Anyhow guys, this topic has gone long enough.
Enuff with the rants and badgerings..
Im sincerely forwarding my apologies if everyone feels that Im such a whiner for bringing a discrepancy up to crier.
For me, I would have expected
(1) Someone to tell me off
"Hey jerk, you are killing my runs, can u git ?"
"I got here first, do you mind ?"
"I have been cycling this, I want the spot back after this mob"
etc..etc..
(2) Let me finish off the mob and tell me off 1)
(3) If the mob didnt load, "Thanks for killing it, saves me 1 run"
(4) If the mod did load, "Thats was my run, can I have the item"
In any circumstances, I would have finished killing the mob and got myself out of anyones way, and if it did pop, hand over the item ( if it wasnt Personal flag ).
And yes Trajan, I did notice the thugs that was charmed out of town around Autumnal ( identifies someone was cycling area ).
Thats why I always do a 'Where' cmd to see who is in map.
And when I saw no-one, I solo-ed holy cleric, wandering kender, and 3 punks which I use embalm corpse for peri etc.
In that whole time, no one came back to Autumnal, which I assume was free for my taking. The seeker was in 'Excellent Condition' even if u did a 2-run to regen and kill him. To me, it was identified as no one touched him, just repop, and time to kill him.
But the moral of story here isnt about breaking someones run, stealing loots, player killing or hashing it out with each other over tells/reply with harassment or unproductive arguments, until someone has to quit and make 'secret' chars.
I was just trying to make a point to the public, that anyone can manipulate the system by a simple use of recall. And since there is no argumentative definition of a rule to using that 'exploit', there is also no pre-defined penalty for using it. So anyone can get away with it ?
To the folks, yea yea, you would do any of the above mentioned 'just for fun' and laugh over it in ctalk, gossip, tells etc. But thats because you have been here long enough to joke around with each other as a token of friendship.
When two newbies or strangers, who have never interacted with each other do, its a whole different story.
Give it a rest, time to forgive and forget. Aplogies have been made, and I hold no grudges against Trajan. Im sorry if the Immortals had to take a step into this dispute. Im not into mud-politics, but all I ask for, from players is fairplay, courtesy and practise good etiquettes.
Finally, my apologies to Imm staffs, Trajan and the people of Sloth for any inconvenience caused.
