Well thats one of the main reasons I play on Zek. Some idiot steals your
kills repetedly, we just kill him or at least run him off. Or since you are
a bard I remember the old train trick. this group kept stealing my scarabs
and was quite arrogant about it. I warned them then screw it. I trained A
derv cam to them. Funniest thing I ever saw. 6 plus people on the plat.
BOOM. All but 1 died in the party and the dervs killed a few others after
the prey zoned. Needless to say, ettiquette (spelling?) was learned, and
the whole zone came polite after that incident. The non-pvp servers are
bogus and boring. Not a thing you can do about it. I learned that in Beta.
