I think it's something that needs to be discussed ooc with people. Mostly cause it can affect someone else's character to the point they stop enjoying their character. Like if someone's character is close to the character that gets killed off for a character to just ignore that fact and magically not be affected. So just throwing that on someone out of the blue is kind of bad form. You should at least have the courtesy to discuss with them how killing your character would affect them. Having a spouse off tends to absolutely destroy characters, and that may not be a character they want to have to play.Â
The other thing is how you plan to kill your character. Especially if you plan on having a player character do the deed. Like S'imba nearly killed a few characters. Killed R'elend once which was more on me for getting violent, and beating him to death. (Thank god the roll on the rez was a win.) Though that would be a situation I couldn't feel bad about cause S'imba was going over the top with his force. Though the one that was more of a bad thing was having a friendly spar though the other character was treating it like S'imba was packing the punches of the Soviet from rocky 4 despite the guy being twice as big as S'imba. Though he didn't end up dying the close call still ended up with S'imba getting more than a few bounties on his head by player characters for it. That's more the situation that some people may get unhappy about. Forcing a character to use lethal force when their character is trying to do the opposite can upset some people when their character is suddenly a killer out of the blue. I was ok with both those scenarios but there are others that may not be as open to that sort of thing.
Basically if someone plans to kill a character off, like a lot of rp stuff discuss things ooc with people so you don't put someone in a situation they can no longer enjoy their character.
