Wait till you get in Hellfire peninsula rogue will be replaced by DKs .

LOL yeah I know, Alli are the good guys and Ive had some stuff done to me that makes them seem like the bad guy.

I just started playing again...Ive quit so many times its not even funny. Im back this time again cuz family is playing.  But I was a Rogue but I like Hunter so much better.

yeah I had my fun with the rogue, I never talked smack like that after but I have killed the same person over and over again while fighting mobs.... But that is just payback for what the Alli has done to me, Ive gotten killed by ?? so many times I lost count. I used to be more honorable than most alli but now im in vindictive a-hole mode and will try and kill any Alli even if they are way lower level.   I mean it only makes sense, if you can't beat them might as well join them and grief the others.  Cuz what goes around comes around.

As a person that considers myself mature and happens to play a rogue, the only time I ever /spit on an enemy is when:

A)  One of my lower level friends is being ganked and corpse camped by a higher-level ally and I show up to even the fight,

B) When I get attacked by a higher level toon that doesn't one-shot me (not so much on the rogue now that i'm leveled)

C) When I win a fight stacked against me (ie, two or three equal level allies, one five or so levels higher, or attacked at low hp fighting a mob)

I salute people I haven't been able to kill in a fair fight (dang resto druids!).  As someone who's been on the recieving end as much as anyone else, I think I've developed a theory:  These people, rogue and non-rogue alike, are kids that never properly learned to play their class and as a result suffered a lot in world PvP.  They decided to take out their rage by rolling the sneaky backstab class so they can follow you around and pop out at the most inconvenient time.  It almost seems like a crusade... I've had people twice my level corpse camp me for an hour at a time while leveling, completely unprovoked.  I dunno, maybe it's a "thrill of the hunt" thing... only instead of hunting game with a rifle or bow it's more like a bazooka vs a toddler.

Haha ! Wonderful reply, really tickled.

Think its time now for a BUMP here :)

I think that the rude behavior is more of a faction based hatred than and class based one. Horde think all alliance players are whining little cretins who broke suction from their momma's teat long enough to line that backstab up. And Alliance members think all horde players are basement dwelling neanderthals pondering how much mana +5 that new belt is gonna land him when he spends his dkp. Or maybe it's the other way around.......meh...it just might be a little of both.

Its all in the class. The only working playstyle for a rogue is that of an asshole.

Therefore most people who roll rogue are already assholes, otherwise they would have picked another class. If they arent assholes to begin with, they soon become that ...

Because rogues do it from behind?

ROFL!! Probably the most sweepingly ignorant reply to a post ever! Get the feeling someone got taken down by a Rogue one too many times, lol.

What's next, all the people who play Pally's are cowards because they use a healing fighter class, all the people who play Mages have bad BO and that's why they choose a ranged class or maybe all people that play undead chars do so because they are already butt ugly anyway?

Now i am confused, how did that in anyway prove your point?

I do have a fairly high level rogue, but then i also have a warrior and a hunter too, but my main is a Mage. So please, i would love to hear your in depth psychological assessment of how my particular mix of characters effects my personality?

You proved my point by having a rogue avatar and acting like an asshole by wanting to start a flamewar . Get it now ?

Probably not rofl ....

Rogues are very much a class for individualists. They are very powerful one v one, particularly in world pvp, but don't play nearly so well in teams. If a rogue is played well in a group situation, then it will tend to hang around the back of enemy lines, picking off weak people, sapping, and disrupting the enenmy - but it's still largely fighting it's battles alone - which contrasts considerably with more group based classes, such as shamen, priests, or warriors.

That's not to say all rogues are bad players, or can't work in a group - I've met some really great people who play rogues - however, it is a tendency. When I'm playing my rogue, I feel far less reason to work with other people than if I played almost any other class.

I am not doing to defend or slam WOW, but this thread has a lot of narrow-sighted responses here.  If you notice, there are players of every class in the game that try to gain an unfair advantages and who will maul you then taunt.  I've been in Bgs and got killed 15 vs 1 and took two of them down will me and the guys still did crap like /lol and /golfclap.

The only reason why you notice this more with rogues is because they excel at catching solo players off guard.

Regarding the B/ answer, english is not my native language so there might be some bad spellings, but i think most people understand what i am trying to say.

Anyway, thanks for the replys so far, keep them coming.

 

 

 

Your english surpasses most native english speakers.

What is it with these people ?

Im playing a preist on horde side on Ravencrest PVP server, and are often engaged in combat with alliance players, sometimes i win and sometimes them, anyway most of the times when i loose the player who beat me would "salute" or "bow" at me, or some other respectfull gesture.

But then there are rogues, these guys will sneak up behind me and do some backstap from stealth, im fine with that its what they do, but then when im dead on the ground they will "spit" or " make rude gesture" or some other stupid remark, its not all the times but very often ( i take notes ), ofcourse other classes do this, but rarely, rogues realy top the list by far.

So back to my question, whats going on in those peoples heads ?

 

 

 

Those rogues you mention do not have style my friend.

I am glad I have my rogue on a RPPvP server. I retired my rogue from dungeons and raids as pretty much if leather drops, hunters and druids will QQ until their eyes bleed if a rogue need some leather . So I retired my rogue from drama and went into the worst nightmare in open pvp world. I admit, I became a vicious ganker.

I get gold from some very well known guilds, and get contracts to gank players. So the people that get ganked dont know why they are trashed over and over again. I have a ganking list lol. And guilds do not know for who I work. Plus I can open locked boxes. I get paid very well from these guilds. So, all that gold I get, I spend it on my paladin, which happens to be a very welcome asset on dungeons and raids.

Have fun.

SOME people in all classes do that.

I never did unless it was done to me first then revenge and hate required it over and over until they begged me to stop.

You call all rogue players assholes, then accuse the other guy of starting a flame war?  Unless you yourself play a rogue as your main, I think it's safe to say you invalidated your own argument.

sheesh... its spelled rouge -_-
