I can guarantee my guild isn't doing this. We may Rp the whole mercenary thing, but we wouldn't drag aggro on ya. I'm very curious to know which guildis being accused of this.

Actually, I have heard of this happening. A couple people (who will remain nameless since I cannot confirm) have supposedly been going around PR doing this exact thing.

Either way, it's quite silly and in very poor taste, rp or not.

Yes indeedy, which is why I asked if stanleyz had actually witnessed/experienced it or was just "quoting a friend".

At least stanleyz has had the decency to not name names without 100% certainty. Well done on that stanleyz.

As Kostika said The Samsara RP as mercenaries and do ask for money for rez but I have NEVER seen or heard of them deliberately getting someone killed. I've even seen some of them rez for free! Nearly died from the shock! lol

If you have proof then please post it, otherwise let's not get into a flame war over a rumour. :)

Most-definitely OOC:

This is an actual log from a Samsara guild meeting:

Kostika: Ok, you can put your pants back on and get off my knee now Jyudas.
Kostika: So let's hear how this months fund-raising went, Indrilad?
Indrilad: Well I got 50k out of noobs, offering to take them back to the starter island and leading them to Dyron instead.
Kostika: Great they'll never notice the difference but that isn't much dapper. Next!
Jool: I offered to sell solutions to the bootcamp tests to our latest recruits but gave them some of my poetry instead. Gained 500k, lost 3 recruits.
Rashan: I'll double that if you get rid of another 3.
Kostika: Shut it big nose! How much did you raise?
Rashan: Er, millions but I kind of spent it on heavy armour.
Kostika: But you MAKE heavy armour!
Rashan: Doh! Let me trawl the forums for ideas. While we hear the rest.
Mioette: I won 2nd prize in a beauty contest and collected 10 dapper!
Kostika: *sigh*
Jyudas: I saved loads as I couldn't find any mats to spend it on. Here's 1 million dapper!
Kostika: Great that will just about cover your sauna membership and guest passes. Pinsao?
Pinsao: I sold 20 axes with stats of 100/100 but a GM told me that wasn't possible due to rounding 'features' and the weapons were all deleted.
Kostika: *sob* I'll never be able to afford that throne for the guildhall.
Swee: I won a few million in duels but spent it all on teleporter tickets.
Kostika: how the?
Swee: Well you can't expect me to walk all the way from Pyr stables to the trainers.
Kostiak: Give me strength!
Rashan: WAIT! I've got it - let's drag aggro onto people in the PR and charge them for a rez. I read it on the forums, it's a GREAT idea!
Kostika: Right that's it, I've had it with you. Pull down your pants and bend over my knee.
Jyudas: Aw, I wanted another go :'(

Apologies to my guildmates for the above :) The aggro-drag/rez scam is out of order and we'd never do it.

Lol, this actually made me laugh out loud, sitting and reading it in a packed airport lounge. Got weird stares but was worth it. Nice post mate :)
