My disappointment stems more from the inability of players to exercise RP and common sense discipline as regards PK, rather than "how a character has turned out." When it becomes more important to get gear and "win" than build meaningful conflict and RP, it's time to move on. I appreciate the advice and I acknowledge that this is the sort of whiny thread that I hate reading, too. I just had high hopes going in, and the PK environment turns out to be as immature as any other game. Hence the venting.
