Spiteful Toons

[SanderDolphin]

I was initially a bystander today in what I can only describe as an awfully spiteful toon.

I won't name names on the forum, but as soon as a 40LP Supertoon (with his 4 maxed out gags) came in, out came a barrage of 'Oh No', 'This is too risky for you', 'Please go away'... All from one toon.

I decided to get involved here, because it's getting too much for me. A Hollywood telling a 105LP toon to 'Please go away' must certainly cause confusion for some, but was adamant not to go onto the elevator with them. In the end, I managed to team up with 7 other toons who were quite excellent in their attempts.

Let's boycott these toons - they bring the good name of VP down!

i was there that 45 lfer toon is my friend he was probaly have a bad day did you go in the elevator? (My toon name is Dippy Rusty SuperMouth

[SanderDolphin]

think this was a different situation, at 1.30am East Coast time, 6.30am my time (BST)

The griefer was a 105LP toon. They did not join in on the elevator.

I felt a pity for the 40LP toon as he left (followed by a Mr Hollywood, so I presume they were together). I would have certainly enjoyed a match with them. Especially with those gags!

3 words, they were mean (the one who made them go away.)

She Died Though She Could Carry Hardly any gags and she was mad when she died i was the lvl 8 glad hander I'mma mover and Shaker Now w00t!

when we did win my computer was lagging realy bad it took like 1 hour just to load to vs vp

Too bad as you say. Those super noobs get the heart racing in vp fights. Thats a good one too. 40 LP.

Dont woory, im sure they do plenty of vp. I really do notice that from 100 to 105 toons seem to be pretty stressed. Gladly once he gets some experience he will see the error of his ways. Probably didnt even check the gags of the SN.

I ran the factory with you today if you are the toon SanderDolphin. There can't be that many.

It was a fun run.

I was playing with my 66 laffer in the Brrgh today. I had to laugh out loud. Myself and my friend were waiting for our other 2 friends to come back from getting gags when a level 1 gag 15 laffer came up. We politely told him it was too risky. He proceeds to tell us we stunk and for us to 'go away'. I thought that was pretty funny considering the fact that he was in the Brrgh.

Now, while we were waiting, he jumped off the curb and confronted a cog. I know it wasn't very nice of us, but we had just gagged up to do a 5 story building and he had been stinky to us. I just hope he enjoyed the brrg's snow flakes.

Were we wrong? We weren't mean to him, we just didn't help him.

Nope, not many. I have three SanderDolphin toons (two without a space, one with since they introduced the system of not being allowed to name a second toon the same).

Thanks for your comments. I've done dozens of factories today so forgive me if I don't remember the exact details of this run (5,500 merits are a pain in the preverbial!)

I have limitations myself, and a 15LP in TB is not on - or a teen toon in DDL. I don't mind taking some, but being 15LP means that they haven't finished the tutorial yet (since you become 16LP once you have) and have little to no comprehension of what to do. Saying that, I would (and have allowed similar toons) to join in, since I solo most of the time. History shows 99% will throw a little gag at a high cog, and bamb, get clobbered.

But it's allowing them the chance to join in that shows their strengths, or weaknesses. I went into a Factory this evening with a 101 and two under 50's. One under 50 disappeared just before the Warehouse (may have been bugged since I've seen a lot of toons get bugged in the Factory lately). The second constantly wanted to toot their way. In the Centre Silo, the 101 lured the cogs whilst I tooned up. The little toon decided to toot them! Wham, the little cog is now down to just 5LP. I lure the cogs whilst the 101 did pixie dust on me (probably getting fed up of the low LP toon). What does 'he' bring out? A piece of cake on the foreman! *******!

Can't say some of us don't try, but often they make bad choices which is probably why there is a culture of "This is too risky for you". Sometimes this is a wise comment, other times, it's a rash decision.

How right you are, Sander. The problem I have is that you cannot tell how a toon will play until you play with them. Some like to give them a chance, others like to lead everyone else a dance. I'm a chancer. Chancers and Dancers don't mix.

That's actually what I do, because the little toons know what they are getting themselves into (or at least I think they do). I'll help them if I need something to do, but I usually have something else on my mind. They got themselves into it, they can get themselves out.
