I like my idea of the kingdoms setting up their own police force sort of..Cept of course they wouldn't be called Police..Given some old style name or something. :O

But if you make it clear from the start "Have fun, be respectful, RP, You PK.. You DIE!" then there are less problems...

There should be a system, like if multipul people report a player pking there should be a quick investigation and if the person has been PKing, warn them and send them to a web page listing the Rules to make sure they are aware of them... second time, Jail for a month, third time, ban.
Nothing was ever done about it on 2k1 and it hasnt become that big a deal. Only spot there is really alot of pking is to the left of the admin house.

RPG's don't work well unless everyone RP's (hence the name.) Fighting on Graal isn't really outstanding to begin with... If you want a PKing game go play Medal of Honor, CS, Quake, or something, at least those have more realistic fighting

It's in Graal's best interest to keep 2002 as an RP server.

I like the idea for each kingdom to have staff aswell...

Well if you stand there in that area all the time. generally I dont find pking that big a problem. Normally if you keep moving away they stop. What I hate is when a pker attacks you the runs off and heals when he gets his ass kicked.

Personally, I like the idea of forced RP. You want PKing? Go somewhere else; there's no shortage of players over at Classic or Graal2001... Anyway, true RPGs don't work if you have complete freedom. Imagine what Final Fantasy or Zelda would be like if you could kill off all the main characters whenever you wanted.

We could have things like Priests and Mages to enforce rules in specific kingdoms. And we could have server-wide law enforcers.. like, in the US, there's the FBI for overseeing the whole country, and there's regional police departments for each area. Just give them some more old-fashioned names. Administrator could become Executioner, for example.

Most RPGs don't actually have forced RP =\
Look at Ultima Online for example.

Yes, but people dont go on/subscribe to games like Everquest or something to PK, they subscribe to RP, what Graal is dealing with is a group of players who never really RPed on Graal and just decide to PK everything that moves... They ruin the game for everyone else. In other words, in some places it's not enforced because it doesn't NEED to be, Graal has plenty of other non-RP servers, *cough* classic *cough*, and Stefan promised 2002 would be more RP, the players wanted RP, thats what Stefan is giving us, so why put all that work into creating a good RP gameing environment just to let PKers ruin it?

I think we should build a huge under-ground maze that has one exit, and PKers can just get warped there, maybe after looking for a way out for a few weeks they'll wise up hehehe

Actually many people like to play Ultima Online or Everquest because they like pking :P
Also, forced RP on G2K2 is never good, because about half the people doesn't like RPing and the game will make much less money :P

RPer's tend to be the people online more, and the ones who spend alot of $ on games, because they are bored with FPS like CS.

RPer's wont be attracted to Graal if the RPing sucks.

I like RPGs, I know that most of the people who spend money on online games spend it on RPGs, however, people don't like to be forced to act like their characters on the game.
