The Situation
So I had my first encounter with being "hunted" a while back. The situation went like this: I am l80 bird wearing elites, while on the opposing pvp team had a bird who was supposedly l75. I asked the bird to "go", which by the way is uneccessary and I could of easily "rushed" (I'll explain this later). The bird refused, and I just killed him. This might sound unjustified and cruel, but the validity is there.
Although it is true, straight up kiiling someone might seem cruel when the opposing didn't feel like or simply didn't want to fight, but you should always expect to be attacked in an environemt that the function is literally a place to kill each other. The attacker should reserve every right to kill the opposing, because in PVP it isn't supposed to fair. The players themselves come into the arena to fight, and it isn't the attacker's responsiblities for them to be fully prepared or not. The act of "rushing" is looked down upon as "rude" or even unfairly boosting kdr , but in reality all people want to do is fight and win. But I agree, rushing is still a bit of an impolite gesture because most players tend to want a fair fight. I myself don't rush alot, but sometimes i can't restrain myself when i see an underleveled or frail bird. Even if I do rush sometimes, I do accpet the fact of being impolite and such, but how can you not rush when a naked bird is sitting right there rejecting your every call to fight?
Why is the way hunting is USED bad?
Does "hunting" really justifiy what happened? Hunting is just another way of rushing a rusher. It is certainly legal and fine, but when players start to use that tatic as an excuse for someone else rushing, that is flawed and illogical. It's basically like this: A l80 bird rushes a l75, somebody acusses him/her of rushing and threatens to hunt. Do u see what is wrong with this? They're doing the exact same thing to the rusher, that the rusher did.
Anyways I just wanted to express my opinions. If someone already had a similar post, let me know cus i dont want to be copying and sh*t
