Actually, yes I do empathize. And although I display sociopathic
tendencies,
I don't make a habit of killing people for the pure joy of it all the time.
PK
combat has a very unique rush in my experience, and even in situations where
I
know I will win by a landslide, I usually end up shaking by the end of
combat. Even of the vicious PK people I know, this seems to be a common
experience.

Morals are subjective, and dependent upon the belief structure of the
individual.
In the particular MUD I am using as an example, my character is of a guild
that is evilly aligned by both occupation and religion.

In essence. My character is a fighter-mage. As such, a fighter will fight.
It's
the point of playing such a character.

Again, this is where society comes into play. My character has many allies,
and many enemies. Not all of the allies can protect themselves. In fact,
many cannot. Not all of them want to be an "enforcer" of sorts, or have to
be able to protect themselves individually. So in accordance with our
alliance, I would protect and/or avenge them should another player opt
to attack them with intent to kill. This I believe is fitting with previous
discussion about how the tailor might be able to go travel the world
without too much fear of death and dismemberment. Also fitting with
previous discussions is the fact that I would not take the tailor with me
if I was going to a place that would be dangerous to them.

Using a medieval/AD&D setting where the tailor would be befitting (by my
understanding of the scenario at any rate), those would not be generally
friendly times. People didn't often wander off from the safety of the local
lord's castle unless they were planning to protect themselves, or they rode
with escort. Please note that most rich people rode with significant escort
in that time period.

I haven't met many, but in those times, killing someone to get food or money
was
not unheard of, and a case could even be made that it was commonplace. What
perhaps was not commonplace was for a lone knight fighter to wander the
realms
killing for pleasure. Then again, why not? If that's your character, how
is that
unbefitting the theme/reality?

We don't have any pure tailors, but we do have plenty of people that cannot
defend themselves adequately in PK combat. The game is still playable,
but they do end up depending on large fighter types for protection at times.

Except in a situation such as mine, where there already exists a ranking
based on conflict, the first step would need to be a redefinition, which
could later disappear after things readjusted themselves. In the absence
of a top list, people have found other conflict related ways of ranking
against each other -- not excluding PK combat to see who could kill
who.

It might. My past experiences with muds are that social pressure
can make a lot of things happen. And if 99% of the mud puts their
backing and pressure behind such a system, regardless of how
psychotic an individual might be, they will tend to either accept
the societal norm in some manner, or they will end up leaving.
People get bored when no one reacts to their behaviour, and to a
reasonable extent, PK combat amounts to ego building and
making someone else react. If they don't react, then the fun is gone.

Unfortunately, running around to repair weapons, or buy clothing doesn't
require a group to do, although it is socially more enjoyable to go with
others. Requiring a group to be able to buy a bolt of cloth or to have
an item repaired seems outside of the simulation. For what things
specifically would you require a group other than quests?

Good point. However, in our case, we don't have a vampire, we
have a rope, that suspends a hotel over the realm. One of our
quests is to "liberate" the chateau by killing the rope, causing it
to come crashing down, killing everything inside. Merely being
able to kill the rope is an accomplishment, but to do so in a way
that doesn't cause your own death is quite an interesting feat.
By the way, the rope is a very non-standard NPC, in that it causes
a factor of the damage you cause it back against you, so simply
having better weapons or armours won't make it that much easier.
It adds a good bit of status to be able to say you've beaten the
rope.

I honestly think that society itself will solve the problem. Througout
discussion of this scenario, the only thing that I can see that could
be done would be to provide the tools to be able to self-regulate
problems like groups of marauding sociopathic killers. The problem
with doing an in-game, in-code solution is that eventually someone
will outsmart it (see previous postings about M59 and the revenants
I believe). It'll just be a smaller group that manages to do so.
