Rattlebones-
Common sense runs rampant within my clan. Yes - I do ks mobs from my guys and yes I am proud when they do the same to me. It shows me they are the faster/stronger opponent and I'm damn proud to have them on my team when we are working on a boss.
Btw interesting quote - altered a bit I see---
Fools DIE for lack of wisdom
Re: What is not kill stealing
#12We also have many fast and strong guys I am proud to have in my clan and also to do bosses with 
who are also not greedy or selfish, or like to take things off others.. But like I said, their are many types of players out there

Re: What is not kill stealing
#14I just want to add 1 thing on this topic from a Rangers point of view.
We kill things from a distance, Bolas, Sharp Shart, Barbed, then auto attack.
If someone runs in after I have Bolas'd and started my skills I'm not holding back, i keep on going.
Point is classes have different skills and different methods of killing. Getting told by a warrior I KS'd him because I killed a mob from a hillside away as he was running up to it... Sorry, just playing my ranger.

When you are dead, you don't know you are dead. It is difficult only for others. It is the same when you are stupid.

Re: What is not kill stealing
#15in my opinion: when two groups start at about the same time - it is competition and not KS. I consider it a KS, and plain poor sportsmanship, to engage a monster that another person or group has made progress on - and take the kill because your group can do more damage and faster.
i don't get too excited about kills that are relatively easy for both people - most of the time the 'KS' is more about both casting and one person's attack happens before the other can stop.
What annoys me is if my druid is in a long battle with a boar, i am winning - slowly but surely and trying to lvl up, and some warrior comes along and kills it in one swipe. That is KS and rude.
or if my group is killing a boss, making steady progress, and then another, stronger group comes in and starts killing it faster and we lost the drops. Again, just plain rude. That is a KS.
Just because you can do something in the game, doesn't mean it is honorable to do it.
my 2 cents.

Re: What is not kill stealing
#16I just wish they made a one way door that only high levels (80+?) could pass through into a new play area! ;-)
It is a drag when a higher lvl steals a kill you have been working five minutes on to discover if you can actually do it! Or when some high lvl steals your kill and gives you a smart remark. While these seem less than common; they need not happen often for one to feel cheated. In fact, once is enough.
At the same time I get sick and tired of all the cries of KSer when they are simply close calls and should be accepted as part of the game.
As for the campers; there I certainly feel it should be excepted as a free for all camper battle of the fittest; with respect to what Pappi said: If you already have all the dragons you need, PLEASE just help outside the grp for others! If you have other characters you want dragons for; let your other characters get them!!
Drop hoarders suck!
