[QUOTE="Magi_Trelian, post: 2858338, member: 36591"] As an additional note to FoD (Freedom of Destiny): The way this plays best is to clear anything that might be viewed as an attack with your "victim" ahead of time using a PM. "((Is it okay if my thief tries to cut the coin pouch off your belt?))" "((Yeah, but then he'll get fried with a contingency lightning bolt))" "((Um, nevermind))" or, if you prefer surprises... "((Is it okay if my char targets your char? non-violent theft))" "((Yeah, but there are protections and my char might get violent in return))" "((Ok, I'll take the chance))" Either way, it keeps people from posting openly that: XYZ: slips past ABC with utter master ninja sneakiness and takes his coinpurse ABC: doesn't have a coinpurse XYZ: takes something then ABC: has wards on all his goods XYZ: defeats all the wards first ABC: drinks his ale with all his goods still on him etc. This looks pretty silly. But remember you are always perfectly free to treat an unannounced and unapproved attack as an illusion, or as something your char automatically avoids, or as something that just didn't happen in the first place. As a final plea, PMs also avoid the "but I'm TRYING to get this to the clearing, it's the other player's fault because he won't MOVE" explanations to Magi about fighting in the non-combat rooms when the other person is telling us, "He's harassing me because I don't WANT to fight him and now he's getting ME in trouble."
