    if this isnt a mistake, and it's pwi's way of encouraging people to enjoy PvP again (and give incentive to the bluenames on PvE servers to pk because you can target even whites as a blue name there and not drop items), they just made the game amazingggggggggggggg again

    However, this is an unintended bug and will more than likely be fixed in the coming days.b:bye

    Let's hope that something is done soon or the GMs make some sort of announcement about it being bannable if abused because tons of people on HT are in Sp right now flying and killing each other. Blue/White/Red names alike...

    Agreed... I was flying around (sorry GM's but I did it this morning just out of curiousness with no bad intentions before it was official that it was an actual glitch) and while I was wondering around suddenly a Sin came at me and started to attack me... Tried to log out fast but died annyway (got a res from friendly cleric outside)... But the thing that bothers me... What if some newby person wants to do his or her quests inside? They won't be able to with all the high-lvles waiting for easy one-shot... b:surrender

    Sounds like everyone is having fun. Let's hope the GMs take that into account when crafting rules.

    Yeah. I took my sin in there just to see what the world chats were about. Mass people from Enrage and GD killing all people, blue and white+ named =/ Something really ought to be done. This is borderline harassment/grieving.

    Fun can be had elsewhere, like outside west. This is killing of lowbies who are blue and just there to quest and bh. How is that any fun for a 104+ R8/9 +12 sin? I mean really? Does kill count mean that much to a person that they have to kill blue names in an already bannable place? This has to be a form of grieving...

    I don't defend killing lowbies but there is no other place where a group of friends can go and PK eachother without wasting guardian scrolls or being stuck in PK mode.

    The theater of blood is close but its only open for half an hour a day and has unrealistic buffs.

    There shouldn't even be any areas to pk without needing to be in pk mode and using scrolls/safety lock. You want to kill people you need to have consequences. Plus, we know how much PWE loves their money, and such an area would reduce scroll sales.

    I've been watching secret passage for over an hour now and there is tons of pk going on, despite the players knowing full well its been stated as to be bannable.

    Are you sure? I am still convinced this was intentionally implemented to give all of the lvl 105's something to do.

    Dmg log in gen chat, "Killed by" message, 1-2 sec tele time before you get spawned out.

    All my screenies have me lying dead in SP. Just be faster on the Screenshot trigger:)

    Yeah, I just went and ran a bh29 in there for some newbies, and that was a problem for the level 20 who needed some random mobs in there. They kept getting killed and getting ported out -_-; since they were new and thus bad at following the people who can kill the mobs in there so as not to get attacked. I ended up having to go back and get em but it sucked cuz I couldn't rez them. Highly annoying.

    anoying? no, this is heaven. and those 1-2 sec. because of lag, if your ping is good you dont see your corpse. you just instantly disapear. and its not even destroy guardian scrools. this is heaven guys.

    I mostly found it annoying trying to help the lowbie quests, I admit it would be nice if it was something that was contained in a specific room of SP and free to all. Like it seems like they are preparing it to be.

    There is another flaw in your logic. While the person gets instant tele'd out yes... However there are others nearby who are taking screenshots. even if the person dying doesn't get them, others will.

    @Asterelle-- I agree, they need to make a place like the theater of blood, only make it permanent and open at all times. It would be a great benefit for those who want to pk but either can't afford the scrolls/binding charms, or just for people to go and practice, or as you said pk with groups of their friends. It reminds me of cube sort of. Room 11 used to be camped then people would say "can't camp" anymore. Now you see no one in there unless they do cube.

    Perhaps, as you said, they should take this into consideration. I would be happy if they made a separate instance open all the time to pk people in without losing items. Shoot, I'd probably go in myself and pvp on my characters again!

    This,

    Honestly I think this would go unnoticed if they would open the original Arena, but since they haven't , this serves as a great substitute.

    theres no proof on others chat. like "you were killed by *somebody*" - this is the proof. so they not really able to do that. these rules have no logic anyway.

    It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that if someone is attacking someone else and there are only 2 people in the room outside safe zone, that whoever disappears first is obviously the dead man and the person alive is the one who killed him...

    so can u take screenshot of that disapearing? after kill left only one, so who cares if you take a foto of that one? you need to shot killing proces somehow or fraps it all :D

    but whatever, reality is like that - I just from SP of LC and theres tons of ppls who killing each other. tons of red, white, even blue names who hapily killing each other. I really doubt somebody there care to take screens of all those funs. and I really doubt GMs will be able to ban them all.

    You answered your own question as far as the screenshots go. GG.

    Regardless of who's having fun... its still against ToS to abuse a glitch. The fact that others could get caught in the crossfire isn't a good thing. Lots of low levels go in there for quests. If it wasn't such a huge questing/bh area, I honestly don't think anyone would say anything at all, which to that fact, I wouldn't either.. Its just annoying watching all of the lowbies getting one shot on their way to bh because of people that purposely are killing someone else, or actually want the lowbies dead.
