Yes @Octavian but that’s taking you at your word that you logged on, heard booms, immediately geared up to run outside coz you really wanted a fight. But you didn’t get a fight so you immediately come on the forums and cry “offline raid protection”??? Feel me? There’s just more than a few elements of your story that don’t add up.
My opinion….@Octavian logs on already assuming the worse. He hears booms, starts to panic, gets to the alchemy bench and fumbles into a fighter build, then he goes to his many chests “where’s the fighter armor and weapons”? Minutes later finally gets outside expecting to have to fight and ….oh….it was just star metal meteors crashing down. Embarrassed he hurries to the forums and starts crying about offline raid protection.

Yep, it’s super hardcore. Chances are you won’t last a week without getting raided, most likely wiped even. For the most part it’s kill on sight, if you see someone or they see you expect to fight or flight. It’s PvP after all. If you got a weak stomach and are prone to giving up then it s not for you and I can only suggest to go play house with the rest of the care bears on the PvE servers where all you’ll have to complain about is noisy neighbors who build too much, an excess of keys and shortage chests for them and that damned water skin not being there at the start of the game 
You gotta remember that the other guys are just like you, they’re there to have fun too. You might imagine that as they’re raiding you that they’re just hateful people but I assure you that in their party they’re laughing out loud and having fun and it’s nothing personal against you, it’s just the nature of the game. If you message someone with an attitude or resentment then yes they’ll probably assume a more toxic attitude. You will meet some ■■■■■■■■ but you’ll probably also meet some of the nicer people you’ll ever meet in a game like this, coz they’re bein real. There’s no PC or posturing in official PvP, the land of ■■■■ and honey. You’ll have good , you’ll have bad days. People will do you wrong but you will also do questionable things to others. It’s a game, you’re there to TRY and enjoy your time there. All these guys saying “don’t do it” ….chances are that they could dish it out but they couldn’t take it but they don’t want to feel all alone on Quitter St so they’re inviting you to join them.
But bare in mind that the general consensus is that FC is abandoning the pvp community, shutting it down and moving on so….
They don’t tell their alt status quo, assuming they do each have alts.

And this is why strategy is dead in this game. There is no pain when you die so brute numbers, min maxing, and endurance is all that matters, leave your brain at home.
Sorry, not sure what you mean.
While I’ll admit I was in a bit of a panic getting my kit on, having just logged on to see my T3 door taking damage from the booms, I was ready for a fight and definitely NOT meteors lol
Or you can just speak plainly instead of in the riddles you usually do. You speak as if you thought most of your comments assuming we’ve heard what you thought instead of writing them out.
You speak as if the elephant in the room is the generation gap. 
Metaphysical thoughts being encouraged to spread doubt, uncertainty, and fear! F.U.D.
I won’t stop you, but you can DM me.
Nah I’m good, most of the back and forth is unnecessary and because you do not make sense.
If you don’t understand why calling people.
Is toxic then you’re part of the problem. Be better.
It has nothing to do with being a poor sport when on the losing end and everything with people’s behavior and gameplay style. Some people have fun murder hoboing around and some people have fun building for the sake of building. There is nothing inherently wrong with either. The issue arises when toxic individuals enter the picture and Conan has no shortage of them. Conan PvP my not be Rust but it still has more toxic then non-toxic.
Conan Exiles is indeed dying. PvE is boring and PvP is a cesspool. PvE-C is almost good but it’s still missing something.

people have too thin skin, few are actually toxic in conan pvp, if you want to see real toxicity go play rust.
If chat/banter/trashtalk really offends you, you can always disable the chat window, though if you can’t even take that on an adult online game I dunno how you are gonna cope irl when you run into any conflict.
There was a thread a little bit ago were a player wanted to know why they got ban from official servers for “Trash talk”. It was because the things he was saying where deplorable. What he saw as trash talk was so foul that it violated TOS and got him ban. (In an era of almost zero moderation from Funcom).
you just objected to being called a care bear, good luck you are going to need it.
False
I said If you don’t understand why calling people “Care Bear” Is toxic then you’re part of the problem.
Be better.

Do they? I mean, some certainly do, but in general? I’d much rather live in a society that encouraged respectful behavior towards everyone, including those you disagree with or those you compete with, than a society that encourages “growing a thicker skin” to tolerate disrespectful behavior.
We all have bad days. Sometimes we say things we shouldn’t. That’s part of being human. But being an inconsiderate jerk doesn’t need to be the default option.

Life is going to present you with lots of unreasonable people, events and conflict (unless you have lived in a sheltered hugbox), you can’t control others, nor is it morally right to do so, but you can control yourself, your emotions and how you react to things, this is your true and only morally just sphere of influence.
A society that encourages thicker skin is more emotionally regulated and more prone to conflict de-escalation, do you think any Police or security training worth its salt produces people that will answer insult with offence? “Are you disrespecting me?”.
You cannot control a situation if you can’t even control yourself.
You’re thinking it backwards. If people were respectful towards each other, there would be no need for de-escalating because things would not escalate. Misunderstandings would not result in escalation as easily as they do now because people would assume misinterpretation, rather than malice.
Think about any flame war on the forums. They have started from either
a) one person being a jerk, or
b) one person misinterptetating the other person for being a jerk.
If people being jerks wasn’t the default option, neither of this would happen.
My take in this is, being civil and respectful has no drawbacks compared to being a dick, and it produces significantly better results in many, many cases.
