Yes, I too have a problem with this.
Jsut because you can "kite" a giant doesnt give you the right to train it
through people and then say ,"Well, they should have moved"
I have had this done to me on Spectre isle, with the spectres, as I was
hunting Gargoyles.

Ok - I saw the most disgusting display by a bard I've ever seen yesterday.
Most bards I know are much more people oriented, and will die before they
endanger someone else - this one got a LOT of folks killed.

In Oasis (and yes, he's on this list - but I'm not going to name names)
kiting a sand giant up and down the BEACH for about 30 min.

Please people, if you are going to use this technique - DON'T kite thru
people - especially lower level folks.

A lot of folks died.

The ones that didn't die had their gameplay suspended because they had to
give all their attention to staying out of the way.

Of course - in that period of time, he also collected a nice assortment of
mummies, zombies - assorted other zone trash in the train - those actually
killed more folks than the SG I think.

One simple way I could think of to have avoided this problem is get sow and
levitate cast on you - and kite OVER the dunes - not in the flat areas
where folks hunt.

Is it just me, or does anyone else have a problem with a member of our own
class engaging in behavior that is so intrusive of others? It's bad when I
do something dumb and endanger myself, or my group - endangering bystanders
is just unforgiveable in my book, especially when it's unnecessary.
