Recruiting has been going for a few days, the criteria is raising but we also have a 7 guild union of which many of them are recruiting also.

Edit: Cool pictures:






We have a blast!

Welcome UNITED to SRF. Plz try to make images smaller

wow that is insane i see the united guild in babel u guys the same guild? i heard they were the strongest guild too in babel.

Yes, this is the same United on Babel. I didint make nor host the pix I just copied the links and posted them here.

We have (2) 60's, (1) 59 almost 60, several 51+ and a solid group from 45-50. Some newer people are 40-45, lvl 4 clan and nearly full!

WE have a 7 guild Union, and when we make a union call they come and come fast and thier will be carnage and we will succeed!

What's that red skull thingy below the hp bars of Skip and Hyori? >.<

Murderer status.

Yep, its murder status, we have a few that dont care to deal with KSers and prefer to make them dead!

Several of us have murder status due to a noob guild that likes to deguild during wars while being attacked also.....

meh, I don't find it as newb as people who exploit the 1* trader glitch and rape level 20s as a thief.

What "glitch"?

You know what he means. Guiding your NPC thieves toward 1-star traders in order to circumvent game mechanics intended to protect 1-star traders from higher level thieves.

ah, but can you say that ten times fast?

Usually they attack wht attacks them or is crazy enuff to stand around.

Nothing protects 1* runs from AI controlled mobs except the brains of the player with the 1*.

It doesn't matter how much you protect. You're level 52+ yet you stood infront of my caravan for a long time until you thieves finally accidentally ganked me. I hope you had fun killing a level 22 on a 1 star trade run? You can't possibly tell me that you weren't purposely exploiting a bug in the goal of killing a bunch of level 20-26s.

Must of been me just standing around.

Your actions and the actions of many other high-level players fit the definition of bug abuse/exploitation as deliberate circumvention of explicitly stated game mechanics for personal gain.

The explicitly stated game mechanics: 1-star traders are protected from the efforts of player thieves to kill them.

The method of circumventing these mechanics: maneuvering your own pack animal in such a way that the NPCs which should attack you instead attack the 1-star trader.

What you gain thereby: the ability to kill 1-star traders without waiting for them to be killed by the environment, so that you can steal their cargo.

Oh thats just plain mean...

tisk tisk

Damn you should of told me you were taking pictures I would of fixed my hair!

Am I not allowed to use the road?

Is it my job to step aside and allow you to use the road?

Is it ok that a high level trader can take a one star while escorting a couple low levels doing 5* so the theif cannot attack the high level they get to choose when to attack? Had this happen last night......

Is it fair to use the safety zone in PvP aka Wars...step out, nuke, teleport to safety.

Is it the Theifs duty to evaluate each and every player to make sure they are not picking on a low level? Is he only suppose to steal from someone that is X-Y level differences than he is?

Is it the responsibility for the high level hunter to not attack low level thieves?

Hunters can trade all day non-stop 1* with minimal risk, hunters can run around and kill NPC theives all day if they wish, but you expect a Theif to not use everythign supplied by this game in order to do his job which is Thieve?

When I thieve I scan everywhere for runs to hit, I dont just pick up some pc of loot wiht a fast moving horse and start trying to spawn theives on 1* runs. YOu were unfortunate and came along when I had hit a 2* (which was a Theif) which gave me a 1* and I walked with you a bit to see if I could get more.

I cant tell you how many times I have seen Theives do this and you know it isnt very easy to pull off if the Traders use thier brains even a little bit especially if its a camel.

Nothing protects you and your camel from death, you need to relize and accept that. You also should not hate the Thief for doing his job, I do not hate the Trader for doing 1* and making it very tuff for me to Thieve.

I also get a good portion of my Thieving done by hitting other Thieves! IfI happen along some non-union Thieves I will usually kill them and if they have loot I will definetly kill them.

You know I have even rezzed people i have killed thieving and even given them things. I once hit a 3* just outside Jangan, just before I killed her she killed one of her Thieves of which dropped a weapon elixer....ofcourse I picked it up she was dead, she came back.....thru out some text in a language I didint understand and I tossed her the Elixer. Hell for all I know she was cussing me out. The best part was she picked it up, turned to leave, got bow distance turned and shot me with a chain then left. I stole 45k from her and gave her a 200k Elixer that I ddint have to give......hell I could of made 245-270k easy for that run.

