Higher levels killing guards at EC Inns

[EliteJackson]

Sorry bout that. But yo, fuck Seargent Slate.

Fuck him right in the ear.

Edit: Also, for all you know that racist-ass, power tripping white guard might have jumped a peace-loving Leezard on his way to the annual necro convention. Got what he deserved. Stay proud my brothers. Gray power!

Guys, this is server chat. Aren't there some rules? The first like 6 responses were sarcastic and most of them riddled with curse words. Didn't Deru post something about trying to keep Server Chat a bit more welcoming so new players don't get turned off thinking the community is a bunch of 14 year olds?

No theres no rule against killing guards, generally if you call for help and the person camping there isn't afk they'll help you out though (it's considered polite).

I don't believe my answer was sarcastic nor rude. It was straight to the point.

I appreciate it. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I have pretty thick skin anyways so no harm done. I wasn't about to do /ooc in the game regarding this and I didn't want to harp on the guy that was doing it so I figured I'd post a thread here and ask just what the rules were regarding it.

And honestly, the only reason why I asked about it is I ended up getting accidentally trained by someone else and I was near one of the inns at EC and when I ran to the guards, someone pulled them away from me so I couldn't get the mobs killed. Not a huge deal though. It happens.

No surprise that a simple question from a lowbie would be greeted in this fashion. The rule of thumb nowadays while remaining anonymous on gaming forums is to sound snarky and rude to others to elicit chuckles and laughs from other obnoxious people who think it's cool. Curse words add bonus cool points too, btw!

probably should mention that shit is classic

Your best bet is running to ec tunnel.

it might be farther away but there are usually 10 to 15 max level chars who will kill it then usually heal you/buff you up and send you back on your way.

I recall this being an issue with guards at entrances to cities and they eventually buffed them up to prevent this so that brand new players had guards to run to.

The ones out and about in EC and similar zones weren't buffed up with more health/resists/harder hitting so people ended up killing those guards instead

Classic. During early live a buddy and I would train the Warrior GM (Guntrik) onto unsuspecting Druids killing Oggok guards for xp/loot... it was a real hoot! When GMs got involved we just claimed that we were role-playing.

Yeah and I bet if you had a 11 year old daughter you would love letting her read this thread.
