Exploiting player deaths during Boss Spawns

Post by Brogan »

I'd like some clarification on the Codex rules for mutilating dead players corpses during a co=op boss fight in a group party. Recently, 6/15/2013 at 4:22 CST during a Kronus boss spawn i was killed by left over mobs and asked for a resurrection. Just before i was resurrected a person ran up to my corpse and cut and mutilated my body and took my head in a most hateful fashion, stating that they would have my head, agreed upon or not.

After i was resurrected i asked for my head back and was taunted by the persons guild and many in observance of said taunt. I feel that this is in violation of several rules in the codex and would like to resolve this calmly and in a most respectful manner. I await resolution and hope it is swift and just.

Page on the taunt with the time they were harassing you...
But cutting heads is fair game.

LOL, Great post to wake up to in the morning. :lol: If this is going to upset you this much you might want to stick to boardgames or maybe Golf.

Take this game less seriously or you will not have fun. Remember it's a game.

Locked, I have a bad feeling about this one.

Just a clarification:
It was intended that corpses should be carvable in the pvp dungeon, to get the head as a trophy for winning a battle.

Carving the corpse, as far as I know, was declared legal by +Nyx.
The code for carving a corpse has no restriction in it against carving players.

I would like to add something.

Carving corpses in any situation, while rude in some perspectives, has been allowed since I became staff. It is not an action that commands much respect if it is not consentual or agreed upon prior to death, but currently allowed. If there is harassment and mockery of any type regarding this behavior I would love to hear about it in a page. +V

Yes, it has been like that in the code from the start.
