Afk is always a risk. Anywhere. I hope you didn't drop anything but you shoulda stripped.
Luring is for slime balls but there's a lot of them in Mir now. Used to be just a few.
My view is that if you think pvp is important, you set up yr pc sort connection study game mechanics so you always have an advantage. No one bangs on about pvp unless they think they are going to win most of the time. (Speed kills) They are usually faster than most.
Making other players die by sneaking about in the hope you get a drop is a lot like mugging oaps when they collected their pension.
Not going afk for long is the only answer. Log out
