Misunderstood rules or just plain ignorance?

Here is something that happened to me today, I won't give any names.

Well, here goes, I was practicing my saber combos in the courtyard and then suddenly, I was disintegrated by someone's disruptor. Afterwards, I asked him why he did it and he said
" You had saber up". I told him that you can not harm or kill anyone that has not agreed to fight. He protested against it and said that he can attack if they are unarmed, regardless of agreeing upon the fighting. After a while, I saw the same person mindtricking + sniping other people who were dueling ff. A fight broke out and then he slipped away by mind tricking and hiding into a bush. Later, I was practicing my combos and then suddenly I was being kicked by a invisible assailant. I managed to survive, and then I looked behind me and saw the perpatrator readying his snipe rifle to gun down a person who was ff dueling. I went in front of him and grabbed his sniper rifle, the result was me being blown to bits by his golan arms. Luckily I got a demo of everything and I am not sure whether to send it it Silent Whisper. I would like your feedback on this, sorry for any typos.

That's right, you guys kiss and make up y'here?

j/k;)

Seriously, it's none of my business but I just wanted to say it would be great if all misunderstandings could be dealt with in a mature fashion such as this.

Hey Braxiss, maybe you should change the title of your post to "Model Student Talkback".;)

Sorry, couldn't resist:D.

Gosh, now I feel really bad.

I DO forgive you Brax and I want to be friends. I don’t mind a good joke. I think that was the first time we met and I just didn’t know how to take it. I’m sorry I blew that out of proportion. Let’s have an amhug:D

Honestly please don’t feel bad any more. It’s all water under the bridge.

I'm really sorry about what happened, I don't know what came over me. I would understand if you didn't forgive me. I usually joke with my friends in RL, but it seems that most people I have fun with in JA don't seem to take it as a joke. I thought over this for a while and decided if I should change my name, but I decided not to because that would just be running away from my problems. Right now, I am trying to be my best in the Jedi Academy, but real life is really stressing me out, and this is my only way to forget those problems. Sorry about that, I hope it will never happen again.

Oh I think you're right to be a little ticked and everything Ioshee, and Braxiss should be talked to about this. Not necessarily in the forums but its not exactly a big shouting match. But now Braxiss knows what its like to be on the receiving end of someone violating the rules and has learned something.

You are right as usual Buzz. I need to let go of my feelings. I’m sorry.

It just spiked me when I saw someone who mistreated me complaining about being mistreated themselves. I guess I just wanted Braxiss to be aware of this in case he wasn’t. Although it might not be my place to try and “enlighten” people.

So I hereby forgive Braxiss for any trespasses against me. I hope we can be friends.

I sense bitterness in you Ioshee. That's the thing with rules, some people only want to see them enforced when the person is committing the infractions against them. Of course it sounds like this guy wasn't just breaking the rules against braxiss but several people.

Well Baxiss, I didn't know the rules concerned you since you have chat killed me before.

In case you don't remember, we were kick dueling one time and you kept emoting. When I stopped to ask you why, you killed me. I’ve never really had a chance to ask you why because you disconnected right after that.

Well anyway, I guess it’s good to see you are concerned about rule breaking now.

To me it sounds like a case where you HAVE to report him in. It's one thing when you can explain to them that they shouldn't do it (after some time of laming), but when he refuses to listen and continues what he is doing, you have to report him in, if he want to lame he should have chosen a public server to do it on.

She's an Expanded Universe Character. I believe you see her in 2 Prequel Novels, one of them being Rogue Planet. She then Reappears in the NJO books starting with Agents of Chaos: Hero's Trial. She is an odd one but very interesting.

sounds like he's definitely breaking the rules. The outside is for FFAing if everyone agrees that. If you're out there practicing your combos and not harming anyone, then he had no right to start shooting. Same thing with the FF dueling. That's definitely a rule infraction. He's interfering with an agreed upon fight. Just because there are people outside doesn't give him an automatic license to start firing away.

I'd definitely let whispy know. People get in trouble for doing less than this guy and they should. So he should not be let off the hook, especially if you have the proof to back it up.
