- i have not received the post this is a response to yet, either due to a weird
- mail path or the fact that the sight immediately upstream from wixer has been
- down all week. anyway, it sounds like you're talking about something that
- happened the other night when i was on abacus. i didn't see the start, but for
- the next two hours after the scientists killed muerte, he acted like an severe
- jerk by shouting, broadcasting on the radio, and whining in our gang's communit
- band too.
- player killing is banned, sortof. if you join the outlaws, you can kill other
- outlaws for free. if an outlaw kills someone who's not outlaw, they are punished
- with death. <this is what seemed to be the case the other night>. if a non-
- outlaw kills an outlaw, they are labelled outlaw and punished with death. i
- don't recall how 2 non-outlaw fights work. anyway, from the veritable wealth of
- screaming and broadcasting that was going on, what appeared to be the case was
- the sci who killed muerte happened to be the girlfriend of the person who he was
- killing. big deal, rules are rules, and he should have just taken it and gone
- his way rather than wasting the whole muds time bitching about it.
