Perhaps gods could implement something that metas can't go into meta mode when they have novoid or pk noquit? Imagine if that had been in closed area, and I got him awful, he metad and back to full, then I died. I should have had balls though and blocked the door after I entered, then fled out turnback if things went bad.

First, he hit you once and didnt chase.
Second, you stabbed him so he has every right to defend himself.
Third, changing between meta does not refill your hps.
Ginlon2000-09-12 03:29:58
I think Metas should be allowed to pk...
Galdor2000-09-12 04:38:17
He has the right to defend himself, but not pursue
OscarMeyer2000-09-12 04:48:44
Erm, last I checked, when you change between meta (maybe is only 1-way) you DO get full hps. You can't tell from log, since I edited out tracking, but there is no way he had time to cast heal, and he spammed through my room several times as I tracked. I tried to make a point of not accusing him of cheating, I just wanted a clarification of the rules. I'm sure Rogon will post it soon, as part of a massive flame of me :)

Turning to meta doesn't fill your hp. Also, I agree with ginlon,
istari's were in the book to protect the people of arda (destroy
evil).

backstabbing someone who's sleeping then fleeing and trying
to backstab again is obvious attempt of trying to linkless/
afk(kill). *sniff* Don't do it man, it's lame.
Dardhel2000-09-12 08:03:01
I will say aswell that changing to and from meta doesn't affect hps, actually I think if you are at 10% hps when not meta and you meta, you have 10% of your total hps after you meta. I used this alot while I was leveling up my meta because my half-elf form had like 140 hps total and 1 heal would heal 350 or so "meta hps" after switching forms and back.

Linkless kill is lame, but not afk kill. Drop a link if you need to go afk. I have been killed afk in Cave (stabbed twice, after olog-pack killed olog mobs) and in Sage room. I blame myself only :)
Ghostly2000-09-12 09:37:06
Hard to tell from logs, but I think this was a different meta. Confusing huh?
FĂ«agil2000-09-12 09:59:45
Was the same meta and oscar you're a FUCKING NEWBIE, i had time to cast 5 times cure serious so SHUT THE FUCK UP. I don't have heal, so i spammed to other side of town and insta started curing, then re-metad to spam bree. The reason why i attacked you was simple: i had just been attacked there by 2 bns and i thought you were one of them, in which case it was obvious that they prolly attack me again. i noticed you're a sneaker, then i knew you weren't the same one and appologized.

I'd really like some guidance by the ainur here: can i fight back, and kill someone who attacks me first? It really sucks to be forced to run bree every time i see a darkie with track :(

P.S. To say this again: you were SLOW, and i would have been on awful as meta too, not to mention i had to bob to get back to meta form :)

aschit, dont whine so much, the more pk, the more fun, meta or not...

Axel2000-09-12 10:13:29
was fighting that meta earlier in tbad and actually Feagil was the first meta
I met who didnt insta hit, but yelled - 'I am not allowed to fight so dont
hit me', so he behaved perfectly ok
Duvel2000-09-12 10:17:35
He behaved good, he died to MrJoe as meta too he did not fight at abr.

Stop whining =)
Curious2000-09-12 10:47:24
any chance 'help whine' comes back? :P
*pat Aschit*
Dresden2000-09-12 13:32:55
Mmmmmmeta.... please please do attack me, I will not complain!
Rogon2000-09-12 18:45:49
Not the first time i see aschit yell something, then stab the guy who's yelling an apology or reply back at him. A battle tactic?
Oscarmeyer2000-09-12 23:52:30
Hehe, if someone is silly enough to stop and yell when not totally safe, they deserve to eat a stab. Yes, it is a battle tactic I proudly use. Feagil must have damn fast cures :( I honestly don't see how he had the time to spam 2, let alone 5 cures while I tracked him the 8 or so rooms that he had run. As I stated, I didn't accuse him of cheating, was just asking if it was legal. I didn't question the pk aspect of the fight, just the (I thought) use of meta to regain lost hps. I even stated in log that it wasn't a big deal that he hit me, since he yelled he wouldn't attack me. Also, if I had thought even for a MOMENT that Andel was linkless, I wouldn't have stabbed him the first time. But not many people sleep on tbad streets, so it was highly doubtful that he was linkless. Also, there had been 2 quakes in zone not even 10 seconds before that part of the log starts, I edited them out to save space. Kinda unlike Mayavi, who was afk at n gate the other day, saw 2 stab tries, so I asked if he was linkless, no response, so I left, and 2 seconds later he is tracking me. It's really sad when people fake linkless/afk to avoid pk, and after Mayavi kept quitting the other day to avoid pk also, I'm not sure that I would restrain myself from killing that particular puke linkless, though I probably wouldn't do it anyway :(

*apol* for yet another longwinded post
Gray2000-09-13 16:11:40
Cure serious takes approx same time as tracking one room (with istari wand that
is). Well, they really changed metas trophy - i.e. it is not zeroising anymore
when player returns/meta again? Too bad, then they need to change rules about
"white" cities - cos usually there are no exp in these areas on hero level -
all mobs killed to 30%+ :)
