Knock Out

it was too hard to gain exp at sb, it will be impossible now. there are 70 sleeper at there and priests and some other chars mob train over 50 of 70. That means 50 of them stay alive and atk to 6-7 player at map. rest 45 players try to kill that 20 sleeper. This sound is some crazy )

Well, since those players are creating an inconvenience for you, feel free to file a complaint with some screenshots. Honestly, I don't think removing that rule will play a big role, since there's still rule 9.3.

Knock Out

maybe they can do some change about rules like, they can let us do ks if some1 carry more than 5 mob ))

And it was helpful; after pm them about 9.4 mobtrain , some of decide to stop or teleporting than i could kill their mobs

It's been discussed in Russian forum, it's still unacceptable to killsteal even from a mobtrainer. Though, you may and should continue to warn violators in pm or in public chat. Warn them that they create inconvinience for you and that it's against the rule 9.3.

I think these two posts should be translated too, so one can fully understand the new rules. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to do that, so I'll just post the links, so Шокко can easily find them.

As far as I understand its the exact opposite. If other players are creating inconvenience for you by mob training, but are able to kill the mob you can't do anything against that.

I'm still not sure what is going to be the consequence of this rule change, especially for the maps like sleeper and hill wind. I don't really like it from the first impression, but let's wait a little, time will tell.

So, what... was the mob training rule removed just because it was redundant? If people are gathering enough monsters to cause such an inconvenience, that would count as the excessive mob training. But now with the rule removed, it seems to send a message to players that they can go crazy with mobbing, even though basically... they never should have changed their behavior?

You may as well have just left in the rule to be crystal clear. :unknown:
