Hail! I am an old player of Carrion Fields (2-3 years or so give or take). It was the only MUD I ever truely enjoyed and got immersed in. I had a character in the Tribunal for a while, and later one that was in Servants of the Dawn. Lately I have been kind of missing Mudding and was thinking of coming back and playing again. I have a question regarding my one and only major gripe with the game (which was the biggest contributer to my leaving in the first place due to the frustration it caused.

I know this game has a heavy emphasis on PK, which I enjoyed. Do players still have the ability to loot the ENTIRE corpse of another player they just killed? I can't count how many times that I was jumped by a group of other players, then losing every single piece of gear I spent much time in obtaining. I would reappear naked, then probably get killed again once or twice running to round up some minor items just to arm myself. Assuming I made it to killing a couple mobs to get a weapon and a piece of armor, I'd get killed again and lose those 2 pieces as well. It drove me insane! I found it highly unappealing that a weeks worth of effort could be gone in 2 seconds. There was FAR too much work involved in re-equipping yourself, and it made the game VERY unbalanced. Fully equipped people running around slaughtering naked people left and right with nothing to gain just wasn't fair. I was never into that myself, and I had a warrior in tribunal that was very powerful (he lived off the spoils that we horded from criminals in town hehe). Some players would leave gear alone and only take 1 or 2 pieces that appealed to them, but for the most part most every player would loot the whole thing just for giggles. Has this rule been altered at all?

That one little area of this game made no sense to me, simply because I can't picture someone undressing a corpse and taking every single thing on a victims person if it happened in a RL battle. Every other aspect of the game was fantastic to me. I'd love to come back and contribute to the world, but before doing so I had to express my views on the PK loot issue.
