Operative 1174 Uuali True Companion Planetary Requisitions 1	Posted - 2016.02.21 22:05:00 - [38] - Quote Press Attache wrote: Alena Asakura wrote: Himiko Kuronaga wrote: This is the original term in regards to gaming. http://www.sirlin.net/ptw-book/introducingthe-scrub It is loosely defined as an individual who entraps themselves inside of a mental barrier of excuses whenever they lose, instead of assessing with they did wrong and how they can improve. To be called a scrub is not necessarily insult, but more of a direct classification of where they are mentally in regards to competition. Almost everyone starts at scrub status and, with luck, happens upon a breaking point where they become self-aware of the condition and break out of it. Of course, the current generation of gamers has no sense of history in regards to the word so they use it blindly as an insult with no meaning. That's not my definition of a scrub. To me a scrub is a disgusting exploit player that will do anything to win. CCP has either accidentally or deliberately put certain things in the game that are "supposed" to be for one purpose but are used as exploits to gain advantage in the game, fostering FOTM followers. An almost perfect example is the jumpy myofibs. They were supposedly meant to allow people to jump on top of things rather than use a dropship. If you believe that, I have a bridge to sell you over a swamp. There is no way that CCP would not have known that this would be exploited by all sorts of really obnoxious characters that will find a way to use it for advantage. And so it is, that heavies with mass drivers and assaults with shotguns are gaining ridiculously unbelievable advantage, which simply cannot be countered. CCP has fostered these scrubs. Someone at CCP seems to really like messing up games like EvE and Dust, interfering with the mechanics and creating the very FOTM garbage they say they want to avoid. To me, scrubs are the lowest of the low - dirty players that will do anything to win and follow whatever FOTM is currently fulfilling that desire in all their fellow scrubs. I refuse to play that game, and it makes this game so much harder for me, but I would stop playing rather than participate. Luckily THIS game is finished and I won't have to put up with this for much longer. Spoken like a true scrub. Myos are bad because they kill you. "Real" skill means not using jump mods. You don't have to play a game with rules you don't like. But when you make up your own rules and get mad at people who don't recognize your own rule set then you are a scrub. This to me is also the very definition of a scrub; a player who will defend a bad mechanic as if it is set in stone. Rules? Myo jumping was a late addition to a dying game that was thrown in without any real plan to follow up on that element. This was done after he maps were redesigned to already limit things already in the game like sniper LoS etc. the maps did not get redesigned to accomodate this new mechanic. What's more is at myo jumping isa cheap and easy addition that circumvents other, more engaging gameplay. A game will suffer under this mentality of dismissing a game element because you simply think others are complaining due to character death. No, there are those of us who are obviously looking beyond our own k/dr to the overall game design. It's like throwing a kitten into amgroup of children hyped up on espresso. You d*mn well know what they're going to gravitate to. Might as well just shut down the amusement park when that happens.

Breakin Stuff Goonfeet Special Planetary Emergency Response Group 12	Posted - 2016.02.21 22:10:00 - [40] - Quote The definition of scrub is that Breakin Stuff guy. He's a Scrublord. On a more serious note, I call everyone a scrub, but the real ones are the ones who don't ever lose because they got outplayed, or out-tactic'd. If you pull away all of the gimmick fits and clearly whacked stuff, they're the ones who in a perfectly balanced game will claim that every death they have earned is because the other guys are cheating, the other gear is unfairly superior, squad gangups are inherently unfair, etc. Anything to avoid admitting they might have done something stupid and paid the price for it, or admitting their opponent might actually be... you know... good at the game?

Battle leavers - there are some situations where leaving the battle is the only option acceptable to the player concerned. I myself am a perpetual solo player. There are some matches where leaving the match is my statement of disgust at the scrubbery of the red players. RE Scouts are certainly scrubs, add to that jumpy RE heavies. This game has just gotten ridiculous. So according to you & toomany, me, as an RE scout, is a scrub. But according to Himiko and Babershop and linky I'm free/properly bastardly. Yeah starting to like where this thread is going. Cause reasons. Please do tell I'm getting curious. What you use are exploits, pure and simple. Yes, that makes you a scrub by my definition. Anyone who deliberately persistently uses exploits is a scrub. Don't tell me that RE Scouts are a valid entity in the game. They are dirty scum because of how they fight, which is to not fight at all. Rather, they're just cowards. Yes CCP has allowed this in the game, more to their shame. But people who actually stoop to using it and all other such cowardly contrivances are scum.

