Subject: Re: Clarification on Stealing


Hi Ziltus!!

Stealing is when you attack someone else's target which they are currently
fighting is it?
If i see one first and nuke it before anyone else touches it...it's not
considered
stealing?Just need to clarify...i'm not that high lvl yet and i'm only a
magician
but i think we're supposed to be the next nukers after wiz. Not too sure
though.
I never interrupt someone's battle unless it looks like they really need
help so
i guess it's ok hmmmm....

BTW...

"So if the newcomers come across this kinda CB players, it's wiser
to move on to another camp, coz it's only waste of time to stay there (u
are helpnig him to kill only)."

This CB is CrushBone right? *Innocent look* LOL
