Seriously whoever sent the link to the chinese for this server must have known it was a bad idea, what happened on all the private servers they went onto? Ended up griefing everyone, on 24hrs a day, fast forward 6 months and this server will be empty apart from them.

What I find striking is the amount of hate there is on this server between players, guilds and different nationalities. It does not even come across as banter or role play, it is full scale hate to the point where people just want to ruin other peoples experiences of the game.

I haven't had any problems with the chinese, if you're in a guild which purposely targets them for PKing then expect to be PKed back.

Sure some of them mob steal but this has only happened to me if i've had 3+ wraiths on me and with how busy pit can get i don't mind this as it speeds up respawns.

"BLACKHAT"People should simply start recording videos, then you can punish them specifically. However i'm not moaning, i'm not a pker :)

I must say I have never had a problem with the Chinese. If anything on a couple of occasions a couple of the well known ones have helped me out

All these comments about the 'Chinese' in general are giving off the wrong impression to new players and people who haven't yet interacted with them. It also gives off bad vibes to some of the very friendly pinoys and other Asian countries who are playing.

Rivalries are always bound to happen in soma. You have to deal with it.

Onaga I don't think you understand the problem. Multiple times on this server I have personally been harassed by these petty tactics. You must be aware that the big multis on this server have throwaway characters. Well over 20 hours of people mob stealing, slowing and tracing me to each spawn to do this. You cannot PK these characters because it simply does not matter if they die 1000 times.
PK for PK is fine with me, but constant harassment like this is just to the game's detriment. Also the action needs to be directed at the actual culprits not these worthless characters that they log on to.

This is a very important point there are several characters: abcd mvp_langzi, sns and maybe others i dont know about, who are just "throwaway" chracters

They will just come along spam slow / weaken you whatever and have no care or attention to however many times you kill them as they are just unused chars (Maybe the multis of Style / Leo ect)

So realistically speaking you cant do anything to them, killing them thye will revive all day.
Ban them? So what? They dont even use that char, they ONLY use it for harassment or carrying pots to their main chars, whilst another multi is playing on it. It will be unbanned 2 days later and they will do the same thing again without any actual loss..

Something other than that should be done to combat this tbh., because the right now the system in place doesn't work.

Is it possible to force a warp back to town after dying say 3~5 times within a short period?

I think this would work well for new players, people getting griefed and these Chinese guys harassing people.

For example;

New player goes to lich's dies 3 times, 4th time warps back to town with no drops.
Noob chars made to slow and weaken would get sent back to town making it annoying to keep running back.

I see so many ideas being posted on these forums but rarely anything changed. I guess it did take 5 odd or even more years to get here.

Some form of pvp "range" control should be added, I think I remember a private server having this.

So you can only initiate (in race) pvp with players in band with your level like +-5 levels.

Also potentially, revisit how and how long "criminal" activity is reflected. The current moral system recovers so quickly that "criminal" activity is not hard to undo like it was on slower servers.

Never ever had a problem with the chinese, Ive never bothered them and they never bother me.

The issue seems to be that some people don't like the Chinese so therefore they start pking them or mob stealing them and calling them names Like "chink" etc, Every has heard it and seen it.

The Chinese never steal my mobs and i never steal there's. They have never ever been bothered about me.

Its the obvious people who dont like them so pk them then cry about it when they get it back at them..

Learn to get along with them and play with them or play against them and dont moan

Everyone has a choice. Make yours.
