    I understand that but it is very easy to look at the leaderboard and see who a player is by their level and that is not allowed , it will always get deleted if seen by Mod or a developer

    He knows how to play this game he was high level on hi5 above 3000 so my own concern is not when you atack someone is when you get listed for no ever reason.From my own experience i wrote once in world chat to add me and in 5 minutes i got listed from someone of level 5000 . for no reason what so ever.so you see dumb arshes are all around :)

    of course , some people are very mean, to get listed for using the world chat for crew is not cool at all, if you need clan I would be glad to help you get some.

    Here I must admit that I do sometimes list people from the World Chat. The reasons range from "I'm bored, let's annoy some people." to "You didn't seriously type something (offending) like this?!" Oh, and let's not forget the people who whine about this and that on the feed, they are free game for some listing.

    Does "I attacked a higher level and now they won't stop attacking me.I set counters,but because they're 4k levels higher,my counter doesn't work because they're over 100,000% stronger." count? :D Fyi,I gone through someones counters before just like someone went through mine,because our attack was over 100,000% stronger.It showed that the counter was set,but it didn't make me lose.

    I suppose outing someone on in the Forum and then having them trying to intimidate your gameplay could be classed as bullying.

    I'm not complaining as I guess some people are desperate to silence people about their goings on, but where as I find it hilarious, some would be concerned.

    No names mentioned, but this is his performance in the last few days...
    Attacks from: 1 attack,8 bounties,22 axe slaps,1 bounty trap in 3 days Last attacked: 6 minutes ago

    Come on people it's mob wars. The word wars is exactly that. No whiners need apply to mob up with me. I am a higher level on myspace with no fight list at all. Guess what? You land on my rivals i will own you no matter what level you are. You can ambush or list me all you want, it won't stop me :) So for many levels if you have come after my bounty yes you will get pounded. I have killed people daily for well over a year for accusing me of being a bully. In actuality it was them trying to bully other members of my mob. Then this person had the nerve to actually post a topic on the myspace forum whining and accusing me of bullying him. Care to guess how well that went over with myself and my fellow mobbies???? :confused:

    I have to agree with you on extracting whatever you can. I would extend the strategy to helping protect squad members too.
    To be honest there are too many lame protection systems in place.
    I would remove ambushes and booby traps, and also stop bounties increasing each time someone is listed.
    It worked in the proper Mobwars, an app with over 2 millions members at the time, I can't see why it can't work with any fighting app.
    Sure a few people cried, but they can always walk away if they don't like the game.

    Too many protection deals is exactly right. There was no 30 day protection when i hit mob wars on myspace. Sounds like some folks do a helluva of crying and whining to kano to get them to cover their azz.

    Bullying is possible in the game. I did not have the patience to read this whole thread, just the OP. So here is my opinion.


    Attacking a lower level on your rivals, definatley not bullying. listing them a time or two after you kill them and knock them off your rivals. Fine and dandy.

    Listing them 10+ times. taking advantage of the fact that they have such a low income that you can list them endlessly, and they cannot even afford your trap. or punching them hourly day in and day out, trying to get the off chance that they attack you back by mistake. I consider those practices moderate bullying.

    Intense bullying, that would involve saving thier link to your computer or your trap list, and running back over them randomly or daily to list them repeatedly. even tho you have already proved your point, You're just bored and feel like picking on them, because they attacked you or killed somone you know, or are a friend of somone you dont like.


    all that being said. I have been known to do some bullying In my day... Usually based on somones mouth. Disrespect for women... calling people names, or just being generally arrogant trying to act like you're better than somebody. That has gotten people on my shiz list of pain.

    I cant say i never have. but i have tried not to bully anyone that didnt deserve it.

