Zone hugging/hopping

If you leave them to their own designs, sooner or later they will leave the zoneline, and maybe even run into you. I get to kill most zonehuggers like that.

Not to mention zone hopping most often occurs when there's two or more enemy players standing on the other side crowding around a single waiting for his immunity to wear off.  Yea, lets force that guy into combat with you, so that you and your two, three, or four buddies can all take his infamy yea!

I too find zone jumping very annoying, because after all that searching it can be very annoying that the only person you've found is impossible to kill because they're crossing back and forth over a zoneline.

<p>Here's a solution that's been put in the game since the beginning: places other than the zonelines. If you find someone in the middle of Antonica, away from all the zone lines, you should be able to kill them before they reach the nearest zone. If you aren't, then they must be on a horse or something fast that shows they would have won if they had fought because they are twinked enough to get a horse anyway and you should be thankful they ran away instead of killing you and taking fame/infamy and/or money.</p>
