I've searched the forums but couldn't find a GM/Mod's response to this question. Please let me know, if it is bannable?

There are 3 10x PKers camping PQ right now so basically no one can finish off this round.

    It could be since it not allowing players to do quests, but I have not heard any official GM response about this issue.

    Thanks for the quick reply. :) And I I entered a chat with Customer Support and was told Player Killing is allowed everywhere but Secret Passage and Room 1 of the Cube.. So I guess we have to go with that >_<

    NO. Read below:
    Being PK'ed is part of the game on PVP servers, and it's not a violation unless they're stopping you from doing spiritual cultivation quests at length.

    True, but it you can still get banned for constantly PKing someone (Like 3 or more times) without allowing them to do their quests, so you could send a ticket if you want or not.

    This +1, change servers if you feel its not fair. Or better yet, teem up with the other people doing PQ and kill the pkers.

    A good moderator should:
    - Have the computer skills necessary to handle forum-related tasks (Web skills, basic programming)
    - Be patient to handle all sorts of requests
    - Be level-headed to keep discussions and some petty squabbles in check.b:cool

    A good way is to world chat about the PKers and there will usually be bored 10X to come help.

    No, suck it up, and stop thinking someone should get banned everytime you get PKed.

    I'm not QQing, just asking a question.. <_< And was explaining WHY I asked the question..

    And it IS bannable to PK in Secret Passage and Room 1 of the Cube, according to the Customer Support Representative I chatted with.

    PK in Secret Passage is only bannable if they are killing you repetitively while trying to get your culti done.

    If you're going through there trying to help a BH, you're open game.

    Rules governing PK in Secret Passage have been relaxed as of late, as it should be. It was far too strict before.

    Pking in Room 1 of Cube is bannable no mater what situation it is.

    Pking in Secret Passage is bannable if you prevent low lvls from doing quests or culti. (Like what Micheal_Dark said in the earlier post.)

    No its ONLY
    Spiritual Cultivation Kill: This mob (0/9001)
    that will get you banned if you keep people from doing it, everything else is fair game

    PKing in PQ be perfectly fine.
    Just make sure to either pass through after a short amount of time or camp there *but only for max ~1 hour or so*. (Tis not griefing if they come to you....actually technically that would be them attempting to grief you.)

    b:chuckle
    And since PQ be a completely optional quest. (like oracles) tis not bannable.

    Nope.... I was getting pked the other day continously at public quest by a 9x sin from (unmentionable rpk harshlands faction). There was a 99 bm there who kept fighting him and I gave up on my quest and hyper to fight him but lets face it... Even on the 7x bm.... a 9x sin has the upper hand with the whole demon spark stun out of stealth thing going for him... Then the trash talking... Eh I just put the game away for awhile then submitted a ticket with ss of all 15 times I was pked (before I started fighting back) at quest... response was nope not against the rules your on your own. its allowable to anyone anywhere over lvl 30... Kinda sucks when it comes to that knowledge but eh... I got a list I am making of the nooblets and some day vengeance will be mineb:victory

    How many people were doing PQ anyway? 3 or 4 or something?

    Surely you could all just team up, call in any friends you all have who can help, and drive them away? 3 isn't exactly an army. =/
    I assume the problem is (like a lot of PK ganks/camping), one person probably got PK'd at a time and the rest stood there like headless chickens trying to be unnoticeable until they eventually got PK'd off too.

    In my case there was 8 of us doing quest (I was the highest lvl doing the quest) and a 99 bm that would over head watching for the pker. He would wait till we started fighting the mobs again then come out of stealth one hit back to stealth move to next person one hit back to stealth... or someone like me who was charmed with high defense and all he would stun and take a few extra hits to kill me... then everyone attacked him if they could get to him in time. I will say he was using the assasin as a ninja move should be and if I hadn't been trying to lvl up on hyper there and was looking for the fight the hunt and anticipation would have been so much fun. But in this case going through a platinum charm and about 25 guardian scrolls on a fight I never wanted... Yea... I am complaining to much lol....


    The point is people did try to fight him but lvl 60's against a 90+ ( I know this cause of the demon spark and his faction only recruits 95+) demon assasin just isn't gonna work. only ones that could do damage to him was me (if I managed to hit him) and the 99 fist bm ( I know he was 99 because I teamed him so I wouldn't aoe him or vise versa)

    People have been PKing PQ ever since it came out. Think on the terms of the "new generation" of 10x. I mean the "I Hyper/Oracle spammed my way to 90 and then did all my culti's yesterday, demon/sage spark lolololol" types.

    "lm@O nab i can k33l 2 gEt uzelezz pee kay countz up. +12!?!?!?11one?!?!?1"


    Now, a 10x who was there in the time of "I had to farm my entire lunar set, you can all kiss my 10x behind" will be lurking for oracle nabs somewhere out near the Jade Shores or out near the Wraithgate someplace. In Harshlands, most of your 10x's are TT 3-3ing (oh wait, never mind, devs OP'd it, my bad,) Nirvanaing (oops, no, they're not,) or hanging around in Zulu. (Or Blackfox. Or maybe Kylin if it's still breathing.)

    Basically, in a PvP server you do this during PQ

    -Accept
    --Solo part 1 because nobody is ever around
    ---Get pwnt by random passerby.
    -Rinse, Wash, Repeat.
    --Get pissed and leave area.
    Boom-shakalaka!

    IF PQ on PvP servers is anything like PQ on PvE servers, its a veritable AoE fest damage race - likely people die just from that alone o.0.

    Well the chrono chain can be considered a cultivation quest. You can't get the level 100 fairy without getting to at least moonshade desert and that requires you to kill silverfrost at one point. Technically there is a culti quest in secret passage then.

    The aoe's don't hit people unless 1. uncheck our guards or 2. for the oh **** moments on pkers press and hold left ctrl key (which is my push to talk button on vent so sometimes is a oops)

    Except that they don't seem to hold the rule on boss quests, so that isn't what they were referring to. One of my alts had a party that was half in PK mode and they were killed a few times when we were trying to kill Frost. Never did get the boss, but apparently it wasn't bannable. They were told it was only bannable to grief the low level players doing their normal mob quests in there, or to keep them from getting to the FB. I think when they wrote that they were probably just thinking of the FB as culti (since for some, the boss actually is... can't remember about FB29 though).

    That's true, but most people by that time wouldn't have to worry about PKers much, because usually at least one person tanking or being involved with killing silverfrost would most likely be able to fight back.

    And yes, I did forget Silverfrost. I do consider the whole Past Culti to be cultivation. b:avoid.

    I have mostly been playing on a private server but I got bored, I'm sitting at 94% with a crazy stone quest I could finish so I can level but I don't want to lol. I have sorta just got bored with games pretty much, I guess it's just my time to put up my keyboard and stop playing games all for good it's not all the healthy anyways.
