If you don't consider the violation of "true RP" a problem, then this is less of a problem. If you're not attempting to run (or enforce) a solely immersive RP game, then I can see little reason to get upset at the "for no good Rp reason at all." >ONE suggestio nis to have yo uNEVER go below unconcious by damage >doen by another player... only mosters can outright kill ya. Part of the player-value in PK is the awareness that the killer caused a real and direct effect on another human. Making the effect death gives a certain permanence to the effect. Making it merely unconciousness (and probably the loss of various EQ etc) would seem to encourage "baiting" (repeated taunting of a player by a PK'er who keeps on knocking them unconcious). -- J C Lawrence Internet: claw#null,net (Contractor) Internet: coder#ibm,net ---------------(*) Internet: clawrenc#cup,hp.com ...Honorary Member Clan McFUD -- Teamer's Avenging Monolith... </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <ul compact><li><strong>Follow-Ups</strong>: <ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00937" HREF="msg00937.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Life</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> Marian Griffith <gryphon#iaehv,nl></li></ul> </UL></LI></UL> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <UL><LI><STRONG>References</STRONG>: <UL> <LI><STRONG><A NAME="00861" HREF="msg00861.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Life</A></STRONG> <UL><LI><EM>From:</EM> Jeff Kesselman <jeffk#tenetwork,com></LI></UL></LI> </UL></LI></UL> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00897.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Virtual rooms (was: RP thesis...)</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00899.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Alright...
