Not really. We get better, but so does the creatures. When you hit level 20 or something, go back in Blackburrow and see if they still stun you :-)

Agreed. We should have a stun attack. Some people are discussing other options, like a grab attack or something like that.

This is an offense, and (according to Everquest Rules) should not be tolerated. Use /report and then /petition.

Blackburrow have a tendency to make corpses dissapear. I know lots of people who lost their corpes in BB due to this. They have /petition for it, but now response. Then a few days later, their corpes are suddenly found at the entrance of BB. My guess is that GM's regularly scoops up all corpses and dumps them at the entrace. Apparently corpses dissapears inside walls and other weird things.
Anyway, use the /corpse command if you know you are close to your corpse. That command will summon your corpse to your feet, if you are close enough.

He most certainly played a silly joke on you. Like this:
/em steals an item from YOU!
A good respons to this (old and boring joke) is:
/em quickly grabs xxx's thieving arm and with a loud *snap*, breaks it...
Or something.
