What do you mean, you called for it ages ago? Tegne and Haak had nothing to do with eachother. The only times they did interact was when he stole from me or I tripped him, wielding axes (Infact, Dyson has killed Tegne, Haak has killed Dyson and Tegne has stolen copious amounts from Haak and Dyson--never once have they grouped). The reason we were denied is because we were both independently attacking everyone in sight with the exception of eachother -- for one PK session. No biggie, I don't get too involved with my characters anymore, ever since a few of my notable attempts at roleplaying were blown off as the norm. The only thing I don't understand is why people complain about being PK'ed for no apparent reason. The fact that you wear clothing is enough. Consider an orcish ambush in the first volume of the Dragonlance Saga, they probably attacked for a few measly gold pieces. I'm pretty sure Flint and Tanis had never seen these orcs before and vice versa, and I'm pretty sure they didn't stand over the orcs lifeless bodies asking eachother "Well blow me down, I've never seen them before, why on earth would they want to harm us?". I can handle anything anyone else dishes out, including the immortals, to whom I hold no grudge whatsoever, my only question is to the people who cannot handle random violence on a PK Mud, perhaps you are in the wrong environment, and would be better suited to a pure roleplaying MUD/MUSH/Chat room etc. In the mean time, I'll just have to wait for the ban on smug to be lifted before I can hit the fields again. So once again, just let it go, I am happy to. P.S. I don't know what the fuss was about over Haak anyhow, he completely sucked in a PK sense and died multiple times.
