Where did people start calling AE kiting Swarm Kiting? Like what thread started this, so I can go yell at said person.
I don't know, do I need to get technical? I've never played a bard in 15 years of EQ, and never plan to. He was kiting. It was a swarm of mobs. I don't know the mechanics at all, other than he was pulling everything from everyone in the zone and killing it all. And seemed like for giggles. Looked very much like he was tracking players to do it as well. Can't tell you much beyond that I'm afraid. I know his tracking is better than druid and worse than ranger, if that helps.

You're continuously refusing to address the fact that you made no effort to personally contact this player and work something out. Deru even pointed it out in plain English, and you chose to leave it out of his quote. It is very difficult to put much faith in your claims when you repeatedly ignore the most basic of steps.

Who said I didn't contact him? So did someone else. When I said "no talk" I was speaking about the bard. This guy was ignoring everyone in the zone, running over them and swiping every mob around them.

As for the quote, I cut nothing out. You go right now to his post, hit quote, and see what gets automatically cut out. Do it.

I've many times resolved in-game differences, and am especially careful with my conduct in the game where it comes to other players and their camps or hunting space. So you guys knock it off with personal attacks and/or accusations, that stuff should stay in RnF where it belongs... or doesn't.

So how exactly did you go about resolving it? Why shouldn't we punish you and not the bard?

Woops, that is my mistake. You did quote him properly. However, you still failed to acknowledge the fact that a GM told you to work it out with the Bard player first. If you tried that, why didn't you say so when you replied? You're not making a very good case for yourself.

I think most people can empathize with you as far as having a Bard take many of the spawns, but you haven't stated that you actually spoke with him and attempted to resolve the matter via direct communication. Even when replying to me you haven't said it. Trust me, I feel your pain, but you need to communicate all of the details if you want to publicly request comments on an issue like this.

Well, how have I responded in this thread to you? You open up with personal attacks, and I defy you with reasoning, not returning your frivolous attacks with frivolous attacks melting the thread to RnF. Pretty much same thing in any thread we lock horns. I provide a reasonable argument to someone, a friendly debate, not even having a conversation with you, you jump in and start flaming as that's all you have. So, your questions, I only see treachery lurking behind them. Go away troll.

Anyway, Derubael answered the question, works for me. Now I'm better informed. I only provide the character name to be aware, as if he were doing something that conflicts with server rules, it's likely he'll do it again, and this can be resolved by his next victims. No concern to me beyond that.
