This policy has been decided on by the Watchers to be in place immediately for all clans across the board.
Policy- Clan members are to not return eq from a kill for ANY reason in ANY situation.
There are inherent abuses which the RP staff has realized from such a practice. And for so this is adopted, with no wiggle room for interpretation.
If you want a person to have a chance to get the eq back you leave in in the corpse and walk away without broadcasting where the corpse is. You don't spam loot and use the get all corpse command. And you definately don't take it from the corpse and store it in a safe place. You leave it where it is.
Master weapons should be turned in for rewards. Clan eq should be traded in for equivalent common eq.
Clan members who return eq will be penalized immediately. This penalty can be as high as declanning.
Clan immortals will be posting shortly in your clan forums. Any questions should be directed to that post within the clan forum.
