Is there any way to set it so that when a player logs in, all their other characters tied to that account get the Away PK flag? I'm not saying that people who bounce between alts should really be penalized, but I feel that in some cases there needs to be some kind of accountability. This would also help prevent people from logging in with their assortment of characters occasionally just to keep them PK-viable.

I'm not really sure this would be a good idea. Sometimes people log in to other characters to check their mail and that might flag a character they are currently playing with the away pkflag. If you notice someone in particular abusing the mechanic it might be a better idea to point it out so we can deal with it on a case by case basis.

That's a good point, I hadn't thought about reading mails. I was hoping to find some way to automate it instead of requiring direct imm involvement.

Maybe when the account mechanic lets you read the mail on all accounts.

I think I agree with Verb, if he's saying what I think he's saying. It'd be nice to be able to read mail on any one of your alts no matter which pc you have logged in at the time. Sometimes you want to check on mail but don't want to log that alt in for whatever reason but you also don't want to ignore the mail you have waiting on it.

If that made any sense at all.
