I guess you are right. That won´t work against all those just out for the "lulz".
Ever watched that great "Idiocracy" Movie? That is the future of our western culture!

I drink two cans of this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tbxq0IDqD04 every time before going to slaughter bilions of bluesuits and innocent NPCs just for teh lulz. xD :P

Basically, robbing is going to prevent a kid with a lot of items, who is right next to exit grid, from leaving unharmed. It's imbalanced to shit.
This game is about wasteland survival. It's about teaming up or being so efficient and sly that you can survive alone. It IS about shooting - in case you didn't know, those items you hold in your hand to shoot critters are called guns. Guns kill people/critters. And you're right about WOW. Everyone hates that game because they suck at it and can't level... and yet there's still millions of players that play every day... odd they must REALLY hate that game.
Basically dude, if you can't level and are getting frustrated, you're doing something wrong. Play smart, stop whining, get some decent outdoors skill.
The great thing about this game is the risk factors you must consider before each action. You can lose everything on your person in one wrong move, and for many people that is exciting... Don't ruin the game by introducing some conservative wasteland stealing system... I mean hell, there aren't even officers of the law out in the wastes, so who the fuck is going to stop you from killing anyone you see anyway? The way I see it, this suggestion should be locked and forgotten.
I'd prefer if this game wasn't ruined. thanks :)

Of course. Did it ever cross your mind that I was expressing an opinion? Hence the "The way I see it" part. I thought the point here was to express our opinions as beta testers :) (I'll admit, my previous comment was a little heated)
Okay to clerify my main point. This isn't needed because it's redundant. It's not gonna stop blue suit killings, that's up to the player. It achieves the same results as killing players, except killing players has an added ego boost. Before you can click the prompt to rob, the player may have already left the grid. If you are successful... What choice does the other player have then to run? Who is going to offer up all their items just to "live". Being a blue suit makes you as good as dead anyway so run or die is the only option.

But I think measures should be taken against those, because it realy sucks to have every MMORPG ruined by them.
I don´t know them personally, but I gues most of them are betwenn 12-17 years old, playing all the day computer games
Why should they be allowed to ruin everybodys elses "gaming experience", just because they need to compensate for beeing bullied on the scoolyard by other kids not playing computer all the day?
It´s not that problem for me. I like boring strategy games like panzergeneral and civilization and thus don´t have a problem with tedious, repeating tasks.
And as I am quite unforgiving, I will hunt them down as soon as I am strong enough to do.
But I would prefer to have some real roleplaying game with MMO. If I want to play a shooter, than I play Duke Nukem 3d with Hi-Res pack, or something like that.
If I want to kill other players for fun, I play a shooter with others using LAN.
A MMORPG is not supposed to be a playground for little real life loosers.
Fonline ist the first MMORPG I play, because I don´t have that much time for gaming that a commercial game would be reasonable (paying monthly), but I loved Fallout 1+2. As far as I have read it is the same in every other MMORPG, so Fonline maybe the last that I play too.
For Fonline thats not the big problem, as it is not commercial. WoW etc. are more sensitive to PK (as far as I know), as Blizzard don´t wants 80% of new players stopping playing (and paying) frustrated.
BUT, as far as I have read here the developers have big plans for the future of Fonline and a lot of good features will be senseless if this problem is not dealt with.
When everybody is just killing for fun and loot, maybe fighting to controll cities with their faction for even more loot and killing fun, then every other feature won´t be used, or cannot be used by players not interested in this, as long as the new feature don´t deals with new ways to kill people for the "lulz" and loot.

I think players should be allowed to behave anyway they feel in a free roam MMO. And for your information, some of the best and most successful MMO's are HIGHLY PVP based. Take guild wars, WOW, and Aion as examples. I think your main problem here is that you often get killed and it's pissing you off. Make some friends in game and get some back up - watch out for suspicious individuals. you make it sound like it's hard to enjoy this game, but I have had an awesome time playing this game. I don't mind getting killed and I love playing for lulz. This whole idea of robbing someone so they can get robbed again just spells abuse. You're basically scape goating miners to make this suggestion look useful - when in reality it's going to wipe out solo mining. I can tell you already, when I go HQ mining, I go in groups of 5-7. We take 2 sledges and everyone carries a little bit. so what if 1 person dies, but at least we aren't getting robbed over and over just so we get to keep our sledge hammers...
