It's not a question of freedom to grief other players, because that's what MPKing is. Griefing.Definitely not an exploit. It was players making use of the freedom the world provided them. Freedom is more entertaining than being on rails. I'm not advocating MPKing anyone but my opinion of it is slightly different. Fighting off MPK attempts were some of the most exciting HNM fights I remember. Exciting = fun.
I wasn't exactly thrilled when MPK attempts succeeded but i've seen some pretty epic MPK's in my time and some of them were actually hilarious (guy brought the CoP robot NM down to first floor in Qufim tower when 8 full lvl 25 parties were fighting for mobs on a packed night and it was a massacre).
No matter how much it might have sucked if you got MPKed at a time when you werent interested in getting MPKed, i'd prefer the game provided the freedom for this (as well as positive things) to happen spontaneously than to put us on a set path we cannot stray from.
If you want my HNM spawn, bring it on, I'll pvp you for it. Keep the monster trains in XI.
