im a reasonably high lvl (132) and simply dont understand what is fun about pking lower lvls who are trying to get some points. the reality is this problem is due to a small number of individuals who must have some dysfunction to do this as opposed to going to PvP, Duel Arena, etc (the points they get in SC from this are marginal). how about a runescape therapy group for this collection of rather pathetic ppl who get their jollies tormenting others?
if this isnt feasible, then i like the tunnel idea or go back to limiting combat to ppl with shared cbt ranges as in the old wildy

Thanks Z noc. It is usually just a few players but it happens very frequently. I played about 20 games over the past 2 days (and over 350 games total) and in almost every game there were 5 to 10 players just sitting in the base with over 5 minutes to go in the game. Right outside the base were very high level players using both mage and melee to kill everyone who tried to come or go. I'm sure members of my team were doing the same to the enemy base but I couldn't get 3 steps outside my base to even check. Just sitting and listening to the comments from those trapped players you learn quickly that they're very frustrated and not enjoying the game as intended.

Well at the end of the game there is usually not much to do but PK anyway as most of the clay is usually gone so I typically do this also then. This shouldnt effect the ability of lower lvls to get >20 sc points particularly if confined to the last 2-3 minutes of the game. What I think is more sad is when high lvls go around early in the game doing nothing but pking lower lvls and blocking them from getting any points. It rarely helps their team, earns few points for themselves, has little strategic value and serves only to torment the weak (unless there is something ive missed and ive gotten >10k sc points so far). I play alot on w158 in the evenings and this is usually just one lvl 138 and his girlfriend who is a 137 and sometimes a few others. Each game they play in quickly turns into misery for the lower lvls who then get frustrated and start complaining. So the tunnel idea is nice and it would be great to put it in play but I dont think it will address this issue.

Like the idea, but I really think this idea should be posted in the section: 'Suggestions- Minigames'.
This would get you more supporters, and it's on the right spot.

I also love to pk in stealing creation because the armour and wepons are free, I also thought that killing lower level is unfair, so now I just kill anyone with a weapon or a piece of armour, leting skillers live. So if your a killer, prefer to have that dagger in inventory.
I suggest you take use of a familiar, store every once in a while, instead of holding your runes, arrows or scroll waiting to store them at the end of the game.
