Umm What is with all the grave robbing? 08/19/2016 12:33 AM CDT
Just curious, but I have recently come back in the last few months, after a four year break, and grave robbing then selling what you steal seems to have become the in thing to do. When did this happen? I remember grave robbing being something that sparked hours and hours of pvp and lynch mobs that usually ended with whatever GM was unlucky enough to be on at that time making the thieves give the items back. Soooo what changed?

Just curious...

New set of trolls. You'll likely meet them here in a day or two when they find out about this thread and come to gloat.

>>If you are atk you won't leave a grave. The only people defaulting to the one favor depart are afk and I don't feel bad for them.

If you autodepart it defaults to the max favors you have available.

Yes, because nothing is more fun than OOC stuff being used as a reason to kill people in game. Good times.

>With all the changes made to this game to make it easier to keep your stuff, I just really, REALLY find it hard to believe that people still type depart.

There is also spirit death and the fact that it blocks resurrection (in addition to greatly reducing the time before departing unless there is someone to heal spirit), which is why the players of Aftermath, Cibym (and probably others) use it (in addition to it doing a good job of killing characters), to force people to use favors, so that they will eventually leave graves.

They then often kill people repeatedly, because you can't change your PvP stance from open unless you stay alive for an hour.

Which then ties back to the whole graverobbing policy and how it's really not as simple to avoid all of this as some people seem to think when there are groups of people organized around achieving this end, unless you're actively expecting it.

Graverobbing seems to be far LESS common than it was in the past, probably because you'd have to be an idiot or afk to get graverobbed with the new depart mechanics.

The only issue with your post is that gms are getting involved. They should not be involved if policy is not broken. Graverobbing is completely avoidable through favors and if you have a high end weapon you care for, bonding potions.

I expected more from you Harlot, all things considered.

Again, this is a folder for discussion on Grave Robbing policy. If you have a complaint about a player due to their actions against you, those get handled in game by assists.

I'm going back to review the posts in this discussion.

If it's not specific to the Grave Robbing Policy, it's going to be removed.

If you're reading and that's one of your posts, quick, delete it.

Continuing to post off topic results in you earning yourself a time out from the forums.
