Etiquette on Griefing
Posted: Mon Jun 01, 2009 8:29 am
Okay for all those PKers and PVPers out there I have but one question.
To Grief ?...or not to Grief?...that is my question.
Some reds might revel in the fact they are reds and love the sense of danger and excitement it brings.
Some blues might be wanting to turn red just because they never had before or finally want to make that change.
Sometimes people just want to fight and the only thing stopping them is the red flag...but this can be discussed prior to.
Sometimes you don't want to flag, but feel you must...it was just the fight was so good that even in death there was a sense of honor either about yourself or your opponent that it didn't matter even if they left you only a poison potion on your corpse that wasn't there before.
~"Which happened to me I might add, which resulted in me drinking the potion and engaging my killers with only my newbie longsword and my death shroud fresh from the healers in a desperate rage which almost killed one even in my weakened state of suicidal attack"
Is there an honor code into which to flag a murderer?
I say if you run, or if the state you were in was just a kill of oppurtunity then yes.
But if you confront the attacker and accept his challenge then no. You would have loved to have looted him all the same. He just had the courage to carry it out where you gave pause.
Does anyone have anything to say on this?
