Do me a favor.
Take a mirror, take a look and tell that to yourself too ya
My concience tells me that I'm quite good. But I guess that's human nature, no matter where you stand you'll always tell yourself you're on the "good" side.
Here comes my reply and don't blame me.
Who cares about your reasoning or excusing. You sounded to guiding players what is KS and what is isn't ? Or it there a such things called bad KS, extreme bad KS, polite KS, innocent KS or your so called SO-SORRY KS ?
Who cares.........................................................
No, I'm not trying to dictate what's good and what is not.
I'm saying what my experience tells me what is a natural occurance (shooting another player's mob) and what is good (leave it be to, let the other player loot it, if he can't can't say "sorry")
And people have already replied to you with how that could go wrong.
Safe and sound? No, your suggestion is a concern.
Moral values shift in time and place. I'm an old player, make no mistake about that. My moral values might be odd when taken into a new light. However, I would like to see you experience hunting Punies when it's not about killing one and then another but 1-2-3-4-.....-100-.....-200. See how you think about "kill stealing" then.
What? I don't get what you're suggestion here at all. You I may should be in red because I "KS" a few mobs at Camp Icarus lately? And then I should 'clean' my name before a grand jury? I shot two or three mobs today that were shot by other players. Boo-hoo. What do you want me to say? I hunted too fast? I'm not too blame, it's the "next target" that is at fault? Damn you, I hardly look at Caly.Forum at all. So I couldn't care less what you think about me and my action ingame for 1 second.
My reputation is 1009, that means 9 people voted to give me a +rep ingame during an event. I join such a event like twice a year. And every participant has one vote to up another players reputation. And you want to destroy all that with "come here to forum and explain what went 'wrong?"!?
Besides, who deceides if it's a KS or an accident? You? No way, I'm already labeled "bad" by you, am I not? A court of respectable high level players? Nah, they have better thing to do, like playing the game. MindArk? Nope, can't seem them getting bothered by your petty problems eithers. They have a whole universe to manage and 1000's of players to keep happy. They value every one of us, I think. But I dare you to report any player for KS'ing your puny.
No, you're not wrong about saying it. You're wrong about the concequenses. Do you whine and go to the police when some dude stole your candy?
Besides, in the end, yes this a game. Take it as entertainment. See it as going the movies and paying for the ticket and pop corn. Do you go all ape break when some body accidently bumps into you and you spill a couple of pop corns?
PS. I realize that I might sound like a "I know it all, because I'm here longer then you"-type of guy. But in all honesty I'm trying not to be. Give the game some time - a year or longer - and the actions of our fellow players as well. Some people are jerks, no doubt about that. Yet the majority is all right in my opinion. I'm past the problems of those who come here for the first time and my own experience is fastly difference from what it is now. But still, bottom line, try to place yourself in the other person. Did he do it on purpose or not?
I'm convinced that in time your (OP) perception will change too. A year, maybe two or ten. This game is taking long to progress in anything. And you wil learn lesson in RL as well too.
Have a good time, and please don't bother too much about other players shooting your mobs. To me it sounds like you're complaining to the school headmaster that an 8-grader ate your mentos.
