Haha I must've really touched a nerve yesterday I guess :D

RvR & PvP are not the same, silly boy :p
At least, they're not for me.
Even if RvR ended up getting turned into PvP in DAoC it wasn't ALWAYS that way. At the beginning we had this thing called the realm war, but the CS-Kiddies didn't like it so it got changed into a PvP free-for-all, which was apparently (& unfortunately IMO) what the majority seemed to want.

No it's just fun crushing your hypocritical and weak arguments :p

RvR is just a term invented by Mythic to make it sound like it involved more than just players fighting each other. The original idea was that realm guards would be something that bolted on strongly to player vs. player combat to produce something that was more than just plain old PvP.

PvP essentially just describes the fact that players fighting players is involved, it's therefore a much more broad term, you could say that RvR is a subset of PvP under Mythic's original vision much like game types in other games such as Capture the Flag and so forth would be seen as a subset of the overall idea of PvP.

It sounds more like what you mean to say is that you only like some PvP - i.e. the RvR subset then is that correct? Do you also feel that somehow RvR doesn't contain the childishness and immaturity that you claim PvP does (ignoring the idea that it is just a subset of PvP of course!).

No what I mean to say is I never liked non-RvR-PvP, and now I've grown out of RvR-PvP too :)

Your arguments (& flames!) used to be much better you know. You seem to be losing your touch a bit with age :D

You make it sound like all I achieved was my own death, you have to give me credit, I managed to whipe out the rest of the group and sometimes even a few more other players too :p

the thing I look back and laugh at the most, was that guy that kept standing at APK yelling for money or he would pull the guards :)

and one night when people were dueling at AMG (was standing close by stealthed on my hunter) and pop! couple of APK mages spawned on the MG and killed them all

and ofc, when we were running 8man group in Odin's and Kemor started emoting us with the giant standing there
Woho! I got a 360 \o/
