What's with all the ganking??

Gankers kill level 55's too and for the most part it's only two more buttons pushed on non geared 55's than it is for lowbies.

They put a new title in the game and I think the op's problem. Just takes one person to lock down a lowbie area out of the thousands of subs and that person is reporting one incident. Lets face it, this is not very common on most servers, op just needed to vent.

Section x is the place to farm kills, constant flow, easy to find victims and there's almost never a lull.

Red = Dead

The only person who isn't reading is you. You know that PvP tag on the server you joined?

Yeah.... suck it up or you can go join join a PvE server with the rest of the Trammel lovers

yawn

you sound bitter and angsty

all player vs player fighting is pvp. get over it.

the only reason i gank at time is because im bored, and i know it makes people like you whip into a foamy rage. it has nothing to do with thinking im good, or outplaying you. i use your tears as nourishment. if they dont seem like they care then there would truly be no point.

furthermore, ganking is a way to protect people in your faction as they quest.

Newbee is making quests on Tatooine.
- KABOOM!!! *100500 damage from grenade*
-Damn!!! WHY ARE YOU KILL ME???!!!!!
-*55 level commando* Hey))) Im just saying "welcome to our PVP server"

In Russia, we have a little PVP-mem.
"If you like PVP - you should also love to watch at your corpse" (yeah, in russian it sounds better)

Actually it is. The rule set is explained clearly during server selection. Truth be told, the level of and occurrences of ganking and the general level of pvp outside of warzones is amongst the most carebear I've seen in any MMO.

That said, ganking is poor form and a symptom of an immature personality.

We have a Russian named Baldie in our guild, she's an insomniac PvP killer. Baldie loves giggling while stabbing your stunned toon in the back. She bathes in the blood of those who challenge her.

No one unwillingly joins a PvP Server. And it is automatic consent. When I rolled on a Jung Ma, this is exactly what I knew could and likely would happen.

When I was a young chap on Tatooine, I lived in Begeren Colony where we like to roleplay and fight NPCs in peace. Everything changed when the Sith attacked. They came in hordes, Level 55s of all sorts, slaughtering our guards. I drew my lightsaber, but they were upon me. Everything killed. I found myself at a medcenter and rested my wounds, but the Sith came and continually drove their lightsabers through me. "Stop!" I yelled, but the Sith smiled wickedly and said "Die noob C:" My clothes were in tatters and it cost a fortune to get everything fixed.

Okay thats just a theatrical way of putting it. Ganking is a problem, but only really on PVE and RP-PvE servers. On PvP servers you don't have too much of an excuse. There should be a restriction to who you can kill while not engaged in a warzone. Maybe only being allowed to kill players 5 levels below or above you. Or PvP flags should always be manual on non PvP servers. High level players seem to abuse the automatic PvP flagging.

LOL, nah, not really. The other game I play is nothing but pvp, and there I enjoy it, to a limited extent. Here and other games, not so much. I don't whip into a foamy rage, I just shrug, shake my head and say 'what a fail, that he has to kill noobs' and move on. Like I said, I played on Freedom Nadd for 6 mths (well it wasn't called Freedom Nadd, I forget what it was before..Lord Calypho or something like that. I had three characters to 50 and adequately geared (50 was max then) and decided to join my hubby on the PVE server.

Playing on the PVE server solved a few issues for me...Lord Calypho (Freedom Nadd) is a Euro server, and I'm from Canada. I played on the Euro server so I could hang out with my friend, but the lag was really bad for me there, and I was constantly getting dc's in the warzones...

Basically I felt it best to move to the PVE, because I like to do both, and I like to do my PVE without having the stress of looking over my shoulder all the time. I like that I can get up and answer the phone, or let my dog out without returning to a dead body. And when I feel like pvp, I can do a WZ w/o DC. No foamy rage here, I still stand by the idea that gankers are no skill losers...sorry if you are one, lol
