I was in Tenwat, minding my own business, taking a friend bashing, and then I notice Das and Elyse are there, too.

Nothing saying I can't still bash there just because a dragon shows up, and I know Das ICly so I figured hey, no worries.


I'm being really nice, because I like Das, and wait for him and his friend to turn in their corpses before I do the blood drop quest, and then this happens.




Das gives a vibrating stick to Lican, a mad occultist.
Lican throws a vibrating stick to the ground.
Lican, a mad occultist snarls, "What the hell is this for? How will this ever help me?"

5472h, 2948m, 23775e, 12300w, 23% cexkdb- (20:10:11:843)

(Party): You say, "Agreed."

5472h, 2929m, 23775e, 12300w, 23% cexkdb- (20:10:15:156)

Das picks up a vibrating stick.

5472h, 2929m, 23775e, 12300w, 23% cexkdb- (20:10:16:828)

You grin mischievously at Das.

5472h, 2948m, 23775e, 12300w, 23% cexkdb- (20:10:18:859)

Das says to Lican, a mad occultist with a deep, echoing accent, "Suit yourself."

5472h, 2948m, 23775e, 12300w, 23% cexkdb- (20:10:20:640)

You rub up against Das, purring like a cat.

5472h, 2948m, 23775e, 12300w, 23% cexkdb- (20:10:23:93)

Das slaps Lican, a mad occultist on the cheek.

5472h, 2948m, 23775e, 12300w, 23% cexkdb- (20:10:23:562)

Das gives you the once over.

5472h, 2933m, 23775e, 12300w, 23% cexkdb- (20:10:29:578)

"Heh heh heh," Elyse chuckles.

5472h, 2933m, 23775e, 12300w, 23% cexkdb- (20:10:29:859)

(Party): Elysina says, "...oh?"

5472h, 2929m, 23775e, 12300w, 23% cexkdb- (20:10:34:500)

A deathly calm descends upon your surroundings as Das draws himself up regally, eyes gleaming with murderous intent.

5472h, 2929m, 23775e, 12300w, 23% cexkdb- (20:10:34:781)

You cast a suspicious eye about your surroundings.

5472h, 2948m, 23775e, 12300w, 23% cexkdb- (20:10:38:859)

In a single, sinuous motion, Das manoeuvres his imposing form to encircle your feet, fixing you with a penetrating gaze as his tremendous jaws open wide.


[Vadi]: Warning - Das is devouring you!
[Vadi]: Warning - Das is devouring you!
[Vadi]: Warning - Das is devouring you!


5472h, 2948m, 23775e, 12300w, 23% cexkdb- (20:10:39:609)

(Das devouring you) "Eep!" you scream in fright at Das.

(Das devouring you) 5472h, 2948m, 23775e, 12300w, 23% cexkdb- (20:10:42:62)

Sticky strands of webbing spray out from your tattoo as you touch it, but Das dodges nimbly aside.

5472h, 2929m, 23775e, 12298w, 23% cxkdb- (20:10:44:171)

Before you can react, Das strikes downward, bringing his massive jaws together with a powerful snap. Searing pain encumbers every sense in your body as his teeth sink into your chest and tear upward, ruthlessly ripping your head from the flesh of your shoulders.
You have been slain by Das.
The corpse of a baby rat falls out of your inventory.
The corpse of a young rat falls out of your inventory.

A shard of rock falls out of your inventory.
A cracked clay jar falls out of your inventory.

Das says with a deep, echoing accent, "You purred on me."
Gorlasintan
That is a legitimate reason to kill someone.

Kitty-cats need to gtfo.
agrias
And people wonder why others get upset at PK. I didn't provoke anything, I didn't instigate, he didn't -state- that purring him would cause him to devour me. So it was just him doing it for the lulz.
armgrim
Sorry man no one is going to be on your side for this, you could of chosen a lot of other options other then webbing, Das wasn't being serious for the kill he went immediately for the devour. And you didnt get out the way. He was doing lulz at you to and you went and complained on forums not very cool.
Draqoom
That's what friends are for. Devouring you in Tenwat for lulz.
Rynn
I don't blame him, really.
berenene
So you can annoy him for lulz, the rubbing, but he can't do lulz at you? What was it that the pot said about the kettle? Something about being pinstripped
agrias
Oh, I must have missed that part on HELP PK that said if I emote purr at someone it gives them the right to kill me without warning.


My apologies.
Rynn
You're forgiven. Just don't screw up again.
rukimoro
You are dead, perhaps you should "Pray for Salvation".
agrias
...am I the only one here that views this as utter censored.gif?
Gorlasintan
Yes.
Quoren
While I think he ought to have given you some warning, I sympathize with him here.
Spire
I get it.

So now.. what do we do with the rest of the entire thread?
agrias
Same thing everyone else does whenever I post.


Continue to mock me?

