what do they mean 'FRIENDLY'

[Macdeth 176]

When I hear the words friendly in direct chat it can only mean one of 3 things

 

1- they are scared

2- they are attempting to lull me into a false sense of security

3- they think DayZ is a social networking app

 

here is how I respond to each instance in turn.

 

Fear in others always provokes an attack from me, always has and always will as, like most red blooded males I despise weakness in others.

Trying to mug me off winds me up even more, it insults my intellect and enrages the beast within.

I am not looking for friendship when I'm in any game let alone this game, we are in competition you and I,  for resources and survival and I will not hesitate before ending you.

 

and I'm not alone in feeling this way, my clanmates all say the same thing, the word friendly incites only contempt and is viewed as an instruction to shoot.

 

So, if you meet another player in game for gods sake do not use that word, it will get you killed. And when it does get you killed, don't complain about it, it's your fault.

Take a long hard look at yourself and the reasons this thing keeps happening to you. and SNAP OUT OF IT.

 

Try using your imagination, for example I am a lot less likely to kill somebody who makes me laugh or gets me thinking.

 

so think about that, comments welcome.

Stop trying to appear tough, we don't care whether or not you shoot people who would just like to survive with some help.

 

Pointless thread.

 

Your avatar does not impress us either.

No one cares.

I, like you, show contempt for the weak.

 

In this harsh world only the strong can survive, there is no room for hesitation nor mercy.

 

With pin-point accuracy the bullets will exit my gun and bless the world with the demise of the fallen. 

 

I have my eyes set on the goal, if you or your friends stand between me and my goal you will be terminated.

and what may I ask are you contributing towards this topic?

Besides your hollow masquerade as a moderator.

I think the OP speaks perfect sense, I too react badly to this word friendly, which so many players seem to weild as some kind of magic incantation which shall protect them from harm.

Ahhh, the good old 'Friendly' card.

 

It's a staple of DayZ.

It's March 2012 again... MY TIME MACHINE, IT WORKS!

 

Oh no, it's just one of these topics. Again...

 

EDIT: Someone quite rightly pointed out that I should probably have explained my reasoning for locking this topic and here it is...
