Don't steal dead people! 02/04/2004 11:50 AM CST
This was my bemused and minor pet peeve of the night of the last Crossing Invasion. People kept stealing my dead people out from under me!

I was dragging a dead friend, and of course, you get 3 second round time. So as I was resting, apparently with my eyes closed, suddenly an overly eager person grabbed the dead person into the cleric guild, which was one step away. I know this person was just trying to help, and kept running from the cleric guild to find dead people and back and forth. The trouble was I didn't notice it, and stood there for a minute or so wondering why I could not drag the person into the guild. Finally I looked, realized she wasn't there, and realized that she had been dragged. Sort of funny. Not that big a deal. Then it happened again, to a friend I was dragging to a safe depart spot; she did not want to go to the clerics, but got dragged there anyway by someone else.

So... My advice is this - if you see a dead person, and someone standing next to them, assume maybe they have help, and that your assistance would be greatly appreciated by a corpse without a buddy. :D We're talking - 1 second in the room, she got dragged away. I wasn't dilly-dallying. Or, ask the dead person if they need help.

Thanks. No anger here, just mild amusement at the eager helpers of Zoluren!
