What I'm wondering is, is there any consensus about these? I don't think any of the above are necessarily cheap, as long as people are fighting at more or less the same soul level. (I was a level 9 the other day invaded by a Blue Phantom who was clearly around level 100, and that struck me as pretty cheap -- though it's possible the invader didn't realize how low level I was until after I was incinerated in approximately .01 seconds.) I would assume it comes down more to what people's reasonable expectations are. For example, I can see having a fight club that prohibits magic -- or alternatively, where people can ONLY use magic, etc. Obviously, there is some clear-cut douchebag behavior (backstabbing someone while they're bowing, for example, which I saw someone mention), and it's hard to see the fun in bullying brand-new, low-level players in Undead Burg, for example, with your Havel's armor and ascended Pyromancy Flame. But aside from the obvious, are there any rules I should know about being a good DS PvP citizen? Is there a FAQ or stickied thread someone can link me to?
Finally, as someone brand-new to this PvP thing, if anyone would like to get together for some practice, I'd be appreciative. I can't promise I'll be any good, but I can promise to play fair -- once we've decided what that means. Anywho, please feel free to PM me if you're on XBox and want to duel. I'm shooting for a 50 sl character at present. (Don't want to spend the time building a 120 sl until I get some sense of what styles/techniques work for me.) Thanks!
