Or.... farm gems from groups.

Rogues aren't meant to be liked. I've never once condemned a rogue from pickpocketing a mob while we raid. Rogues get shafted second only to Warriors in EQ. These guys deserve SOMETHING. Let em have the gems.

Also just for reference. We have rogues in our guild right now who pickpocket during our raids. Sometimes they spread the wealth of the gems. Sometimes they don't. It really doesn't matter. IMO the act of the Rogue spreading the pickpocket wealth should be admired instead of expected. I know if I were a rogue I would keep at least 75% of my pick pocketed loot, even in raids.

It's funny that on a ROLEPLAYING game someone would get mad that in a ROLEPLAYING universe a ROGUE is known to pickpocket people,mobs,not care, be sneaky, be an asshole, etc.

He picketed the mob infront of your wife and she didn't see it? lulz.

Also lulzy @ "I texted my wife and asked her" you married quite the keeper there, broseph.

Since roleplaying is so important, don't you mean:

To wit: in the making of merriment in whereforth one doth act as though upon a stage, how another doth indignation take, in this world's stage, whence a criminal doth relieve others of their earthly possessions with glee and the scant flicker of a thought.

Roleplay a wizard for a more intelligent argument.

Only time I have a problem with pick pocket is when we are in a group. If you are picking the mob dry, folks that depend on split to make money are getting screwed. If I am in a group for five hours and only make two plat, all in copper, there is something wrong.

Pick-pocketing should follow the same rule as mob tagging: if someone else attacked it first, it's theirs and you leave it alone unless they ask for help. If I were in a position to enforce rules, I would consider PPing from another guy's mob the same as KSing, and it doesn't matter one bit how much rogues struggle to farm. At least they have a way of doing it, just go for the mobs that aren't currently being killed by somebody else. Warriors can't farm either, but you wouldn't accept them actively trying to steal your kill just because the class can't farm on their own. As was always the case, playing certain classes means resigning yourself to the fact that your income will either come from grouping and winning the rolls, or from farming with another character. Using the weakness of your class as an excuse is idiotic, and PPing seafuries or sand giants while others are in the process of killing them is precisely the same as KSing.

Why do you keep talking to me as if you know me?

Ryuut, you're a non factor.

^ are you amped I mentioned your name?

edit: the funniest part about this thread is that the only QQing is coming from the crybaby thieves trying to justify why it's okay for them to gank your shit. By that rationale, Warriors, Monks, SKs, and Rangers technically should be allowed to attempt to KS every mob you pull considering they have no means to make any PP, no? They can't solo right? So they deserve to use their "skill sets" to take your shit.

Also, how bout this idea - stop being an asshole and taking shit from other players, use your heads. These same folks justifying PPing engaged mobs are also the people QQing on R&F about people KSing, training, taking raids mobs etc. No, you're right though - you should be allowed to steal from our mobs, and I can only assume that when I steamroll your camp spot and KS your shit, we'll see eye to eye. (i forgot 90% of you refuse to associate your in game names with your forum troll accounts)

maybe you should kill your mobs quicker.

Threads like this taint my impression of the server. I can't believe how many people rationalize their bad behavior. Just because you *can* do something doesn't mean it's fair game. Other classes have the raw power to KS. Should they be allowed to do so. Hell, any class can train your ass out of a zone. It's easier to argue that is a competitive technique than that pp'ing a mob someone else has already engaged is fair practice.
