Need I say more???

[BlackFoot]

so long as hes an actual player and not a bot i see nothign wrong with rping a sheep farmer

This has been going on for a long time now, why aren't these players policed by the same rule, AFK Resource Gathering?

[Duke Jones]

Yeah that second pic screams "This resource gathering is done by a script!" Look at the pre-defined path.

Investigate and Ban-hammer, please.

[sirrayiv]

I sat and watched this guy walk down his pre-defined path sheering sheep while he went, and then dropping the wool into the chest at the end of the path. I then killed all of his sheep with EQ while his character did nothing but walk back to the beginning of the path, and repeat his movement pattern.

The same rules do apply. I stop in on these guys, and have not yet found one shearing unattended. Often they are on another acct and switch over to shear.

I'm not saying uattended doesn't happen, but we do check in regularly.

Regarding Serious Business, still waiting to see him reshear. He's unattended at this time, but has not shorn any sheep either since I've been standing here.

I do appreciate the reports.

How did you kill all of his sheep with EQ?

Well that makes me feel a little bit better.

Thanks Derrick.

It's pics like these that let the community see that things ARE happening. I guess I'm guilty of "out of sight out of mind," and I'm sure I'm not the only one who looses faith that GMs are around, at times.

Is that GM Jail? OOoo....
Glad to see Unattended Resource Gathering is actively monitored. Thanks Derrick

good work team

I tried to Eq the sheep in the other tower, and the guy there had 3 people hidden amongst all the sheep. When I noticed that I had accidentially damaged 3 players, I stopped.

This guy however, logs in a 4th character and then kills all 3 of the guys that I had accidentally targeted, thus passing out 3 murder counts to me....even though he was the one who killed them.

Anyone else see a problem with this?

as you can see from Derrick's updated picture, I apparently missed two of them....however, I had to leave him something to sheer while he was being watched!

You can seriously do that? So if you START the damage, and someone else finishes it - the person who started the damage gets the murder count? Interesting.
