Pat suspected Dragon was macroing due to his lack of pent hitting. We spoke about it in info for about a half hour with no responses from him over our public conversation about his suspected macroing. Pat then found him, he was in stealth in the very back of 29s, cute. Pat observed him for 10-15 minutes just standing. I observed him for like 10 minutes. Pat and others eventually killed him via a clan fued. I hung out with his corpse for 30 minutes and watched his questies rot. He made no movement or attempt to do anything during this time. This was poetic justice but completely unacceptable. It ruins the economy, it ruins the game, unacceptable imo. I put in time to make my characters and this kind of thing completely undermines it. I sent /complaints but wasn't sure if that was set up so I wanted to make sure it was reported. I tried to document this as well as I could via screenshots.

Here's photos of the body in the process of rotting and finishing the rotting process. I suggest we set up a shrine of some kind at this location.

As much as I like the idea of you punishing an AFK Macro player, looking deeper than this, Id like to have a look at the way Feud is set up?
Were you able to loot his body after killing him?
At the moment, the community isn't too bad, its generally full of the nice people (with a few exceptions) but if this version attracts everyone from the Astonia community, this could potentially be abused by clan leaders to promote stealing sets.
Say Pat has a rank 4 in a clan and he sets up a second clan, which he is rank 4 in, only costs 5 cjs a week to maintain.
Pat then promotes clan 1, recruits lots of new players into it, watches them level and gain bits of gear here and there.
Pat then puts a pvp alt into Clan 2, sets feud on both clans, and kills his fellow clannies from Clan 1 to steal their gear?
this is why feud was disabled in the first place, I remember being on my main, getting asked to go to Clan hall, I went there and I had 3 players sat in waiting as I landed from the tele, to whoop my ass. luckily I always carry a recall and got away but if I didn't, it woulda been RIP +20 mage set.
don't get me wrong, I am not against feud being in the game, It could be well cool if used properly, that being said, I think it should come with a sharp warning, maybe upon players logging in to the game, it stating in big red letters in capitals.
"" FEUD IS ENABLED IN THIS CLAN "" so if you weren't planning on taking part in it, you could just leave the clan before carrying on with the game.

I'm not opposed to changing feud. As a guy working on sets, I agree. I did not think about it. This was our work around to get him out of pents and making it more difficult for him

9 times out of 10 you are fine.
just never join a clan where one of the players is a leader in 2 clans and you would be ok. Unless more than one person is in on it lol.

I'm down for setting up feud mode as arena style deaths (you keep everything). Any thoughts?

I like that idea. I think clan was always meant to be arena style. Look at the change from V2, where it was a winner takes all death to v3 where it is almost exclusive arena.

Macroing in pents isn't much different than macroing in mines -- might have to set up several alts in pents to prevent solves and farm stones.
