Thanuk, perhaps you should settle down. I was merely making a logical argument (very much in touch with reality) towards what you said. If you can't handle arguments then perhaps you should do something else than talk. As a helpful rule, don't say anything online that would get you beaten up offline...

Thanuk, if you head to some countries, you can buy kidnapped children to do with as you please. Does that make them replaceable property?

I wasn't saying otherwise; I was quite certain that they would be high level. But when was the last time any of you gave a newbie the chance to speak? The view from the top isn't the same as from the bottom. Just because your skills work perfectly at zoning level doesn't mean that newbies have to be...

Allycis, just a quick question. Did you read the post, or just the name of the poster before you made your flame?

Find other people who want to RP and group with them only. Trying to RP while you're grouping with 14 people that are quite unwilling to do so is futile in most cases. I assume you're willing to leave the groups of the powergamers for the company of roleplayers? I guess you'd have to, otherwise your...

Kept, Nazruth. And if you think that your planes never had malfunctions during their creation phase, you're probably quite gullible

No offense meant, of course.

The thing is though, the evils seem to explain their system every single time someone asks or complains about it. Todrael even wrote in his "guide to getting eq in handouts" that you should ask the leader before the zone how it's going to be split. If people ask the leaders and the leaders lie, well...

Normally I'd agree with you, Nilan, but these posts are all made for laughs, noone's serious (or at least I hope so, this is the impression I got from reading this post and the Gromikazer thread)

Seriously, people need to stop whining on the boards because they don't get handed equipment in zones. Maybe it's unfair, maybe it's not - who cares? The bottom line is that the leader of the group owns you for as long as you're in his or her group. Don't like how that leader runs things? Switch lea...

Feels great to finally see Forsberg back in hockey; I'm relieved (but none too surprised) to see that he hasn't lost his amazing skill. I'd say I hope to see Colorado vs. Toronto in the finals, and watch Sundin take home the Stanley Cup finally. But really though, as a Swede, you can basically just ...

Rogue sub-class. *wink*

As stated, Deathtraps are the bane of exploration. In most MUDs, as soon as someone dies in a deathtrap, everyone knows about it, and the only ones that suffer are the newbies. Like Cherzra said, either you have a sign that says "enter and die" in which case noone will ever enter, or you don't put t...

I think we all know what an Incubus is. Thing is, if you broaden your view of the word, how would you define it? A malevolent being that comes unbidden at night to haunt its victims, feeding upon them (in a physical or non-physical manner)? That is, in my opinion, a fair assemssment, although not a ...

My god, this is truly the home of the l337 d00ds. I never thought I would say this, but there is more maturity on the Duris boards than there is here. Congratulations on your Vaunted Sojourn Challenge, I'm sure you will be quite alone to enjoy it soon enough - don't expect any newbies. Not criticizi...

Actually, I more or less already speak German. As for your help, yeah you got bombed and you got angry and came to retaliate, before that you weren't in the war; the US citizens didn't want to bother, it wasn't until you were bombed that you agreed to what your president wanted to do - jumpstart the...

Diablo 2

You guys have MGS2 already? Hope I don't have to wait for long..

Kein means None

Granted, it -can- be done, but coding track to store every single room traversed by a player or mob, that would be horrendous..
Unfortunately, track is coded as efficiently as can be expected.

I'd say "speedwalk scripts" sounds pretty close to step-by-step tutorials to me

Ie, they show you how to get there, and when you're there, you will likely be able to use Kiryan's "zone guides" to get around.

It's been too long for me to remember if these things were possible or not, but it is my belief that they are not. GMud on the whole is a rather weak, but easy to use, client. On another note, I'd suggest getting JMC, it's got basically everything you need, and is only somewhat harder (only when you...

I think that sounds like a good idea, seeing as how all other prompts of this nature require a valid input to operate, and this one does not. It's rather.. volatile.

Did you even read my post? The problem is NOT that there are no ways to work around this, there are ways to work around most everything in this world, the problem is that people who aren't specifically prepared to deal with it will suffer. Maybe noone here remembers having any trouble like this at a...

After finally rolling the stats I wanted just now, I took a short time to think about what gender to chose, while talking to a friend. Well, I'm sure anyone who's played here knows what happens. I just wonder how this very short idle timeout has survived on a MUD that is.. well, almost a decade old?...

Couldn't the mobs in question just have been made !paralyze? Seems to me like that would've been an easier solution.. and I take it for granted that there is an !para flag?

Your analogies are really cute, but none of them have any significance in a real argumental environment. I am a potentially legendary player, after all. Well, truth to be said, everyone is, as long as they are willing to spend fifteen hours per day mudding. Ranting aside, let me get to the point. Pe...
