all know it. ADSS is not a thing. GM is not a thing either. AA is the only consistent guild and you all know they are not any help to AD in general. Im not coming back to lead. There have been plenty of new players start up groups but when they take the small group they have put together to an objective, they get rolled over 5-10:1. When the map isnt blue from the morning pvdoor emp run, its purple. New players arent having any fun and are not staying past a push or two. But thats how you like it I suppose so that you can think you are amazing at leading and teaching. You are just stomping out competition before it can even start. Everything I have said is in the context of the event. The event that should bring in new players and new competition so that everyone, not just gabe, can have a good time.

gabriebe · July 2018

I'm talking about the yellow map we had pretty much every day from like.. what, November to April-ish this year? For a guy who claims I don't understand anything, you might want to update your info. I wasn't even playing the game when IOTE ran in Kyne lol.

There you go, fix your guilds. Or make a new one from the good scraps of the old ones. AA alone has more people in their guild roster than all the DC guilds rosters combined.

We came to the event prepared. Not my fault that you guys came empty-handed. And FWIW the pop around primetime has been pretty even. We even emped last week in primetime, with everyone at pop lock during the event. We got the new players involved, this week and before that, and it paid off. You (AD in general) can do that too.

Maybe.

Itsnotarealwar · July 2018

Well shoot. I was planning on visiting ESO again during this event in an attempt to finally get a character to level 50. But it sounds like it's the same as when I left. "Veteran" DC teams who like to grief, tbag, and then trash talk new players. That was my experience here for over a month. Doesn't seem like much has changed.

Just like every faction, to be fair. Don't let that discourage you, there are some good people in this game. Those who aren't, there is ignore list for em.

Did you see the comment I made to Swaye, "Put Stridig on a leash and drag him around on your mount".

Hey, don't judge my lifestyle!

This may not work for everyone, but you can always use those negative players as inspiration to keep improving at the game. It worked for me, at least to a degree, as stuff like that would always get me fired up and make me want to try and get better so that I could someday kill those players and /shovel over their bodies. It's unfortunate that that kind of negativity even exists in Kyne in the first place, but if it's there, you may as well try to take advantage of it the best you can.

MajBludd · July 2018

@gabriebe I got a 138k d tick at Farr. This past morning. Saw another group of ep get around 156k d tick at a chal

MajBludd · July 2018

@Valen_Byte I'll roll over at AD. Why not

gabriebe · July 2018

It isn't surprising. As I said, AD and EP could try harder than they are now. Don't know how many mornings I logged on and the map was yellow, and we wiped at basically every keep against double our numbers swimming in siege. We didn't have enough AP to buy siege anymore.Things got better over time because we kept trying and each morning got a little better. Yeah, we whined about it but at least we tried. I mean you were there, when basically every morning was like 'Urg, ok, type x for group, let's see if we can fix that ***'. Right now neither AD or EP are seriously trying, so whenever they do get a victory their AP gain will be insane. Not that long ago DC had these rolling 30-40k dticks when fighting the AD morning zergs.

The whole “ad and ep aren’t trying enough” thing is bull. Over the last few days alone I’ve been part of several groups in both faction that tried like hell to do basically anything and usually failed until we were able to get higher pop later in the day simply because DC always mustered way more people than us. Earlier today, for instance, AD barely had any pop and our small group of 3 was forced to just farm resources at Alessia and Roe. DC then proceeded to send a group of 10-ish to roll over us again.

And besides, a lot of EP and AD probably don’t even want to try since we all know that DC will have just capped the whole inner ring (at least) by early morning again every day. I don’t know if there’s a group of DC that re-cap everything overnight, but it’s always a blue map when I log in in the morning.

gabriebe · July 2018

Mystery solved this morning as to where our AD gaelic friends disappeared to. They're in Alkosh, PvDooring emp without all that nasty opposition (or at least that may have been their hope). We chose to be consistent during the event and play where we usually play.

I remember many a morning logging in to an entire yellow map with our score zeroed out. I didn't just not try. The 3 other DC on didn't just not try. We sucked it up, started on warden or rayles and clawed and bashed our way out most often being wiped a few times at the temple keeps before even getting to glade. I remember many an evening around 9pm sharp my time when the ad and ep groups would simultaniously hit aleswell and ash regardless of score or emp status. Like Gabe said, yea we whined about it, in game and here on the forums but we just kept at it. Now it's flipped flopped. It will most likely flip flop in another direction sooner rather then later. Then again I pvp just to pvp. I attack players I know are better and are gonna BBQ my lil panzy arse. I jump into the middle of huge groups when I know I have 0 chance of *winning*. I play just to play. So i leave you with this inspirational message.

kringled_1 · July 2018

I've played quite a bit less in Kyne than I otherwise would have this week because DC has had such a strong presence. I've done some vet pvp on a low level AD, and I'm planning on running Bgs tonight. Rolling a different faction in Kyne is not viable for me for social reasons; so far every character I've run in Kyne has been my first experience in a spec (mag /stam and class) in pvp, and I'm keeping most of my Kyne characters for vet pvp over the long haul. I think it is still healthy to have vet players in, especially when they are organizing pug groups, helping new players with skill choices and crafted gear. It's just not nearly as healthy when AD really lacks that kind of presence, and from the outside perspective I don't think AA or Gaelic have been helpful to AD in Kyne.

MajBludd · July 2018

This is hilarious. Play where you want. Don't get bent over pop imbalance and roll on. The tide tends to change in time.

For what it's worth, I agree with most of what @Valen_Byte is saying about new players pvp experience in kyne. On the other hand, I get what DC players are saying.

You can't make ppl play other factions. The biggest fault, imo, lies with the players that jump to the winning side.

Probably a solution to that though

And those are the true "flip floppers". Those are the ones who are making things worse. Not the people who occasionally play a different alliance for the fun of it.

Let's revisit slapping a collar on Stridig. That line of discussion had a better chance of a mutually-agreed-upon resolution.

Raknosh · July 2018

But who wants a mutually-agreed-upon resolution tho? No no no, keep the arguing going! That's way more fun to read!

I have a better idea. All my haters just need to hook a finger through one of my belt loops and let me lead them through a quality of life they only see while watching Beachfront Bargain Hunt while drinking their Zima. Only then will they see the light.

Sign me up.

Full disclosure: I've never had Zima, but I am Zima-curious.

If AD is down in the dumps it’s their own fault. I rolled an AD took a few months ago just to check out the waters there, and grew to regret it. That’s still the only toon I’ve ever deleted. The complete lack of communication, except for the occasional troll or elitist ***, is probably what has led to AD’s current sorry state. Noob players had two choices: run in the AA Zerg with their green and blue dropped gear or spam lfg uselessly in zone. Neither option teaches anything about how to be successful in Cyrodiil. If AD is going to get better, some faction loyalists are going to have to step up and teach the new generation of players how it’s done.

Sreja_Bone · July 2018

Round and round we go...

Valen_Byte · July 2018

All I was talking about is the event thats going on right now, if you could focus for just a split second and try to understand what Im saying.

The overall problems in kyne are not just AD problems. Its a server wide problem. Kyne is a joke in the PvP community as a whole. But that has nothing to do with anything I have said in the past couple of days. Your all just too dam defensive to even try to understand.

Round 17....FIGHT
