Sounds like taunting to me.

Yes there is RP involved in this game. Yes, gear shouldn't matter. But we all know it does. And we all know when you get killed and come back to an empty corpse (Or heavily looted corpse) that it feels like garbage.

I'm sure there is a way to RP with someone without being an ass. I don't think it's too much to ask or too hard of a task to accomplish.

You're playing a necro. You could have embalmed the corpse or embalmed a piece of the body and used that in your RP. But you didn't.

Even though you have every right to loot as you please, you still drive people away with such practices. The game has (largely) moved past these practices. When you do it, you put yourself in the asshole category. And many of us will judge you accordingly.

Enjoy being a big bad mummy. And an ass. You could be much much better if you wanted to be.
