ZeroBars [2918513] ×1

AngelCakes [3151442]

ZeroBars [2918513] has been attacking me nonstop daily for 6 months. They use all their bounties on me. I don't know why they persist but I'm just a beginner and they have made this game difficult to play. I just wanna race cars and do missions. How do I get them to leave me alone already? I tried ignoring them for months, fighting back, talking to them, but they are relentless. I don't even know what this game is without being in the hospital all day and spending everything on first aid kits.

This thread won't do you any favors. People like this do this because have no life and they get their own satisfaction from creating dissatisfaction in others. This thread proves they are getting to you. There's clearly a reason why he keeps doing it. And from past experiences I promise you there are two sides to every story. 

 

What have YOU been doing to incite this extremely lengthy aggression from them? 

 

Side Note: You've been attacked 181 times, meaning around 1 attack a day for 6 months, that's not a lot of trouble to use meds to get out of the hospital and play.

Shooby [2510470]

The real question is what did you do to provoke them? 9/10 you're not just randomly targeted by someone and harassed for 6 months. There's part of this story you're conveniently leaving out and it's probably also the solution to your problem moving forward.

SporkMonkey [2065017]

What did you do to make them come after you for 6 months? What are you leaving out?

 

I guarantee you know "why they persist."

 

Hopefully ZeroBars will chime in.

 

Edit:

I'm sure this is part of it.

 

I will send ZeroBars a link to this to get him to chime in.

They're quite weak, just keep training and you will outstat them easily.

 

Or, you could get rid of the noobtrap and join an actual faction where you'd get help and be able to gain stats faster.

 

Anyway, seeing as you co-lead a noobtrap, I for one applaud the bully for their selfless service to Torn.

CHINGADERA [2270005]

Start by dropping that shit faction that's doing nothing for you, making zero dollars. Why do people jump in this game and regularly just start a faction? There's zero benefit to having a trash bag for a home.

Ohadik [424017] Wiki Contributor

The most comical thing about the faction is they have been there for 200+ days and 

 

  • Best chain: 0

 

What is that faction supposed to be anyway? A retirement home for inactive players? Outside of their Top 3, their bottom 4 have been inactive for 150+ days. What a dump haha.

WhackedMaki [2587660]

You average 1.2 losses a day over the past 3 months, up to 2.4 over the past month. I don't think that your problem is nearly as severe as you are making it out to be. That's not even an inconvenience to gameplay, just use some meds and continue on your way.

Beerson [1576144]

A noob trap.

Trap the noob, ruin their experience at the start of the game so that they quit an never come back, get left with 100d+ inactive ghosts to make it look like you have members because you can't get enough stupid people to fill the trap.

MaxHeadRoom [1429645]

lots more to this me thinks....

 

newb dramaqueens crying...

 

are $1 bounties anything to get bent outa shape about?

 

 

Viciously_Grim [2752611]

Once a day is OP is on their chain list. Get better stats and OP will get off it... Unless of course the better stats give better respect 🤷‍♀️

 

OP you're in a faction. This is a question for your leadership, not the forums. And if your leadership makes it worse, find a new faction.

 

I have never had a griefer keep griefing my noobs after talking with the person.  Even had someone apologize for blasting through the faction when we were trying to lose a war. I even offered to not be upset if they kept my littles on their chain list after war.  Haven't seen any new attacks from the person since then.

 

It's not like it's hard to figure out why someone is upset with my littles and fix the issue.  Sometimes it's random, sometimes my littles did something dumb.  Whatever happened, it's fixable.  But going to the forums and dropping the name is just gonna get you free defends/mugs.

Asenix [3049293]

The forum is the wrong place for this.
Despite all the "ditch the noobtrap faction" (which will not resolve your issue)
You could just start playing this game.
You are not even level 15 and never took drugs.
I recommend you start chugging those xanax. your "bully" is super weak.
If you commit to the game you need about 1 month to catch up to him. Another month to bully him in return.

Torn is a game about fighting, crimes and drugs. You're doing none of it.

Edit: He probably thinks you're an inactive since you played 1 hour 30 in the past month...

sheep [193889]

Ignore them completely,  no mssgs, bounties, forum post etc, and hope they stop. Engaging with bullies is what they are looking for. You can't reason with them.

If he's got you on block, and still carrying on for 6 months straight then it's back to what I had originally said:

 

People like this do this because have no life and they get their own satisfaction from creating dissatisfaction in others.

 

Like SporkMonkey, I also had mailed him to see if we could get a response, I got no reply, and he's not commenting here either, so clearly he doesn't wish to give a reason, or he literally has no reason. He's 470 days old and appears to have been attacking players with all of his energy since day 1. Over 4500 attacks. What this tells me is that his stats have to be really really bad. If he keeps carrying on like this you can very easily pass him in stats and overtake him. Then he'll be out of your hair forever. 

 

To do that tho, you need to make some changes to your playstyle. Logging in once a day isn't going to cut it anymore for you. And you should look at dropping that Noob Trap faction of yours and joining an established faction. This game is far more enjoyable when you're surrounded by 80-100 other people that are all active, lively, and talkative. 

 

If you can do that, you'll start making money, something that you have very little of it appears, and with that money you can buy yourself out of your current situation.

pussy [2797641]

1 week with some xanax or 6-8h activity and candy in the gym, easy way to outstat that guy

 

theyre close to the same stats, so you could literally whore def or something and he would stop from all the losses he gets trying to attack

 

nothing to it really - if they had a good faction they would get help for it though :(
