I am glad to see this discussion happen over raves. If people weren't enemied, the distort wouldn't have trapped them, FYI.
Also that Harmony domoth. Even if we lost and I hate losing rargh. Plus side, only lost a million.
Well, if you want to go there... I got enemied during a domoth where someone who shall remain unnamed summoned invasion troops, ran off and decided to unenemy everyone. Following that, I had some six+ invasion critters chasing me down and killing those gets one enemied too and never got unenemied after, so eh... whatever.

Except the part where he killed Eodh in Faethorn. Cause killing low/midbies is cool mkay
An enemy's AFK herbing on Astral and drops 512 sparleberries? I mail them back, even after the same person stole my corpses in the past. Mags raiding Serenwilde after a Faethorn scuffle when I know there aren't the people to back Seren up?
Not enemied person takes a wrong turn, ends up in distort with a bunch of Gloms beating their face in, drops manifestations... "Thanks for the donation"? Yeah, sorry, I don't believe you. :P
When it's a person who is well-known for running up and stealing corpses of people hunting Astral... yeah. I'm not sure why you'd expect differently there. While obviously not strictly obeyed, the Golden Rule does subtly cover much of Lusternia's interactions; another person might have had a completely different outcome.
As an example, I don't jump people, so I usually don't get jumped. I don't lift people's corpses (except one time during a Domoth when I nicked Kelly's, but returned them to her after we had a short chat), and I'm usually left alone in that regard as well.
Sure, there are people who just kind of do whatever they want, whenever they want, to whomever they want; but on the whole, Lusternia's playerbase is a bit better than that I like to think. A lot of the feuds these days are (at least from my observation) more personal (the Morkarion <-> Xena or Kio <-> Kelly ones, for example).
Edit: And that's my rave; that Lusternia's playerbase is not a gung-ho "rargh, everyone over on the other side is terribad and must suffer the entire time they are logged into the game". I know we've had some times in the past where it felt that way, and I far prefer this.
I feel like this comparison with Morkarion and I is more one sided. I don't have a feud with him =o So where are you getting your information?

You know what, no. I'm not going to sit here and explain the gritty details because, as Morkarion points out to me all the time, I'm too easily trolled. I guess that's what I get for being a naive little dude.
Apologies and explanations were had OOCly between me and the novice. In fact, I even had a little OOC chat with Rivius about the situation to get a little advice on how to handle this sort of RP situation afterward, seeing as how all this stuff is still pretty new to me (~85% of Kio's age is dormancy). So, before you go slandering my name and labelling me the realm's newest, griefiest newbie-slayer, how about you grow up a little bit. After all, there's lots of griefing happening everywhere (corpse thievery and off-peak hit-and-runs come to mind). I do my damnedest to go out of my way to make sure I'm not involved with it. An enemy's AFK herbing on Astral and drops 512 sparleberries? I mail them back, even after the same person stole my corpses in the past. Mags raiding Serenwilde after a Faethorn scuffle when I know there aren't the people to back Seren up? I make sure our side stays out of it.
tl;dr
Accidents happen. Criminalize me all you want, because you're going to find a way to anyway.

I feel like when you knowingly go out of your way with Haiden and them to bother him, you definitely have a 'fued.' Maybe that's just me though
No but if you move to South Korea, they love dogs so much that you could be in a food!
Ok bad puns aside, raves for @Svorai because despite all her insistence that she does bugger all, I couldn't get half the stuff I want to do, done, without her support and fast responses.

The Harbs have a bundle of awesome novices/midbies lately and they all deserve raves.
You're welcome.
Everiine said: The reason population is low isn't because there are too many orgs. It's because so many facets of the game are outright broken and protected by those who benefit from it being that way. An overabundance of gimmicks (including game-breaking ones), artifacts that destroy any concept of balance, blatant pay-to-win features, and an obsession with convenience that makes few things actually worthwhile all contribute to the game's sad decline.

Tears of joy.

OGODOGODOGOD. Where is Celinaface?!
Viravain, Lady of the Thorns shouts, "And You would seize Me? Fool! I am the Glomdoring! I am the Wyrd, and beneath the cloak of Night, the shadows of the Silent stir!"
The more I interact with Glomdoring the more I regret getting myself enemied as a novice for accidentally bashing Paavik thinking it was the same as the moors :P

This is how I got my first PK death, I confused the Grey Moors for Shanthmark.

If that's all you did, it will be pretty easy to get unenemied.
I'd be happy to do it, just send me a message in character and I'll even seek you out (Though thanks if you already have I can't check for another hour)
