I enjoy small dogfights or 1 v 1 as much as anyone, which is why I go to the DA more and more. But to say a slasher making a one and run attack is illegitimate stretches things. He vulched the field. Not the most sporting of things to do, but... Unless we are going to have referees then to each his own. For such a great fight three vulches is a tiny fraction.

I appreciate your thoughts on this. Something you don't seem to be grasping is my post isn't about the specific "act", but a general condition in the game that we all face. I could sight several other acts that many refer to a "dweebish", but that is useless because people are focusing at a micro level, I suggest we look at this at a macro level.
As a community in this game, we are provided a blank canvas and a color pallet to make of the game what we want. We may not have all the colors we want, but in the end it's up to us to decide what is acceptable, and not acceptable behavior in the game. We don't need and shouldn't have an assigned "referee", we should ALL be referee's.
When I first started playing, I did some things that would upset my fellow players. Was in intentional, no, but it happened anyway. I was politely (and not so politely) informed that what I was doing was not acceptable, so I changed. As I grew in the game I realized why these things were not acceptable and I shared what I learned with others. I feel if the
players help those who play in an unacceptable fashion change, we will all benefit.
Sure, HTC can make some changes to control or outright stop specific behaviors (kill shooter for example), but I really feel it's up to us to squash "dweebery". Please don't get so hung up on what prompted this post, open your mind to the concept I am trying to convey.
