We've all seen it, an hate it.
I now bring to you a method that will induce dispersistence of KSers.
All one has to do is ask, "Are you a bot, -----?"
When/if they reply, simply tell them that you were about to report them because they KSed you.
Any imput?

Lol.
Yeah, I like the idea. That way if they don't reply, you can report them anyway.

What good is that gonna do? I report each time i am online as many people as my report button allows - but never actually saw a player get removed.
As much as it hurts me to admit it - i have to say that we need engine side possibilities to stop KSing...
I am still in favor of this system:
KSing is taking the or one of the last hits on an enemy so KSer EXP is < Attacker Exp.
If the server finds this situation it should increase a counter on the player by 1 - if the counter reaches 5 the player is kicked or killed or simply messaged to stop it or whatever. These KS Stigmata should vanish by 1 in like one hour... that way accidental KSing is no problem..
Ideas?

lol, personal vengeance is always always more satisfying than sending a report that may or may not be acted upon.
oh, did I mention you get immediate results? ;)

that is fun. i like when a weak player use you to take a hit so they get exp. this what i do for weaker player. let them think you hit it. soon he start attack. run away. stop. see noob drop to ground. go over and say that for ksing noob! lol:D

the reports don't go to some one right away... (most the time)
i know of a group that was removed.
i was in CP helping some noobs levl and a group keep trying to pull trees on us... (noobs died a couple times but no XP loss at that levl anyway.)
*us and another group that was also trying to levl there reported them*
then some one in friend list invited me to help with GGK and about 3HRs in the same group showed up and trained us and another group there...
*us and that group reported them there as well*
i haven't seen any of the players in the game since...
**sad thing is i dont think they knew any english and may not have understood what they were doing.** :(
so that took about 4HRs before any thing was done about thoughs people.... so dont expect them to just disapper right away...

Man do we all hate KS'er and yes I've pulled a few train pass them and did the fake attack thing and to my great happiness and a fellow witness they died. Did that stop them though? Most likely only for the time it took them to get back from town. I see that the game now (or I just now noticed lol) has some LVL blocks for some gates. Like the grave yard of the dead +30 only in moonlite and hideout 20-29 only in BH. I think all gates should have a LVL block of some sort. However a high lvl should be allowed in any of the lower gates to help their friends plus they worked thier way though there so they deserve it. Now maybe something can be made so your lower lvl friend can get in with you in a party because you know at that time he/she is getting help and most likely not going to KS but if he/she is dropped from the party the they are automaticly ported to a town or other place of their lvl. Won't stop KS'er of the same LVL but it will of those low lvl noobs.........
