Running is NOT Noob
Title says it all, getting sick of people who keep saying this as if they are the best player ever. Hightailing it in the other direction to not get killed and not award the other team free points is the exact opposite of noobishness.
I've gone 5 games in a row now without a death cause I run when I know I CANT win, why would you want to try win a fight when you know you can't? Anyway thats just my little rant
In the future if you have problems with runners just bring freaking cripple, its not that hard.

Running in AB = not noobish.
Running in RA to waste time = noobish.

And you really think one will read this and go...
"Damn! That dude is right, how could I be so dumb and think running is not pro?"
The concept of kiting to mitigate damage is as old as the game. Be happy that they don't understand that and work on your self esteem aka listen to Rhamia Darigaz.
Have fun.

It's technically called "kiting", as well as choosing your battles wisely. I don't see why this deserves a thread though.

Kiting is one of the better ways to stay alive, imo
if you have trouble catching kiters, use cripple or learn how to use bull's

You should have really mentioned where you are running. In AB sure there are both upsides and downsides. The upside is that you do not give them any points and many idiots keep chasing you rather than capping. The downside is that if you are running you will not have max health and max energy. Since it is such a small place you can easily find yourself in another battle anyway. Unless you have a monk of course but then if you had a good one there would be no need to run.
On the other hand runners in RA are complete idiots. If you have no chance of winning them give up and go die rather than wasting the rest of the game (could be 4 mins) running away.
However i don't see why people are calling you that in AB or whatever. I don't see many people complaining there, only RA.

Fine..
I'd like to edit my opinion.
RA kiters - Idiots. Completely, Rangers are the worst.
AB Kiters - quite clearly under the false pretense of it's amazing tactics.

Your're an idiot.
Kiting is the only prot that reduces all damage and is 0 energy, and doesn't take a skill slot. i think it sounds pro

Remember the difference between kiting and running around the map for 3 minutes to run down the timer.

theres a difference between running and kiting.
if your running away from damage your are kiting
if your are running to grief other people or any reason other than avoiding damage you are running and are a noob

You can run to deal damage. It's called chasing though, and some call that lame.
Little edit : Today, korean RA has around 50% noobs ...
