Q&A: Robber status

[Tyrion]

Tekstone is operated from a hidden city. The location of this city
is rumoured to be on an island away from the public. The city is
inhabitated by known murderers, robbers and thiefs, who the followers
of Tekstone understand and protect.

Im pretty much thinking about this. Why our RP is like that, if we cannot give them any protection from Wind, nor in battlefields. We cant use guards i.e if Nox is around and fighting against [insert the religion name here].

Religion RP as written on the forums (edited or not) is basically the origin of most of my RP IG. This is very important that it be written write. My guess, is that it will be edited and that the definition of robbers can still be applied to Tekstone because they have been known to associate with robbers, just not as out of the closet as recently. So it does apply depending on the point of view you are decided to see it from.

Edit1&2:If a religion robs with known robbing guilds: BoP, Nox, Telbs etc. how does that .robber status apply to them. Perfect, recent example that comes to mind is DMS being robbed this past weekend at Shame with BoP / Nox / Tek etc. My facts may be wrong and if so please correct them. However Tekstone characters being found robbing with members from guilds, listed above, is not too uncommon.

Stay on topic or be jailed.

What was the reason for this change?

[cridan]

once you have the status 'robber' how long do you have it for ?everytime you log on or once you have it you have it for life? how do you get rid of it and can you get rid of it? just to clear some stuff up for me

[Johnny Walac]

I got a red char who does not got the robber status as I havent requested for it.

Will I get robber status for killing and looting Guilds/Religions my Guild is at War with?
Will I get robber status for killing and looting Order of Law?
Will I get robber status for defending myself against my enemies? I am red so Law will attack me etc.

What was the reason for this change?

I may be thinking of only one answer to you; Balance.



Questions now;

Scenario 1;

A robbers along with B religion go and spread 'chaos' and they hit a blue (neutral) player and the A robbers like his items.
The victim refuses to interact with them and tries to flee.

1) Are the robbers allowed to kill/loot along with blue person?

Scenario 2;

A robbers along with B religion go and spread 'chaos' and they hit a guilded person player and the A robbers like his items.
The victim attacks the robbers because of the threats, but the A robbers and B religion attacks them as one and kill/loots him.
Previously mentoined guilded person was NOT in war status with B religion.
Previously mentoined A robbers were allied to B religion.

2) Are the B religion members allowed to loot the victim?

i just read the announcements. surely no one likes to be robbed, but isn't this too harsh for the robbers? they have no where to retreat to, and stone/wrong will probably happen more often.

basically, it's back to the old days of having a really hard time as red

Zaradon I asked the staff for their reasons and not your thoughts.

Thanks.

Well no. Back in the old days there wasnt a 3 Religion Alliance that fought against the robbers. It's actually harder now but with less loot.

Can we ask this new thing to be delayed until the 3D problem is fixed?

Robbers are being hunted with:
3D - unable to run away
Interdiction stone - unable to be gated away
no safe zone - unable to reach safety anywhere

What are 2D robbers supposed to do if a 3D player comes?
Imo this is too hardcore to implement while we have the 3D situation.
