I'm not one who likes posting on forums because as always you get the people who enjoy being toxic.

But after this weekend, I decided after what happened let the hater's hate.

I registered and started posting. But had something happened to us this weekend we never expected EVER. I would have done this sooner but had midnight shifts.

I have been playing this game with my friends for a few weeks. I always read the forums but never registered. I read the positive things and the negative things and yes many times just shook my head. After leaving Haven landing on main land I was player killed by a guild within a matter of minutes, yes it's part of the game. But what was weird is that the guild leader who streams and promotes this game always brags "we don't kill newbies, we don't kill single players". (cough bs).(won't mention his name but he must have a lot of built up anger).Tip if your thinking about the game, please check out other streamers not just ones with big numbers.

I was never one for big guilds for some reason, they don't appeal to me. Well for 6 day's my friends and I farmed materials to place a house down for the patch that is coming. When we were placing the house, the same guild from before killed us and looted everything. We lost house deed, materials, crafting tables which was a medium, okay we lost everything. We were beyond mad, we were extremely #@#@# off.

Back to Morin Khur and start farming all over again. This one player was there chopping wood from the previous week. We usually just said hi and went about our day, but he asked how we liked our house and did we find a flat spot. I explained what happened and noticed that he had a guild tag above his head. I said wait isn't that a rpk guild? Turns out this character is one him and his daughter made together and that he usually plays his main when she is on.

I thought my mic was broke cause I didn't hear him reply and saw he disconnected When he came back I asked the same question and he replied ? Hey I love watching streams and listening to help chat but told him, I heard his guild rpked,pked newbies and didn't help others. He laughed and replied "never believe what you hear". Then I asked why was he here chopping wood when his guild was on the other side of the map. He replied "I farm sponge wood and donate it to my guild. He explained he wasn't great at player versus player so it is his way of contributing. Now I understand we all have thing's we love doing in games but this player was farming wood for hours, when I woke up he was there farming wood or just coming back from dropping some off.

He said be right back. My friend and I started chopping wood and 15 minutes later he showed up with 3 horses behind him. (we honestly thought he logged off or played us) but he unfriended the 3 horses and told us to take them and follow him to the bank. (my friend meanwhile is saying to me in my head set at the same time is he taking us to kill us?) . We followed him to the bank and next thing my trade window went up.

Inside was Small house deed tier 1,2,3 and furniture with 2 crafting tables. I clicked it off and said thanks but I couldn't accept. Clearly he isn't great at hearing cause the window popped up and again filled with those same items. In local chat were the words, don't believe everything you hear about guilds, and 3 smiles. He said if we did not take the items, he would drop them. My friend meanwhile is yelling in my ear TAKE IT, so we did. He then asked how much wood we needed and handed it over. For the longest time in real life , I lost my faith in humanity that people only thought of themselves and yet here in a video game, someone I didn't know that well, someone who I read and heard belonged to a guild that didn't help people now offer's me all this? I thanked him and all he could say is here is my discord and if you need help or get player killed again look for me here as well here is my discord. He gave me his guild's link if we decided to join a bigger one. Before you say it, I'm not a fan boy of any guild , I don't hate or have a favourite guild. The one thing this player said still even now sticks out in my mind. He said it's a game but the people I play with have not just been a group of players but they have been people who have made me become a better man.

To the player who helped me all I can say is that day you didn't just help me in game, you restored my faith in humanity. Chopping wood has to be the most boring thing in the game yet here is a player who chops wood for hours and hours and just gives it away to his guild? Most games everyone want's to be rich and have the nicest thing's in game. Final note Henrik thank you for making this game, I was really sinking to a low level of depression seeing how people outside of game have been treating each other. This was something I never ever expected.

Our house is placed, and we are paying it forward .
Fire thank you from the bottom of my heart, you not only left me speechless but you left me with 3 very happy friends who did not have to cut wood again . It still shocks me how someone can do that for hours and days.
I hope in time we feel brave enough to visit the part of the map his guild resides in. I would like to meet the people he spoke about.
If you feel the need to reply with something negative to say please move on.

Yes there are quite a few actually, MO is a very diverse group of people; some are extremely goal oriented and will do just about anything. Some of them are really nice. Some of them want to use you. Some of them want to be used by you.

But... it's just a mishmash of people. Like I told doods on steam who were mad at grief, you gotta understand people who fall to 'the griefer,' have been psychologically broken by MO (or life in general,) so in a way... it's unfortunate for them. There are tons of good people in this game. I'd go as far as to say on average there are more good people in this game than bad people, character wise, but that doesn't mean that some of the good people wouldn't loot your house haha. Still, I'd maybe even go as far as to say the good people who wouldn't loot your house outnumber those who would.

The thing is: MO is lacking content and most people who aren't in here to endlessly jerk themselves and their friends off are either here to compete w/ other people or help other people, or both. That's why I tell people TALK TO OTHER PEOPLE. Taking to someone can even save your life, haha. Make someone laugh before they PK you or whatever. Loss is unfort, glad you got your house up; I dunno, did they drop the patch finally? ;/ But yea man... community is what is gonna make this game and all of us incessantly whining on forums are asking for TOOLS. And yes, pvp is a tool, too.

It is usually individuals that are toxic not entire guilds. Some guilds do have more toxic members than others but you will find friendly guys in just about any guild. Some guilds also change over time.

