I really do think PKing violates the spirit of the game

Have you never seen the original "Dawn of the Dead"? What brought the mall down and killed the majority of the protagonists weren't the zombies, it was other survivors. A roving biker gang looking for supplies assaulted the mall and began to loot it, killing the survivors who had decided to squat in the mall to try and ride out the apocalypse.

Those bikers? They are your PKers in Urban Dead.

You'll notice I commented on that. Read my next post, In any all out apolcalypse, the human element will naturally be the most deadly but...:

The problem is that this game isn't built to handle PKing...there's no way to avoid it except to remain hidden (thats why Padre never stays in one place for more than a day...and never sleeps in populated buildings, i've only been PK'd twice ;D)

If there was a way to "Guard" certain buildings your group had complete control over, or perhaps to track people (that would work to the PKers advantage as well), they wouldn't have such a godawsome advantage over the surivor population.

Fact of the matter is, group that "live" in a location get completely sledgehammered by PKers...most of whom don't live for the story, but simply want to piss X faction off.
