The rule of thumb is that I'll leave you alone if you make me laugh. I felt bad because I laughed after seeing the guild tag, and had inadvertently broken one of my rules.
what i said to Mavfin is a different circumstance altogether.
personally, i don't know what your problem with me is. i stopped posting at the amazon basin because of this kind of attitude. shall i do the same for the lounge?

No need to get upset. Tal is pointing out an obvious inconsistency in your statements. You stated:
1. Red = dead
2. UNLESS they have a clever name or guild tag
AND:
Quote:Should I leave that lvl 51 paladin alone that is taking my Sungrass and Ghost Mushrooms in the hinterlands? I think not.
Perhaps you thought I was farming in Ashenvale and killing lvl 20s for grins?
The above implies that killing lowbies while farming herbs in Ashenvale wasn't something you would do, when according to your rules it clearly is something you would do (whether or not you've actually done it). It's not at all a different circumstance, as your rules do not allow for circumstance to affect them at all. The only variable is your reaction to a clever name.
According to your rules, killing level 20s for grins is perfectly acceptable -- in fact required if you happen to encounter them (which by this thread you are by no means unique in viewing things this way, that's not the issue).
This is the inconsistency. In a thread about your personal rules of PvP, I think it's totally relevant to get an explanation for such an inconsistency.
If the implication that has been drawn is incorrect (i.e. you DON'T think it would be wrong to kill lowbies in Ashenvale), then what were you trying to say to Mav?
