Make packs drop automatically when you die to monsters.

Seriously I think packs should drop automatically. This trend of logging off to have your pack unreachable is from an IC standpoint absurdly silly. Especially well when after you die people where angry at you for other events. I think packs should return to how they previously where before. It also has this absurd thing of players permaing their characters and all of their belongings out of reach (Even more silly.]

I can safely say packs won't be going back to the way they were. You are more than welcome to request a player who has ended their PC to log on so you can yank their packs. You are also welcome to talk to a DM if you have a legitimate reason to yank the pack of a dead PC you have a beef with.

But also understand that dead PCs in the wilds is something of a delicate balance between IC and OOC convenience. Sometimes people die and ran out of time to deal with the consequences, it would be silly to then have you arch nemesis come along and allow them to dry loot you or slit your throat simply because a corpse placeable was left in the world when you had to go to work or go to bed for the evening.

In every scenario in which you have pointed out a problem it could be resolved by talking to the player the corpse belongs to or a DM which is frankly a far better system.
