PK games?

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.diablo2 (More info?)

I've always played solo on b.net, by creating passworded games. If I
create a game with no password, then anyone can join if they meet the
game requirments, right? And are any players within a game able to PK
each other? How do I create multiplayer games, without letting people
kill eachother? Or am I just stuck risking getting PK'ed?

Thanks

On ladder I find Pkers very rare occurence and often beat
them as much as they beat me but they always have
element of surprise.I think some follow a code and only
PK each person once but i rarely see that happen.I
remeber an assassin trying to kick my pally in chaos
sanctuary and when she failed to get anywhere had the
cheek to ask if she could join the party.

Well here's the deal, I'm a necro, and a lot of my attack is with my
merc and my fire golem. I'm assuming the AI is stupid and will NOT
attack any other player unless that player hit's me first, and maybe not
even then. So right off the bat, I'm at a disavantage, right?

Or even worse, lets say I find a another player I trust, and he's a barb
or something, and he tanks, while I sit back shooting my bone spirit.
What if I accedentally cast a bone spirit on my fellow partyer? I think
that is a likely scenareo, especially in a battle with more than 10
enemies sourounding the barb character, and I'm standing back just
firing away the bone spirits.

There's got to be some way aroung that. Like players can join a party or
something and people in a party can't attack each other.

So then, my question is, if someone joins my game, and they DON'T want
to join a party (if such a thing exists), can I then kick them out of
the game? Is there any way to ban players from a game?

I don't think your attacks will be able to affect another player
unless you have hostiled them.

You can create a game that's password protected, so only those "in the
know" can join.

i have recently started playing HC USWestL and all the talk about pkers i am
still yet to find one. i play in open games to be able to meet new people
and maybe make a freind. all i do is not tell them where i am and talk to
them for a while and if they figger out where i am i just go back to town
and wait for them to leave
Having said that i have had a couple of nice people one gave me a free rush
and another i played partyed with for about an hour. i have also had lots of
people give me free stuff for my little necro (great help thanks)
so its not all bad playing in open games you just have to be awhere of whos
in the game and what type of character they are

wait till you reach NM... Hell is no longer active do to PK.
it's pretty bad when i can spot a PK on every NM game. i just sit back and
watch ppl get killed.
