How many times have you seeen people whine about being killed while fighting mobs, medding at low HP, AFKing, or being unbuffed? Some players have claimed that it should be illegal to attack players who are engaged on mobs. To the old-hand pvpers, that's obviously incorrect.

One must draw the line somewhere, and it is not obvious or clear-cut where that line should be. There is no final ruleset that will please all parties. It will end up being some kind of arbitrary compromise, and I guarantee some players will complain. There will always be opportunities for crying about losing. Don't you think so too?
You can't steal someone's Ancient Cyclops or whatever if they're out of pvp range. If you can't pvp each other then blue rules apply. Same with training, you can't just flop mobs on other players. It's not a lawless server.

If you afk and don't camp to character select, you're asking for it. Holodock safety protocols are off ^^

Come on down guys, these are the kinds of groups you'll find (more new starters, far less twinks... the roots of EQ):
