Get rid of this. It has no business in the game.

The camera rotating around.
There is never a reason to remove interface control from the player.

I have always hated the way the camera angle changes and begins to revolve when you die, forcing you to re-adjust it to stop the spinning and stop staring at the top of your head. Even when farming I never use the /resign command because I'd rather map back and spend time walking to the portal than to be constantly fiddling with the camera.

I always have to spin my character around when the shrines bring me back. At least spin it from the the other angle or something.

I think It (the rotation upon death) is a anti-bot measure, since it sabotages a neat navigation upon death. This removes "landmarks" from the bots. Thats why they use target closest ally, etc.
If it was removed, Bots would swarm. Since the hindrance for navigation would be gone.
Not that it has stopped the current bots that has adapted to the environment.

/signed a thousand times. I hate that annoying, pointless game mechanic.
@Roupe: blocking asian accounts from accessing the rest of the servers has proven highly effective in cutting off gold farmers.

I think Roupe has a point. Getting any note on being killed and rezed would just mean auto-running to the next teleport/post or whatever they have in mind. That doesn't mean it's gonna affect players who use follow bots or scripts that pick up next locations automatically (yellow portal = yellow quarry)
Zahr - Even with the asian servers blocked off, we still have other bots to contend with. Until the penalties get overhauled and include some real consequences, punks will still play away from their keyboards thinking they got a free ride coming.

Every single bot, gold selling spammer, bulk tome seller, etc, vanished. Completely.
Then they let the asians back when the one or two actual players there whined, and the bots and gold sellers immediately reappeared.

/signed, gets annoying when you're in one of those situations where you might res with aggro and have to run away.

Furthermore it is not affecting bots. As such any (already unfounded) argument of "its to reduce bots" is irrelevant. I'll tell you what it is affecting, real players.

Since the window is showing the direction that's forward.
If the auto rotation wouldn't exist -the window view of what was front would be "static" and predictable. It would then be even simpler to make a bot script. and bots could then use the manual keys for movement and have it use the fast keys to move forward, left, etc.
Bots have existed before internet.
