Greetings Everyone!
Since it seems that half of sapience has no common decency, I'm going to
take this opportunity to lay down one rule that I certainly follow to
extend at least the lowest level of respect to everyone that I
encounter. I do not expect all of you to agree with it, or follow
it--but you should all be aware the consequences that I will personally
impose if you fail to treat me with at least this baseline level of
respect.
Raistlin's First Rule of Common Decency
If you enter a room with at least one mob, and you can see another
player was in that room before you, then that other player has first
claim to that mob.
If you would like to have at it, you will ask them first. Only after
permission is granted you may then start bashing.
If the other person in the room is cloaked or otherwise not visible,
then this rule does not apply and you certainly have the bashing right.
My *personal* reaction to the failure to comply with this can vary
depending on the severity from spitting on the ground in disgust at you,
to making you my personal enemy and making you pay at a later time.
Consider yourself warned.
thankfully, This 'kill-stealing' has only happened against me a few
number of times. I know it may sound that I am being petty, but I think
that this basic cordiality is not hard to follow, and if everyone did
this world would be a better place.
Thank you,
Raistlin
