Wait wait, running around East Commonlands cannot be compared to waking the Sleeper. East Commonlands has nothing of import. Even if you hacked and killed every single NPC in the zone with a single key press it wouldn't affect anything in the game. Or as a more feasible example, a bard kiting every single mob in the zone wouldn't affect anything except a few low levels that might need to move a zone over because that damned bard is hogging all the mobs.
Waking the Sleeper irreversibly alters the game and forever locks out some content.
You cannot compare them.
Again, the rules have nothing to do with intent.
You know, for a while on Rallos Zek the Drowned Citizens would not aggro the guards. The guards happily ignored them. I used to use my bard to pull them into the newbie area and let them go by zoning. Those drowned citizens would wind up running around killing all the newbies that were there passing time because their main server was down (Rallos Zek newbie zones were very populated when another server was down). I wasn't training anyone, just bringing the drowned citizens to the surface and zoning, and when they walked back along the wall to their spawn hopefully they would aggro a newbie running around. If they didn't I'd go back and try again.
It was (to me) hilarious to zone back in and watch as they ran amok killing newbies indiscriminately, and watch as some would run to the guards for protection but the citizens would run right past them through the gates. Sometimes they'd be all over the place in WFP lol. You'd like run to the caster trainers and a drowned citizen was there in the street.
It was considered within the rules. I was petitioned for it, I know. No consequences other than a name change because I didn't actually train anyone but my name was a popular singer. You know because from my point of view I aggroed too many citizens and had to zone to save my life, is it my fault the guards don't kill them? Oops. Sorry bout the name thing though lol [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
They wound up patching the drowned citizens so the guards. It was no longer fun to bring them out into the yard and the city in general.
So it was malicious intent on my end but totally within the rules. And I wanted to share the story of how I got the drowned citizens patched to be killed by the guards lol. |
Importance of content is irrelevant. Nobody is forcing you to get Warder loot, and plenty of players are happy without it. You are falsely assuming that importance of content matters.
Hacking the game is a problem, as it goes against the rules, and you will be punished for it. It's not the same thing as killing the Sleeper, which you can do without hacking the game or breaking the rules.
The game mechanics and server rules allow you to wake the Sleeper whenever you want. If you disagree with that, ask the P99 devs to change it or opt out of playing the game nobody is forcing you to play. People have been asking Warders to stay up for years, so I wouldn't hold my breath that the P99 devs want to change it.
