Is it the tedium of being a warrior? It is the pyschology of the people who choose them?Why is it that 90% of the time I see ppl being pk'ed it is by male warriors post 20 lvl killing white/blue shirts in shops? After a particular weekend of seeing so many ppl pk'ed in shops (big thanks to sTimsk that i wasnt one) that I was a little sick at the end of it. I am not saying ban pk'ing as I think that it is a natural state of the world. There are times when u badly want to strike out it is the senselessness that annoys me. And of course Sabbak etc. Personally, I would like to see a little more justice in the world of Mir. If people want to murder then go right ahead just pay the price. My biggest pain?! When a n00b is standing ín the town BY A GUARD why cannot that guard (that guard that is so hard they kill any mob entering the town) not stand up for the n00b. The ideas: PK outside of the world. Current rules stand If you PK in a town then it leaves a permanent mark. Some note on your character, ie 2 kills in a town and yellow is permanent. None of this "it goes in 5 minutes". This means if you are in the countryside then fair game. Detain the characters in jail for an 1 hour as a temp ban. Hell if then can pk why cant the guards arrest you. Guards/shop keepers standing up for the locals. Hell if they can smash a lvl 7 skele in one go why cant they stand up for the newbies. scytale. PS Why the hell do people need to send in screen shots. I bet if you logged player (at lvl) killed player (at level) in location. You at these logs and you will see some amazing statistics. |

In the new patch pking will already be harder. Once someone hits you they ussually go brown just for you. After the patch everybody will be able to see someone go brown and can kill him/her legally. So it can only be a real problem if your alone but if you standing in town everyone can kill the person who attacked you. So everyone in your vincinity can have a shot at the pker without going yellow/red./Tricky ~{GameMasters}~Trickster Fear my superhen. |

Tricky what does that really mean. Come on lets be honest. We know how long being brown last. PK'er kills someone, turns brown, waits 20seconds and wanders back into the town white.And sorry for seeming harsh but I think dutchking said it. Wow brown ... hmmm .... so all the normal, sane, non pk'ers can ... err ... try to pk him. Come on most ppl dont even want to get into that situation. scytale

No, a pker hits someone and turns brown, anyone who sees him can kill him legally. If someone turns brown after patch he's instantly got every player in the surrounding hunting him. 20 seconds too short you say, 5 is enough to kill him if there's enough players around. ~{GameMasters}~Trickster Fear my superhen. |

Tricky, I think you missed scytale's point. Most people don't play to kill others, even if there was no sanction (like yellow/red) against them. That means that expecting most players to police towns themselves is a non-starter.Also, most people won't see that someone's name has gone brown. I certainly don't spend my time in town checking what colour other people's names are. I just shop and trade. I don't see why u can't simply have a Guard pop in and kill the PKer.

Take Mud wall for example. You cannot expect the players to police there. There are some rules just not spoken. Some high lvl kills a blue/white shirt ... who cares. Just some n00b they say. Shouldnt have come up here. Everyone else just shrugs. You start a fight there with a high lvl and you will have a 10 way guild war starting. Everyone knows the rules, if he wants to do it then just let him. scytale Edited by - scytale on 10/09/2001 16:08:42 |

One other point here, will the patch sort out the bug where, even when in peaceful mode, if you hit a pet or a skellie, you turn brown. Else this could cause some interesting situations. I don't to see real attacks against pets or skellies made legal, its just that pets and skellies should be treated the same as players so they don't get hit in peaceful modes.

No Pking in towns would be stupid, the current system allows you a maximum of 3 pks before your red. Most people dont randomly pk because it adds 100 pk points that they might need to use later. Also say someone steals from you, you meet them in town, attack them, guard kills you... The current pk system is fair and balanced. Making shops safe zones is totally fair, but guards killing brown people? lolPersonally I would like to see safe zones not work for anyone who's brown. I'm extremely fed up of hit and run cowards. And Penal Colony with such a large safe zone... just encourages people like DonCorleone who just stand around all day pking, then run away when a high level comes.
