there's a HUGE difference in 1-on-1 pvp arena-style and open PK, in areas, with mob, trigtraps, etc, where knowledge of multiple areas and tricks can trump well-written scripts. If you've ever fought in a tourney and run on chaos port, you know the difference. Arenas are cool, don't get me wrong, even if the people who talk the most shit tend to be the ones who wouldn't be caught dead near one, so they kinda lose their usefulness (heh, some way to force people to fight duels might be fun, at that - can't rent with a challenge upon you or something.. but I digress).
I agree it could in theory wind up being way more work for the imms, and there are definitely sensitive types who'd wind up getting their panties in a bunch for one reason or another, but yeah, it's not like anyone would be forced to go there, so the possible embarrassment of losing to someone 1/4 your size can be avoided. Making it kind of like valk, with chars unable to leave (or maybe, you get the option to move once in your chars life - you can leave at some point, but you can't go back - and having the one-time option to move an existing char there) and (hopefully) making better use of temp eq than Valk has - there's some really nice stuff there that I almost never see used.

Just my 2cents.

It seems like someone become bored w/o pthiefing and want to pkill some noobs. We have DoT and ET for pkill - why don't you get clannies and/or other 'brave followers' there for Legendary Slothwide Pkill Tournament 2007? You could stake your quest eq if you are ready for real challenge.


Cheers.

What is this about pkilling noobs? For the last time it is ILLEGAL to pkill people on Slothmud. I CAN do it now, almost anyone can, but you suffer repercussions. What we want is a fast-paced dangerous zone where it is
LEGAL to kill people. If pkilling were legal we would see a a larger sense of accountability in the trash talking. Just like in real life, if someone comes up
and starts talking shit, you hit 'em in the lip.

[Vixn]

You can kill me, if I don't mind
Well, at least if me and you want to fight we can do it in ET and DoT. We even could fight in BH city if we both have a will to do it.
I doubt any imm would wipe you if you killed me but I don't whine about it.
That's what I tried to say. Sorry my french is awful

p.s. You can kill people in RL. And probably you will think it's LEGAL. All you have to do is just enlist in army and go to Iraq.. or Chechnya.

Vixin made an excellent post, thank you.

Ante up the quest eq.

I think my issue with this concept of the continent is not the actual idea. Or even an Autolycos style player stabbing me into oblivion. Its all fun and a game up to that point. Its the few jerks that will use it to further vent their real llife short end of the sticks issues out on other players. And also further hogging more eq. Call it whatever positive word you might like to use to defend the actions. In a group based mud, its selfish behavior that really doesnt need to be there. Some of you do ruin the enjoyment of the game for the rest of the player base by your unecessary words and actions.

Some of you have multiple pieces of quest eq that you use, and in some cases vault and dont know what to do with. Most of the mud has no quest eq. And while you might have earned it, the "crybabies" you so often trash perhaps are tired of seeing the same small batch of people reap all the awards. Thus building a super reward continent just for you few, really doesnt pose much interest to the rest of the mud as a whole.

Im not going to argue about who deserves what awards, good educated player or bad player. Id just sooner see the immortals of sloth work on concepts that benefit the mud as a whole. Rather than a few bored out of their minds, cant pthief to get a rush, should have gone on to play another game players.

There are pk muds, if its so urgent to play in this style go take a challenge and play another mud if this one is so boring.

Chaos port, Chaos nights, ET, DOT, are established pk environments. If you want more, you should be paying a steep price to see it happen.
Not calling players pussies on the crier to get your way. If your so smart choose better language to negotiate your point.

PVP - Sure, I enjoy fighing pvp in arenas and during chaos nights. It's fun, but it's the novelty that draws my attention. We aren't usually rewarded or punished for winning or losing in the arena's, and players don't typically get pissed off or frustrated if they are killed on a chaos night.

I had a lot of discussion points to introduce, but it comes down to the fact that I have difficulty imagining how a pvp continent will draw players. The best argument I can provide is that Splork gossiped last night to see if there was any interest in a chaos event. We had 45 or 50 players online, and he didn't run the chaos due to lack of interest. I'm sure a pvp event can be fun and successful if it's a planned and scheduled event, but on a random night I'm sure noone would visit a pvp continent as it's been described so far.

What kind of B.S. is this? Maybe I should turn myself into an illegal mexican and cross the border and kill someone. Idiot.

Make that illegal alien who happens to be of Mexican persuasion. Most amigo's are actually decent people stuck in a bad situation. So not grouping those with the a$$holes who are the true criminals.
