The Ridleybank Resistance Front
No pants.
Cool! I'm on the leaderboard! http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Malton_XP_Leaderboard

My policy when playing Urban Dead has always been to act like a zombie when I'm a zombie, and like a survivor when I'm a survivor. This means that if I'm a zombie, I don't attack other zombies unless attacked first, and as a survivor I never attack other survivors.
I'm a member of The Ridleybank Resistance Front (though I've been out on my own lately), but since the RRF is a zombie horde, that has nothing to do with me when I'm not a zombie. When I'm a survivor, I don't spy and I don't kill other survivors. Period.
So it's simultaneously irritating and amusing when people get all butt-hurt over me being a zombie in a zombie game. A while back, while a zombie, I smashed a generator -- just one of countless generators I've smashed while a zombie -- and a few days later after being revived I got PK'd by a douchebag who accused me of "griefing". Today, again while revived, after having spent a few days hunting zombies, I got PK'd by another douchebag who apparently took exception to the RRF being my Group. Then, while searching for myself on this wiki a few minutes ago, I discovered that I was on a list of players who are "so anti-survivor, that to revive them would be, at the least, criminally negligent".
I really don't know how to make sense of this. It's a zombie game, people. Zombies smash generators. Zombies attack survivors. What do you expect? Why do you think my behavior as a zombie has anything to do with my behavior as a survivor? Is it because you yourselves don't grasp the concept of the game? I know who you are; you're the ones who can't contemplate, even for a minute, acting like a zombie when you're a zombie, so you just stand there attacking other zombies until you get revived. It never occurred to you to role-play in a role-playing game.
