Suggestions for changing the MPK systemFollow

If the NM was zoned, it would go directly back to the home point immediately, meaning back on the top of the spawning list. (read a thread before you call it stupid).

The GM's CANT do everything we say. They cant put someone at the zone of a HNM spawn because remember there are ALOT of servers, and ALOT of HNM spawns. *Hire is the spelling you wanna go for. The GM's are doing all they can, and I've been playing for 23 months, thanks.

The GMS obviously are doing all they can do. They have become stricter with MPKing, but SE is trying to stop MPKing ALL TOGETHER, so the GM's can stop getting craploads of calls every few minutes about it. Then, they can have their GM's doing other things, and then the developers can focus on making the game better in OTHER ways. I just reported a Gil seller on my server, that person hasnt been on yet. The problem is, they can just buy a new content ID, and thats perfectly within ToS. They're be ready to go in a month again...

Fix the Linking system, and there wont be trains...like i said, my answer is the most logical, and easiest to pull of.

Tell that to the court.
"Why did you ban him?"
"He looked like a gil seller."
"Any evidence to prove it?"
"Not really, just had a huge gut feeling."

IMO not enough players are banned for ruining the game for others. The thing that irritates me the most regarding this subject is the RMT's who MPK who ever claims the nm they are attempting to claim. I don't know how many times i've watched this happen by the same small groups of RMT players and I've called GM's a couple of times with no effect other than a pleasant conversation with a GM. I understand that SE does not want to ban people since that would cancel some of their income but if players cannot play by the rules they should be punished. It seems the only thing that happens is the MPKer will get a tell saying something along the lines of, "Don't do that again."
I know I'm exagerating here but I'm sure you get the point.

I have another one... on the lines of preventing MPK through deterrent.

Suggestion: If someone is blatantly guilty of intentional MPK and is jailed and suspended for such, have it so the GM's could levy an additional penalty, such as after the out-of-game suspension ends, an additional AH suspension for a set amount of time.

Could also throw in Airship and Chocobo suspensions, like say 1 day of no AH and Airship/Chocobos for first offense, 2 for 2nd, and go exponential assuming a permenant ban from doesn't take place.

Could also throw in a Delivery Service suspension as well to prevent violators from just shipping something to a mule and auctioning off that way, and possibly make NPC Vendors notice the AH ban too.

And in cases where a permanent ban isn't put into place yet violations keep occuring, levy fines on the violators gil, say 25% or 10000 for first offense, whichever is greater, and up it by 25% or multiply the static value by 10 each time, with the 4th time this is done (and if someone's still violating and still able to play by this point, they shouldn't be allowed to play anyways) they would forfeit all gil for the violation.

In summary:
- MPK results in game suspension.
- MPKer comes back, and finds additional suspension from:
-- Auction House (anything on auction at time of suspension is immediately delisted and returned to delivery box, fees forfeited).
-- Chocobo Stables
-- Airships from all cities, not just Jeuno
-- Delivery Service (I forget the actual name)
-- NPC Vendors.
-- Perhaps Inter-player trades as seen fit.
- Maybe even levy gil fines in extreme cases that don't get permanent bans.

It may not in itself prevent MPKing, but it should act as a deterrent, especially against RMT violators who use the AH as a primary tool for their activities.

Another Suggestion: This is along the lines of previous suggestions, but have like a town crier in all cities with a list of recent MPKers and other violators, with punishments levied. (Of course, you'd have to actually talk to the NPC.) This would be useful to not only help us players find out who to watch out for, but also help Linkshell leaders investigate player behavior based on individual LS rules as well, further helping the community police itself.

I have a suggestion. With the fellowship/escort quests, there's some sort of AI for certain NPCs... why not give this to the region guards? If a mob comes too close to an outpost, or to a zone, the region guards attack and kill the mob (kinda like the guards in WoW). This would eliminate any possibility of zoning out and having the mob link onto somebody else.

If the mob is claimed, then the guard can't attack it, but otherwise the guard just kills it.

Not of any big concern, but more fodder for the cannon.

Party in Kuftal Tunnel was just Greif Killed by a Haunts AoE Curse. An once again, Im going to side with changing the AoE effect to party-only people affected by a monsters AoE.

And yes... Ghosts take to long to move out from the zone there in Kuftal. -_-

I've been playing FF11 since PS2 beta. Now me GF and I play together with 2 accounts, 1 on PS2 and 1 on PC. We've been MPK'ed a few times by people who were either gil sellers or jealous of our claim. Either way MPking has become an issue for all of us. Many of the suggestion posted here are good but infact will significatly impact gameplay.
I also think that many of them like the no aggro til mob returns to spawn point may be a temperary solution in High MPK areas. If this was to be implimented everywhere and forverer we might find ourselves facing more problems.
Unfortunatly the only way to significantly stop MPKing may be to have someone to monitor areas and NM spawns such as Serket and Rock. This will undoubtably put a few burden on SE and there GM's. I suggest that certain virtuous players been given responsability for short periods of time in areas and without taking action report there findings to SE GM's who can inturn take effective action based on reports from Key "TEMP GM" players.
I personally have yet to get my WHM GF a serket ring but would gladly monitor and record such NM's like Serket or Rock @ various times in order to help other players gain the FF experience. Beeing a Long time player i think this would be a good responibility to give virtuous, indifferent, and experienced players.
Thankyou and please let me know if I can help in anyway.

Fix it so a mob claimed by someone else will not attack anyone outside of the party.

Fix it so that if a mob is slept by one group, another group claiming it gets hate immediately. I was MPK'd once by a link my party slept. Another party claimed our mob, but did not touch it at all. When it awoke, it was purple to us, and we could not touch it. They stood by laughing while it beat our mages to death, then the rest of us. We were totally helpless. Fix this please.

Fix it so the Paladin Invincible trick won't pull hate. I've seen Paladins dump a Cure IV on someone in a party tanking Simurgh and Roc before, then pop Invincible off, and pull hate. Then the PLD runs off and eventually claim drops on the mob and the Paladin's buddies steal it. That's BS and should be fixed.

Welcome! This is my first time posting on the forums also!

I do have a few comments about my gameplay, I have noticed when I zone a monster that could kill me and i'm low on hp that when i zone the monster hits me and I either die or lose extreme amounts of hp. I was wondering if this was just my internet connection or just something in the database. If it cannot be changed that is okay with me i just think it is annoying and kindof unfair.

I will wait to see if it fixed or get some feedback on if it cannot be changed.

^^;

after reading all posts, I have got an idea may help alot.

1. If the mob agro, then it'll go red [ claimed ].
2. If MPKer/Zoner/Trainer/Warper left the zone, the mob still red[ claimed ] till it back to its pop spot. That's will prevent the mob from agroing another cuz it is already got someone and tell the others that this mob won't hurt till it back to its home poin>

then let anyone try to MPK me, by agroing or doing anything, it'll be useless.

SE, you should say thnx to alla site and me *lol*

Multiple Player Killer? o_o;

only problem with the 'karma' idea is that if anyone can attack them when there karma is low, then there gonna get jumped while there xping too. The other people in his party will be upset about him getting killed too..cause it wastes his party members time now...and they are innocent to the situation. I know you think to just not invite someone who has bad karma...but what if he is the only tank or healer your lvl seeking? Now, you would think ok...only let him get attacked while he is solo, but he's safe in a party...well what happens now is that the gilsellers with bad karma just stay in parties with there gilselling friends just to avoid being jumped. the karma idea would not work with simple programming, i am certian of that.
