Must be bored as heck. Or I am very entertaining.
I'm not mad at the reds; I'm annoyed I couldn't call the guards on them. I would have loved to see them guard whacked. I don't have my pets guard me anymore, so come at me reds!
Also, if there were ogre lords or wild greater dragons in a blue zone, they would get guard whacked. Why should reds be any different?
If you are actually in the guard zone they can't attack you without getting guard whacked. What is probably happening is you are using a CHIV pet which casts holy light (area spell) which then flags you and the pet. All you need to do is use a pet that doesn't use any area spells. I was using my CB/Disco triton and had no issues flagging reds that came around.
My mule was using an untrained fire beetle which doesn't cast area spells. Apparently it is a bug (won't go into too much detail).
I did find the loot was a bit better in Felucca (more legendaries) and haven't been able to get any splinter weps in Tram.

I think they were complaining about a game system not working correctly not about being attacked
I'd like to know more details because seems kind of strange to me they came here to complain about it and then vaguely refer to some bug that allows reds to attack a fire beetle in town to flag them. I'd like to know what the bug is because I still think it might be user error which we've seen here time and time again. If it's a legit bug ok... but they can still use something other than a fire beetle. I think this one falls into the "complaining to complain" category.
But they said they will adjust: " I don't have my pets guard me anymore, so come at me reds! "
My apologies if it came across that I was complaining about reds in Fel. I honestly have no problem with reds or being killed in Fel. My miner gets killed all the time in Fel and I just shrug it off because I understand that this is a risk of mining in Fel. When I go to an IDOC in Fel and get killed in a second, I laugh because I totally suck at PvP.
Delucia, Fel is a zone where you can mine in a guard zone. You just have to make the run from the Passage, thru the caves. Takes about 20 seconds or so.

As for being killed in a guard zone with a pet guarding me (the real issue), I was told that this was a pet bug exploit when I explained the circumstances to a vet with a much better understanding of these kinds of things than me. It was my first time experiencing it, so I was just a little shocked/annoyed. Didn't mean to stir up a hornet's nest.
Being in the GZ might protect you from most PKs. I'll still get ya though. That being said, I typically won't if you aren't AFK. Though if I see you mining, I assume you are AFK.
And can take a break to do some escorting for Compassion!
@Jaida
I say a lot of bad things about greater dragons pretty much all the time ...
If your pet has any sort of AOE like goo, holy light from chiv ect, it will hit the red if they are standing near. When that happens you will turn grey to the red and he can attack freely.
That's what I mentioned earlier but the OP said that there was some bug using a 1 slot fire beetle on their crafter. They never went into the actual bug though so not sure.
Yes
