I feel bad.

He was about to kill a SB and I jumped in to save the SB, once I saw it was Gotmagi I felt guilty because I know he solos

Don't get me wrong, i think adding is part of the game...it's just weird to hear that you add people unless you know them, while i thought you were against adding/adders

It was a clutch moment where i needed to save a buddy
And no, the majority of the server adds, at this point i tend to remember those who don't as apposed to those who do.
Who is your main?

I don't know anyone in this game, I take a mental note of names of people who haven't added on me before. There's very few people on this list and I rarely add new names, because quite frankly almost everyone on the server does it.
My time spent in RvR (currently 10L2) tells me that the majority of people add here without hesitation--even diverting an entire zerg or grp to the other side of the map to do so.
I don't tend to add without checking who I'm adding on, on this occasion I added to save a friend without checking the name of the guy, because he was on such low HP.
Hope that makes sense.

I guess so. So if it wasn't a friend, and you didn't know who the enemy was, you wouldn't add?
Quick follow-up if you don't mind: Lets say you kill someone between amg and apk. To you it was a solo kill, to me you killed my bait and this is going according to plan: to get you out of the way for my realmmates. I kill you before you restealth. In your mind, I've "added"? Because honestly, in my opinion, you're doing your job by taking out reinforcements from apk trying to get to their group or BG (considering that assassins don't really have much role in keep takes or zerging or 8mans). Anyone who tries to kill you is doing their job as well though, by clearing the way for those reinforcements. If what you think is a clean 1v1 is actually a trap, possibly set by more than 2 people even, you have no way of knowing and assume it's a filthy adder? I mean in most situations if you're found killing someone between apk and amg you really only have yourself to blame for an ill-chosen target, right? Not talking about situations when an entire zerg crosses a map (how would they do that to a stealther outside their clip range anyhow?) ... although considering your usual placement not far outside portal keeps, I'd argue a zerg or fg coming up over a hill by surprise and killing you is also justifiable considering that they will want stragglers to be able to reach them later.

You're onto something here:

As a soloer it is extremely frustrating walking in to stealth groups all day, then there's the standing around waiting for 1 person who's far enough away from the rest of the zerg to attack and stand a chance of getting away once killed. Then there's groups and zergs who clip in just as you jump someone and zerg over as if their life depends on it.
It ain't hard to see where I'm coming from, and if it is then you've never played solo before.
The herald says it all.

Not at all, I just like to know who is asking such questions. It seems like a pretty specific question, so I wonder what the motive behind it is.
So is your question hypothetical or not?
Are you talking about a certain situation that happened?
Who are you in game?
Do you really want to know my answer or are you baiting me?
Excuse the sharp tongue, but there's too many people here hiding behind fake names. Would be nice to know at least who I'm talking to before replying to such a question.

I've done a little soloing, but I'm a visi non-speed class and sometimes prefer to relax in an easier setting with a smallman or zerg (undesirable 8man class). We have run into each other exactly twice, with each of us getting a win, although yours was definitely more impressive because you escaped guys who tried to add (they were not, in this case at least, part of a bait trap). I think I was low RR4 at the time.
These are not hypotheticals but you can interpret them any way you want. Basically, what I'm asking (without hypothetical scenarios) is there must be a lot of instances where you consider someone to have added when the set-up on the other side of the realm was intentional. Is this something you're conscious of when playing or does the frustration win out and it all feels like adding? You literally don't need to read into this any deeper than the question(s) itself. It's not an accusation or anything beyond. I didn't expect such resistance to the idea of sharing your opinions.

If I see more than 1 person killing a guy I will step in to help, because in my opinion that is a trash way to play. You literally have 6+ man groups of Alb stealthers stuck to one another, which is also a trash way to play. I am not so irrational that I cannot differentiate the varying "trash level" between a duo and a 6+ man stealth zerg, but to me they are both shitty when soloers get beat down by them.
Beating someone and then getting added on happens all the time and is shitty. Especially on this server where opportunities to actually play your class (in combat) are so few and far between.
People often ask why all the assassins end up stood outside portal keeps, it's simple--there's no where else to go.
