So, why the change on PK rules in SP?
Comments

I don't understand why people attempt to make such a distinction between 'choosing' to go white on a pve server and the supposed 'helplessness' against being pked on a pvp server. People who chose to play on a pvp server made just as coherent a choice to be white named as a person on a pve server, there is little difference. What I understand even less is people that roll on a pvp server and say they don't like to pk. Seriously wtf. In either case you made a choice to be in a position to be killed and pk'ed at times that you would rather not be pk'ing.0

"
Can't PK in Secret Passage if you're keeping players from doing their Cultivation Quests.
Other than these two instances, I believe PK is fine as long as it doesn't become harassment, which would involve following a specific character through multiple zones, pk-ing relentlessly.
"
But now it's changed to
"Killing players in Secret Passage is not allowed, no matter what the circumstances are."?
Because enough wana-be tough guys on PvE server end up getting owned then QQ about it? So if a level 100 red runs into Secret Passage out of SZ, they have a GM given protection? You might as well make that place a SZ then.
im not sure where harshlands pvp spots are but in LC secret passage is a very major pk zone0 -

Too many people QQing and sending tickets of "I was white named on PvE server/I rolled on a PvP server, and someone killed me in SP, ban plz."[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Im on a PvE server but I agree this sounds just stupid,you don't need SP for Cultivation(Apart from the lv.100 one),seriously its not like preventing those to finish their cultivation 29 in Heaven's tear,if you need BH29 use the damn teleport stoneb:surrenderWTB>More Fash

Just take out PvP on all servers, should solve the problem.0

This is stupid. If they're going to ban for pking in certain places, make those places SAFE ZONES, doesn't take a rocket scientist to work that out. Plus, if they're gonna complain about being pked ANYWHERE, Roll on a PvE server.0

This is just an example of GM's caving in to the pressure of QQ as well as not knowing how to apply any semblance of consistency between themselves. They're overworked, underpaid and definitely not up to the task even if they weren't overworked or underpaid. Training is pretty important with any job, and it's quite apparent that they don't get any of that, or discipline... seeing how everything is so inconsistent on their 'ruling's' in-game that reflect their mood or the time of day...I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.0

Most of the ones submitting tickets and QQing are from PvE servers strangely enough.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

As far as i'm concerned, PWE need to spend more time banning the real rule-breakers, the ones who scam people, than they do on people who are PvPing people who have allowed themselves to be pvp'd0

Sweet Caroline!
Where it began, I can't begin to know when
But then I know it's growing strong
Oh, wasn't the spring, whooo
And spring became the summer
Who'd believe you'd come along
Hands, touching hands, reaching out
Touching me, touching you
Oh, sweet Caroline
Good times never seem so good
I've been inclined to believe it never would
And now I, I look at the night, whooo
And it don't seem so lonely
We fill it up with only two, oh
And when I hurt
Hurting runs off my shoulder
How can I hurt when holding you
Oh, one, touching one, reaching out
Touching me, touching you
Oh, sweet Caroline
Good times never seem so good
Oh I've been inclined to believe it never would
Ohhh, sweet Caroline, good times never seem so good0 -

Srsly bro, why do you care? Do you get PK'd in there? Do you your self PK in there?
If so, for shame, you dishonor your family....b:sad
Is it really so hard to just accept that this is the way it is now? Damn, why does everyone need everything decision explained and justified? Just play the game or gtfo.
GM's, /thread, this is going nowhere...0 -

1. it was probably my "****" thread, thank you troll for reminding
2. i knew it was forbidden to pk in SP so did my friend (thats why he sent screenshots in the first place). But since i couldnt find a thread with the statement anymore i played along with the argumentation of someone else "only if you need culti there is forbidden"
3. it was haressement, since he asked like 6 times not to pk him, or pk after the boss is dead, since squad is alreeady killing him. If you dont call it haressement, i wonder if you have real friends.
4. here, you still maybe dont know it yet due all your arrogance and ignorance, i quote it with pleasure for you

As it stands today (and for the past few months), PK in Secret Passage is not allowed under any circumstances.
Why isn't it a safezone then?
Adding a safezone is a 5 minutes work for a developer. If it wasn't fixed for all these years then there is a reason for no SZ in there.
Developer is higher ranked employee than a GM, we must obey developer's vision. GM shall not set up rules against developer's vision as it would be against Terms of Service of the game.
I expect no reply from GM to this post.Packs World International0 -

Agree. An I believe that SP should be a safe zone actually, but it is not cuz of a bug. Anyway, GMs should give an ultimate rule there and stop changing it once and for all.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Meh, SP used to be a PK hotspot in Sanc back in like 08/09, but I kind of like west gate and silver pool better for pvp. Seems like more epic air fights there. I deleted holy path off my genie cause I didn't have the affinity nor did I find it necessary in most pvp situations, other than to chase down someone for a kill. Red sprint and cloud sprint good enough.
Rofl, found this on my xfire from like 2 years ago. Back before packs and the 5APS craze.

Can't believe I'm wasting the time to type this, but...
The rule only changed because Frankie originally mispoke about the rule, after speaking with other staff (presumably frankies boss), editted to the current rule of under no circumstances is PK allowed in SP.
Punishment is obvious, same as doing anything else against the rules. Decided at a GM's discreation based on individual circumstance. If you get reported for doing it once, apologize and "claim" not to know the rule, I'm sure they will be fairly leniant. If they believe you are doing it in spite of the rule, and repeatedly, they can of course adjust the punishment all the way up to an outright ban.
Obviously they aren't going to ban everyone who breaks rules on a whim, they don't want to lose players. But if you prove yourself to be an idiot and more of an irritation than you're worth to have around, well.....0 -

what, pray tell, is the reason the entrance corner of cube room #1 is not a safe zone?
yeah, fixing it might just be a five minute job. the devels ARE, in fact, THAT incompetent. face facts.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC] Heaven's Tear alts: KenLubin, Sou_Hon, JudyCaraco --- level 5x chars.0 -
Why was Secret Passage even popular for PK to begin with?I am Olba. Not Ol, not Baze nor Blaze. And even less would I go by Olblaze. Please, take a second to read a person's username.
If you see b:cute be sure to take a second, calm look at anything I said.0 -
Olbaze - Sanctuary wrote: »Why was Secret Passage even popular for PK to begin with?
it became populuar because people didnt have to watch their backs... it's a very narrow opening to enter the pk zone so easy to see who comes in and out compared to somewhere like west arch or silverpool -- you have to look from all angles, even above you...0
