But improving the already ineffective criminal flag by subverting the claim shield system.
If you want to create a system where criminals are punished without making it a total BS system that makes PKing pretty much pointless, you need to create something with permenency, that marks that character to those who would hunt them justly.
At the end of the day, people will just powergrind PKing alts and roam around killing people
yeah exactly if you make punishment permanent people will just make alts to soak up the punishment and you will never even be able to kill their mains because they will keep them perma walled, perma punishments will just make this game so much worse.
Actually I am in favor of permenency when it comes to punishing PKers.
Specifically, PKers should be put into their own little bracket, where people can hunt them and kill them should they roam the wilds, with no criminal backlash.
Let some people be paladins roaming around smiting evil, its better then letting PKers just kill a couple of people then go hang out in a vault for a few days fending off nidbanes.
