Why Russians?

Awww no, not this "evil Russians" shit again. There is as much pathetic schoolboys with no other way to prove themselves they're cool than by aimlissly KoSing everybody among Russians, as among every nation in this game.

Ok, so i've been playing long enough to run into some really blood thirsty players. Then it occured to me that these blood thirsty players were all Russians (don't get me wrong I have met a couple nice ones). Blood thirsty in the fact that they strive to Kill anyone in sight, especially noobs. I know this is not just me, because I have seen some russian hating runes around. Being as i'm fairly new, was there something in the passed that made them so ruthless? Seems its everyone against the Russians, or am I wrong?

One of the major factions has Russian roots and when you're a major faction the only real endgame is pvp

I wasnt complaining about russians, i was asking if there was a reason that they are so rutheless... its a game... If i was stronger and belonged in a big faction I would raid everyone I can... just wondering if there is a reason behind the russians actions.

As far as I know the term "russian" in this game is used for every strong player, as a joke, reminding of the times when they were actually dominant. the only big russian village is AD. smaller ones are gangband, roadville and a some others; its only natural that they raid nearby newbies who consume natural resources around them.

KIlling is fun. Losing chars is fun.
There is widely spread opinion among Russian community thet all western players are capitalistic pigs with no pride.

i encountered a russian player yesterday, I had moved to a new location and set up a small camp and was on a noob character watching over the area while i was transporting my main there.

so a random newly spawned player appeared and talked to me, there was the usual hello and then where are you from, so i said England, they said they were Russian, I, having had good Russian villagers before, wasn't phased by this and i thought i might have found a noob to nurture into a decent player, however, they just said "i will stand here for a long time, don't worry", which i found to be odd and assumed they were scouting, later that night, my main had just arrived and i was in the house i set up on the small claim i had sorting out the stuff i brought, when a guy appeared through my door with a bear cape and a bronze sword, shouting something Russian, I hadn't let him know i wasn't a noob so he was likely surprised to see my soldier's sword, but he went for it anyway, I punched straight through his defense and killed him where he stood... so yes, they may be blood thirsty, but i only have 150UA so they aren't necessarily deadly as well, learn to fight and you have just as good a chance as any other mid level player

Don't be such nazis.
I'm a russian player and was slain multiple times by american guys, so I should to think now all americans are angry kids and they are killing everyone?

Only one thing I can say for sure: Russians could be resentful sometimes. If they was killed multiple times at the beginning, they would try to kill everyone too

This made me laugh and i dont know why. Most likely the fat that you jsut turned around and bopped the dude in the face when he seemed certain he was going to win that fight.
