Witch Hunter - 2/24/2007 7:49 AM*snip* (though the lose of soulstrands shouldnt be possible, we're trying to have fun after all, and there is no gain to either sides beyond roleplay to such a situation... so it wouldnt make sense, its not like you're farming xp)

Leanthar - 2/24/2007 8:28 AM We will (at some point in the future) I hope have PvP zones that will be like a "capture the flag" sort of thing where players will be fighting over towers/forts/keeps and perhaps resources (of some kind or another) in that location. But this is a full PvP area and will not be "required" to explore or have fun--so if you don't like it stay out of it.
Stephen_Zuckerman - 2/24/2007 8:50 AMPerhaps I have more faith in the community than many, but... I honestly think that this inclusion will work, and will have the intended positive effect.That said, time will tell. And if I'm right, I reserve the right to let off a good-natured "I told you so." You naysayers get the same if you're right. Personally, I have never been a fan of "open" PvP. However, the PvP allowed with WL or DM interaction has always seemed great... Except for one thing: There's not always an WL or DM around who has a spare moment to assess the situation and click on the wand. They're busy people; no fault of theirs. This will take them out of the loop on this, and... I think that, aside from a few of the newer players, the PvP tool will be used with regard to RP rather than anything else.And if nothing else, "Pyyran uses PvP Wand" puts across the idea that my threat when "Pyyran draws his sword" is real. More than enough to end most conflicts then and there.
Eight-Bit - 2/25/2007 3:04 PM I think everyone needs to just chill out and wait. You're forgetting what server you're playing on. Layonara has been PvP free for as long as I have been here and Leanthar is taking a bold step forward in giving everyone the game they want to play. Instead of worrying about it, or claiming it will have no positive effect on Layonara, you should wait and see. .
