Why is there such a hate on for rogues?

... sit down, kick back and relax, and talk about anything that doesn't belong on one of the other forums.

Totally agree. Cant help but feel fortunate that I have the option to dreadlord my Ko'bal master.

Apparently you can only do 3 quotes in a post. That's cool and stupid at the same time.


But to do the account recovery, since they're being finicky about my responses to their terrible automated recovery thing, needs them to call my house phone. The stupid thing predates my cell phone number which I've had for a decade apparently, and I was never hassled enough to update any of the info but the password in that time.

So....soon?

You're breaking the heart of everybody who ever invested time into seanchan characters with this tragedy of having to shelve your stattable WB and bonused human stabber. :P

Well if you wanna talk about the old days...there was a reason we had 100+ people on at any given time. The game was fun, and there was way less bullshit. The excuse of "we all just grow up and move on" is complete bs. Yes that accounts for some, but there are other forces at play here that are pushing people away......but to get us back on topic....

I'm continually amazed by people who somehow think this game would have 100+ players consistently "if only things were exactly how I wanted them to be" -- it's 2017 and most of the core base from that era are pushing their mid-30s if not more. It's shocking there are even 30 or however many of you still consistently playing.

Oh, there's also no point in bringing this "back to topic" as I think we've heard you whine about the same thing in different ways at anyone who disagrees with you.

Agree with this but looking at the number of players on other MUDs it isn't really hard to see there is still a market out there for this type of game. However i think its less about the changed mechanics and more about the lack of coders.

Sorry to derail.

+1 to less no hides, i have personally afkd for hours at a time because there is no real threat of dying if you dont want there to be.

Edit : I think a nonsafe game would at least mix it up.

Experienced players have perfected this. Making horrible large ganks or bonuses the only way to kill. I can't recall having killed any master on a non-master. But that could just be me.

A tangent. Apologies.

Make less no hides. Match stab lag to charge lag.
