and i was right, ra or fort must have told toboe that i took his account so rob, toboe (rob) are discussing this atm in MSN Msger

Im sorry but behavior like this in other games would have resulted in a ban even with the admission of giving your password to someone else, because its your account that you are paying for vs someone who is causing the type of mischief that will drive players far away.  I would have already bought a C for myself if this hadnt have happened, i have been waiting for an email migration for a very long time and didnt want to risk that, i guess its a good thing i didnt or they would have had a nice free C account hmm

True , except:

If you happen to know someones email adress , you can try to hack the email and do an Account Retrieve. Do a paypal transaction, and you mostly got their main email. Ask their MSN, or w/e and you got there email.. You dont even need the account name and account pass.

I did have an idea, ill post it @ suggestions.

Lets see if I can address some of your issues. I will start with the screenshots. It appears Fort Minor is talking about a person with access to your account "taking advantage of their resources" because they thought you didn't play anymore. And he hints at possibly knowing the person, as far as I can tell...

Surely, you can see the problem with this from an administration point of view? I mean, you admitted to at one time sharing your account and password. Many players do this with the assumption that the email linked to the account will never be used in anyway. Perhaps they never used a valid email to begin with, or it has been forgotten, or expired. I imagine that the ability to view the E-mail linked to the account *IF* you have the account name and password might cause some problems to folks who share accounts with untrusted people. That, and there a number of other scenarios: an account that has been sold, traded, shared, and stolen various times. So, this is a difficult change, and might prove to be disastrous to some...

If players 1) use a valid email, and 2) keep their account and passwords private, then there should be no problems...  hmm  However that isn't often the reality.


As far as vulgar chat, or unwelcoming/mean player population goes, I agree. Its fairly well recognized and I hope that some time in the future we address this and start up some basic moderation rules.

Lastly GM involvement..  I think that there has been a great deal of activity, I logged in the last few days and lots of monster spawns are expanded, and/or redecorated. Though, I agree somewhat, we need more game content. Maybe another town for the next notch up from Midgard. tongue


But lets rember people shared there acount info way before zer bought out his faldon encyclopedia, giving everyone are email adresses.
over 12 people lost there acounts so i guess thats 12 people less playing now.

but thats what i meant by progressive diversity, things need to change as you level up, the monsters, the areas completely (being able to go back to any town if you have to) as well as the items you are using; not just blindly adding spawns and more areas for the higher level players to camp, im talking from the bottom all the way up like it should be done, to even past what even the higher players can handle.  I do agree that i used to enjoy playing with a healer last client, but even that wasnt quite enough, we need groups of mobs that require 3-4 players to tackle as youre saying (atleast 1 warrior, 1 mage using a certain magic school, 1 healer and 1 archer) which would add a whole new aspect to this game, currently the only diverse group activity is the pit; and the pit is easily solo-able by some people, but i think that's mostly to do with the ease of killing the mobs in it.
Anyway a lot to do with the reason why it takes players so long to catch up to the rest of us (because it really isnt hard to catch up) is because as soon as they reach the mobs that even the high level players are still using to level up, they begin to get harassed or told to leave because the higher level was there or arrived and wants to use the spawn and  TBH, no lvl 250+ should even be using dire wolves to level at all (this includes Lethe, and the dire caves) as well as people 400+ using tigers and bengals to level; there is just way too big of a gap between different things to level up on.  if these places were all level restricted (low level restriction and high level restriction) then you're allowing players within certain level ranges to level in peace, or at least around people of their own level thaT they have a chance to survive attacks from, then it goes to Geg around that and everyone knows that Geg usually has a laundry list of players waiting to use it most the time, so i say add in leveling areas for necromancers, druids and paladins within believer, priest and high priest ranks, add in a high priest spot for geg, add in some more lower level restricted areas/dungeons for lower players to be able to level (even if some are C only), and then add in group oriented leveling places throughout all level ranges, and then quests pertaining to killing certain mobs for an experience and item/gp award and it will be a step in the right direction and that is how most mmo's do it anyhow.
