PvP or No PvP

Postby sirrico1 » Tue Aug 04, 2009 10:44 pm

I am not sure if this is a bug or deliberate but I always thought sloth was a NON PVP mud, tonight a player turned wyvern form and almost killed 3 people. Personaly I think that needs to be fixed so they get slapped by a demon or something instead of being treated like a mob.

I know this is not the first time this has happened and I am assuming it is because when a player changes form like this they become a mob, and therefore are able to attack other players. Like I said I am not sure on this so please do not quote me on it. I just feel it should be changed or something before some newbie gets blasted by another player, or a room full of them for that matter.


Sorry Splork it's not NOXIOUS posting like the others but I feel this is a legitimate thing. :D

and if my wife quits the game over this since she is one of the 3 who almost died, well...I'll not be back either and there goes 2 front liners for sloth's all mighty groups.

Very understandable and this has actually been a problem with shapeshift and forms since its inception.

When I have time Ill try to figure something out. I really do not want to have to go through every form and fix it since the code used is different for each and every one of them.

Just please try to remember, this stuff is nothing to worry about. The players that mistakenly tried to kill your wife did not mean to. The coders who screwed up and allowed this type of stuff, didn't intentionally do so. And if somebody died, we would reimburse the exp lost to anyone involved.

Relax, its a game and we arent here to screw anybody over,

Did this individual (the pkiller) initiate combat using a special attack or just the regular kill cmd?

Also if anyone knows of a shapeshift form with special attack that works on players, let me know and I'll fix it.

The kill command working against players seems strange to me. I don't believe it worked on S3, did it? Or is my memory failing me? Anyway I think it'll be fixed.

Kill command does not work if shifted on other players and most special attacks of forms are already fixed apparently.

So I am not really sure how this happened? Maybe they rescued a mob and other players assisted that player?

it happened when the player used a breathe weapon, I am assuming on a mob but it hit all of us at the well in SS and after the mob died he did not flee, he used the breathe weapon on 2 small mobs but all who were there got hit and started fighting. once he changed back the fighting stopped.

irritating thing was the smile he did :?

all of them work and that's the point. One of the cool things about being a druid was being able to shift and kill someone even in so called safe rooms.
sorry to see these abilities changed.

How is that cool? There's no pthieving nemore, so I fail to see why we'd want that.

Area affects will still be dangerous to other players, people will just have to be more careful.

This drivel is worse than any political thread.

Word. Toughen Up - you die in sloth when a monster makes the room a refrigerator, go trade pokemon cards if you don't like that.

A non PvP game should be just that NON PVP but hey, who cares right? let's just exploit the system and kill off the innocent to ruin the other person's fun.

In your case it does sound appealing.
