#4226, "How about requesting from neutrals?"


          

If that's how y'all want it, alright. IC I can still see it being ok to kill some neutrals (bandits, non-sentients, even Lord Tabershaws guards and goons who defend a mad, evil lord) but tarus and elites are right out.

Gotcha.

Thing is, I've always felt that the reason the whole "request from neutral, neutral attacks you" thing was coded in waaaaaaaay back by the Danes who made the first MUD codes was an IC way around this very tricky issue.

I.E. The goddie IC is defending himself from an attack. Yeah, it's a stretch but it helps with playability by not shutting them totally our of certain types of EQ to help with survivability and reclothing quickly.

How do you feel about this? If you guys don't like it, why not change it so neutrals just say no?
