Ayazz, I only mentioned misunderstanding your point because of your response in the other thread.

sure its mean, but it sure is funny in a screwed up way.
In response to some of the points Marleau has brought up:
1) There is no natural mob pathing to the area where people are running their bazaars, two ways someone would get killed here is either accidentally due to someone trying to solo something and not making the zone, or because someone intentionally sets out to kill others.
2) Common sense to me would mean you wouldn't intentionally do something detrimental to others for
fun. If it shouldn't be done, you shouldn't have to worry about it happening.
3) I really don't see the correlation of intentional MPK of low level people, in a
normally safe location, pertaining to avoidance of Jeuno tax/AH listing fees. The people that do use a bazaar mule out there are using them to make items available for others to buy, not always to avoid AH listings fees(some items can not be sold on the AH), and taxes don't cost the seller anything, how many buyers want to throw 100K to several million away in tax when they buy a cursed piece/mannequin part/uber expensive godly item/etc? If it left them there dead in the zone, it would be one thing, but after an hour they HP. They've managed to keep someone from selling desired items as well as prevented someone from being able to buy them without throwing money away.
4) I don't use a level 1 mule outside, because I'm a pessimist after seeing what people do for fun and how people think it's funny because it isn't directly detrimental to them. You're stessing that people are
whining an awful lot. Why is expressing what is apparently an unpopular view on something generally agreed as a bad thing to do, nevermind a punishable offense against the ToS, considered whining? Are you so jaded after obtaining your three level 75 jobs that you don't give a damn about what happens to others in the community?
I'll never understand why people think an intentionally detrimental act to others is funny, or something
fun to do. IMO, if you can rationalize why it's ok for this to happen, you're intelligent enough to understand why it's wrong. Believing it's ok and/or funny, or that people shouldn't be able speak out about it being wrong says something about either your ethics or your maturity, at the very least your sense of respect for your fellow players. Some of whom might actually be trying to play this game to have fun themselves, possibly even without doing so at the expense of anyone else.
This is the last I'll say on this topic, if most of the community want's to believe this is an ok thing to happen, far be it from me to be a party pooper and express an unwanted view. Carry on with the posts about how funny senseless MPK is, maybe even more people will get in on the act after seeing how cool people think it is. Maybe one of them will realize there are spawnable NMs aggro lvl 60+ they can zone over and they'll kill a lot more than just the low levels. Wouldn't that be cool?
