In the eyes of the Alla forum, yes, you, everyone in your LS, your in game job, your RL job, your friends list, your /blist, your wife/gf/bf/sheep/dog and anyone you have talked to in the past 15 years are condemed to being evil people in FFXI (regardless if they play or not) and you shall suffer the wrath of all the righteuos saviours that grace the landscape that is Vandy, that have or would never, never, NEVER pull someone elses mob.
This memo shall be circulated throughout the Shiva server shortly, i believe through your delivery box:
Page 150, subsection 10, part b: "thou shall not claim any mobs without formal, written consent of everyone in the area. If said consent is brought under controversy, the parties shall random for the right to think of claiming said mob, best of 7. Once the random is done, you shall Ro Sham Bo (a.k.a. paper, rock, scissor) between the two victors (new emotes will be added in the next update). This shall be witnessed by a new GM function known a 'notary' where you will recieve a stamp of approval.
Then, and only then, shall you think of raising your weapon to attack said monster. However, before actually striking a blow, you will say, in shout, /shout "was this mob seen by anyone or their party members?" and regardless if the other party members are AFK, sleeping or even just considering joining, you will not strike a blow. All offenders shall be jailed for a minimum of 1 full earth year and crucified on any/all public forums."
As far as the job of BST, i have submitted a draft addendum which states: "BST shall be the supreme rulers of Vandy. Any other job shall look at them as one step above a GM, with supreme ruling powers and rights. All others shall stay 10 steps behind any BST under 60, and in front dropping rose petals for any above 60...." there is more but you get the gist.
Man, if there was ever a need for a
<SARCASIM> or
<THIS IS A JOKE> button, here would be the place to put it....
