Don't get me wrong; glad you recovered.

However, if this was not due to any bug in the game (and was player self - inflicted through bad choice in bind spot / afk), it should be player resolved, not guide resolved.

Players will and did readily respond to the call for help. This is what builds community and I feel like Guide intervention both cheapens the community's own efforts to build itself as well as crosses the line of Guide interference in normal play.

If the death loop was truly due to bug, I retract all above.

I tend to agree with this, although Sirken saved half my ass when i got deathlooped. I also dislike GM run events where people are threatened with a ban if they interfere with the event. Thats not what a sandbox game is to me. GM efforts in my mind should go towards making the sandbox flourish. Like spawning mobs somewhere for 6 hours with a simple yellow message and letting the players sort it out themselves.

In order to correct this misaligned "help" that the OP received, please rebind him where he was and commence with the death loop. Allow the community reach out to this soul. It will make us stronger, better, and may even aid in increasing population as the good guides so intended.

[Cymeon]

didnt you start like yesterday bob? how the hell you in permafrost already?


also, aussie = drakar for the luls

[citizen1080]

Aoeing with a bard so I'm tearing thru lvls=). As for the gm help, if it was just a cr I could understand your concern. Death loops are pretty much worst case scenario in eq and I see no issue with gm intervention. In fact on live I had a gm help me in a similar scenerio. Guess I didn't learn my lesson lol.

There must be more to the story. Getting summoned out of a death loop is one thing, GM rez for being an idiot another.

[MC Epic]

I'm not so sure there was any more to the story.

Seriously guys, death loop is something we can and do help with. Go find some kid to steal candy from or something.

[Kazi]

Should we /petition or send you a tell directly next time we need a rez?

[Kergan]

I'd send a tell directly - makes it easier to /rt + /ban.

[karsten]

heyyyyyyy bob's playing on red




nice

[no chewie dont]

guides picking and choosing who to help and who to ignore? nothing new

[MC Epic]

naw; this thread's choking, let it die.

Guide Aussie had precident for this call and did what he believed to be right in the circumstance. Can't argue that.

[no chewie dont]

yeh theres def precedent
they help who they want and ignore who they dont want to help
nothing new

[HippoNipple]

Chewie just learned a life lesson from elf sim : )

[no chewie dont]

OP seems like a good candidate for azrael
THEM GM REZZES NAMEEN LALS

[Kazi]

I do think this incident calls for senior staff response. If I die from user error can I get a GM rez?

i fucking hate this guy. am i the only one?

[Tzeriel]

i fucking hate this guy. am i the only one?

Hate is stupid for a video game. The guy is a volunteer, voluntering his time. I think he is misguided and doesn't prioritize well, but you're a tool if you hate him.

[Magikarp]

ok after some meditation group i dont hate him

aussie. youre a champ for taking on this monumental role
but damnit youre making me madddddd sometimes

[Bazia]

Aussie is a saint
