Using a pickaxe against an energy sword isn't going to do your life expectancy any favours. Not when combined with a complete lack of skill.

True, but a fancy pickaxe vs an energy sword could work just fine in this setting after people going on about how a Lightsabre won't be able to cut through other people's weapons in this game. (weapon strength: Popularity Power, weaponized)
Mr. Minecraft didn't come pre-packaged with swordsmanship they never knew in civilian life for free anyways, how is he going to learn on the job if we just kill them because he didn't app a combat monster?
He's doing a lot better than Meorin was five minutes ago, at the very least. We're not all just leaving her to bleed to deaths on the streets for being an apparent combat failure are we?

Yes, but Moerin's player is still here, and didn't leave upon receiving simple and constructive criticism, something he has done before.

I got a thing against 'Player left? Let's just KILL them!' though. It just seems kinda meanspirited.
I've seen people give notice for non drama RL interruption reasons elsewhere, only to have their characters killed off for no purpose but spite, or because 'hey! free chance to playerkill to show how badass this other character is!'.
Guy left, apparently under circumstances that was less than pleasant for some. Going 'let's break his toys! THAT will show them!' was the sort mindset thing I was under the impression was why you left TVtropes forums and started fresh somewhere else.
If he's ever allowed back, he's got something waiting for him. If he's banned, then why bother killing them?
EDIT: I don't track the apparently drama packed land of the chat. Mostly because I wouldn't even be at the keyboard most of the time. Though I don't really see the appeal of checking in since most of my ignorance of current events tends to be along the lines of "Something blew up in the chat".
Even if they called you all bag of dicks or something, I'm still against Character Execution as the first go-to option of absent players. I know Im new and I'm not trying to tell people what to do, but that's my outlook.
If you want them hurt, and we can't pretend hard enough in our pretend game Mr. Mincraft quietly left the scene, then just have Elpizo field goal the guy in the nuts through a window or something.
Not like killing them will make anybody care about the fight harder, after all. But a kick to the groin is always funny.

Yeah... you seem to have missed that this is being suggested because he quit on flimsy pretenses and has become something of an obstacle.
Last time he quit, he called everyone an asshole or becoming one. This time, he just deleted his account because people said no to one idea. Mid fight. Flank doesn't want to pretend he was just never there, so...

I should hasten to add that he didn't kill Ciaran; rather, it's more a "whoops, you're unconscious!" dealie. Even with ~dark energy~ and a hand made out of metal, I imagine that what amounts to a slap isn't going to kill you.
The reasons why I didn't go "Ciaran dies!" is simple: 1) it'd be a pretty dickish thing to do, and 2) it allows an avenue for GCR to come back, if he ever does.
I will fully admit that I should've made that much clearer, but I didn't want to control GCR's character (even if he is no longer present) and so I left the results vague (that, and I've never been a fan of autohitting, even if it would supposedly be "justified" in a case like this). I apologise for any confusion!

You did fine Flanker. I'm more arguing a concept/what was suggested happens from here, than how you tried to field the sudden player vacuum yourself.

I had the exact same reaction Moe.
Actually no mine was worse. "Enkidu's length was infinite, unlike its hardness."
Me: That's what she said.
Wait wait I got another one!
"If you get in my way you will have to face Enkidu. And THIS is not Enkidu." *walks off*
*walks back in* Enkidu is my penis.

And just like that, Knight stopped being an emo. Sorry, Laserface. But it had to be done.

No worries. Come Season 2, and Nicholas will take Knight's spot of Mr. Brooding.

I do have the Hug Goddess as one of the pivotal characters, so I can just have her descend whenever the emoness gets too bad.

And so Knight used his 'used to be a emo-er emo than you' card to snap everyone out of their depression. XD