    Now I will become a big bully to some unsuspecting targets and to some that are expecting it.
    See what kind of reaction happens to the unsuspecting targets.
    This will happen on viking in the very near future.
    Let's see if complaints happen.
    If so,then good,maybe the blacklist feature or protection feature will appear.
    Yes my opinion on this has changed.
    But I will encourage bullying practices so an anti bully feature will appear hopefully.
    The more complaints about something like this,the more likely much needed anti bully features will appear.
    Yes,it'll blow a major hole in some of the bully's strategies and gameplay,but the game isn't meant for bullying.

    I agree that it get thrown around too loosely. But what I'd believe to be "bullying" in my case would be when A member of some faction attacks, hitlists you, and then has all the members attack, punch, and hitlist you. Note: most of them are above lvl 1000. And I'm only lvl 440. And the do it everyday, every 24-hour period. I went from having 99bil saved to just 40bil in healing myself whenever I want to try and do a boss fight. Unless I'm up at 3am, that's when it seems I can get anything done in the game.

    I agree mostly with what you have said. I have edited out the above portion of your quote to focus on these last few paragraphs because there are players that just dont have a limit with their power.

    I am recently back to this game several years later so Im not a new player. I was one of the first to start playing this game right when it was released. I still have records on the leader board even though I havent played in over a year or 2 (Joined 866 days ago). So Im no rookie but I must say that some of the larger players today (which i was at one point) are more on the bully side than they need to be. At some point you need to realize that you made your point and move along.

    Part of this game is to go for hit-lists and yes I know that doing so usually comes with a reciprocated hit-list from the sore losers, but listing and attacking a player non stop around the clock is a bit over board IMO. I am literally on some dudes clock and hes punctual and doesnt appear to sleep. LOL

    I though a player timed out after a death and became untouchable at some point. Apparently things have changed a bit. No big deal, I can still level despite this persistent hit listing but I wanted to comment on your view as its missing the Ahole types that do play this game as well.

    Keeping a player dead on your own or having others kill a person when you cant is just counter productive to another players ability to play this game. If i want experienced, I would have said F this game and split. This in the end is a lost of potential customer revenue for the company and hurts you in the end. (Im not company advocate...clearing that up now!!)

    So in the end, flex your muscles and grunt and move on after you beat the lil punk up a bit. Continuing to pound a person round the clock just shows how big of a wanker you are in real life. Its a game and a person that beats the crap outta person non stop is showing no skill at all. Its brainless abuse regardless of what you say. Having been at the top, I do know what its like and Id like to think I wasnt this much of an Ahole as my current admirer. And for the record, this guy was hit-listing another low level player round the clock too and he never even attacked him on the bounty list. So this guy is a proven wanker. lol

    Now im sure Ill get my hate mail and be reminded that Im off my rocker and was a wanker at one point. Who knows but Ill be back to the top soon enough and ill have my revenge in the end. ;-)

    cheers

    This echos many of the reasons I left the game years ago. I love the quote about "Nice Kill" this is what im talking about! For some reason the players now that are listed are all angry at the bounty hunter. Its hilarious. An dont give me the BS about, Im just making my XP back. The XP on a smaller player 4xs smaller gives crap XP and you dont get XP after you hit the attack limiter. Serial listing the player also doesnt give you any XP.

    The "Nice Kill" attitude use to happen in the beginning but the angry wankers with their many alts have chased off the other players and this is why you have short fight lists. Its alot better for me now several years later coming back because Kano has managed to wrangle in new sheep, but I still exhaust the fight lists. I really expected this game to be flush with players. Its a brainless game, requires little skill to play and I figured it would be more popular by now. I was mistaken. lol

    In the beginning there werent limiters on attacks and those were added to help stop this bully behavior but unfortunately the jerks are still here. LOL They didnt have a clue of gamesmanship then and they certainly havent learned anything in the last few years. You can only feel sorry for these dim whited players and try to shoot around them.

    a consistant bounty not like 5 times in a row but i would say 100 or more in a day from the same person and he does this everyday(dont think that has happend but i think that should be considered bullying) and the only reason they have is because the other person caged them once or they bounty atacked them once cus i meen getting atacked once isnt a bg deal unless the other player wants that to be a big deal.
