A room full of people on low hitpoints and possibly energy, exhausted mentally at the least from the fear of death and finally lowering their guard to create openings that were not present before...

Nope, can't imagine why someone would pick that venue for some axe murder. I mean, it's tragic and stuff, but if you are evenly matched with the people up there or even just have a teleport crystal, it's a damn easy way to assassinate someone.

Then on the other hand doing it in public is also a surefire way to have your name and face known and plastered everywhere for a lynching. Pros and cons.

If you're a mental case whose only interest is killing and you can't think of the repercussions then yeah, I can understand why it might be a tempting venue for it. Otherwise though, like you said, I think the cons greatly outweigh the pros. Getting caught was dangerous, especially when you're in a room full of the strongest players in the game.

also i like how PKing in SAO-RPG is cruise control for character development. its top lols

I can agree with that, I personally wouldn't start a career in murder where the most influential people are.

I'd personally put on a mask and full-body covering equipment with maybe some padding to hide my body shape. Unless you are tracking them by name then you wouldn't be able to see who they are unless they willingly joined your party.

And yeah, it's pretty cool to watch~!
