PROFILE, PVP Stance, and Consent · on 11/21/2008 3:26:48 PM	34
In order to deal with an issue that seems to be becoming more and more prevalent now that some of our Policy Dance Children are making an effort to "game the system", the following Policy change is going into effect immediately: If your PVP Stance is set to OPEN in your Profile, this means that you welcome any and all comers for unrestricted PVP without question. Therefore, since you're openly asking for it, Spouses of PVP OPEN players will NOT gain Auto-Consent on these conflicts. The "brilliant idea" that some of these troublemakers seem to have come up with is that they'll bond their character to a much higher level character and set their own Stance to OPEN, therefore inviting PVP from all-comers. Their spouse will then be able to wade in and "take up for" them when they get attacked, in some sort of "Surprise!" scenario. Unfortunately, this doesn't make you clever, it just points out that you're only interested in manipulating the rules in order to cause problems and then try to hide behind the system. Shocking as it may seem (feigned innocence or not), this puts you in the same category as the folks who run their mouths and then REPORT and hide behind the GMs coattails. Solomon
