STS World PVP - Hoth - Accounts threatened by GM

Srsly... reading comprehension fail alert.

Where they were PvPing was not the respawn point.

It may not be nice, but is is considered fairplay in most MMORPGs (unless someone is camping a respawn point - which isn't the case here).

It's quite important as much OPvP in games without RvR zones is kicked off by a guild going looking for trouble (and ganking inevitably becomes some part of this).

That's just life on a PvP server.

If SWTOR is different they need to clearly state that.

The respawn is OUTSIDE the base. How about you go over there and see how its set up before you make your claims....Thanks though it was good effort to derail it for the 3rd time with the same claim.

Nice doesn't have anything to do with it if it's behavior that's deemed disruptive. And I've spent years of my life playing on pvp servers in various games. Ganking lowbies where absolutely no level 50's are going to hang out does not inevitably become a part of it unless you simply enjoy griefing lowbies. You could have hit up Belsavis, Illum, and Corelia daily areas (which you ultimately did after getting tossed out) if you were looking for 50's. You weren't. As an aside, I've played games where killing people was acceptable, camping them at all was not. They had to be given an opportunity to leave the area without further killing them. If they chose to stay they would become a target again. I've also played games where it was accepted. Different companies have different policies. You were told to leave. You left. Asking why is reasonable. But the TOS is intentionally vague. Behavior that they don't want people engaging in, or they feel is excessive, they have a right to put a stop to.

Ah so the truth comes out. The GM was 100% right. You cannot take over the base then camp the respawn.

Errm so you musta skipped the part where it said they re-grouped and ran back to the base... where is that camping the base.. cos i am sure if I was camping it I would re-group and run back to it... I would stay there and wait ... and where does it state that they camped a respawn area, where doed it state they camped a respawning chest etc etc... they regrouped and run back to the base... there you get that finally ...
But for those sitting on the fence, that could be walking, running or maybe they never really left... without those facts and a statement from above.. its all just heresay with only one side prepared to put it out there for us...

Just because its a pvp server doesnt allow you to grief other players and call it pvp.

They already posted you cannot sit and camp the base.
