Xx_BloodStalk_xX 2123 Share Posted June 14, 2023 "As a former NL.." ^ This doesn't matter. Not downplaying the opinion of those who were in the position before, but a PK clause should never be enforced on NLs. The fact of the matter is, I'm sure being the figurehead of any large community can be fun, but it can also be stressful. The NL player is going to have the worry of "if I die here im going to PK" mentality, therefore there will be less large events in the nation, or at least the player will be less active on that character. Some other lame situations like that will happen, I'm sure. That being said, you shouldn't be an NL if you don't roleplay faithfully. I can understand that PKing your monarch can lead to some heavy times in the community, but what I'm trying to say is that this isn't a mechanical issue at all--it's a communtiy one. We should encourage good faith in our community to PK when the time is right for the better overall narrative. And if they don't? Ultimately, it's their choice. This is just a hobby. I know that this is really just to stop things like meticulous planning going into assassinations and for what? The NL to say ' * revives ' after getting 60 guards to log onto the ppl killing them? We should be shaming this behavior rather than trying to force a mechanical compromise that can force the NL to be even more like a job than it already is. Each of us, in our respective communities, should be praising those who do good roleplay to roleplay faithfully, and vise versa. The cons are more heavy than the pros here, I think. 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gracefully taking an L with style and epic prose is much cooler than staff-enforced L-taking. This is the real solution. No rule can ever be made that would work for this. But, if you end up dying from quality RP that makes a damned good story, you should PK. That goes for all players, honestly. And, all players doing that (in a perfect world), we should expect NLs to do so as well. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam5232 340 Share Posted June 15, 2023 It should follow similar rules to a raid or heist where you must modreq before attacking or killing them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
argonian 12838 Share Posted June 15, 2023 IMO "only during wars" is the worst option. you'd let them dodge actual assassinations but force them to pk to getting caught afk in a raid? either general pk clauses or none imo. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
