Longterm makes blue pks dissappear and stay blue. They can't keep ping ponging from 4-5 murders and macro it off 8 hours.

I enjoy the notoriety playing as murderer. I want folks to attack me, even gang up on me. But, with no long term counts, the only time I'll be red is when I'm in stat loss. And that would not allow me to res and seek revenge if beaten. So I voted for murders to count towards long term counts. Word...
Vote yes on 40. Good for our kids. Good for our future.

Agreed to the above...Ive been wanting to start looking for field pvp ever since I started, but as a pk, if I want to run as a red that means every time I die I have to stop playing for 8 hrs straight or suffer statloss...as an anti-pk Id have to hunt blue-pks who can just macro counts off every night....long gone are the days where red vs blue was the ongoing fight. =/

so to implement what would have to happen? need to revert all red chars 8 hour counts into 'long term counts' that add up to how long they would be red now anyways without stat loss or somthin? with just 5 short terms or a complete revert down to 4 counts?
cant really tell a guy that has 6 murders its not gona be 16 hours its actually gonan be more liek 80 hours before your blue :< or somthin

I think it would be easier to grandfather all current kills (since they were made under the old rules) and only new kills would be subject to the longterm count.
IRL, if you're spending 10 years in prison for killing some one, but half way through your sentence they change the laws to a minimum of 15 years for murder, you aren't all of the sudden given an extra 5 year sentence. You only half to finish out the original sentence of 10.

Aye, I'd like to see this implemented.. I miss the days of hunting in a dungeon and seeing a red name pop on screen. Nowadays I panic every time I see any name.. and its stressin me out!

If this were to be implemented there would be a global wipe on murder counts. I believe..

Shameless bump for a good thing.
It would be sweet to see long terms and/or proper stamina loss put into the next patch.
edit: read what you said in shard news, nevermind

I don't see what you are referencing in the shard news. Is this not going to be implemented?

Long-Term Counts are ~40 hours.
Short-Term Counts are ~8 hours.
Can only ping-pong so many times before you are perma-red.
