Well, Bounty Hunter is always a no-no...

[Mr Horse72]

No Pking In The Red Portal In Clan Wars, No Stakes At Duel Arena...

[Sir Ewoksrule91]

If you have the possibility of taking something of someone else's it is pking. So bounty hunter, pking worlds, and unsafe clan wars are but safe clan wars, castle wars, and duel arena are not. Personally I think staking is fine since you only can take or lose what ever the other person wants to. Much more honorable than other pking.

Well, my personal opinion on matters...

Bounty Hunter - Pretty much exclusive PVP for the purpose of fighting other players to make profit from their items. Thats a no

Red Portal Clan Wars - This one is a bit more gray... The free-for-all essentially amounts to bounty hunter. But a organized sanctioned war that took place in red, that one would be one would be permitted.

Staked Duels and Clan wars - Permitted, in the end its an honourable stake put up between players. No loss is taking place that the other player did not agree too. Both players know the opponent they are going to fight.

PVP Worlds - I'm not forming a definative opinion on it. Right now its a no, but that might change as the servers stablize and become more stable.

Since a lot of these cases depend on the reason and purpose of the engagement and the act.

I'll say the same thing that I'm pushing to have added to the code.

"The Sword of a Jedi exists to protect. a Jedi will always uphold the ideals of Chivalry and Honour .... the Jedi at creation, and continue, to oppose the ideal of Random Player Killing (RPKing). The diliberate targeting of random or weaker players for greed, bloodlust, hate, and vanity is an act of dishonour, no Jedi should ever lower themselves to it..."

Ahem...I quote from the Book of Mel:

One must examine the motives of player-killing, which involve the gain of money, items, and/or stake winnings. When such things are available, or become the consequence of fighting in-game, along with two willing factions of an impartial bloodsport without just cause, the action itself is called player-killing.

ok mostly im just checking on staking cause i do it sometimes... never really done any of the rest of it other than bounty hunter once... and it was boring everyone ran away as they were dying so what is the point...
