Hey all,
We have seen a lot of accusations, rants about ppl save camping and not showing decency in battle. Instead starting flame wars in the forums, why dont we find a new way to encourage decency and chivalry in battle. How about posting here when someone did an act of chivalry that you were impressed about and you want to commend it.
Yesterday, I was fighting one of the tiny herb battles which i cherish so much where a few ignis would defend herb against a horde of syrtis (albeit lower lvls). As is often the case we had no conju and I had to ride back to herb from samal save. Nimrod caught me on the horse and killed me (well my char ;)). With my fellow defenders being outnumbered i took the chance again and rode back. As fate would have it Nimrod saw me at the same place again and i was caught off guard again. He could have shot me but he didnt because with dizzy i wouldnt have any chance to defend myself. I dismounted out of panic with the dizzy still on, he just bowed and went on his way. I was certainly impressed by that gesture. I commend Nimrod for the RO Medal of Honour :)
I just hope I could return the gesture at some other place.
Hope we could make this a RO tradition. This would give something for those ppl who really want to play fair (not that they need something but still...).
PS: Btw, Nimrod, I am not sure whether you were running from our realmmates who were hunting you and just didnt want more hassles :) but anyway it was a bloody fine gesture and kudos to you !
