Yesterday was very eventful in the persistent saga between the Potatoes and the Pale Riders. During the day I observed Conzole performing loot mule duties, making runs back and forth from Vybor to their base. I took the opportunity to figure out the direction of their base, and it was obvious that it was far south and west. After figuring that out I killed him for the first time that day, an easy kill as he stepped out of his truck.
Later on I logged in to help Prestige, who was playing the hero and delivering food to a starving Lank and his friend Jenny just outside of VMC. As Prestige entered the barn in which Lank was starving, and clearly stated over direct comm that he was delivering food, Conzole entered the barn and shot him while his inventory was up. What's that you say, a Pale Rider executing a non-threat as they deliver food to someone in need? Sounds a bit like hypocrisy to me.
I then stalked and killed Conzole, William Stone, and Mr. Wright (assumed to be with the Riders) as I guarded Prestige's gear for his return. He returned right around the same time Conzole made it back, only for us to easily dispatch him back to fresh status a third time.
Later that night when everyone was on, we went exploring. We found the Riders' tents on the south coast all the way west towards the end of the map. We assaulted their base and killed Zombie Dust, CoachB, and Kama without taking a single casualty. Overall a very successful raid, and quite easy I may add. The Riders don't do very well in PVP. We considered what to do with the items in their tents, but honestly there is just too much loot in the world right now and we did not need any of it other than the nice PSO-1 we took off Zombie Dust.
The moral of the story is that the Riders are no more "good guys" than anyone else - they are simply survivors who make decisions based on the current situation and previous experiences. Despite the fact that Irish likes to post dorky things like "Welcome from the good guys on the server" I think the community knows the truth.
Finally, if we are "badies" (not a word, btw) Irish, what does that make you since you are clearly inferior in one of the major aspects of this game - PVP combat. Quick, shoot back something condescending. I can't wait. We'd be glad to arrange a meeting at a neutral site with even numbers as well, if you have the balls. I highly doubt that you do.
