[AdmiralAcid]

alright, the team work posts went over well, and iv been pondering another few ideas for my realm..



1:. NO SYS GOTO's (ewwwahgh, w/ only 1 character per person?, yeah thats right.. whats ur thougts on the two combined)



and...



2:. Fuck making the universal trainer unlimited.. training at your right trainer is fun...



(and one more thing.. I've heard lots of people say that majormud is dying lately (firstly, its been dying sense '95, but HAS NOT INCREASED DYING IN THE LAST WEEK) majormud is still huge, the legit boards are giant. maybe they're talking about mmb and edited community)

AdmiralAcid dont take this the wrong way but I hope to never play on your board if you have one. People posted negatively to the team work topic(me being one). Training at the normal spots I can see, but to want to take sys gotos out.

I'm all for teamwork and stuff like that, but no sys goto's is horrible in a game with LC and barren hills and stuff. You could take sys goto's out, and have a link from somewhere easier to navigate to straight into LC. You could make a path to LC from out in bronzewood or something, that would work. It just needs to be reachable on a couple-times-a-day basis some times, I hate realms where I have to walk to LC. Actually, now that I think of it, I never have once walked there. I've always steered clear. The main reason I don't like it is because when you've got four or five level 50+'s up there scripting together, its hard to get them to do boss runs and shit because they don't feel like walking back to town and then back that night. Then you've got the high level guys never being able to help your new players because they don't feel like leaving.



2:. Fuck making the universal trainer unlimited.. training at your right trainer is fun...



I totally agree with this one. I love hydra runs. I just hated going to my quest hall for nothing. Maybe make universal trainer train to lvl 11. That way, you'd not have to go to your spirit.

Majormud hasn't really declined as much as most people think. I have more access to BBS's now than I did when it was just dialup. With dialup, I could only get on 3 boards. One of them shut down about a year before telnet became big. Then I was restricted to two boards. One of them was 18 and up. At that point, I was restricted to one board. Good thing it was the best board I've ever played on, or else I wouldn't still be playing mud today, I would have went off on other things. Even if majormud dies at metro's end, I believe there will still be a group of people editing, with the ability to draw more people in.

It wasn't totally negative you twit, go back and read. There are a few of us that would like the challenge of a 1 player max realm. No sys goto's...eeek. I dunno bout that....all it does is save time. Not like you couldn't get to these places already, it's just a time-saving thing. Universal trainer thing, that's kewl. However, where the hell do you train after what is it 65th lvl? there has to be a new trainer that trains 65+ or whatever the max lvl is.

[AdmiralAcid]

thanks you two, ur right about sys gotos... I'll be giving those out.



Building a level 65+ trainer needs to be done. As far as going to the quest hall for nothing, it won't be nothing if u have to train there, and its kinda hard at lil level 10 too.



personly i like limited items. but for you no lims people, i would rebuild the spirts' textblocks to hand out your weapon....

[Reckless]

I'd say raise the lims on some things from 1 to 3...it's not like there's not enough magic in the realm to reproduce such artifacts and whatnot. Again, my opinion :wstupid:

As the same as my post on the 1-char idea, this is in regards only to Sinister Urge bbs. No sys goto's is valid if and only if portals are put in, like omc's vortexes. I can see the reason for this if there's problems with people sysing out of pvp and stuff. In general though, it just saves hassle. Same with trainers. It just saves the hassle of having to walk ages to train then walk ages back. No one like just sitting there, staring at the little numbers in the corner of mega as they decrease oh so slowly. Also, the idea of cheap uni trainers, which I'm sure will be challenged next is also a less-hassle thing. Spend/save money for eq, spells, ect not training. Admiral, the destinction between a legit board and an editted one seems to be growing more and more fuzzy with each of your posts. If you want 1-chat, no sys's, training at correct places, why not just play legit? Lastly, in a editted board that gives all that you dislike, there is nothing forcing you to use it. If you want to walk to Lost City with your 1 char while the rest of us sys there so you can be 'hardcore' or whatever, go for it. If you want to train at aged titan for a bunch of plat while the rest of us spend 5 gold at uni, knock yourself out. There is nothing preventing you from not doing what you don't want to.

When Me and Xetox first created MorbidFascinations, thee point of edited bbs seemed to center around building up characters fast. Something to give you an idea of what your charater could be on a legit realm in half the time. - But in doing so, you people are missing this feeling of accomoplishment, a love for a character if u will. I'm tired of running bbs's that cater to players every wish and desire.



I think everyone can agree with me, that players of edited realms are demanding a little bit more now and days, then just power leveling up to lvl 50 w/ bad ass EQ within a few weeks. Sure, my new bbs im working on is going to be edited (won't share the edits with you here), but with a fine line between legit and hexed...



as far as the 'Rules of the Realm' are going to be, im still debating.. hence these threads...

[Brunt]

Well damn..I know I have been away for a while, but that the hell? You guys are complaining because he is not going to allow SYS GOTO? Ok, well....on lots of other bbs's, they dont use them. Are you guys just lazy? I dont care how far out you are and you need to get to town, walk the damn thing. Its your fault your out that far.



I like the idea of training at the spot your supposed to. Makes it almost like a TINY quest everytime you have to level. Its even harder when you have been gone for so long, and cant remember how to get there(aged titan).



Down to 1 character, isn't a bad idea. A lot of bbs's are like this. Myself, I like to have more then 1, but then again, some people like to concentrate on just one, my personally, I get bored with just 1 character.
