Q&A - Robbery/RP Reason Kill&Loot

Post by Johnny Walac »

I saw that the .robber tag rule was still written on the Pangaea website. But the staff just removed it, everything good now. But I still got some questions about what changes really went down.

The questions come from this topic viewtopic.php?f=5&t=9124
ADDED: There are no rules in looting anymore. Everyone can loot each other as long as the RP is justified for the killing or if it's a robbery in the question. If a guild or some group of players are constantly looting and killing people without a stated robbery, war or clear RP reason, it's on GM's discretion to declare the group of players as robbers or not.
Reason: Looting rules were way too complex, this makes it more simple for everyone.
Q: If the group of players using RP reasons to kill&loot players get changed to robbers. Will the GM inform the religions about it through an RP post or something? Just to make sure the religion don't help the guild that wasn't robbers 1day ago but are now. (Example)
ADDED: Also keep in mind that aiding a enemy of certain guild/religion can be considered a valid RP reason to revenge on you.
Reason: To help determine what can happen if one decides to go and help his friends on a fight against the enemy.
Q: I take it the revenge part is a legal reason to kill&loot the person who helped the enemy guild whenever he/she is found.

1. Unclear cases are handled individually. We hope and expect players themself to take responsibility in identifying themselves or their group whether they're robbers or not.
2. If someone helps a guild or religion in a fight against someone, of course that carries a risk too. So yes that's good enough RP reason. What I don't like is your wording with "whenever he/she is found" though. Teach a lesson, but don't go personal/overboard.
