(I've committed the cardinal sin of cross-posting, but I thought I might get a more helpful - albeit more derogatory - answer here.
I'm an experienced MMO player, but I'm completely new to Rift.
I was headed to the inn at Argent Glade last night and suddenly realized I was in a Raid group of some kind. (I had not clicked a "Join Public Groups" button - or whatever the specific name of that button is.) By the time I reached the Inn - a matter of a minute or two - I had received the "First Blood" achievement for getting my first PvP kill.
I thought that I had correctly toggled the option that would warn me before I became flagged for PvP, so this really surprised me. I am a true care bear, with zero interest in PvP. None. Nada. I avoid it like the plague.
So I have a couple of questions:
1. What probably happened last night? Again, I'm a complete newb and so I have no clue how I can suddenly be grouped into a raid and then getting a PvP achievement - in a PvE zone on a PvE server. It's entirely possible I did something wrong. I'd just like to know what it was.
2. Is there anything I need to change in my settings, or something else I need to do to avoid accidental PvP in the future?
Thanks much.
