And ruining the game for everyone is far more important to me than whether someone else is playing the game 100% legally or not. I'd like for everyone to play legally, but there are more important things to the overall enjoyment of the Realms.
and my argument is simply that what you are classifying as "ruining the game" is not ruining the game at all. PVP is a part of the game, included by the creators of the game and intended to be used. So when people put it to use it does not "ruin" the game, it may spoil your fun, but by no means does it affect the intentions of the game.
I'm not the type to say "i disagree" and not tell you why, so thats why i brought up legit and non-legit. You say it's not the issue, I say thats exactly the issue. You want to talk about ruining the game, I say thats the only way the game is ruined. Very simple.
And the analogies you used had no bearing on the alternatives i gave you. Murder is Murder, pking is pking, i see this parallel you are drawing. However Murder is illegal and pking is not. So lets leave the real life analogies out of the game please.
Of course you wouldnt choose for your character to be killed. Regardless, my question was not "how would u like to be killed" it was who would you rather play with, a cheater, or a legit player, because in my view that is the core problem, not the people who choose to play the game differently then simple PVM, but the ppl who abuse it.
I look forward to hearing back from you Bongo because I appreciate the way you articulate your arguments and its not a "yur a noob he's a noob" debate.
Cheers
