Taunt doesn't always work.

And you ALWAYS hit when you swing, right? *coughs*
Heh. I'm not talking about missing a taunt, though. I'm talking about taunted foes still running off. When I HIT a foe, I always do damage. 
I will not rest until we have in-game throwable pies!
As someone who pretty much only plays scrappers,...
YOU GUYS ROCK.

We're working (or more precisely our wunder-programmer Martin) on a change to melee combat that will enable you to hit runners. No more angling just in front of the fleeing foe - yep - you can punch him from behind!
We hope to get this into Update 3, but it needs testing. But I thought you'd like to know.

Hallelujah!
This may be the best news I've heard ever.
Martin, please grab a new hotmail account, register with PayPal, and post the address. Then we can love you with money.
I thank you. Thank you all.
YAY! /em praise Martin and Statesman
Oh man!!! This alone makes issue 3 a must have!
It took me 6 months to learn how to fight runners 
You ruined 6 months of training

I think this is one case where we can stand having our training be obsolete. Besides, it might still come in handy for PvP.
Nice 
Of course - I can hit runners from behind already, being way uber (well - its Focus thats way uber, but I have Focus, so I get to be a little uber)
Will definitely remove some of the frustration I have had with my other toons though.
Awesome!
YES THANK YOU!!!!!

SWEET!!!! I hate runners and chasing em down.
That is awesome..... though I will say I'll miss the run by the mob, turn and cut them down. That has style. I think I'll get over it though
Would you believe that's the second best news I've read all day?
Time to pay even more attention to the "What's new on the Test Server" threads!
That is SOOO awsome. It was so lame to have to outjump them to hit them. Thank you statesman
