You're looking for solutions to a problem that doesn't exist.

A. Pk will always exist and there are players assuming their red karma anyway.

B. You can't avoid karma bomb players since they can't be listed or marked. Not manageable.

C. Gear degradation is a consequence for creating an hostile interraction. Of course there should be. And it came after most players asked for sanctions for pkers.

D. Karma system is also a consequence for creating an hostile interraction. Of course there should be! And it came after most players asked for sanctions for pkers.

What you're trying to do here is not to "find a solution", but you're trying to "find a solution for pkers."

The same way lifeskillers and pve players asked for lifeskill or pve servers and pkers complained.

Each side made their points. Nobody will agree. There's no solution because there's no real problem. It's in your head (not you especially but everyone's still trying to debate on something we'll never agree with).


So pretty much the game is doomed in the long run. Sigh...  well... I tried and I am tired as heck! This game is slowly moving forward like the titanic sinking. Thank you PK (toxic ones). Thank you. You ruined PVX.

From this point forward, I am going to keep playing BDO. It's because I am playing with my friends. They are the ones which kept me going. It's a great game. I am going to tell my friends at some point and try to find another game where we can play and enjoy - smile - put our feets up after coming home from work.

At least, I tried...

Nope. People who dislike forced pvp dislike this kind of answer. See the difference?

Too bad for you, I never complained about karmabombing/bodythrow alone. I always managed to make this kind of people leave with a subtle mix of CC/PK/Mob feeding. I even go red sometimes, but that's intended and I'm ok with the consequences.

I just think that as long as it exists, mob feeding will exist too, so we need to get rid of both at the same time to come back to an healthier system. 

But go on, lie about me, it won't make you right.

Cute, but wrong. Do you really think that bodythrowing is only used by the "weak player who was first on the spot and was kicked of the spot through owpvp"? That's naive, it is used by every player who want a spot and know that he can't confront his competitor. You can be undoubtedly first on a spot, you'll sometimes find a guy coming, ksing you and refusing any other interaction with you. 

Bodythrowing exists because some people don't appreciate the intended mechanics and want to use another method to get a spot. And that's quite daring of you to blame us for the existence of bodythrowing. 

PK is intended, the existence of penalties proves it.

Bodythrowing is a side effect, the lack of punishment associated to the death shows a loophole.

Mob feeding is a "side side" effect, still without punishement, the same kind of loophole.

Let's remove the loopholes. In the end, what's left? Yep, pk and its penalties. BDO is this kind of game. 

So, back to square one : No. That's the exact contrary here, and it's intended. Nobody has the right to grind in peace. It's is not even a mocking answer, that's simply a fact, you're not supposed to grind peacefully on BDO!

Bro, you just confirmed what I said lmao.

Also I didn't lie, I made an assumption... that you confirmed lol.

Actually there's no difference so I don't know what you're trying to say there... ofc people who don't like it don't like those answers, there's no need to say something naturally implied... Nevermind.

Nope, there a real difference between our sentences... If people really are adamant against forced pvp, they're more likely to get offended if someone says that it's part of the game, and you perfectly understood what I meant.

So, people don't hate forced pvp because of my kind of answer, they instead hate my kind of answer because they dislike forced pvp.

On that I agree with bodythrowing being part of the game. I hate it and never do it but it's one of the game mechanics. As well as karma bombing.

PKing can give penalties and it's normal, you assume the hostile interraction you create with another player.

The mad thing here is that pkers want to kill without any consequence. Red Karma is BDO's system to limit free killings. Most people complain about free killings. For those who want to cancel Red Karma, it's a NO.

For those who are using the mechanics of the game by throwing into mobs, good for them. I dislike that kind of thing but who am I to say it should be blocked... It rarely happens in my world anyway, so for the ones who encounter this kind of situation often, I don't know how but they must be searching for it.

And yes and no, "you can't grind in peace in this game". What I understood earlier was more like "you can't grind in peace because we want to pk everyone anyway". You can still grind in peace when you avoid conflict by switching or moving. Generally it's enough for most people as it is for me. Yeah, pk is part of the game and I don't blame it. I blame it when it becomes toxic.

You should formulate a bit better your answer sometimes... you mislead with some of your formulations.

Don't forget that, in this discussion, the exact sentence who started this little side discussion is : 

-> Every player has the right to grind in peace.

And my answer was : 

-> No. That's the exact contrary here, and it's intended.

"Has the right", this precise expression means a lot. Has the right? No. Not in BDO, and that's intended.

I can understand that you may have misinterpreted my words, no problem with it, but my formulation sounds pretty accurate, instead.

The context means a lot. You answered to something specific and yes, your answer was misleading. Context, not only your sentence.

But I let you have the last word, no prob. Answer to that. Nevermind and waste of time.

Exactly, we can let others check the context and words and see by themselves. For me, I was pretty accurate, and for you, I wasn't. It doesn't really matter.

Petty trick. You're not fooling anyone.

Simple fix is something I have said since starting this game

Make some servers PvE only, no putting on your PvP flag and standing in someones AoE attacks.

PvP by invite only by challenging to a duel which has to be accepted.

Funny because in each mmo pk is not welcome and is severely punished, and each mmo has modes and channels dedicated to pk where it belongs. 

Which of the largest and most popular mmo on the market have open pvp? Oh yeah, none of them.

I don't believe that what BDO currently has can be accurately described as "Open" PvP, and PvP without restrictions of any kind is not what I'd like to see implemented anyway. Like I said, I just feel that some of the current restrictions are a bit too punitive and don't make any sense. I think that some changes could be made pretty easily that would make the more PvP oriented players and players that occassionally like to engage with OWPVP happier, without further alienating pure PvE players.

Go on and strawman me more though, if you must.