I have had traders that I tried to spawn thieves on that did everythign they could to keep me from doing it and I saluted them and let them be, but when someone just lets me do it.....thier loss. It may be very possible you were the group the other day I was going to let go but as I turned to leave one of the camels died so I looted it. I started to port out and walked away and found another one of them dead so I looted tht one also. This group I am thinking of was doing a bunch of manuvering, I tried a bit and started to give up. FYI, I hit 3 runs in the area of that picture recently. It is one of the least favorable spots to try and spawn thieves on people it is too wide open and there is the ferry close by. If I was only spawning theives I would have a horse and be by the junction of the two ferrys in Jangan area.

You can call me or think me evil if you wish, I am just out there having a little fun, breaking up the grind of leveling. I tend to always level between 6-9PM EST and then spend 1-1.5 hours thieving before I go to bed. I am mainly out there looking for enemies or big runs. If I hit a 2* and it only gives me 1* of loot I am going to try and get more somehow but since I am handicapped by a slow camel I cant just go hunt everwhere like I can on horseback so I use "what the game gives me" which is my Theives to try and get more loot.

I dont hack, I dont bot, I refuse to use things like that. I dont even go around murdering people. If you killed a foe and drop an SoS or SoM I wouldnt murder you for the drop like many will. I dont ks people or draw mobs on people (other than thieves). Frankly I am a very nice guy just trying to Thief......each run costs a camel (cant sell it back like traders can), a scroll, pots and time, usually a horse also. a little 20k theft doesnt get me much, I need 50-70k for it to be a good run. You do know Thieves only get even trade for loot not like Traders who get 2-7 times what the bought?

When you go and buy a camel, get a 1-5* you need to be doing that with money you can afford to loose! Someone is going to try and take it somehow if they can even if I quit Thieveing today somebody else will do it.

Dont hate the player, hate the game as the game gave me the ability to do what you dont like.....no hacks, no cheats, just plain and simple game mechanics.

Good day, and better luck next time.

It is every player's duty to maintain a reasonable level of good sportsmanship. A thief can steal whatever loot he finds on the ground, and attack whatever level player he likes, I have no problem with that, but the thief is not supposed to be able to attack 1-star traders. Purposely dropping your NPCs on them is WORSE than attacking them because if they are killed they take a full loss of experience for mob death.

I don't hate you or anyone else who does this. I do think you're doing something that is wrong, and I wish you would stop doing it, or that Joymax would fix the loophole which enables you to do it.

Its not a loop hole, hell I can be a Trader and do the same thing to you and just have my friends get the goods! I can also walk around as a level 60 Trader and be one star, nobody can touch me but my Theives will kill all.........

NPCs Thieves attack all............

BTW, the only duty/responsibility/obligations I have in this game is to play it, have fun and not use 3rd party programs to do it.

***It is every player's duty to maintain a reasonable level of good sportsmanship***

And how is this for good sportmanship I was at the stronghold and a low lvl player started in with me her name was Yin Quaid she told me she would pk me..so I told her to bring it on..she switched characters to Skiptomylou from UNITED and I said to him I was going to get my hi lvl chartacter too just give me 5 mins and we could battle it out...Skiptomylou pked and murdered me right there on the spot and turned red. I Said toSkiptomylou to wait there my high lvl character was on the way and he ran...
Sooo...this is the type of people that represent ur guild? Murderers and pkers? I would not murder or pk Yin Quiad cause she was obviously lower lvl than me...so she got her higher lvl character to pk my character and RAN when my "capped" character was coming to have a "fair" fight. Only the unscupluous would join this guild...

Well, a few of them do tend to murder but there is no need to be all upset about it they tend to pay for it in the end by someone finding them and killing them.

I no longer run wiht United, I left them Friday and I doubt I shall return.

None of them come here so......continue to add to this if you wish but I doubt any will see it.

hahahah this thread is getting so heated!!

I love it!

You may feel some heat but i dont or didnt.

**looks over at applejuicecaboose** I want some of what ur smokin man..

[edited]

Drachma, let it go. I've only ever seen two members even post here and one left United. In any case I don't need a member of my guild causing trouble with posts like that.

I'm sorry, it's just a few days of bad trading due to Thief-Camel exploits...

I now post here for United. Direct your hate to me.

huh? meeE?? bu-but stinger is the one with the good stuff.

didn't know this forum existed...
looks like i've become popular here too haha
