Then maybe its your old age which has made you mentally weak and feeble. Your diminished brain capacity has made you unable to grasp how basic game mechanics work in what is actually a very simple video game. You lack the comprehension to realize this is a PvP game and you lack the competitiveness and willpower to compete. All you can do at this point is cry, uninstall, run away (from a game you paid for) and threaten to call police over a video game.

Cyber-bullying in one of its many forms. Picking on vulnerable newbies is a cheap, cowardly move for pitiable cretins with no self respect, who don't have the fortitude to help others instead of abusing them. That sort of attitude gives a player a reputation that forces others to beat them up or leave. They will be playing alone. No allies, no friends. In an MMO. The only consolation is that it will become boring and they will leave. They will blame the game, other players, the map, the developers, anyone but themselves for creating a hostile environment. Most distressing is that when this is a real-world attitude. Such a lonely life.
H&H has a LOT more in it than PvP. It's a complex game about learning skills and survival against the environment, discovering, exploring, experimentation, making friends and allies, seeing how far you can develop your character. When I want strictly PvP, I play a different game. I see the PvP just like my military service: a tool to help keep a nation (however small) safe. If this were more than a video game, I would have asked my allies to work with me to create a hostile environment in game for the tyrants to make them leave. But it's just a game, so I left.
Extortion in the real world is something different, though. We have laws about that.
I got my money's worth of fun out of the game a long time ago. I paid to help the designers develop a good game concept. I saw the potential in a game and I wanted to support it.
What do you support? Do you ever give back? Or do you just take everything you can get and move on? Your reputation can be your downfall or your savior. Your choice.
