Avendell is a city of trade and commerce, it is a place where all factions are welcome and violence of any kind is strictly forbidden. Any mortal who interferes with the homage being paid to the Gods by the trading shall endure the wrath of the Gods.

Avendell holds a special place in Our heart, as it is the 'home away from home' for so many bards, and a place where ideas are exchanged. Our protection is upon this city, and those who would challenge its neutrality will answer to Us.

Personally, I make any enemy character I can, pay a toll upon entering Avendell. You want to do commerce? Then give me some gems or whatnot, thats commerce too right?

Avendell seems awefully close to NS for it to be able to house enemy factions unmolested (being on the same server that is). Of course it's also just one transition from the enemy as well.
One issue I'd like to raise, although you probably already thought of it; peopel bound in avendall can easily attack LA, and LA noobs, because they are able to stay in avendall easy enough. I've seen this happen now by quite a few characters.
Outside of Avendell, they're fair game. If an Alliance messenger sees hostiles approaching, they should be able to outrun them and alert the guards... and of course, you can always use shout.
I agree that the proximity of Avendell to Neversummer is something to be concerned about, but there are ways to guard the approaches that don't involve making Avendell a KOS zone. I can think of two zones into the city; any attack HAS to come through one of them. Both of them have faction guards. Add some sufficiently powerful players, and you should be able to stifle an attack.
excellent. im assuming it means coming from the yuan-ti areas above okie north town, which may or may not be useful. i should have thought before i contructed my post, a better one would have been: any fast routes
however, underdark....now that is a good idea, just need to find an opening near avendell
maybe its an idea to make Arvandell the only non PvP area on the server?
I don’t really see much point in intelligence anyway, even at very high levels of intelligence, wizards still don’t realize it would have been smarter to be a sorcerer.

I agree with this. Joran, could this be possible, please? I'd be willing to bet a paycheck that it's a lot easier to change a script than it is to alter human nature.
meh, i say leave it alone, its a good way for players to anger the gods and then get smoted by them!
p1-" argh, im going to kill you in avendell!"
p2- " oh no! (insert god here) save me!"
p1-" haha pray all you want im still going to..."
(insert god here)-" ARRRHG!! YOU HAVE ANGERED ME!!!"
*smites p1 and gives his hackmaster 5000 (a.k.a. longsword +2) to p2*
p1-"Oh the horror! I shall never kill in avendell again!"

there is a way from crossroads to Avendell without even changing servers
yes you can stay in LA territory
but because i dont want any of you filthy slimey spineless SL, MA. NC, AO or Circle people in our land Im not going to tell you
if you wish to explore then just be prepared to die if an LA member see's you
and LA, we COULD always block entry into Avendell from silver road
kill any enemy that tries to enter
like the gods said, outside Avendell is fair game
