the rules or lack of it... letting pk happen in the entire world for example despise? a dungeon that is made for noob charaters, and then the ubber skilled robber comes with his nice rp: "halt this is a robbery! *blabla for 30secs*" *X person is attackin you* what the hell is that?

and if isn't broken, why there are complaints?

Almost all complaints are becouse people don't like losing their gear and have learned that if they cry/whine hard enough they might get it back. Also, Occlo I believe is a safe haven for noobs.

Pangaea main description have always been "PVP allowed". The most recent "complain" was about illegal robbery where the robber was punished and gear returned. I still don't understand what rules are defending robbers?

looks like pvp is more allowed then rp..

maybe there isnt one rule directly defending and looks like your considering people with robbers charaters opinion more then others ("this is just another one whinning"), but i still dont understand why the fun of some players (pkers) got to ruin other players fun. If people want to steal/rob, why not to use stealing/snooping?

and whats the point of complaining to a GM? its not for the items, its the gaming time that is already lost with all that officialism...

perhaps you dont understand but there are players that aren't looking for pvp everytime they log and try to do something..

if isn't broken don't fix it then

We are talking about a RP shard so killing (knocking out) one person is a real punishment... I am taking no side in this matter but killing some guy in the middle of a forest or somewhere else is kinda a punishment and it is annoying for sure...
It's not punishment enough to change someone's gameplay. The aim is to make it such a pain in the ass that people have no choice but to join KoT. Even pretty dense characters will learn that people who are killed turn into ghosts that can be revived. Pain is temporary, gear is forever.

With this being an RP shard I really don't see someone becoming a ghost by being knocked out, by the way. That's death bro.

PvP is part of RP. Darion already told you.

There are different shards with different rules. Pangaea have had the same basic rules for 8+ years since the day Repsak and co opened it. Why is it suddenly a problem or something we should change? Everyone who plays here should be aware of the rules and the fact that PVP is allowed here. It's not a favoring or defending anyone but it's just the way Pangaea have always been and those who like it, play here, those who don't, can freely choose another shard.

right monad.. impossible argue with someone that has the "power" and just see whatever he wants to see...

PvP is part of RP? riiight... perhaps you could explain that better? or you just said it to look cool in the eyes of the staff?

Take Tekstone, we talk death and destruction alot but if we only hug and circle jerk at the end of the day thoose are empty words, however if we clear out a town and every player in there, thoose words have actions behind them.

Like Monad says the rules have never been a problem and in playing here we all have to accept them, if somebody don't agree with them make a post suggesting something better and if the staff agrees with you tada; change.
