I wish to clarify the purpose and responsibilities of all GUL.
It is our hallmark to fight fair, 1v1, and to never smack talk, res kill, etc..
However, we don’t run a traveling fight club either.
Your duty as a Guardian is to fight honorably against the hapless heathens that speckle Sosaria. These adventurers are often ignorant about our laws, and are always engaged in their own business which will involve hunting the lich, red mages, or hunting in the surrounding areas without the requisite bandanna.
Under no circumstances do GUL-hunters fit into this category.
You are under absolutely no obligation to ‘duel’ anyone while on duty.
While we fight honorably against hapless heathens, we do not tolerate interruption from GUL hunters that want to disrupt our rounds so that they can get a little free 1v1 on their terms.
So to be clear; as a Guardian you are to follow the guild code of ethics and honor when engaging those adventurers who venture too close to the Undead Lords, or attack them outright. But, you are under no such obligation when faced with those that are out looking for you, the Guardian.
On a final note: killing the newly resurrected is against GUL policy in most circumstances, but be clear on this point; A newly resurrected individual that hops your gate and follows you home should be killed, especially if your intent is to regroup and make plans.
Looting during battle or too soon is also grounds for res killing as is smack talking.
I hope this has made clear GUL policy on the matter.
PS. The Elders are restructuring part of the guild to better serve us in this new UO. Please be patient during this transition as I believe it will be worth it.
