So booting is better than just killing em back?

[Piosidon]

So booting is better than just killing em back?

Well I almost never host my own games so....

[maneatingtree]

Yes or no question...

[razerfingers]

Yes or no question...

Yes

[Otukura]

I don't rush; I take preventative measures. :D

[maneatingtree]

Low lvl rushers always get the boot or ( my favorite option) they get dead.

[Onaraasider]

I hate those ppl that continuously rush u just becuz u rushed them once, I was accused of rushing when I had auto attack on, and person started attacking someone and my auto attack triggered when they stomped. I was rushed the rest of the game and the next.

Im beginning to lean towards this.
If you enter a pvp arena be prepared to fight. Its not a social circle gather or a place to stay afk or chat all day.
Idk what happened to pvp but it used to be ffa fun all day. No crying bc u know and accept the possibility by entering you will die.
It seems like the weak began make the arena a domesticated formal dance.
May I have this dance? Sure. Or no or wait ... Zzzzzz.

Tell me this. Does anyone make pve games and just sit in there talking or afk? Do u wait for everyone and say go? Its a dungeon right? You kill mobs amd the boss no? I know pve is easy and a walk in the park compared to pvo but if you cant hang make a private game w ur friends and make your social pow wow.
Take off the kid gloves and fight! Itll make u better, a player forged under pressure will always be better.
People call rushers noobs but who is the real noob? The ppl sitting around talking or afk in an arena!!!! Or the person who came to pvp?
If you cant handle it there is also a leave button, pvp, or cs u could go to.

Not speaking to anyone in psrticular or personally. This is in,general.
Typically Mud Mash or alien underground matches are ffa gogogo paced. Where as forest fights are 1/1 pow wow social circles arena.

Why do we kill murderers? I mean in real life in America. Makes you think huh?

Also Ililijopliliil is the best pvper at 23 and she/he rushes like nothing else...

My point is, I doubt all rushers are noobs, and I doubt letting them rush will solve the problem. I mean letting a spoiled child have their way just makes them more spoiled. A spanken on the butt however usually cures the problem. However, pvp wise, "Spanking them," or rushing back, won't solve anything unless they are aware WHY (caps for emphasis, not yelling) you are rushing them back.

Obviously this part my opinion, however I hope it is, and i believe it is, the right one. Cheers

Edit: My solution to this problem is listed in my thread "League of shadows (putting rushers in their place)"

Some nice ideas, but at one point I have to disagree:

Of course I will fight back! And you can't call it "rushing" back with the meaning of attacking an unprepared player since whoever rushes will be pretty much aware of the propability that he will be killed.
Or does a person rush you and than just stand around waiting for something to happen? No, either they leave -.- or they try to go on rushing.
And actually, I like how some rushers spice up some PvP games aka as forest chatclubs *
You have to be always prepared when somebody joins the game whose intentions you don't know.
When I see them buffing and running towards me, I usually buff too, but I don't attack until they do the first step. If they do, so do I and most likely I manage to shoot them down quickly, since as you said, they are "noobs" (most likely...). But sometimes I'm in a 1v1 fight or texting or something, and the rusher get's me.
In both cases the first thing I ask is not "Noob rusher!" or something like this but simply "why?" or "why rushing?" So they have a chance to say something in case they are just new to PvP. If so, I don't mind.
I find all these players who always ask for "freebies" or "revenge kills" completely ridiculous. Many "pros" do it as well.
But in case they don't, but they try to rush me again, they can be prepared for some 1v1 rushing action, that goes as long as someone leaves or gives up.
And I, personally really enjoy those, since it requires much more strategy than a simple 1on1. Running, tree hugging, everything allowed!
Only thing I don't like, eventhough I might be sometimes guilty of this, is when the whole team - even non-rushed players - group up against this one person... No more challenge at all.

So, I think everyone can handle rushers like they feel to, but IMO, if they really ASK for a beatup, they will get it and I will serve it with a smile on my face.
Worst thing to do is to smack talk against the rusher, this won't help!

I don't know who posted this once in a thread, but it's so true, it stuck to my mind:

"Only a noob calls others noob. Pros shut up and kill."

I was never a fan of what became of pvp in PL... the maps are designed for teams to blast away in a sort of organized free-for-all. that is what all the trees and columns and side passages are for. All this one on one stuff probably came about due to people simply not being able to execute what they want unless they have a pristine, lab-ready environment.

frankly, the true measure in pvp is whether you can survive a $h17-storm free for all with a better ratio. not only does it test your general skill usage and timing, it also tests you ability to adapt to a fluid environment, and use it as you have the ability to.

There is a reason we no longer fight wars by lining up on opposite sides of a field and shout "fire!".

[GELLIO77]

dude... so what your telling me is ull let me farm kills of u? cos u wont rush me back for rushing u? because really, standing there doing nothing encourages them and they will rush again... so imo your suggestions are not the best

[Paar]

Exactly! Just Leave or Boot , Because once you start rushin theres no turning back!
