Subject: Re: Diety Question and a Warning


Spelling error then, what I meant was that I was using the buff song (whatever
it is called) and they kill me for no odd reason, I did not have Chords of
Dissonance on, I can assure you of that. But the strangest thing is that they
don't immediately kill me, and only particular guards are aggressive to me (like
one guard with ONE name, maybe two). I was standing around for awhile, and I
think perhaps whatever I had attacked might have been drawn to guards and done
its little area effect damage thing, though it was off at the time. But what
puzzles me is the fact that I will return to guard area, after no combat and
healing up for up to 5 mins, and a guard will come and lop my head off for no
particular reason. I am definitely reporting it as a bug, the same thing
happened to my monk when he attacked an orc near guards. ("Guard says:"Time to
die an orc raider" Guard slashes you for 100 damage You die).
