Trying to survive, trying to stay alive

Even though the streets are bumpy, lights burned out
Dope fiends die with a pipe in their mouths
Old school buddies not doing it right
Every day it's the same
And it's the same every night
I wouldn't shoot you bro but I'd shoot that fool
If he played me close and tried to test my cool
Every day I wonder just how I'll die
Only thing I know is how to survive
There's only one rule in the real world
And that's to take care of you, only you and yours
Keep dealing with the hard times day after day
Might deal me some dope but then crime don't pay
Black man tried to break into my house again
Thought he got off early doing time in the pen
Even though my brothers do me just like that
I get a lot of love so I'm giving it back to the

So just peep the game and don't call it TRIBBLE
'Cause to me, life is one hard rap
Even though my sister smoked crack cocaine
She was nine months pregnant, ain't nothing changed
600 Million on a football team
And her baby dies just like a dope fiend
The story I tell is so incomplete
Five kids in the house and no food to eat
Don't look at me and don't ask me why
Mama's next door getting high
Even though she's got five mouths to feed
She's rather spend her money on a h-i-t
I always tell the truth about things like this
I wonder if the mayor overlooked that list
Instead of adding to the task force send some help
Waiting on him I'd better help myself
Housing authority and the O.P.D
All these guns just to handle me in the

Even though they put us down and call us animals
We make real big banks and buy brand new clothes
Drive fancy cars, make love to stars
Never really saying just who we are
We use alias names like Too $hort
Sell you stuff you might kill for
Young kids grow up and that's all they know
Didn't teach him in school now he's slangin' dope
Only thing he knows is how to survive
But will he kill another brother before he dies?
In the ghetto, you keep one eye open
All day long, just hoping and hoping
You can pay your bills and not drink too much
Then the problems of life you'll be throwing up
Like me, but you don't see
Ten years from now, where will you be?

So much game in a Too $hort rap
Blacks can't be white and whites can't be black
Why you wanna act like someone else?
All you gotta do is just be yourself
We're all the same color underneath
Short dog's in the house you'd better listen to me
Never be ashamed of what you are
Proud to be black stand tall at heart
Even though some people give you no respect
Be intelligent, when you put em in check
Cause when you're ignorant, you get treated that way
And when they throw you in jail you got nothing to say
So if you don't listen it's not my fault
I'll be getting paid while you'll be paying the cost
Sitting in the jailhouse running your mouth
While me and my peoples try to get out

His thoughts on the meaning of "ghetto" seems to be different from some folks in this thread. Weird.
what i learned from sun tzu - art of war is that war has no rules, and the dirtier you play, the better
(basic common sense really)
Here's a better and more recent one:
War does not determine who is right, only who is left.
War... war never changes.
But seriously, the "cloak until the enemy is weak, then pop out and finish them off" tactic dates back at least to that venerable tabletop wargame, Star Fleet Battles. Knew one guy who wouldn't play anything but Rom for that very reason. It's a time-honored Romulan battle technique, and crying about it is as sensible as crying about Klingon ships that have heavy armor and mount cannon all over the place. It's what they do.
Hydrans; because Hellbores, ya know? My collection of ships is not vast, but I cherish it.
OP, you need to research & make a build to defend against that tactic. Watching them howl when they can't do what they love is the best revenge. They scream and whine like babies that you are the one who is somehow cheating or cowardly.
Just don't do the mission and stay out of Ker'rat. If you complete the mission, all you'll get is a Mk XII Very Rare item anyway...big deal. It's not worth the frustration quite honestly.
But you can get the pacify enemy leaders mission that gives you a sweet 1440 dil for doing Ker'rat 3 times which can be done in 30 mins if you're quick.
Also, aren't there skills/traits/ gear that lets you avoid being one shotted on the sneak attack? Seems like after that, those guys avoid conflict unless you are just weak.
Turning speakers up so you can hear cloaked buffing, cycling 2 tactical teams with a drake build and mouse hovering over BFI incase of bop torp boats and using APD to debuff their stealth are all good ways to prevent/damage control vapers.
I read through the first few pages, but did not finish...but anyways, I can agree with most who say war has no rules. And one shouldn't expect any favours or courtesies while in Ker'rat. In fact you should expect the very worst in people to come shining through.
That said, I can also see that what happened to OP is really really really annoying. Rage inducing annoying as a matter of fact. But that doesn't mean his opponents were in the wrong. Because people have been "Fringe Hunting" forever now. Really, you ought to expect that kind of stuff going in.
But I feel your pain OP. Frankly, post DR I've been so disgusted with the PvP meta I quit playing it altogether. I've ranted about the detrimental effects of rampant power creep/traits and shield bypass attacks has had on pvp before, so ill spare everyone and won't go into it again. Needless to say I really miss the pvp of Pre LoR up to DR. I really do miss it, but its not worth the frustration for me. I do my pvp in other games. Which can be equally as frustrating lol. Just can't win it seems. Been playing SW Battlefront and its a joke, so many people hacking. Not too mention its riddled with bugs So I guess the grass isn't always greener eh?
Can't stand the heat, stay out of the 'hood. Also, feedback pulse is ur friend.
Someone please tell me, Is it inappropriate that as I read this thread, I'm hearing Geto boy's: "Ain't it good to be a gangsta" running through my head? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_207UxnkGQ
Gangnam style beats Ghetto style anytime! What Tactical kit do you think he's using here?
Clearly that is a science power.
He's also wearing TOS medical blue. But to the OP remember this quote from Jack Emmert: "Starfleet and Klingon. Yeah. So two factions, full PvE content." There is no way to fix a problem Cryptic themselves created six years ago. People simply are not going to play a part of the game with no support.

Detecting big-time "anti-old-school" bias here. NX? Lobi. TOS/TMP Connie? Super-promotion-box. (aka the two hardest ways to get ships) Excelsior & all 3 TNG "big hero" ships? C-Store. Please Equalize...

Been keeping my eyes on this topic, to see how it goes - and I really think that's enough for now.

OP was using it in one of these ways:

Hint: he doesn't like the tactic, and used a word from his lexicon to describe it, which is not an unfair thing to do.

Would that constitute trolling ?
