ok so this is all my opinion but im going based off of what i see there have been many a times people in secret passage have been killed (i myself included when fonderton tries to escort one of his toons via dual account drazeo my cleric who is on a different account) i never dare report these things normally because i kill back and also note that if your in pk mode even in secret passage you are not bannable because consent is given WITHOUT typing or saying anything because if you are in pk mode they cannot ban even if you complain several times over because consent is already given upon normal pk rules however in all cases of my escorts i constantly see players aoe and i get one shotted at times by r9 and stronger let me say there are times in which accidents can occur but the gms decide what is bannable even if they do not respond to this it is always ultimately their own decision on everything (and if they want to correct me if i am wrong they must decide to do so) and lets also say that even in accident if the player does not give consent he or she who did the kill even if by aoe should be banned i sometimes go into passage just to farm the molds and instead get 1 shotted i take screen shots alot but then delete them because of what i see others say they send in screen shots alot but those users are never banned while there may be many technical reasons behind banable and non banable it is the gms own decision to ban and to be honest its just like law enforcement even if they aren't doing their jobs people must report it in order to do anything basically the best thing to do if you need qingzi of fb29 is use the illusion stone in arch to teleport directly there avoiding all that pk madness its very easy to earn 5k in this game and im sure you can sell stuff to get the 5 k easily i mean those who are also level 29ish approx can also do a friggen quest to get 5k in maybe 1 quest if lucky while yes it is very lame i believe secret passage pk should be placed in cave of glee that way if low levels go there you should expect to be pked my fonderton is level 84 while im not an easy 1 shot i can easily stun and avoid pk by fleeing using either cloud sprint or will of the bousta (not all spelling is perfect fyi)while yes there are a few quests inside glee at least theres not pking of low levels who can most likely be one shotted and defense less and theres also no dungeon inside glee the cave of glee is the dungeon and its pretty higher in level then secret passage also (as a request to the gms in general) if your gonna make a rule of pwi make sure you enforce it on every1 and not just 1 specific user and maybe make some security mechanisms in case you do want to pk like maybe safe pk (meaning pkable only in dungeons) can be turned on at will and turned off at will or only upon leaving the dungeon or can be afflicted by a timer just like before with regular pk

to sum this all up
1 enforce rules better be a gm and not a friend (while it is ok to have friends they should still be able to follow the rules of your game)
2 allow pking in cave of glee instead of secret passage that way low levels are technically not supposed to be there and those who pk others in glee the questers can run away from more easily
3 create a safe mode for pk as in when safe mode pk is turned on or off user is only pkable in dungeons (only can be turned on and off while out of pk mode) pk is disabled upon leaving the dungeon aka getting teleported back to town will also cause pk to be disabled this means that only pking can only occur inside the dungeon for those who WILLINGLY turn it on in safe mode or regular mode safe mode pk can also function as a learning zone for those who want to pk (safe mode pk should also ignore the regular pk rules as safe mode pk should already protect low level users from pk from high levels (aka only allow pking on users about your level can also be an option to adjust this setting while out of pk mode)

just my ideas to help better pwi on the subject of pking i also made this public so that any users who want to add their own input may do so

    to sum this all up

    2 allow pking in cave of glee instead of secret passage that way low levels are technically not supposed to be there and those who pk others in glee the questers can run away from more easily

    There are players who still do the few quests and bosses that are found in that place. Allowing PK there would make that crowd complain. They should just re-open the arena or create a new one using a remake of the Theater of Blood - just give everyone who enters the Mayhem in Morai event buff to prevent any sort of loss upon death.

    3 create a safe mode for pk as in when safe mode pk is turned on or off user is only pkable in dungeons (only can be turned on and off while out of pk mode) pk is disabled upon leaving the dungeon aka getting teleported back to town will also cause pk to be disabled this means that only pking can only occur inside the dungeon for those who WILLINGLY turn it on in safe mode or regular mode

    If you're on a PVE server and you enter PK mode, then you should be adequately prepared to handle what comes your way and use Safe Zones and Guardian Scrolls. PK mode is not supposed to be safe outside of that (which is why there's a warning for it).


    safe mode pk can also function as a learning zone for those who want to pk (safe mode pk should also ignore the regular pk rules as safe mode pk should already protect low level users from pk from high levels (aka only allow pking on users about your level can also be an option to adjust this setting while out of pk mode)

    Duels and PK practicing with others around your level/gear can be done in the vastly remote open world too if you want to practice. A 24 hour arena would also be a good place to practice if one is made.

    PWI said in their notification: PKing in Secret Passage is prohibited or against the TOS of this game.

    Why can't you just fix your code? Is it hard for you to avoid PK inside SP? This is totally annoying for those lowlevel ppl that cannot do their quest inside because of these stupid R9s and some stupid players there waiting for their kill.

    Please fix it in the name of the game! errr!

    Im sure you have a fabulous idea, but i cant read it. Please use sentences and break up that giant paragraph sentence. Everytime i try reading it i get cross-eyed.
