I agree with graaliholic, and most of the time it's even interesting to see what's going on in the arenas - i.e. friends killing or be killed, whatever. But this spam-killing, as it is, has occured twice in the last few days, and is indeed quite annoying - for the one involved, who's only option is to sign off and hope the pkers are gone when he comes back, as well for the players, who are disturbed in playing - either due to a flooded screen and hence reduced performance, or by not being able to shop and play the way they want to (i.e. /listen 0).
Also, it's quite easy to lure a newbie into one of the arenas, someone who has no real idea what ac and wc are and who can't tell who's powerfull and who isn't. Hence not every person in an arena is there to fight.
