Having one of my lovely days of antics, I got attacked in New Thalos by some nameless AP. I fled and came in with a knife about 5 seconds after his second initial attack. I get flagged, kill the AP, run like hell. I remind the Arbiter to TELL THE PERSON WHY THEY ARE FLAGGED, and then he tells me. He gives me that great little speech, turn yourself in and I will return all of your things cept weapons. Knowing the FUCKING definition of an evil-lawful char (I didn't know the align of the Arbiter, but better safe than sorry) I know that they use the law to get what they want, so he could easily have lied and not returned anything. Anyway, I ask him to give me his word in writing, send me a messenger or something. Him being an ass says he can't do that, he can't do that at his lvl or some such. I try and get a god to witness it but who knows about that. Anyway, I asked the Arbiter to swear to his word and that I would get my stuff back, or he would be stripped by the gods of his Arbiter badge. He agrees. I go to turn myself in, do so with not too much resistance (not just gonna give in) and someone loots my corpse. The arbiter doesn't bother chasing the new criminal, oh no, he just decides to sit there at Market Square (not sure but the looter might have been a ghost, but heard no guards yell). I told the Arbiter I did not receive my belongings and he must stay true to his word. He doesn't (duh) so I tell the 'gods' what happened. They don't do shit but get ticked at me for bitching (I wouldve to). All and all I felt that this was BS. I try and RP just a LITTLE FUCKING bit and cause a little chaos in Thera. Im here trying to get an Arbiter kicked out by any means necessary, and the gods could care fucking less. It ticks the shit out of me. Maybe what I did was not good 'roleplay' but atleast Im trying for christ sakes!! The worst part is not even any of that. It's the fact that the looter was the AP I killed earlier, he got flagged but then QUIT as soon as his adrenalin was gone. Nice work! My vent of the day.
