i gave my grade 8 kids a math test the other day. some of them did okay, but there was one who got 2/60. a trained monkey, randomly filling in bubbles, would on average get 15/60. i'm sorry, but when you write a test and a monkey does 7 times as well as you do, it's time to drop out of school and c...

Picking on George Bush sure is popular nowadays.
I guess he must be doing a good job as a president. The only bad thing I hear about him is that he kind of looks like a monkey. You know, we all kind of look like monkeys...

Everybody wrote:... Obviously, Stars. I prefer to keep a certain level of worthwhile content in my posts, unfortunately.

Either that or no one pays attention to what you say anyway.

Consistency is vital to appeal. We live in a universe that worships symmetry. Little inconsistencies add up, and can detract from the overall appeal of a game. Then what has kept you playing this "inconsistant" game for so long? First and foremost, this place feels like home to me. But even your ho...

I find it hard to disagree with you on that one, SoulDrake. How is it consistent that you, a single entity, are able to slaughter hundreds of mobs all by yourself... that there are thousands of mobs in the game that never kill anyone. Doesn't seem consistent to me. Killing everything that moves is t...

Rather than picking apart the details of my example, maybe you could try to see the analogy I was trying to draw? The point of your analogy is obvious. I was not "picking apart" your words just to discredit you. I was merely making another point of my own. It takes a will to be evil. Lifeless energ...

Let's pretend that Energy Drain is evil in nature. Let's pretend that this makes sense. If a spell is evil, then the person who casts it is already evil. The spell shouldn't CHANGE the person. The person is already bad. In game terms, you NEED to be evil in order to use it. You're still not getting...

Holylight lets you see anything that is hidden or invisible, including mobs, objects and players. I was suggesting that certain areas have some sort of anti-holylight thing to make it more interesting to heroes. That way, little puzzles will actually be puzzles. Divebomb was suggesting that holyligh...

That's never stopped me!

I am TOTALLY against the idea of spells changing alignment if cast. BUT, if this must exist... Healing only helps, which we all basically agree on. All forms of direct healing spells, by the standard set by Energy Drain, should raise alignment. The caster is sacrificing energy in order to heal a per...

We may not need it, but it might make some areas more fun and challenging for heroes. I think there are other things that should be done first. But, if this is easy, then I say go for it.

Oh, for goodness sake. :P How do you figure an evil person killing evil people is somehow better? If a terrorist bombs other terrorists is the first terrorist now a good person? Does his action of bombing terrorists make him a good person? Does a good person killing a good person make him better? Ob...

Yeah, that sounds cool.

Yes, but it becomes so much easier to be more evil. If you are killing evil mobs, then you should become good. If you kill evil mobs, but your spells make you evil, then what's the deal with that? I remember what you wrote, but it still doesn't cover the basic argument. I also remember a Divebomb th...

I would like to see some kind of room teleportation work in a way that it is triggered when some room object is manipulated. I would also like to see this work based on all the things that SoulDrake suggested, such as race, alignment, perhaps even sex...
