Rudeness in SVSing

[thefadedrose]

Ok, I had something happen last night while SVSing. I guess I better tell the whole story so everyone can understand the circumstances. While SVSing with my guildmaster we got hit pretty bad, the lag on there is horrible but nonetheless we headed out to sea for repairs. And of course one of the two ships that hit us followed us, one gave up and turned back and the other continued what seemed like forever but he too gave up.

We finished repairs and headed back into battle. We were battling a ship when another came up behind us and sank us. Really no big deal, was fair and square. So we pop back up in our bubble then all of a sudden in privateer chat this pirate came on mocking us by saying we were pansies, bragging on how he took us down with no crew, that we were chickens by heading out to sea, that we were losers, how he didnt need the gold for he was topped out, etc., etc. I think you get the gist of the idea of what took place.

My GM was getting mad and I tried to calm him. Told him we shouldnt lower our standards to his level by making remarks back. I finally left cause this guy was really, really belligerant. And no, I couldnt report him because he was hiding and had switched sides so we couldnt find him then he suddenly logged. Anways, I went on Disney to look this guy up and guess what? He is a level 40 pirate and he is an officer in his guild (a good size guild too). I take guilds very seriously and as being an officer myself we should hold ourselves to a higher standard. We are all out there to fight the fight but as an officer we are there to help others as well. And for a mastered pirate to come along and to have this kind of behavior is just wrong. If my guildmaster caught me or anyone else in our guild behaving in this manner we would probably be booted out. And if anyone is thinking this was a kid? I asked and he said he wasnt and I did tell him then quit acting like one. And one more thing, lol, I did lose my temper and said he was an idiot before I tp'd off the ship for land because by that point I had enough.

Now my question is this......am I wrong in expecting a mastered pirate and an officer at that to hold themselves to a higher standard and not stoop to this type of behavior? Kani of Spartan Ellite
