Living in the middle of the war ... ofc I mean (Horror vs Magnum)

[Dimitrian]

The game is a bit dynamic in terms of name perception and any individual entering a pvp room. I've played for longer than I care, and regularly used to fight friends for pure fun. I enter matches and get called on right away even though I still only use gear from last season and 2 seasons ago. I'm sure it's the same for you (sans the gear part).

The only old friends I still do this with are people like Serancha, Ravager, Safiras, Ceonatrah etc. - I find if I try to play just for fun against rival guilds it creates drama and I get trash talked till they are blue in the face. Examples include : Go join Horror, you'll always be Magnum, and other things said that my forum account would be banned for. I've found my faves are old school players from season 1,2,3 who will fight just to have fun - they don't care anymore, and to be honest, never cared anyways. We all used to hang out in the middle of the pvp room and play, most have quit and have been replaced by people who feel like they need to make a statement.

It's mostly ego and over involvement in things that don't matter in life; people need to justify their pixel existence, and overly so. It's never going to change really, I'm sorry. Guild clashes are fun though, it would be sad to lose that. PvP in AL is fun but my favorite times in sts pvp was with Dark Legends peeps 5 years ago - that was so fun I had a hard time pulling away. TBH some of the best AL pvpers came from DL, because it relied all on skill and not gear because everyone had the same gear.

Numerous people have said before and will be said again : Every match you join is a specific instance and will rely on the people making up STS's online community at the time. Since you tied your name to Horror at one point in time certain people will always see you as that. As an insomniac, playing at a certain time will also differ completely in your experience from another time (especially so if you are in a guild that has extreme rivals - see horror / magnum). Depending on the time the curve will dip to one another's advantage.

Wishing luck in everything,

Thought you quit the game.
Nice point though!
Those times...i remember when we used to kill trulle in TDM and make an armistice with the other team even if we didn't know each other....
I started playing in season 4...there wasn't any rivalry between guilds...and even if there was,it wasn't like today.Back then,pvp relied on skill and a good team...there was no such thing as "ganging","blocking" or "flagger"...everyone who had the pvp achievements was a pro player.Now,nearly everyone has them because "kill farming" and stuff like that.
I'm sorry if i triggered some tears,it's just...what it was back then,and what it is now...
