Three of my friends recently went to kaesora for xalgoz teeth. When they got to the church, no one was inside the main room, and all the mobs were up (except xalgoz or his ph, but my friends had never been to the camp and were unaware he was on a different timer). They began killing things and noticed an AFK and FD'ed be romanced downstairs in the church. Asked in say if the necro was camping xalgoz and got no response.

Back upstairs, xalgoz pops and they engage, only to have the necro attack, pull agro, get the kill and berate them for KS'ing. (One of my friends looted a tooth off this corpse)

They talk, make it clear they are only their for teeth and thought he was afk and had asked in say, in range of him, and gotten no response. They work it out that xalgoz belongs to the necro and they are their for teeth only.

Next xalgoz pops, necro engages, is killing, gets the mob down to 60 ish percent and my warrior friend engages, in his mind he's helping, and has no chance at stealing the kill considering he started with the mob almost at half life. Xalgoz dies, necro got the kill/loot/exp. And a GM shows up three minutes later and insta bans my warrior friend for KS'ing. Then the next day, my friend that looted the tooth gets banned for ninja looting.


In my opinion this was a drastic over reaction. The bans were appealed and lifted after the logs were reviewed. But seems like someone is a little bit ban happy and not taking the time to actually look at logs or talk to players about the disputes in question before rendering judgement.

If she was still on the staff I'd say this was the work of Amelinda. But it isnt. Who could it be?

I've had this same kind of crap happen to me. It makes it really discouraging to play here. I was root dotting trash in the yard in Unrest, particularly the lone ghoul that spawns in the back by himself. It was really easy AFK exp on my high teenies druid.

A chanter comes along and decides they're going to make that particular ghoul their pet. Even though it's obviously being killed and was less than full health. My root breaks, but it's still dotted, so the chanter is using a dying ghoul as their pet. Eventually the charm breaks just before it dies, and I managed to nuke it to get the kill, but the worst part is what happened next:

I went about my business waiting for the respawn. The chanter stood there waiting, as well. As soon as the next one popped, they charmed that one as well. It's like wtf, this is the spawn I'm killing as soon as it repops and you think you have the right to charm it? The player refused to respond to me as to why they would not respect my camp.

I switched to another toon and killed everything as soon as it spawned. Not KSing. Just killing everything immediately.

Sirken shows up. Doesn't say a word to investigate or ask why. Just deathtouches me then disappears.

What's the moral of the story? Be the first to cry. There's no benefit here to trying to work things out with other players. There's no benefit in trying to take matters into your own hands. You just have to be the first to petition.

I'm no lawyer, but I'd guess that this is where you went wrong.
Also, that is zone disruption, which I know is part of the PNP.

Farming is less against the rules than using charm to steal EXP from another player. The difference was they cried to a GM, and the GM didn't put in any effort to rectify the situation in an amiable way.

I've been in situations where autistic tempers flared on both sides, trains were trained, mobs were stolen, shit was talked. Very rarely do the GM's suspend for that kind of stuff tbh (unless it's constant and zone disrupting... and even then it's a toss up). You must just not be very likable.

Also, Oasis is overrated as FUCK. Just don't go there. It's where the unintelligent level, like Dawn Believers. Or Clue.
