Offered to report tamer for a murder count in Trammel

I wouldn't have even if the person weren't a friend, but it's beyond concerning to me that blues can get a count when they weren't doing anything wrong. My friend was on a tamer, I was on a sampire, and I was a screen away when a trio of paras killed me. Then I had the option, "Do you want to report _______ as a murderer?"

Characters weren't guilded, not partied. Never saw anything like this before.

I've gotten this before too, I assume it has something to do with the flagging system. I turned a blue red, and he asked me how he got a count when he didn't attack me or heal anyone. We did pvp earlier, that's why I assumed it had something to do with the flagging system.

They had an issue early on with certain area damage specials hitting other people's pets and doing actual damage. Maybe instead of fixing that completely they just put a bandaid on it and rigged it. Maybe that area damage actually 'hits' the pets still, as well as your character, but they have coded it to where it does not do any actual damage but that is why it flagged???

That's about the only reason I could think of...

Doesn't UO have a long history of fixing Bug A causing older (but fixed) Bug B to become unfixed? I seem to remember that there were a couple bugs about a decade ago, where we went a year or more where they'd fix one, which would break the other, and vice versa, through several fix cycles before they figured out that the bug was with a third system they didn't realize affected the other two.

I have this problem when I do treasure maps with my friends in fel. I will summon a reaper and every once in a while it will attack them for absolutely no reason, then flag me and make me gray.

Changing the subject only slightly, can I still get reported for leaving poisoned food or trapped boxes lying around?

Not in Trammel. They can take it to Fel and use it though.
I legit got a count like that once in Tram. Was training poison, put a fish steak on the ground dude at it, died and counted me. When did they make it to where that can't happen?

It's been a long time since I tested it, like years and years. Maybe it is my memory failing me. Perhaps I should try it again.

and it counted the poisoning toon, correct? I can remember someone asking a blue to poison 100 apples and the person went to tram wbb putting apples all over so the 'helpful' blue turned DEEEEEP red without knowing what they did.

That is old school stuff. Always think of it if you saw a apples in the ground irl would you eat it.

What happens if you become red while in tram they still kick you to a randomly shine in Fel?

I was bored so figured I would break out my poisoner and see if it still works. Sadly it doesn't. Tried it with apples and fish steaks. He is 90 skill, using greater and got the successful message. Eating the food (with both the Poisoner and the Victim) just got the normal eating messages... :sad4:
