The Self-Affirming Dancer: Will go up against multiple opponents and lose, recon, /dance4, and talk endlessly about how no one can fight them 1v1 due to being 'terrified'. Grammatically woeful, and *CENSORED* proud of it. Also known as 'The Self-Affirming /Target /Laugh Purveyor'
The ROFL'er: Every death must be followed by a ROFL/LOL/LMAO in area chat, because there's no way that zerg is killing their spirit/you never would have won if it wasn't for your buddies, and they want you to know.
The Secret Best Player Ever Seen: Every death must be followed by a "Hmm." or "Okkkkk." Reconstruction comes after several minutes, as they attempt to figure out just how you exploited to beat them. May result in them asking you veiled questions about your build/buffs/clothing. Followed by:
The Serial CSR-Botherer: "I'm sick of your exploits."/"LOL stacks."/"YEAH, OK, 800DPS FOR AN EFK, THAT'S NORMALNNNNNNNNNNNGHHHHHHH."/"Beat me without 'sploits for once, LOL."
The Self-Exalting Delusional: Likes to think of themselves as a 'name' player, and therefore at the very apex of an invisible PvP and social hierarchy. Upon attacking this individual, you've instantly thrown tactics out the window as all you're doing is expressing your love and adoration for them, or harbouring a desire for 'relations'. "You really must love/want my male genitals, you derogatory and irresponsible term for homosexuals."
The Coward: Quite simply the representatives of the soft white underbelly of PvP. Part 'The Jumper', all coward. Runs at the first sign of anyone going near them (be it five or just one), their speedy exits a blur of whimpering surrender. Justifies their actions by claiming that no one can kill them. Their team quietly seethes as they're constantly left to die with one less player to combat the opposition. Often completely devoid of tactical awareness. Impressing no one.
The Sure Thing: Will only fight against, (and quite often duel) builds which they are statistically pre-disposed to winning against. MKT vs Gunmen, for example. Turns down duels with any other build, struts around Mara C in a mood when inevitably beating mostly full-time RP'ers. Hides in sneak in PvP, returns to sneak the second Staggering has been dispatched.
The Hope: A rare breed. Fights with a sense of honour, cares about the manner in which they conduct themselves, as they would off the game. Doesn't use the oft-used "It's just the Internet," excuse to be a derriere, and rarely resorts to verbally expressing an inane hatred of their 'death-dealer'. Knows the game, knows their trees and how to use/counter each one. Successful in terms of PvP prowess, but not usually well-known as their CQ-counts don't necessarily govern their motivation, or erections.
I could quite possibly go on all day.





I could quite possibly go on all day.I openly encourage you to do so Sir.

Has anyone ever thought about how boring MxO would be without the Hyperjumping mechanic? It's annoying when someone bases their entire PvP strategy on the move, but I think that the mechanic itself makes PvP in MxO worth anything at all.
After dealing with it for so long, you're going to eventually find ways to counter the problem. Looking back on years and years of protest about hyperjumping in PvP, I'm dissapointed that we're not already past that point.

Well, if you are boring to be sniped, do like your organization, press the hyperjump button
. Personnally, I stopped doing it three months ago. Sneak ability is more efficient to escape and strike back enemies. Plus it's pleasant to watch machine airshows from the bridge (I must admit, they own this subject).

I couldn't give a rats left nut if you jump or not. My comment about you originally was about you sniping me on a regular basis, and on one occasion telling me where you wanted to put your 'bullet'. Only the way it was phrased, I didn't know if you were talking about shooting me, or if you were flirting with me.

Lol, Ednix commenting on other people HJing! Whatever you say Ed, lmao. Besides, Zion puts on an equally impressive display of air prowess when the situation warrants it. Merv's not quite so, but thats really due to lack of numbers at the moment.
But Ed, why the need to Snipe if you can kill people by just blinking at them?
I don't see you in mara enough to comment on Ednix's hyperjumping..
I was going to make the same remark.

Hm...
If I've well understood what you'd said, you complain because I often snipe you. You form a wrong idea. The only thing I attack on a regular basis is Machines and in the latest news, you're machine, right?

What do you want me to say her, Gerik?
That she should wipe out with a cloth her computer' screen instead of talking s**t? Beside I wonder why she has a grudge against me...

Yes... and by regularly sniping Machines, you'll be regularly sniping me... and thus you'll be sniping me on a regular basis.


Is there s stereotype for the returning player that was never that big on pvp but wants to get into it and needs to figure out how to use their load etc?

Don't know if this one has a name yet or not, but I find it really annoying when someone goes into Master Shadow stealth mode and then has the nerve to start complaining wihen no one will flag for PvP...

The Duelling Fan
This person will always shows up for PvP when there is mass PvP in play. Once flagged he will be treated to ganking from anyone (Flagged or Unflagged) Merovingian or Machine. Then stakes the claim that he/she can beat anyone who is flagged in a one or one duel but IF this occurs he usually gets beat down badly and then claim that he had:
Amongst other complaint he/she then proceeds to log off for the night but not before calling everyone cheats/stackers/nerds/losers and then wonders why earlier he/she got truce ganked for being annoying.
All in all people like this have most of Mara in stiches 
the 'new loadout' whiner...
Someone who complains about not being able to hit anything, and when they're asked why they blame everything from a new loadout to a new set of clothes...

MISSIONMAN!!!!!!!!!!!
By the way, i'm all of those insults x 3 apparantly.
That doesn't really bother me too much, in fact the dps of the sneak attacks that get a spy into IL are ok too, it's just the general accuracy of an MKT, the power of their attacks from sneak which don't cause him/her to go into IL and some of the states on their abilities are too long imo.

everyone i know to have use MKT ot had a scrap agains do this tactic...this is what you do as a mkt. your not suppose to be going gun ho and trying to IL everyone.
only time you IL is when you trying to punt/suplex someone, then you finish them off

Wrong.

The phrase "breaking sneak to use Staggering Throw" was actually the least important part of that stereotype.

If that's so true, why do MKTs roll against me so easily in interlock without having to use a hybrid load?

whats wrong about it?
anytime i've seen you as MKT, you root, try break sheild and do some pansy back flips and suplex...dont think i ever seen you break sheild to just straight IL someone.
"If that's so true, why do MKTs roll against me so easily in interlock without having to use a hybrid load?"
dont get me wrong, you can IL someone and prob just do as well, but it kinda takes the fun out of trying to punt someone into the sky

It's all about priorities. If you can deal more damage from out of interlock compared to another class, then you stay out of interlock. If my teammate is a Hacker, another MKT, Rifleman, etc - I'll take point in interlock because it's more efficient.
There is nothing in the MKT doctrine that says that you have to jump, run, and play like a genuine pansy in order to get a kill.

Totally.

It's the ONE-TRICK PWNYs that make the rest of the MKTs look bad as well as the "OMG U SHOT AT MEH/BROKE MAH SHIELD, CTRL+SPACE". As an avid MKT player, I try to avoid those stereotypes at all costs. There are many ways to kill a player outside of the norm and it's fun creating new techniques. Sometimes they work, sometimes they fail. Real MKTs stick to their knives no matter what. The rest...just find another tree.
BTW: lmao @ 500~ dmg Staggering Throws XD

This type of PvPer likes the comfort and security of stashing a recaller inside a nearby building. At the moment they are attacked they are whisked away back to the Enterprise only to return later healed, re-buffed and ready to go where no man has gone before. This type is very similar to the Houdini and Clean Getaway types in that while they do get away, it only serves to lighten the zerg every time.
