Wooo boy, I can tell you learned that lesson first hand from me. Now the real trick is to apply it to people who are bigger than you. That's how you'll earn respect. Punking traders is only a notch above Empaths - barely however in your case, I noticed you seem to have trouble with Empaths so when in doubt step down the ladder a rung and take out the next easiest target.

Since you seem to have forgotten how things happened, here is a reminder Stolas.

Czrethh came out of an ornate doorway.
Czrethh asks, "hows it going?"
An Elothean table monger walks in, carrying a small ledger.
Stolas reveals himself.
Stolas gestures at you.
You feel oddly in sync with Stolas for a moment.
>smi
You smile.
Your mind hears Kolaisa thinking, "No bad wine. My new master simply asked to me announce a few lines of poetry."
>say slow.
You say, "slow."
>frown stol
You frown at Stolas.
Stolas stretches his arms.
>say why are you cating on me?
You ask, "why are you cating on me?"
Stolas says, "No need to frown."
Stolas says, "Well, I was going to see if you would throw me out of the tent again."
>look stola
You see Shadowmancer Stolas Ari'uhn, Legendary Moon Mage of the Progeny, an Elothean.
A protective cage of black lines surrounds Stolas. The lines are thin and crazed, creating the illusion that he is a broken glass sculpture.

You cannot make out his features with the clothing he is wearing.
He is in good shape.

He is wearing some superb shalswar-hide boots, a superb blight-ogre harness, a chain balaclava, a braided spidersilk satchel, an elegant spidersilk traveler's backpack, a shadowy black mage's robe shot through with silver and red threads, some mail gloves and a skull-beaded hooded nightsilk cloak stitched with a scarlet bat-winged skull.
>say I cant throw you out of the tent, i have no idea what you are talking about.
You say, "I cant throw you out of the tent, i have no idea what you are talking about."
>say Are you always delusional?
You ask, "Are you always delusional?"
An Elothean table monger wanders northeast as he counts his tables.
Stolas squints at you.
Stolas asks, "Are you always so mouthy?"
>say yes
You say, "yes"
>lean marty
You fold your arms across your chest.
An Elothean table monger walks in, carrying a small ledger.
Stolas chuckles.
Your mind hears Kolaisa thinking, "What good is a fundraiser without a few party crashers"
Shadowmancer Stolas went into an ornate doorway.

There was no prior gweth banter in Shard, Stolas just came into the Market and cast a spell on Marty and started accusing her of doing something that she couldnt have done based upon market tent mechanics. I said it before and i will say it again, welcome to la la land Population: Stolas.

If that is still not proof enough, I have the entire unedited log. Down to Marty borringly appraising her swappy knife and studying her compendium and retagging all her wares to Dokoras from kronars. I hate to bore, but well I also hate to be called a liar.

Re: Barbie talk 07/07/2008 11:34 AM CDT
A couple of things

1) being a Rippentrop has nothing to do with what happened unless that is your reasoning for harrassing Martyka
2) Martyka isn't high enough circle to evict you from the market tent

the lessons you state in your post #3147 you should take heed of yourself..
>>do not keep talking trash to someone who can mop the floor with you. Especially when that person repeatedly tells you what will happen if you keep running your mouth<<

>>If the abuser has been reasonably warned to cease their behavior, and they continue with said actions, then they are giving their target consent<<

>>Any statement, emote or action used in a negative manner against another player has the potential to be considered consent, especially when it is deliberately used to goad the target into a physical encounter<<

I've noticed Stolas uses these alot himself on the gweth goading others

You will notice in those rules that it does not say that the one warning you to back off has to be bonded to whoever you're fighting (physically or otherwise). Now I'd love to hear GM feedback on this one in particular since a GM once advised that plenty of warning must be given of 'stop or else' from whoever got involved even if not bonded.

Kolaisa did not get me, his buddy Mazrian did. Though Kolaisa did talk a lot of trash before I came and killed him. I do have to admit Kola did hit me a few times with his broadsword ... good job. Way to soften me up for the real killer to go to work.

Like I have always said Rippentrops never fight by themselves they always have a gang to help them out.

I do not think you have to be a member of any particular group to be the kind of person that only fights with backup. I do not know if that is what he did or not, just a fact. For instance, people never usually bother me, but yesterday some guy started attacking (I don't know policy really, but I don't think he had consent, whatever though). He got attacked by someone else and mentioned reporting him. Funny. But after he had failed to attack twice, I went ahead and killed him, and immediately he had two friends attacking me and a couple more circling around. Five on one, really? Then one of those friends called me the coward for not fighting while his friends were waiting to pounce. Some people, sheesh. I think they got bored and left though without ever killing me, and I don't really have a reason to keep it going. Other than their moon mage continuing to locate me today, they haven't come back. For future reference, how do we beat Aether Cloak if they're not sharing harness? Just fry nerves and wait?

I should just make the Rippentropps a true crime family. We're certainly notorious enough. I just need to wear some fancy suits and act like I really did put into action every single thing we are blamed for. I just snap my fingers and my goons go to work.

Two conflict threads crying about the Rippentropp family. Two conflicts involving zero Rippentropps.

You folks need to learn to LOOK at the people you interact with before talking about something you think you know.

Hell, Jhime killed Kolaisa last weekend.

But then again maybe I should just start taking credit for it all like I said.

No I came after you because you were Riftal Summonsing a kind lady trader friend of mine who has given me about 1000 plat worth of gear, gweths and items.

And Jhime wasn't there. It was in Shard. Leucius even temporarily lifted my ban from within the city walls temporarily and nobody argued because you were involved.

Seriously, why do you lie? Or is it that you just have an extremely warped sense of reality?

Well, yes, the Rippentropp family consists of a bunch of people that happen to be friends with each other IC and OOC. As such, we also happen to hang out in the same places.

But the number of Rippentropps there are doesn't even come close to beating out how many people come hang out in IRC on a given day, much less how many people read and post on SC.

There's overlap, but if you think SCer == ISTMer == Rippentropp, you're sorely mistaken.

I was there? I don't remember what you're talking about or even which Rippentropp.

I've actually only seen you a few times IG. I certainly hear your name a lot, but I really have only come across Stolas 4 or 5 times ever and that is usually when i'm down in Shard.

My point was just to not assume everyone that may not like Stolas is a Rippentropp. Pretty simple. I only bring that up, because you threw the name around today and didn't even deal with any. I wasn't trying to throw myself into the ring with you so you don't need to start with the quips.

For the record though Kolaisa is hardly needed to defend some Rippentropps if it ever did actually come down to that. I can't really tell you why he is doing whatever he is other than I know you two have a history of conflict.
