Killing someone OOC

Postby RyceLandeer » Sat Jun 05, 2004 9:15 pm

If someone asks you OOC to kill them because they want to start a new character or whatever do I have to have a reason IC to kill them without being accused of a crime.

This is what happened read from the bottem, your comments?

841-7: Rafaela Cervantes hurts you using a sabre. You lose 43 percent strength.

841-3: Rafaela Cervantes says: "How do you know he wants to doe? He never said that! [[it`s too bad characters can`t hear ooc comments, huh?]]"

841-2: You say: "(OOC read back he wants us to kill him off) *Shrugs, he wants to die, might as well grant his wish, otherwise he will just steal some stuff and run off, expecting us to chase after him and kill him. Its a big hassle I wish to avoid."

841-1: Rafaela Cervantes says: "Excuse me, why did you strike that man?"

840-7: You hurt Muraki Zenda using a hunting bow, who loses 20 percent strength.

840-7: Muraki Zenda says: "OOC| Yes sir..Or ma`am.. O_O"

840-7: You say: "(OOC you mean your character?)"

840-7: Muraki Zenda says: "OOC| Can some one kill this person off for me?"

Someone is very efficiently teaching you a lesson. ;)

OOC comments should be minimized in the game, especially should it be avoided to let OOC comments interfere with IC issues. That's the reason why they are called OOC comments...

Requests by players to have their characters killed off for no reason should generally be ignored.

Well because they can contact the PD instead of ruining your Cantr roleplay experience.

Lock them up, and let them rot in a cell. If they become too much of a nuisance, inform the PD.
Players who want to get their characters killed for OOC reasons break the Capital Rule, simple as that.
Send a brief report, and you're gonna get rid of the problem. ;)

The person behind Rafaela Cervantes should have credit for good RPing. Rafaela saw a man (or woman?) attack someone without a reason, and thus responded with an attack.

Good RP and an excellent way to learn someone a lesson :)

:evil:

You evil, evil man.

Bah, but haven't we all done that =))

Especially poking them with a tool like a chisel-

then healing them back up with some food-

then poking them with a knife-

then healing them back up with some food-

then poking them with a dung fork-

Repeat as necessary. =))

Then you have an IC reason to kill them, or whatever.

I agree =))

I noticed Chris's sig a while ago with the crowbar to knees point- and it really could be a useful tool. :evil:

Would save the load amount too =))

By reading the title of the thread I began to think people were planning to kill players instead chars

The PD has debated whether capital punishment would be an appropriate penalty for some players. ;)
