[QUOTE="Aust Diamondew, post: 2578023, member: 5156"] If you have mature players who can keep out of game seperate from in game and who are all friends PvP is fine as long as it makes sense. That isn't to say I encourgae players to make characters who conflict to such a degree as to take violent action against one another. For example once there was a PvP battle because one PC want to take the proper course of action and one wanted to the just course of action (truth and justice after all aren't 100% of the time the same thing) and they came to blows over it. Another time me and another players character were so dishonored in our defeat at a large battle (leading 90% of my characters tribe to death) and were so frustrated with one another we engaged in combat to the death, my character planned to dedicate the death to Kord and commit suicide after the battle but he was killed after the battle first (one of his own men back stabbed him). And there are several other occasions where PvP didn't end badly. Oh and ofc theres general practice fighting between PCs in game where they simply do non-lethal damage. There have been a couple of bad experiences with PvP when a player couldn't keep out of game seperate from in game, never mattered cause the offending player died in every case and not his intended target. I remember one time a player got pissed at another (for out of game reasons, which were also BS reasons IMO) and tried to kill a minotaur PC in a toe to toe fight and he was a bard, give me a break.
