Notice that this mud is called CarrionFields. Expect to die,
expect that there will be players who only play this game for
one reason: to kill everyone in their range. I am guessing that
said newbie probably got multikilled because he threw a fit or
started crying, possibly going ooc at the person that killed him.

From every death you take you should learn what you did wrong, this
will make you a better player in the long term. Now the newbie will
know not to trust people, especially not an evil imperial, thats just
common sense.

>Are there countermeasures to stop people from level sitting and popping off people like it's nobodies business?

You can go sit in your guild/at the Inn for some sort of protection,
though this will only make you a weaker player in the long run. Just
learn to deal with dying, learn how the class matchups go, avoid
those classes that can rip you a new one and hunt those you have a
good chance against, at least until you get a handle on the art that
is playerkilling in CF.

Romanul.