Having said that, the guild RPK had a long history in MO1 of doing a lot of really shady and shitty things. They had an over abundance of dickheads for a very long time. Perhaps the new members of RPK arent as retarded as the old ones. However that tag has a very deserved bad rep.

I an glad you got to meet the new RPK instead of the old one.

I thought they might be talkin' about RPK but I don't know if that was explicitly stated.

Esp unless RPK moved, he said "In MK, guild on other side of map."

Thank you Fire and Tendra , we were looking forward to the patch today but good things come to those who wait.
We are enjoying it with our friends from Albion who bought the game today and joined us. Once again we can't thank you enough for what you did for us. We did ride by where we usually see you cutting wood and didn't see you as we have something to show our appreciation. But have to get ready for work and hopefully we will see each other again this week.

No the guild was not called Rpk, the guild was said to rpk and pk. But you are correct their are good eggs and bad eggs in every group.

Loved the story, reminds me of this one player in MO1 who picked up all my stuff after I accidentally turned grey inside Tindrem bank. I think I accidentally hit the banker with my fist, and the lictors one-shot me.

After two minutes I resurrected and went back to the bank, thinking that my stuff would all have been looted by random players. But this player came up to me and handed all my stuff back to me.

In their own words, "Saw you die, not sure why. So, brought back all your stuff. 🙂 " Before I could thank them and maybe give them something as a reward, the player was gone.

Then recently in MO2, I got ganked by a pk and had to teleport back to home priest. Someone in help chat told me my stuff is still in my loot bag. I was cautious, thinking that this is an attempt to lure me back to the place so they can gank me again.

So I went back with nothing on me, and saw a player guarding my loot bag. They told me that they had killed the pk and asked me if anything was missing. The pk didn't take anything, presumably because the lone guardian came and intercepted him before he could loot my bag.

The player then stood guard over in the distance watching over me while I did some pve. I didn't want to take up too much of their time so I waved goodbye and thanked them one last time.

As I was making my way back to town, I turned around and saw the guardian player trailing behind me from a distance. I didn't draw my weapon or start sprinting, believing that the player would not do anything untoward. My thinking was that they were just escorting me from a distance in case I got jumped again.

The player caught up to me and gave me a massive two-handed axe as a gift before bidding farewell and went on their way.

There are good-hearted, altruistic people in the game as I've long since come to realise. They often show up out of the blue when you least expect it, or when you are expecting the worst outcome. Only to be very pleasantly surprised, and as you say, have your faith in humanity restored. 🙂

I did receive some mail asking me if the guild was RPK , where do they live and other mail saying how terrible they are. (sorry never met a guild called RPK).

So let's clear it up the guild this player belonged with was Koto and not RPK .
Yes I have seen some comments in help chat concerning them , kind of hard not to when the person goes on for hours and you have to shut help chat off. If people listened to what everyone said about them, then this game would not have anyone playing. My post was posted cause of what it did for me personally so if people want to make comments and be rude please move on. It's not going to be the contents of the game that drives people away it is going to be attitudes of people putting each other down or freaking out.(some should not be playing if they really get that upset) just personal opinion.:unsure:

Would you really pay monthly for a game hearing #### and ### all the time? There are many great streamers, it is what people watch to help you decide if you want to buy the game or not. Personally have watched some that left me wondering ?????? Of course there are going to be times where you want to throw your mouse and scream, but those are the times you take a half hour break. I agree totally with what you say it's individuals not whole guilds cause you are right. (y);)

A few times I had a guild kill me one day and the next day a member of that guild helped me. So I agree with you.
You need good guys and bad guys in every game, but you don't need the toxic fuming 24/7 mad type.

We koto do not RPK despite what people say. We have rules and regulations. If you are on the list however, we will kill you without mercy. Also, if you have problems with us and you seek no ill will, just simply reach out. We have some amazing and fun members who are very kind.

Well my friends and I do really appreciate what your guild member did for us. I did try messaging Fire again today but no response, even went by where he usually is and neither him or his daughter were chopping wood. He spoke highly about a few people in your guild and hope one day soon get to meet them. :D

I only met him and his daughter from farming wood cause in the city the chance of being killed are a lot less then in the wild.
I do hope I meet more people like him and those he spoke about, maybe when we get higher and better situated we will cross the land and head to the other side of the map.

Some people in my guild told me about your post and you are welcome. This is a pvp game and i know this very well being killed a lot cause i try to do stuff alone. But if it wasn't for people in koto esp some I really respect like Kuthara being the leader he is I call him war-master and his officers the son's and daughters of horus after my favourite books. Gold and items can be replace but friendship and respect cant be bought.
Many in my guild would have done the same I could name them but with my typing and grammer I would mess it up. its easy doing boring stuff when its for people you care about and knwing they have your back. Dealing with some rl issues and will be back to wood. Enjoy the house and if your guild ever is looking for a good one to merge into then look us up.
U can be a bad guy in this game or a good guy but its how u act people remember.

We are glad you are still playing, for a minute thought you gave up after reading your thread.
I was taught this by my father:
If a person was drowning would you save them, risking your life. (yes you would of course )
But would they help you? :eek:

You can tell you care about your guild, but if you ever make a alternate and want to chill. By all means come and relax(no chopping wood :eek::oops::ROFLMAO:
I was player killed last night , no name calling nothing just a good fight.
So I agree with you, how you act does matter.(words matter)
Have a great weekend my friend.
I was never into those books and looked it up. Warhammer ?
