Sure but now you're introducing a bunch of problems that never existed in the first place.

How do you determine who "owns" that corpse? There's nothing in the game to allow you to do this, and just because someone is sitting by a corpse doesn't mean that they killed the mob. There's no way to ensure that the person allowing you to loot a corpse ever had authority to do such a thing in the first place.

Investigating the whos, whats, whys, whens, and hows of corpse ownership also takes an investment of time beyond just looting the corpse. What if the person doesn't respond? What if you can't track down the owner? What if someone else just loots it while you're performing your investigation?

Now you've turned one of the most simple and agreed on parts of the game into an inquisition.

i'm not introducing problems, I'm being realistic in dealing with 'problems' the server's owners have introduced for whatever their own reasons are. My choices are adapt, go somewhere else or spend 10 years creating my own classic server complete with volunteer csr.

If you didn't kill a mob and you can't verify permission from the 'owner' just don't loot.

I will continue to loot open corpses, as it was intended by the original game designers. Not all laws are just laws.

ok?

If you think that the developers of the game intended looting of public corpses to be a bannable offense then you may have been dropped on your head a few too many times.

no i agree with you. why else would corpses even unlock to begin with? I disagree with most of the nonsense rules and the resulting lawyering blue players have established.

IMHO the rules should consist of no boxing, no training, no RMT. Thats it.

Well this thread is taking a turn for the worst.

i agree, people should settle in-game disputes via combat.

Right, and if it was intended to only be lootable by "approved peoples" then corpses would stay locked for everyone with some sort of command similar to /consent to give approval to loot corpses.

But the developers didn't do that.

Because they're meant to be public.

Because that's the more immersive, fantasy experience. World of Warcraft fixed the drama too by keeping corpses locked forever and making you ineligible to loot something unless you were present in the group or raid for the kill. Sure that's easier for customer service, but it's also more restrictive and makes the game less interesting.
