Do threats deter you?

Everyone has seen that guy in main with a million threats on his planets or in his custom title, "Touch me and you will die", "My alliance will burn you"! Hell I even have some myself!

My question is, do you ever actually acknowledge them/heed their warning?

I for one generally don't care in the slightest; I mainly play ascended and as you all know if you log on ascension server, you will struggle to find a player that doesn't have a threat next to his name!

Don't think anyone even reads them.

That pretty much, but if I know them/about them then I know to farm them or not anyway, for example would you farm rob3rt even if he had no threats? No, because you know he is going to mass you anyway

I meant us V.I.P's of course.

I once read somebody's planet names, it was a song lyric. Quite good one, think it was Metallica ...

When someone threatens me I want to mass them. Even if I really really shouldn't.

Bromas,

Only when you appear in my bathroom, staring at me while I shower.

I think this is a great thread!
When i first started I took names on planets very seriously, If someone said they were protected by their alliance or CO (and providing they had an alliance or CO) I would think twice about hitting them. This was maybe for the first 3 months of my SGW life. Now days sadly names on planets mean bugger all :(
