Weak and sad.

Your fingers get VERY quick once you get a kill in PK for loot.
So why not direct those fingers to PvM aswell?

Yeah..so annoying to take all the gems and regs one by one..if the quantity is 6+, then its cool to take, but less than that is annoying as hell! Such command would be great : P

You'd make PvM less painful if you can implement such a thing- and at least you could in a way differentiate between those who're using scripts to loot in PvP etc.

To be honest, it won't require any more work than it does now. Even if looting script is forbidden in PvP now and always has been, we have no guarantees that someone isn't using them as we speak. Even if it was allowed in PvM, it would still be illegal in PvP thus requiring the same amount of supervision as it does now. It would actually mean less work for GMs when they don't have to observe PvM that closely - only PvP.

And what comes to that command. Yes, that would be nice if it could be restricted to NPC-loot only.

A command like that or the loot tablets should be simplified. Instead of monsters carrying all kind of non-magic junk items, they'd only carry gold, the few magic items and reagents and gems. And what comes to reagents and gems, instead of each monster having one of each, they'd have quantities of 5-10 of one or two reagents. Perhaps despise should drop all kind of random junk as well, because newbies might need those items/sell them.

I play here for years and I never used or needed such thing.. this kind of discussion makes me think alot of you are using such tools wich makes me feel that i have some kind of disadvantage now. I think severe punishments should happen to all those who are caught using it and i can't believe such topic is even beeing discussed.

I've broken a few left mousebuttons due to excessive clicking... :P
Not talking about the medical conditions excessive clicking can give ya even.

Anyhow, I agree with Darian.
