Anyway I walk in and say, "Hail All Fellow Britanians!" but after 5 seconds of silence a woman in full plate shouts out loud "Fucking thief, watch out". I had done nothing but say hi. I was then snooped by about 3 people, then I said "I see I am not the only thief here" but since I had been flagged a thief, I decided to do what all thieves do: I snooped the thief hater's pack. "Corp Por" was all I heard and saw my 10 STR drain away. No problem - a murder count for her and an easy way to loot the tavern for me. So, I watched the "so called role-players talk about how they killed a bitch-ass thief" then the bartender yells "closing time". Woohoo I think as the place clears out, I insta-res and loot away, nothing but junk! 100 flour bags, 100 bottles of wine... "Jesus" I think as I chuck everything outside and keep searching. I finally find a cupboard full of GH's and poison potions and a lot of food. "Great" I think as I can use all of these for my new pk mage char. Seeing nothing left of value, I decide that if the tavern permits murdering, it must permit stealing, so I gather all the furniture and throw it in a bag. Suddenly I hear a recall and a guy in blue appears outside the door. "SHIT" I think as he opens the door and saw the place empty except for a bag.
I sit there hidden wondering what to do, I log as he reveals me. My plan ruined, but the next day I come back with a new char.
Doing the same trick, I again insta-res in the empty tavern clearing the place out, but every time getting caught, each time by a guy seeing me outside and calling all his friends.
Well, I try everything one last time and well - I get caught again, but this time I decide to try em out instead of just logging. Suddenly, a guy logs into the house. I am in the middle of screwing their furniture plan up again. He saw me hide and casts reveal on me, I pop out and hide again, he continues this another 5 times before giving up and recalling out. That was too easy I thought. I continued to move the tables and chairs around. Suddenly a gate appears, 5 journeyman looking mages jump out and immediately walk into the house, "he's in here" I heard the guy who couldn't kill me in the first place say. Then I was spammed with "in vas flam" being a newbie thief who has just res'd those things really hurt, so I threw tables everywhere blocking them as they cast it on top of me while I hide. This went on for around 10 minutes! 6 guys vs 1 newbie thief, I couldn't stop laughing, I took a screenshot of before and after. Well after I finally died and was given the ghost speech of " You Fucking Suck Ghost, We Kicked Your Lame Ass!" well of course it usually takes a while to kill a thief with 10 str.
Anyway, I res and come back to the house, I see a guy in there named Balin. I walk along, keeping out of view from him, he is re-arranging the furniture I had so carelessly scattered and he is opening the door and getting the furniture from outside. Well I walk a screen away and hide, he walks out again, I run to the door and hide outside it. Waiting patiently I suddenly hear "UUGGNNN" I run around the corner of the house to see an orc mage standing over the corpse of Balin. JACKPOT!! I search the corpse: key ring for me, runes to houses for me, regs and plate for me.
hehe I run to Yew and log off while Balin ICQ's all his friends to kick my newbie ass.
Well, I continually loot the tavern until they finally close it and beg GM's for a lockdown on their furniture. But I will come back and take their useless food and cash thanks to my new key and I having the runes to houses and a key ring I find 2 more houses packed with stuff.
