Ah ... so it's kinda like the RPG version of the shooter term "n00b" I guess. When you don't play the game the way someone else wants you to.

Well, in FPSs you expect people to kill you and frustrate you. That is what it is all about. So if you whine about getting killed in a FPS, you need to find a new game.

RPGs often have try to make PvP consensual only since the game does not revolve around PvP, so in those games you should be able to avoid non-consensual PvP without being harassed... but that attitude gets often you called a Carebear.

Example: In SWG if a bounty hunter had a mission on a jedi, the jedi could- by design- go into a private house to be safe. Bounty hunters would wait outside for hours and even try to report the jedi not coming out to fight (CSR's told them that jedi were supposed to have the safe haven of a house though). BHs like that would be the ones calling the jedi a Carebear.
