This is SO Infuriating
 
Don't you find it irritating when you just traded a high rune and it poofs just before you try to make your runeword?

Don't you find it annoying and you join a duel game and everyone hates you because you FoH and smite?

Don't you find it stupid when people tell you smite is not melee? Look for the definition of melee in a fucking dictionnary and tell me smite is not melee after.

Don't you find it stupid that everyone on b.net is trying to scam you or rip you off in a trade?

Anyways, you don't need to read this, i just needed to unload what was on my mind.

yes i find it irritating and annoying and stupid and infuriating

celaron 2004-07-02 09:03 AM

well, botting cheating hacking also destroys the game....
wasnt it funnier all legit, with no really uber items..
and if u find one, after some years playing, that was a gr8 time ....

Smite, by the definitions of the dictionary would be melee, but not for most PvP purposes, as it is unblockable and requires no attack roll (2 qualities that make it similar to spells).

They hate FoH and Smite because they don't bother to find a way to counter them, they'd rather bitch and not duel you. I tell them too bad, unless it's a 'Melee Duel' game, in which I will only duel people who want to.

ExT 2004-07-02 09:14 AM

I'll ask you what i ask everyone that tells me smite is not melee. If smite is not melee, then what is it?

Vollstrecker 2004-07-02 09:16 AM

Think of it as a skill like 'Inferno'. Inferno is unblockable, has a very short range, and requires no attack roll.

Same with Charged Strike. They're kind of Hybrid skills.

Sovereign 2004-07-02 09:17 AM

Iunno, but I wanna know why WW is never considered melee -.- .

Vollstrecker 2004-07-02 09:20 AM

Melee is typically interpreted as standing toe-to-toe hacking away at each other.

ExT 2004-07-02 09:20 AM

Smite relies on IAS which is a quality that makes it more similar to melee than a spell, and it's also a hand-to-hand style of fighting. But sure i'll think of smite as a "hybrid" skill.

And smite is also "standing toe-to-toe hacking away at each other".

Sovereign 2004-07-02 09:22 AM

Yeah, but IAS is just like FCR. Just for different things.....

ExT 2004-07-02 09:25 AM

IAS = Increase "Attack" speed = MELEE
FCR = Faster "Cast" rate = long range or spell casting or anything along those lines.

Sovereign 2004-07-02 09:27 AM

But it's the same thing. Just different names. A spell is still an attack.

Am I sounding crazy? I got really hammered last night and I think I still might not be thinking straight.

Right, but it still requires no attack roll and cannot be blocked, making it like a spell.

Also, the knockback and stun is not looked upon favorably either.

ExT 2004-07-02 09:31 AM

You're not thinking straight :D

I'm still trying to make my point that smite is a form of melee.

Then should Berserk be considered melee? It deals magic damage. Sure smite doesn't requires attack roll nor can be blocked but it needs IAS and spells needs FCR.

Ext you getting pwn here, also if you said IAS = melee, bow = pwn pwn pwn?
Now we got IAS out of the way what else you can prove smite is melee? Hand to Hand? right, do you consider lighting zon to be melee? they are hand to hand, but they don't need Ar, nor blocking will work on them. After all these discusion, we prove that smite != Melee.

Anyway about high rune poof, if there never dupe, you will never get the high rune at the first place, now I learn that ladder is all nub and pussy, after the ladder reset i will stay at non ladder cuz it ownz, and there are actually palapk!

Are you trying to say that smite is melee or smite is not melee?

Do you need me to teach you how to type correctly? Because I don't think "own" is typed "pwn".

WetWired 2004-07-02 03:03 PM

!= operator:
Returns true when the two operands are not equal, and false when the two operands are equal. Note that a floating point value of NaN (not a number) never equals itself.

Ganga 2004-07-02 03:13 PM

!= is !(.equals) is Not equals, you need some basic computer skill need me to teach you?

since when I type pwn means I want to type own??

blckshdwdragon 2004-07-02 11:09 PM

yes
no, i pwn just about everyone 1:1, 2:1, a few 3:1, 4:1 havent done yet
