GBX Rant - In Response to News Post of Max Level

[Scavar]

Hmm....I wonder how much I suck, now I don't know


Also, I'm Venghaal's friend, I like him



Edit: On another note, I think GBX makes sense and I've found myself agreeing with what he has to say a good bit. Im so not perfect

[Cythrawl]

I sit around in the tree all the time because ... I have no idea where else to go and Venghaal has no friends.

Great post! Maybe this will finally put an end on the constant debate about what’s “better” role playing.

[Sammael]

Then you got people who think they're good RP'ers who will have certain death in their faces and laugh. Or a DM will change up a dungeon and they point it out IC, "Gee George! That doesn't normally happen! Normally the hard undead are only in the UPPER necropolis, why would they EVER actually come outside?" <-- This actually happened.

I don't get what your problem was with this. If your character's been in the necropolis a few times, they're likely to understand the layout of the place, where the various creatures which inhabit it tend to be found, and so on. If this changes, they'll take note. Just as they would if blackguards were hanging around by the church or something. Presumably there are IC reasons for there being a floor of zombies, a floor of necromancers, etc, rather than a bunch of these things found all over the place? (which admittedly does seem a little more realistic :shrug

Hey Dashmin, I gotta be real with you. I hate you. Your attempt to piss me off succeeded. Go dig a hole and bury yourself in it.

I care that the players stay, I like most our players. You, I hate. You started a fight with me over a few evil points in the past. And now you're trying to act untouchable and shit.

Just get off the forums so I don't have to ban you. Just being real.

Wow! I was simply asking a question based on the info you offered us. Would have asked the same thing from whoever else posted it. Not too sure why you took it so personal.

I am sure I ain't the only person you have had disagreements in the past about things, but I at least kept it off of the public board. Other than that, I have always been pretty quiet. Sorry, you must be having a bad day or something.

You know we're cool Kangleton People know when I'm cool with them.

Yeah man, I know. Like brothers.

This intrigues me and I am unsure how to take this. So your saying even though he/she was leveling following the rules, RPing instead of grinding, and I assume earning EXP via DM events and the ticker, that they had most to do with the change? Over the abusers? Their only "fault" for lack of a better term is they had time to play?

(of course, abusers played into also, I am just curious)

I can tell you right now, the person who probably had the most weight in our change of the max level doesn't even grind. They just happen to sit on 18 hours a day XD

Quite the rant! The whole dispute over grinding (and I don't know why it came up in that thread, as it was stated that wasn't the reason for the rebalance) is just so easy to get sucked into. The thing that pulls me in is the accusations; I just don't like to see people getting viciously stepped on and whole swathes of the player base accused of being grinders. Additionally, I never claimed to be perfect, though I hope I don't display some of the worse characteristics listed above. Perfect or not, I can't promise not to post on possibly contentious issues

[GodBeastX]

Your rant is nonsense, on account of me being perfect.

It just gets on my nerves to see threads where people go back and forth calling each other grinders. And it's always the people that get on my nerves that throw the first stones and label others. I can tell you right now, the person who probably had the most weight in our change of the max level doesn't even grind. They just happen to sit on 18 hours a day XD