Kaevan
I'm sort of opposed to snuggling, purring, and especially licking random strangers or even well-known strangers, so I can't really try to be unbiased about this. Yuck.
Tiax
I was scrolling through this, and saw the purr emote, and thought to myself, "Wow, I'm surprised Das is going to put up with that kind of idiocy." In short, I enjoyed this story.

Fact: People who randomly perform purr/lick/pounce/etc. deserve what they get.

That cookie confused me. I kept on wondering if it was now possible to envenom food.
agrias
Apparently, some people are missing the point.


I -know- Das ICly. Not because he's famous, or a dragon. He and Agrias have had many interactions.

I've done that emote to him before, on more than one occasion and he's done the same.

I figured we were still friends, hence why I did it in Tenwat.

I mean, I hadn't seen the guy in quite a while.


I -would- have ran from the devour, it's not like I didn't notice it, and if you look, you'll see I -did- try to web at the last second, but he had buckawn's and I didn't have any time to run after that. But I thought he was just kidding around, much like Rangor and Santar have both done to me. Testing me to see if I'm still on my guard, or just having fun, stopping it at the last second.


That's why I ranted on here. If I ran around doing snuggle emotes to any random stranger I came across, I'd probably die alot more than I do.


Hell, I'd probably kill someone if I didn't know them and they did the same thing.


But I -do- know him.

I think people are really starting to abuse the phrase "for the lulz".

If someone is purring at you like a simpering idiot (not saying that you're necessarily a simpering idiot, merely that you were acting like one), killing them isn't "for the lulz". Especially if that person has a history of not putting up with that kind of nonsense.

Also, agreed, he went straight for devour. The fact that it killed you is almost sad.

Edit: Ninja'd. Regardless of knowing people, purring at them out of nowhere should reasonably result in an attempt on your life. Unless you have a written confirmation reading "I like people purring at me" or are dealing with forestals, you should probably assume that this is a bad idea.

In fact, you should always assume that it's a bad idea. Damn snugglies.

Double edit: Holy -. I just looked under my avatar and noticed that I've been on the forums for over five years now. God help me.

I really have to question your logic.

And did you not hear me explain -why- I died to it? I thought he was joking at first. I don't insert my rapiers through the skull of someone immediately after I see them do an aggresive action. Because I'm not a censored.gif. When I figured it was going to happen, I tried to web, and henceforth, had no balance at the time the devour finished.
rledaman
I have been killed by my friends before, thinking that I would leave before an easily avoidable instakill goes through.

Also, he was playing with you because you purred at him, and started an easily avoidable instakill. Instead of blocking and actually trying to kill you.

Whenever I start a cleave or something with no prep, its like.. "hey man, if you arent an idiot, we can both giggle if this fails, if you are an idiot you are dead" . Instakills of those sort really are not harmful without prep.

Getting this mad is uncalled for.
Santar
One time Poergh told me she was going to be AFK for a sec, so I devoured her.

I have no compassion nor shame.
berenene
You know, instead of doing an action that would throw you off balance, web, you could have just moved in the first place. Not saying that what he did was right or wrong, just that you had other options open to avoid it rather then doing an action that would throw you off balance making it harder for you to avoid it before it compleated

You're all still missing the underlying point, that it shouldn't have happened period.



But whatever. I've calmed down, I look back and don't care anymore.


So this thread is now dead.
flair
It's a silly reason to kill someone without warning, but Das probably wasn't serious. I mean yeah, warn, then kill. Das will mess around though. Overall, live and learn.

I like this phrase.


agrias was acting like a simpering idiot
Dinkybarrel
I almost enemied someone the other day for being a snuggleface at me. She was all annoying and crap getting all cuddly to a complete stranger (me) and then repeatedly trying to follow me because I mentioned (to someone else) that I had a private garden. I was like 'gtfo my personal space' and she was all like 'whyyyyy'. So I was like "Can I enemy her D:<" on city council and Vastar was like "You can enemy anyone for any reason".

Anyway, Das has always been pretty random in his behaviour. He's done/said some crazy stuff that make me go O_o IRL before so I'm not surprised about the devouring. Frankly if it were me I'd have done it too. The only people who are allowed to purr on me are the people I want to purr on. And that doesn't even cover 5% of the playerbase.

nothing to see here, really.

things like that are pretty common so I doubt many will really care about it.

But that some lol people define actions like some intense RP moment is pretty cute.

Good, now you can adjust your interactions with him accordingly. Get out there and RP.

That being said, I feel some sympathy because unexpected deaths are never fun. But my advice remains the same, run with it and RP.

No.

In the end, meh. It's just text xp.

Oh noes. I'll have to go back to bashing for a little longer now.


Meh.



Doesn't bother me anymore one way or the other. I calmed down. smile.gif

...and realized how sad it was that I got so worked up over it in the first place.

Ultimately, you initiated the interaction with Das. As far as his response, right or wrong or sense of proportion...those aren't really things that factor in all that much these days. I'm not saying that in order to avoid being randomly attacked you have to do and say absolutely nothing to anyone else and have no interaction whatsoever. It might help though.
