He, obviously, did want to kill me and i couldnt use a potion, i tend to rest also when i lag and since my PC aint that good anymore i tend to lag every now and then for a short time.
I couldn't find a list of rules but is this the way ppl are allowed to act like?
I can understand when u kill someone after he killstealed or if he starts insulting and u pay back, but without any reason?

Not to discourage but it would be hard to prove given I know that location well. He could have been doing several things:
1) Fleeing for his own life
2) Traveling through on his way to other spots in the area. Mobs tend to de-aggro and run back to their original areas after bit.
The location your body is in, is a spawn area as well. I've hunted in Burning Hills on top of the hill many times. There is no such thing as a safe place to rest up there, alone.

I tryed to run aside in case he travels (he had 5 mobs at his back) and couldnt make a screenshot earlyer cuz the lags would have 100% deadly, also he said die die die... not like that sounds like he wouldnt have had that target.
Keep in Mind he came of below with those words and there is a archer from below, he was on the way back to look at his "work" and i guess the other mobs were killing the other operson who seemed to be afk (no screen).
So best proves in this case mob (archer dont spawn below had to be pulled down) was below aswell he comes of there adding what he said.

Only one thing to do in this case: Report

May i ask if there is a E-Mail to do so? Or just Posting it into the "Bug Report" (seems a little wrong to me).
And on a Sidenote: Wouldnt it be enought to enable auto non Agro when a Mob returns to his Spot? They seem to have remember where they came from, may add movement Speed to them when returning so it cannot be abused?

There is a report button in game. The little red thingy at top left of your chat window

I agree, report it. In most cases it happens usually for ppl who solo, and its somewhat understandable (given that they learn to not repeat the same mistake and mess up the ppl again). In other cases its more like revenge; ppl who wanna get you killed for wutever personal reason, which isnt good at all. Report them and let the GMs handle them.

The community here like to refer it as Death Trains. Sounds much better and is more fitting xD
Most people don't create Death Trains purposely. Ive only created them on purpose when a KSer starts nailing my enemies and wont leave after Ive asked him/her to.
Ive killed a few people by accident though with Death Trains although usually its because Im running for my life and most people like to hang around the teleporter gates.
Take note next time you see a Death Train GET THE **** OUT OF THE WAY AND RUN xD. Soon as I see an incoming Death Train ill usually go about 20 metres out of the Trains path to safety until they leave :)

Thanks for the answears.
I did report it and hope to see it "less", i think i killed 2 Persons now.
1 Time a KSer, runned up to a Mob, since i knew hed attack AFTER it startet targeting me i just aint attacked myself and looked at him while he got killed :X
Other time i runned myself to "stay alive", but usualy i kill everything in my way to prevent it.

You actually have the proof in your screenshot, I am going to watch this player, make sure he doesn't do it again.

Any tips on creating a deathtrain??? I wanna take out some bots that have been KSing boogies and mara pirates in Sea fo Greed, on Bijou server.
I tried getting a train of boogies on them, but to no avail.. maybe it just wasn't long enough?
Is there a Max # of mobs that can get stuck on a train?
And does it only work with mobs that are normally aggro? I couldn't manage to get regular pirates to attack the bot after I died.

Wow, thats really immature. You should use your empowerment points on magic missile, just a random detail I noticed.
