There is no issue. Someone's mob didn't drop a gem, so the tinfoil hat was put on.

Pickpocketing gold/gems is 100% fairgame. It's a Rogue's birthright and the more expensive the gem pickpocketed off you, the bigger the badge of honor, sucker.

If they do it in groups and people think it's bad etiquette they run the risk of being a heavily group-dependent class not getting invited to groups again.

If you're an OP 50 mage-enchanter husband/wife duo please don't cry about not being able to farm enough plat. lol yeah you're so oppressed, you fucking crybaby Azeth.

Think outside the bun y'all.

Fuck off Troll.

Azeth and his Wife are good people

We were having an adult conversation about this and a tool like you tries to derail into a Rants and Flame post.

i appreciate that, but also I get the arguement for pickpocketing engaged mobs. Just relaying my opinion as both a farm class, and a rogue <-- assumed it'd be a pretty non bias opinion.

I think at least half of the people posting replies are misunderstanding the fundamental argument that began this thread.

These are topics that ARE NOT related to the thread:
Is pick pocketing an exploit?
Should pick pocketing be disabled?
Are some classes better suited for soloing?
Should pick pocketing be done in groups?
Should pick pocketing be done to unclaimed free-roaming NPCs?
Should I do something just because I can, or should I think about the impact it will have on others around me?
What are the mechanics for Pick Pocketing?

These are topics that ARE related to the thread:
Is it server policy to reserve the loot table of a NPC to the player that has actively engaged it? (Do you own the loot of the NPC that you own?)

If the answer is NO then fine, it's NO. I've just not seen any official word on the matter, anywhere. Like I said, I've got a 50 rogue already and if it so happens that the answer is NO then I'd be content to park him for gem farming. I mean why work hard when you can let someone else do it for you right? I'm only adamantly against it right now because I had assumed (perhaps wrongly) that this sort of action would be against the server rules.

(P.S. Tiggles don't think i was cracking on you in a previous post, I quoted you for reference but my replies were to the community as a whole since many share your opinions)

Having a farm class makes your opinion on pp'ing more biased, not less biased.

You farmed 50k+ or whatever on your op 50 mage/enchanter duo to twink your alt Rogue. Then you feign righteousness by taking a stance against pp'ing and act as if your opinion is somehow unbiased based on the fact that you play both classes.

No flaws in that logic at all. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
