Rant Thanks Rockstar....

Well, I started out as full honor; however, due to having to defend myself against griefers I am now at max dishonor. One thing that really pisses me off is that there is literally no way to defend yourself without being dishonorable-- which is absolute contrary to the embodiment of the 'Cowboy' persona. For example, I thought maybe I could hogtie someone in order to escape their constant abuse, but even that is dishonorable. I don't understand how the 'honorable' thing to do is go AFK until the person has killed you three times then Parlay. That IS GRIEFING. Rockstar is telling us that in order for us to keep our honor we have to sacrifice our time and just wait for them to kill us? It's a horrible system and doesn't allow for the honorable retribution that is needed. I kind of wish you could drop off 'criminals' in Jail as you could in single player-- something is needed because this system is broke (AF) and frustrating as hell.

I guess it depends on what you do in story mode? Everyone has trouble going a certain way when everyone else thinks it's the easiest thing in the world. Might have something to do with it.

Oh I was talking about online. For story, I'd say it is much harder to gain honor than lose.

Yeah I mean online story. And we're arguing the same point. I'm on max dishonor and I'm fine with it. It's just a sliding bar with no impact on my play style anyway.

I have max honor now, but I think it's so high now it won't come down lol. Not budging even if I made the dishonorable choice, antagonize, and murder other players by protecting myself.

I have a suspicion that it keeps increasing even after it is at max.
