Question about new EV, stealthers and ethics
Hi all, I'm about to sub back and got this itch to take my stealther to 50. He is low RR so solo fights are out of the question atm, my plan was to tower camp for a while, try to learn the class and grab a few rps on the way.
However I'm reading about the new port changes to EV and it seems to be considered as an exclusive 8v8 zone right now (please correct me if I'm wrong). I know DAoC has this non-written fair play code where some actions are considered unethic and may annoy other people, so I'm honestly asking:
If I'm wandering around EV and I see two groups fighting, then I choose to jump in, will this be seen as rude and intrusive by others? Or is this a common occurence for stealthers? If it is and other realms do the same, I'm happy to join the fun and help win the fight, but if it's not then I'm staying away since I don't want to ruin other's fun.
Sorry for my poor english! And thanks for reading my dilemma:)

However, don't be surprised if both groups stop fighting to kill you, then re-engage to continue. And that is even if one of the groups is from your own realm.
Some stealth zergers just can't understand that some groups value fair competitive fights over realm loyalty.
See you all at the frontiers:)
But like shoke said, you will have to learn the group you can add on and the groups you shouldnt add on. because they may stop the fight to kill you
Indeed, I'm going to agree with Seamuss where nearly everyone playing today has very, very high RR. If you plan to start from scratch, I heartily recommend you: bring friends!
lol when this game came out in 2001 My guiild was using out of game comms. We used Roger Wilco until TS started.

so were you the first irc guild
Generally groups will be fighting in the plains, so it's probably kind to be sensitive to this just as you wouldn't roll over solos seeking that gameplay style in the bowtowns.
On one hand you can argue that in open RvR and you can do whatever you want. On the other hand, acting in a manner just to spoil other's gameplay and cause maximum harm has sadistic overtones.
