That is the downside (or rather: the interesting part) of a game designed for real open pvp.
If it is of any comfort to you - it gets much better when you gain higher levels, claned and party more...guess its much too risky for high-leveled reds to go up against someone who might actually beat them or have some support around - and risk dropping their valuable equipment ;)

Nevertheless, the " I am a Bot killer - you are a bot so I pk´ed you" phrase is a simple and often used -although unnecessary- lie.

"You needed killing!" is perfectly acceptable in L2 terms as well.... :P

ehh, it happens. best thing to do about it is move on. I've been pked many times at my lower levels. Its lame, yes, but posting does nothing. If you want a real convo in threads go to l2blah.com ... cant promise that they'll be as "nice" tho :p

[Epi0n]

people just go on pk sprees and say that they are "bot killers"

the best when they say "plz dont kill me I kill bots"
I usuallly hear that in an angry PM after I gave them a free port to floran ;D

I always attack reds unless they are friend/clan mate/alliance mate, then I'll help them get to white again.

P.S. whenever you see a red, either fight or run dont talk or waste time -hesitation = you are dead.

At level 26, try hunting at the Wastelands, Partisan Hideaway, or Execution Grounds. There are usually less reds there. If you are hunting right near Dion, you will get pked by a red.
You can also try Abandoned Camp if you need some place a little easier. There used to be a lot of reds there, but it is not as bad these days.
Bottom line is to find some place else to hunt when you realize there are reds around. The more mad you get and the more you shout, the happier they are.

alright guys thx a lot

I'll just point out that sometimes it's worth your effort to politely PM them a moment after they've done their deed and explain you're an actual player. Some folks, although not many, may offer you some form of compensation if they've wrongly killed you.

At level seven, it seems my life was only worth 10k. Figures....

If someone's red in newbie area, they're probably a griefer. Once you get past level 40, the usually the only reds you see are the ones at war.

I pm'd KingNemo, who said you HAD to be botting because you force logged. !!!! I then mocked him in shout for his ignorance in thinking the only way to force log is to use scripts. Idiot...
