I didn't think this would go so public, but since i am somewhat in the middle ground of both arguments then i suppose i should say what i have observed in our fair Achea.
To begin with the people in this realm who enjoy the thrill of battling one another then fine, whatever sparks yer jumper cables, i say more power to yas cause ill admit it adds a certain spice to it all, and for some this spice is the spice of life itself in Achea and if that is thier true nature then so be it we cannot expect all to be as we are.
BUT in consideration of the arguments made by the sides of those who like and endorse player to player combat, you must realize that staying Graced is NOT an answer, in this fashion one can no longer enjoy the rich adventures of Achea in that they may not fufill many of the requirements of said adverntures (which as we all know require one to kill the mobiles for items, exper, ect.), so for this brand of Achean perhaps simply exploring and learning the land itself is the spice of life here, THUS it would most likely ( and i say likely cause they may stand in the cross roads as do i) not like having to live in constant paranoia of being killed if its not thier bag.
As for an answer i have thought long and can only come up with one MAYBE two conculsions to said problem, 1. either we can continue and perhaps make RP a bit more of a factor i nthe killing ( i will say why i say this in a second). Or #2 we can ask the mighty Sarapis in all his infinite wisdom to maybe program some form of grace that allows you to interact with mobiles but not players OR make duels (with a released set of rules of course) the way to settle battles for glory of self or guild.
A quick closing note on the subject of the Rp is that i have been killed for such incredibly lame reasons as "this is my area of mobiles to kill stay out!" Now let's be honest people in no way at all is this good Rp there are more than enough for all to kill for exp and if you dont think so you should comment to the gods on either the repop times of said mobiles or the number of said mobiles (granted i realize there is only so much Sarapis can program to suit us all)
So please think of what i have said and show support to making this a better place for all concerned by either supporting the ideas stated above OR suggesting your own but do not i repeat DO NOT continue bickering amongst ourselves who is right for maybe we are both wrong and NO extreme is the solution.
So instead i ask you to think hard and maybe YOU can be the one who thinks of a good solution to what is obviously felt by many to be a problem.
I thank you for you time and hope that what i have said has made you stop and think for that is all it is meant to do .
