Did the destructor even fire when the process was killed? I seem to remember hearing rumors about plat duping this way... but they were only rumors.

I used to drop a copper in the middle of the arena in WFP on my rogue then hide. Newbie would come by and try to grab it but I'd kill them before they could get to it. The best was when they were bound in Erudin or Gfay and the torrent of whining that would ensue afterward.
