Town Slaying

Post by Kreegan »

I have witnessed an attack in the town of Troll's Bane resulting in the death of a character. How does one go about reporting it. I could not find any help on this.

You have to seperate two things: A valid, roleplayed kill or an unjustified, random kill. When you witnessed the latter, send an email with as many informations (date, time, character numbers, log entries, maybe screenshots) to violations@illarion.org. But in most cases, you witnes a valid kill. Your character may contact the local authorities (ingame or see guild board, entry about Troll's Bane) or pay the murderer his well earned bounty, whatever suits your character best.

If there was no RP reason for the attack, you either:

And contact a game master

or while in the game

!gm [message to the gms]

So for example !gm I've been PKed by 1234567890, bla bla bla

I sent an email to the adress Estralis Seborian provided. I was nice in game, I rped my attack a bit while looking for help since it had never happened to me before and I had no clue what to do. I even ran into the guy that killed me in the workshop while trying to figure out what to do, and merely pointed at him as I knew I wouldn't be able to do anything about it. I had no clue about the !gm command so I logged off and came here...

If you act like that you are equally guilty as the aggressor and you have to reckon with an admonishment.
The best way is to contact violations@illarion.org or a gm directly with the !gm call.

FIrst: Its *Sir*

Second: Maybe it was meant humouring, but do you think its funny to run after Newbies Pking every one because they listened to foosers smart and helpful "only" answer?

No its not.

If a new player could misunderstand your words I'm pretty humourless.

If a newbie can't logically tell that Fooser was being humorous, then I don't think he has the ability to be a successful member of a roleplaying community, but that's just my 2 cents.

Oh and, my convictions utter that it's a ma'am. Be it a ma'am or a sir, I'll call Arien a ma'am.

1324099621 just killed 803049833(5-10 minutes ago)

I think this guy's only reason for playing is just killing newer/weaker players who are killing pigs and he doesn't RP his attacks :(

O.o would be better if you knew some of the guard in TB, or had a few friends who knew how to use a weapon..

if someone PKs you and you notify GMs, you wont get the lost skills and items back.
if you beef up a bit, enough to push off the aggressor, or stick to crowded areas where people can defend you, you will keep your skills and stuff.
Always best to be prepared, never assume you're 100% safe, i guess.
If youre in a building, keep an eye on the doors.

And I suggest to simply log out if anyone attacks you without RP.

The second step is to inform the GM's.
