Forgotten Tales

OOPS! I clicked on it and just about spit coffee all over monitor!

Even that didn't kill him off

I remember, years back, there were some posts on the forum about "hit contracts" or "assassinations"...
Can't remember if they were in off-topic or clans, but it seems they have since been deleted....

Basically, it started as Player A offering services to kill any player in the game for a fee.... some others offered to hire him, and others still decided to mimic him and offer the same service (gold was much harder to obtain back then).

There was one person (I forget who exactly) who kept trying to hire someone to assassinate the blacksmith, due to excessive crafting failures...
I thought it was funny too bad it never worked

I remember that. Was it the Knights Society, or am I mixing them up with what you're saying?

No, that incident was separate...
The one I'm talking about involved "private, freelance contractors". Most were unclanned too, I think. I forget who the player was that started the idea (IIRC, he wasn't known as a "nice guy" by many).
Just solo players looking for gold, in a time when gold meant a little more than it does now.

I would like to know more about that "separate" incident.

We need that a "Knight's Society" I mean - for Knights without a Clan ... so I started this:

The Code of Chivalry for Knights without a Clan

The Knights Society does exist already... and they were intended to be along these lines.
Rumours persist that they still are around.....
