I am getting REALLY tired of being spammed these monster attacks

[Eluros]

Greetings,

So, don't you hate it when you want to explore/enjoy the world, and monsters attack you? There is so much to see, and time is precious. I think it's obvious that there needs to be a toggle for whether or not monsters attack you. Some people enjoy monsters attacking you, but most people would probably prefer them not, and it doesn't make sense for them to attack you if you don't want them to. It would really be much better if you could just turn off monster attacks.

It has already ruined Isengard for me, because I can't scour every brick of the place without being having to fight a troll or orc or something.

Some players might say that you need to deal with it, because only monsters within 5 (or so) levels attack you. Well, that's not good enough. The most exciting/newer areas, where all the people are, are almost always within 5 (or so) levels of you, and those are the areas where it's most important that you not be attacked. Wouldn't you rather have the ability to turn off monster attacks than get a new instance cluster in December?

If we must be subjected to these monster attacks, why not at least give us a deed for being hit by them?

i only wish there was an in-game report tool for them. i have told them repeatedly i do not want to be harassed with constant melee attacks. they refuse to listen.

Getting attacked by monsters interrupts my dancing.

[hex2323]

I don't mind the ranged attacks, but yeah the melee attacks interrupt when I gather flowers. Shouldn't there be an option for "I'm not a warroir, I just want to look at stuff" That makes monsters ignore you?

[Ayrolen]

But seriously. I lol'd.

Up until that sentence I was like "OMG, is he serious???"
Funny, I lol'ed a little on the inside....

You didn't just write that? You didn't think this was in any way a clever parody making a telling point? You did?

Man, that is so sad. My toes are curling up in embarrassment for you.

[Firemane0]

Guess who is getting reported.

Thanks; I feel so much better now. I gave you +Rep (really!) for helping me to see the light.

I'm sorry, everyone, for the embarrassment I've caused. Fishy sticks are on me.

[FittyBolger]

Pedantic...

[Nymphonic]

You people are forgetting one thing. The MRTAP(Monster's right to attack people) Union specifically states that people need to get hit within a certain radius or else the people have to serve the monsters tea and cookies. Page 456, paragraph 5, subsection 678.98. Look it up.

Wow, I totally forgot about that.

(And, drat. Too much rep given out in the last 24 hours. Clearly a conspiracy from the Anti-MRTAP Guild.)

Thank you for pointing out a problem I have had since my first lvl.

[Dotlbeme]

I have cheated since launch. I found I have this skill called 'Sneak'. Not many people know about it, it seems, but I can pretty much walk around unmolested by monsters (if I keep a moderate distance). Please don't report me to the GMs or the MRTAP union...

/reported for discussing game exploits on the forums!

[Phaedrah]

hahahahahahaaaaaaaaa

[Qhouri]

So YOU are the reason why there are nowhere smellable roses to be found. And I always blamed the orcs to decorate all the abandoned houses in their homesteads in memoriam of their brethren killed by more violent adventurers.

Spoiled sport!

The troll has been fed. . . .

I could not agree more! Just last night, a friend and I went into Draigoch's Lair, because we thought it'd be nice to get a sense of the feng shui of the place, you know, just out of curiosity.

Well, I was extremely annoyed when some overzealous dragon kept attacking us, I can tell you. We weren't there to cause trouble, after all. Turbine, let us deactivate monster attacks.

But it you want to leave the loot, that'd be ok.

Don't you think it'd be a better use of time to report someone who...I don't know...broke a rule?

He did write it. It was a clever parody. It did make a point. You didn't get it?

Man, that is so sad. My forehead is being covered by my hand in embarrassment for you.

[Blaize_EU]

This didn't half make me giggle

+rep!

I did get it thanks. It was just so feeble a response to the complaint about festival emotes, based as it is on a Fail Analogy. But I'm glad you're so easily amused. You must be living in Hollywood's new Golden Age.

Sadly, senses of humour cannot be purchased, only grown. Yours clearly needs some sunlight and fresh water. Lighten up a bit and stop trying to ruin others' friendly fun. If you don't enjoy it, you're free to go away. Or you're free to continue to be unpleasant and condescending, too - if you really feel that's a good choice.

DANG!! "You must spread some more reputation around.."
