My major problem with automatic punishments for PKing is that sometimes people deserve it. I don't see why a knight, for instance, should be punished for hunting down and killing someone who has violated the honour of a lady, or himself. I don't even protect newbies from being P-killed in Achaea. If a newbie has a smart-ass mouth and is insulting someone, he deserves to be brutalized, I feel, if that sort of vengeance is part of the insulted's character profile. > > Actually, given my 'equal right for NPCs stance', this should probably > apply to most peaceful mobs as well. Yeah, I always want to demand equal rights for NPCs, but the fact is, NPCs don't quit the game if they feel they are getting screwed over. --matt _______________________________________________ MUD-Dev maillist - MUD-Dev#kanga,nu <A HREF="http://www.kanga.nu/lists/listinfo/mud-dev">http://www.kanga.nu/lists/listinfo/mud-dev</A> </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <UL><LI><STRONG>References</STRONG>: <UL> <LI><STRONG><A NAME="00252" HREF="msg00252.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] The Relationship between pkers and monster AI?</A></STRONG> <UL><LI><EM>From:</EM> Mik Clarke <mikclrk#ibm,net></LI></UL></LI> </UL></LI></UL> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00255.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] The Relationship between pkers and monster AI?</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00257.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] The Relationship between pkers and monster AI?</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00252.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] The Relationship between pkers and monster AI?</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00276.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] The Relationship between pkers and monster AI?</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#00256"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#00256"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><STRONG>Re: Re[2]: [MUD-Dev] The Relationship between pkers and monster AI?</STRONG>, <EM>(continued)</EM> <ul compact> <ul compact> <LI><strong><A NAME="00249" HREF="msg00249.html">Re: Re[2]: [MUD-Dev] The Relationship between pkers and monster AI?</A></strong>, Travis S.
