Default Classic Faction Mechanics, Yes/No

On classic npcs would defend players if attacked by someone with lower faction, as follows:

Player A with ally to the monk guildmaster could attack player B (with amiable faction) without any npc involvement, however if player B attacked player A who had superior faction they would agro player B.

I don't think this is coded atm on p99, but should be in. Those of you who remember know there was a reason to be turning in all those bandages, red wines, and 2 golds for faction.

I used to love watching NASTY THIEVES... I mean Erudites make the trip over to Qeynos fresh off the boat. I would attack them, and the guards would lol since they were dubious.

That is... until the filthy Erudite hit me back, then the guards would murder them. I saved so many screenshots of dead filthy Erudites that died with my old hard drive.

on live during classic, you took faction hits from pvp.

so when my erudite slew a dwarf, my faction with ALL dwarfs would drop. this was eventually removed, however my faction was so screwed that i could only bank in erudin and Halas (if i hugged the wall) during that time.
