Player Kill

I finally meet the Blessing of Mandos, which just like pvp flags is a great idea, and extremely poor implementation, due to lack of game knowledge by the coder, QC and the administration. Summary: You cant kill a guy twice in less than 5 minutes ( so far so good ), but if you attempt, when he is about to die, he gets teleported to safety. (so far so good). Afterwards, YOU ARE GUILTY for attempt and have to pay up the lawsys for it fucking with your pk. Ok, saving the guy is tolerable, teleporting him is a bit over the edge, but ok. But having to pay for the system screwing with you, now that's idiotic. Posting for Faneti Mazakura.

On for:  14m 6s                           Gender: male
Age: 6d 19h 17m 38s

Few moments later:

#2: You have been accused of attempting to murder Nightmare.
  How do you plead? [(b)ribe, (g)uilty, (n)ot guilty, or (c)ancel] : n

The commander doesn't believe you and increases your fine.
The commander says: 'You idiot!  The enemy has a hunting party after you,
and you've led them right to our base.  Now I've got to send some runners
out to lure them away.  Guess who's going to pay for that?  You are!'

You have 10 minutes to pay your fine of 2098 gold.


-----

So, you can be pvp on or pvp off, if you select to be pvp on, you can be attacked by only a handful of people active nowadays. Even then, you can have a room, or
you can alias one of the 10000 huntbreaks around Arda. And even if you somehow manage to not take advantage of any of the above, there is always a secret power to telport you and you can report to get some free gold for your 'trouble' of being an idiot... 

WELL DONE AINUR! WE ARE PROUD OF YOU. 

Your predecessors I am sure are proud too how well you have developed their legacy. GJ!
