  I really think this thread has no purpose anymore.  When I posted, I believed that my death was a obviously completely unnecesary kill/ghostpk.  It turns out this is not so in the eyes of many; I didn't start this to be an argument with those who disagree with me; I should have put it in the Deaths forum.  
I think the Ignore idea is great! Many, many multiuser games have some form of it.  As for the only reason my not killing bigjuan or varguar early being fear of Domino.. well... no.  I had plenty of chances, starting with the time just after the reset when bigjuan attacked and lost.  I said then that I wouldn't attack either of them if they wouldn't attack me.  Bigjuan has held to that; I respect for it.  
"He has also played a few games with other people IE: Changing his computer name, creating a new character and running around pkilling newbies."
A kernal of truth, I am sorry to say, though quite badly distorted.  I once decided to see how long a level 1 char could survive with 10x people going after him.  It was a stupid idea; but I wanted to test my skill.  I don't believe I killed anyone; if I did I re-imbursed him above and beyond.  Was it a stupid idea? Yes.  I never did anything anywhere similar time before or after.

I realy think this thread had no purpose to begin with except as a forum for Maegdae to whine.   You've heard our (Bigjuan, Martos and I) stance on pkilling a long time ago and many times since.  Are you surprised that other people share our view?  Pkilling is allowed in virtually every multiplayer game that I've played in some form or another.  In the few that don't allow it (as well as in most that do) there is some way of silencing those you don't wish to hear/interact with.  Be it an external client suppression or an internal option.
