Your thoughts: what's the right attitude for PvP?

[phro]

I am KOS to no one until you attack me. Everyone gets the benefit of the doubt.

If you are in my /who and I don't know you I am on full alert. I sit in obscure places and leave no corpses and make sure all available buffs are up. I slow my pace of hunting NPCs and keep some mana reserved at least fight, run, or gate.

If I've fought you before I am on super high alert until you pass through or one of us finds each other. If you're a twink or just an asshole I'll avoid you as best as I can.

If you kill/attack me and predominantly talk shit in any way you are now permanently KOS. I will drop everything in this game to kill you until you LNS if I can. Forever. You are now the example to be made not to fuck with me.

If you attack/kill me and offer constructive criticism or thank me for the fight you're probably cool and I'm still going on high alert around you, but you can still be my friend possibly.

If you don't ever attack me you're cool and I will never hunt you we can maybe be friends.

If you choose to side with any of the above over siding with me you get the status of the person you're helping.

I'm in my 40s and I have a couple dozen people who hit me up for tells to group regularly and I have a half dozen people that I will chase mercilessly. No twinks have been in my level range for any significant play time to make any threat level and only have 1 guy who is cool but is also my nemesis.