For the record, I have no problem with people using whatever gear they want, and can fit. The problem I have is not with those people but with the way CCP creates matches which are unbalanced and tend to put all such people on the one team. Those people tend to squad and matchmaking puts all the squads together on the one team first before starting to fill the other team with them. This is presumably to allow squads to team up together. Whatever the reason, the result is one side with squads full of proto gear and well organised, against the other side with usually solos and noobs. How anyone can say that's a balanced or enjoyable battle, I don't know! Even if as a solo I find myself filling a hole in the stomper side, it's a very unenjoyable experience because I simply don't get any targets before someone else takes them out. There is nothing wrong with proto gear. I myself am working towards it. The problem is the battles.

In fact, your doggedness in your reply if proof of what Himoko says, if you subscribe to Himoko's definition of "scrub". It's not my definition. It's THE definition. The very origin of the word in the context of gaming as coined by Sirlin back in the arcade era. Credit where credit is due, I didn't create the term. I just know its meaning, and how people improperly use it as an insult. Yes, they do improperly use it as an insult. Unfortunately, this is the way people will understand the use of the word. I have my own definition of scrub because I do think of it as an insult, but don't ascribe to the way people use it indiscriminately for anyone they don't like.

Battle leavers - there are some situations where leaving the battle is the only option acceptable to the player concerned. I myself am a perpetual solo player. There are some matches where leaving the match is my statement of disgust at the scrubbery of the red players. RE Scouts are certainly scrubs, add to that jumpy RE heavies. This game has just gotten ridiculous. So according to you & toomany, me, as an RE scout, is a scrub. But according to Himiko and Babershop and linky I'm free/properly bastardly. Yeah starting to like where this thread is going. Cause reasons. Please do tell I'm getting curious. What you use are exploits, pure and simple. Yes, that makes you a scrub by my definition. Anyone who deliberately persistently uses exploits is a scrub. Don't tell me that RE Scouts are a valid entity in the game. They are dirty scum because of how they fight, which is to not fight at all. Rather, they're just cowards. Yes CCP has allowed this in the game, more to their shame. But people who actually stoop to using it and all other such cowardly contrivances are scum. I wanted to point this out too, i have my own rules when i use certain things so in a way im a prisoner too. I don't find anything wrong with using REs, unless it breaks my very small, but still have, rules. 1) Won't use REs on a single target, REs are for groups and objectives 2) Only use REs on a single target if that person is hacking a letter that i cant reach in time So in a PC, we need to hack a point in city, 2 in 2 out, we each have 2, 1 in 1 out, were about even, but to increase winning chances, we need this point. Group of sents, logis, need to be cleared out/distracted to get a speedhack in, K. What do i do as a PC scout? I could try shotgunning them all, but people know that sound, second that first shot goes off someones turning jumping away and firing. OK, so i could try knife, quieter, more damage, but, my knives don't work in PC usually. Blue shield flare, no damage, people turning jumping away and firing. So what do i do? Toss a RE maybe two with a flux, clear them or most of them out along with 20 uplinks that are placed. We now have an opening to hack and dig in as i call it to defend the hack. 3 outta four letters, let them have there HP but don't let them have access to the city, our HP is secure, there locked out, now they have to try a different tactic. Blah blah blah etc etc. Another self prison, MAs with bons & REs take over scout role. Usually if a scouts job is needed, send in a MA to do it better. To me, thats stupid and scrublike, making me a scrub i guess. Feel fortunate that my corp uses me in PCs as a scout when an assault or an officer scout will do it better blah blah at least before i got sick and haven't been on. I could go on on the way my self prisoner mind thinks were REs are and aren't acceptable but i don't feel like it, and i gave one tiny slice of being a PC bastard.

I'm not gonna waste my time blasting through 1400ehp on some sentinel with only a scrambler pistol. I'm gonna scoot on by,drop the re,and splatter him against the wall then hack the point.

Don't forget re point traps when your team is all rushing another point and can't defend another point. Or when there's an unattended enemy vehicle that needs to go kaboom. Or planting them in a common choke point where foot/vehicle traffic is high. Or the infamous equipment remote explosive sandwich trap. All good uses. KNEEL!,BEFORE THE EMPIRE,KNEEL!
