I've only been in one situation where I've requested deportation before getting it. One other time it was due to aggression against the kingdom in question (most recent occurance). The other....oh, five or six times I've been deported have been for little to no reason. Be interesting to see if this actually is policed at all by the staff from this point on. You know, kind of like uninducting whole cabals for little to no reason is supposed to be.

I've been affected by this more than once, and one time was even IMM supported.

I approve of the QQ that follows when I banish a character.

Basically the way I thought banishment worked was that, to banish a person, they had to have certain requirements met. PK'ing a person in a tribunal for example, vs pk'ing a person not in the tribunal.

Like for example, if you PK a Talon, they could banish you but if you pk'd someone in zhenshi that wasn't a talon, I thought you had to have more than 1 charge to be banished. A high murder vs low murder type thing.

The thing is, my character killed a person in a city who was not part of the tribunal and the tribunal leader banished my character. I was under the impression that killing 1 person, not associated with the tribunal of said city, wouldn't equate to banishment.

I'm going out on a limb and assuming you were banished by the Midnight Council. In which case I did, and the person you killed was indeed in the cabal at the time, you probably just didn't know it.

Assumptions: Wrong.

Because I got curious and peeked at HELP BANISH. The bold selection was the part that caught my eye.

Quote:

[Laws help] banish

Banishment is an option that has been given to tribunals in each of the
governed cities in Shattered Kingdoms. Although the law systems of each
kingdom are completely automated when it comes to common crimes, there may
come a point at which a criminal has become so reviled that the tribunal
will need to step in and banish him or her from the kingdom forever. The
use of banish is discretionary by the tribunal leader but some conditions
that can lead to banishment include repeat offenders, causing a public
nuisance and performing attacks against the kingdom itself.

A banish mark can only be issued by a tribunal leader to an existing
criminal. This means that the victim must either be in prison already or
have a bounty listed with the magistrate for that city. A banished player
is hunted by the law enforcement NPCs of the kingdom they are banished from.
If caught, they'll be attacked and stunned. At this time, the offender will
be randomly teleported to a room outside of the kingdom.

Banishment never ends, regardless of how many times you are banished. The
only way to remove the mark is to have a tribunal leader remove it for you.
If you are banished from your native land, you also lose your citizenship.

Alanei - this means a person can only be banished when they have crimes in that kingdom. A banished person can serve their jail sentence but still banished from that kingdom, their outlaw poster will show no charges. That is when the stunning and teleporting starts happening.

Thank you for the info.

Since this thread caught my eye, I figured I'd see if there was an in-game help file on the subject, which there was. As it stands, I think it's actually pretty clear-
You have to be a criminal to be banished.

That means a tribunal leader needs to follow protocol and due process before a banishment should occur, hence why I posted it in case others had forgotten.

So far, I really like Alanei in-game and on the forums.

I'm flattered, ladyjennbo.

I'm not usually a forum-type person, I do more reading on them than posting, but when I find something to contribute..!
