lerxst: typically the only permarooted mobs you will see are a few raid mobs scattered around in general. Permarooted mobs did behave differently than rooted mobs. Here is a post from 2003 on the subject.

caryatis: the point of a rule is to let people who do not like something, change that something easily. Yes your post about setting a low run speed works. But the point of the original post valid and the permarooted boolean already exists. It should be used appropriately instead of just getting lumped in with rooted.
