Gm's on progressive servers still not helpingFollow

Gm’s still not helping
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. You may not steal kills.

Kill Stealing is defined as the killing of an NPC for any reason that is already fighting or pursuing another player or group that is prepared to engage that same NPC without that group's specific permission.

The intent of this rule is discourage and make note of habitual Kill Stealers, not to punish those who honestly try to work together or those who make an honest mistake. Its enforcement by the EverQuest Customer Service Staff will reflect this philosophy.

This is quoted from Everquest rules

Now my question is when you are ksed. How much information do you need to provide for the Gm to do anything?

My friend is a level33 warrior. Was at a camp he could solo, green mob and a level46 necro named necrolyte comes in for the same mob. Now while Everquest doesn’t support camps, players do, so my friend informed him it was camped. He even asked necrolyte if he would
Like to join his group, as he is cool with lotto. When necrolyte said no he then asked if he just
Planned to ks him. Necrolyte said he planned to take the mob.

Now my friend waited for the mob to spawn and damaged him first and was fully capable of defeating the mob but not able to out damage a 46necro. So necrolyte was able and did ks.
My friend did take logs of what happened and petitioned in game. Gm says he didn’t see it so not helping.

Part of the reason I made a character on the progression server was because I was told there would be a Gm present there and that they would be doing more about stuff like ksing.
So I am asking how much is needed to prove someone is ksing so that a gm will do something?

posted at everquest as well but expect it to get locked.

I had this happen a long time ago. I was in a unrest group camping the ghost. At the time the boots was still worth something, heck so was the ring. Anyways we camped the ghost room for about 2 hours killing mobs around it for exp. All of a sudden a lvl 50ish druid pops inside the room with wolf form on.

Told the guy we was camping the room and he said we can't keep camps we have to play nice. Sure enough the ghost spawned and we was damaged first and we hurt it first. Of course we stood no chance against the dps of this wizard and he won and sent me tells taunting me that he just looted the boots (before linking so not for sure he did). After telling him off real good he told me I was /reported and petitioned for harassing me and then in another tell I am informed a random newbie loves the boots.

I asked him what he had against us and apparently a person who wasn't even in our group trained his friends charactor so he hated us. I also petitioned and reported him and I never even heard from a GM.

Moral of the story, there is always a-holes out there.

um, since when have the GMs ever done anything helpful since VI took the ability to do a zone/world kick away from them?

Let him die as you should lol...

GMs did help me once. This was also two years ago so do not apply this standard. this was back when you could /gm and find some names on-line.

Was hunting Crags in EK with 24 druid. Seemed like everytime I found a Crag, snared and dotted it these level 55s would swoop in and kill it in nothing flat, Oops sorry didn't see you they say, sure how did they know I had engaged or so they say...after the third time telling them to stop Ksing me, I contacted GM. There were 2 level 55s in zone, don't know if they were working in tandem or not. GM showed up, talked to us and told them to leave and find more suitable xp zone. I got a ration from them in tells so I /reported them.

cept gms can still do a zone kick, and can still lock you at your keyboard, so you can't type or move except to reply to their tells.

One expects better of a Ranger. You sure you ain't a Druid?

How does that work more specifically, does it not allow the person who engages the mob after someone else do any damage or does it just not allow them to loot?

Saeel, in Wow, if you hit the mob first, you are the one who gets to loot it (unless you are in a group, then group loot rules apply.) It doesn't matter who hits it second or how much damage they do.

Also, if everyone in your group is on the same quest and you need a particular item from a mob, most of the time, you will all be able to loot that item after one kill. Now this is not true if you are on a collection quest, just if you need one item. That and the fact that most mobs spawn fairly quickly, cuts down on your camp time so there is not a lot of camping going on.
