If trading is allowed than any trading with a PKer should lead to their partner getting some corruption. The PKer won't care about the goods, they'll only care about their own stuff getting damaged on death. The PKer would just trade away their stuff, have their partner kill them on the spot and loot the stolen goods.We have not received permission from Arya_Yeshe to share the quoted post.
Also, no point in allowing PKers storage if you want to have a timegate on the stolen goods. BHs wouldn't know where the goods are or who even had them, because the PKer would just put them in the storage, cleanse their corruption and "blend with the crowd", while they wait the timer out. Having an online timer on the goods would make more sense because it'd put pressure on the thief to either constantly move the goods or at least waste their time sitting in some hole where they can't be found (though this would probably be done by hiding in their freehold as a green and living their PC on throughout the night).
This will be abused by having a PKing alt who'll rack up some kills, die to a BH several times and give that BH a ton of free searches.We have not received permission from Arya_Yeshe to share the quoted post.
If there's that abuse I described, the BH would just spam their searches on every person and freehold/storage in the area.We have not received permission from Arya_Yeshe to share the quoted post.
This could be potentially abused to circumvent the dangers of long distance transporting of goods. The PKer kills a dude several times and gets all their goods and logs off. The dude goes to their destination. The PKer logs back on, a BH friend kills them and the items get automatically sent.We have not received permission from Arya_Yeshe to share the quoted post.
And if you meant that items would just get automatically deposited in the nearest public storage and the owner gets notified, then this part of my response can be disregarded.
Would those crafted goods still have the "stolen" ID? Cause if not - this whole suggestion would probably be pointless. And if they do - how do you plan to address the price difference between a processed good against the raw material. And how would those goods be returned to the owner in case the thief is caught?We have not received permission from Arya_Yeshe to share the quoted post.
