What makes a bully?
Forums › General Discussion › What makes a bully?-
Lately I have been hearing a ton about bullying. So let me drop in my 5 cents. There is nothing wrong with capping, it is turf wars not farmville. That being said, a lot of people there seem to think it's all good to take any turfs they lose to others from one much smaller player. My thoughts are share the love around, it's easier to take turf from some one with 2 or 3 k less mob, but isn't it more fun to fight with a player more your size ? Either way that's my 5 cents have fun, spread it around, and if we don't help noobs now there won't be future players.

you answered your own question, "its easier to take turf from someone with 2 or 3k less mob" and thats one of the many qualifications for being a bully, someone that targets the weak and avoids conflicts with equal amount of mob members due to fear, so no need for anymore replies :D

....don't forget, the game is called "Turf Wars".
The best way to look at a in game bully is the same out side of the game. A bully is a bully, but playing a game like this is also just a game. -
....and, the combat system is not set up 100% for fare game play. You need 2k-3k more mob or about 15% larger to cap a turf. That in it's self make the game play with larger folks taking from smaller, etc....

Just trying to stimulate some thoughts on the subject.

no you dont, ive capped ppl with the same amount of mob before, even ppl higher than me, it just depends on who you attack (what weapons they you, what weapons you use) but if you're someone thats looking for a 100% win then thats when the 2k+ comes into play....and, the combat system is not set up 100% for fare game play.

It's next to impossible for me to cap turf UNLESS I go after someone with 2k less mob.
IMO, capping smaller weaker players isn;t bullying.
Bullying is constant attacks, capping and oppression. Not letting a player grow.
If I take 6-8 or even 10 turf off a mid level or higher player half my mob size...that's just game play. If I did that every day, day in and day out, that's getting closer to bullying.

But really, what are you suppoosed to do?
Suppose i never left hawaii? I have 12k mob, and the next two biggest mobs here are 6k and 4k.
Do I have to NOT play to play fair?

Oh yeah? Well I opressed a bday turf for you, but you never answered my PM.
Now you gotta be able to take on 10k AKs if you want it.
Go to my turf list. It's right below the PB turfs

Agree with chainsaw. Tale me as an expample. I'm in CA big mob territory. The next nearest player to me is about 3k less. Am I a bully if I cap off him? Is he the only player I should be able to cap off of? And should
the players I cap only ever be the plauers on the top moblist? -
IMO there really isn't much real bullying in this game. Bullying lile cc said is to constantly oppress
a player and keep them down mob size has nothing to do with it. Turf # does somewhat but the game already has protections in place against that. -

it depends primo. 1.5 mob for me equally armed is barely cappable. Anything less will not be possible at all. At the lower mob levels it's different.RENO🌵💀 wrote:

I agree with Chainsaw and Belial (on this topic). The game has been set up to avoid certain "bully" issues. Still, yes you need a bigger mob or better weapons to cap turf. Each come with experience. Sometimes to develop noobs there are tough lessons to learn. Sometimes that means one turf, five, ten, who knows it depends on the noob. "Don't complain", "Mob up". Some get it quick and some need to lose ten turf. Some need to feel "Anger" in order to learn (just ask Marbles).

As I said I am just sparking the conversation, I suppose it was aimed at those at those with 5k capping the 1500 size mobs , o make up for the turfs they list yo the 7k mobs and do on..

I feel the need to express another point here as well.
Some folks put the time and effort into the game building their mobs. Some folks do not put the time and effort into building their mobs.
And we all know what a MAJOR PAIN IN THE ASS mob building is.
Therefore, thise who put in the time and effort deserve to reap the rewards of their efforts.
Honestly, all of players with under 10k mob and in my range should be greatful that I am the peaceful player that i am. But don't take my peacefulness for granted. It won't last forever. I'm only 4.1 levels away from flipping the switch to evil.
There si still time to save yourselves....
