Should a person executing death penalty be convicted afterwards?VDZ wrote:Two wrongs don't make a right.

Also, the scent execurion should have somewhat longish timer to prevent abuse in heat of combat.

Re: Criminals and owning scents
Ranging and banditry are completely different types of activity. I don't see why ranging would be considered a crime, given that the intent is to purge those that leave scents, not generate more.VDZ wrote:Two wrongs don't make a right.

Re: Criminals and owning scents
You are assuming that all non-ranging murders are banditry. What if someone steals from my Salt node, I catch him in the act, he flees, and I chase him down and kill him on unclaimed land? I killed a criminal, but I still left a murder scent. Should someone be able to kill me in response without me being able to do anything about it or avenge myself?Glorthan wrote: Ranging and banditry are completely different types of activity.

An execution is when a society determines one of its members must die for their acts. I am not part of whatever social group wants me dead for wronging them; for them to kill me is either a murder or an act of war.Zeler wrote:Should a person executing death penalty be convicted afterwards?

Re: Criminals and owning scents
FFS people. A "crime" in Haven does not mean something that is wrong or illegal. All it means is an action that leaves evidence. The name really needs to be changed..Zeler wrote:Should a person executing death penalty be convicted afterwards?VDZ wrote:Two wrongs don't make a right.
