If anyone really believes pickpocketing is okay for engaged mobs head into Hate or Fear while a guild clears and start pulling the gems off the trash mobs. Watch how fast your ass gets suspended

I wasnt saying that it would not break the rules, it was more like a "I wish this was a pvp server so i could slay the OP's ass over and over and drink his tears" sort of thing.

Pickpocket on rogues was the classic vision of Verant when this game was made.

As a fellow OP mage I say give rogues a break let them farm diamonds off you.

Also half the time most people dont grind with see invis on so you might not even notice them.

Thats a good point, most of the players of classic were on blue servers, was pickpocket disabled on live blue servers?

to be honest i asked a while back in a diff. thread about a separate loot table for rogues, as I thought I remembered not having to worry about stealing my own groups on Rodcet Nife (blue).

To answer your Q Taxi, pickpocket was fully enabled and apparently pulled the loot out of the same loot table. I must have misremembered having a pickpocket loot table separate from the normal one according to the replies I received.

On live I would tell groups that it pulled from a seperate loot table and didnt effect drops from the group.

Shit was Ca$h

I usually ML'd in my groups, pumped STR into my rogue even back in the day. Pretty sure I was usually fair about splitting the gems both looted and PP'd when doing Sebilis for examp.

In the words of Taysh, a Wood Elf Rogue and Officer of Vesica Dei, who upon being asked wtf he was doing as he repeatedly pickpocketed someone killing SGs in Oasis, had this to say:

"I am a Rogue, I will do whatever I wish."

Not quite...

The only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man can’t do. For instance, you can accept that your father was a pirate and a good man or you can’t. But pirate is in your blood, boy, so you’ll have to square with that some day. And me, for example, I can let you drown, but I can’t bring this ship into Tortuga all by me onesies, savvy? So, can you sail under the command of a pirate, or can you not?

However comical your PVP related comments on a PVE server are, they just aren't relavent and serve no purpose in the thread whatsoever, but I applaud you for trying to think outside the bun.

If this were a PVP server then I would have snared, feared, and laughed at the rogue ...not killing him ..just keeping him perpetually feared and snared. But this isn't. So I couldn't. So, yeah, here we are.
