There's always the chance that the thief was lying to you to make you go away. What was his name? Perhaps someone here will recognize him as a randomer.

you werent highlighted
an 8k bounty? thats an odd number
would have only made sense if you had killed someone, and they wanted their eq back, which is what they would have been paying for with the bounty
if you are telling the truth about your uber-leet eq, then it wasnt worth 2k
let alone 8k
so the thief lied to you, and he may be in a clan, or an alt, or whatever
but good point brendas, all you brendas, yes, even you brenda
let us know what the randomer's name was here
it will probably be recognized
and in the future ...
<<"killed me while afk">>
should never leave your lips
go afk in an inn
or better yet, log off
safety! represent!

Im guessing this bountyhunter thief was Taloc?

-Wiggle-

You believed someone put a bounty on your head? Come now, brighten up. It was a randomer as the rest say. Although Taloc is hardly the only one, that kaev mofo is pretty notorious too j/j. There are like 7 others I or friends have noticed.
The following come readily to mind from what I highlighted randomer off a friends list although I've seen strome acting trashy with my own eyes.

Swelt
Guff
Strome

Pedro offers you his protection.

You were correct, it was Taloc.

I appreciate all your comments. Reading other threads about what can get you highlighted left me wondering if I inadvertently did something. I did find the whole situation odd and that's why I came here. I am glad I did because you all helped out.

As far as the AFK thing goes, I am always cautious. However, on that day I literally left my keyboard for 2 minutes because the dog needed to go out.

Thanks again for helping out.

p*nder (a or o or e, i forget) and mishap are randomers as well
running a lowb thru a room, not even stopping, instabashed and held, and dead
nice trashy triggers, that was a good night

What gets me is that most people will use crap characters they care nothing about to random with.

If they're going to random they should at least use their real chars, and accept real consequences for their actions.

Actually Rurh, I was randoming with huma shield with a limdam nobash druid partner last wipe and was stopped because we were "unkillable".

You, along with this Taloc/Elsara person, are exception.

Most people don't, unless it's the entire clan doing it.

Corey

For the neutral population that would be unkillable =)

rurh, be careful what you ask for. if people used their real chars for randoming, you would have level 30 characters that are equipped killing people, like corey said above. a lot less easy to evade their attacts.

Perhaps I can shed some light onto this situation.

I highlighted Addy as a randomer after receiving and responding to [url=http://students.washington.edu/bribera/images/10015.jpg]these emails[/url] from my younger brother.

In short, Addy stabbed and killed his low level druid, taking his prime and taunting him. He then attempted a second kill. This is coming from my brother (yes, a physical, blood relative!) whom I know and trust. He's new to the game, but he's not incompetent. He is sure about the name of the character who killed him, and therefore I (having some connections) took action.

P*nder and Mishap are not randomers; they were avenging Flynn's death. They are certainly not trash. End of story.

I tried randoming once. I got randomed and quit trying. :(

I am the terror that MUD's in the night...
