  1. About Pickaxe Suggestion

    Sounds like a good idea to me, it think a lot of harvesters would like the idea too. Lets face it, taking 10 picks can be a pain, and it takes up a lot of bag space. Having stronger picks for a much higher price sounds good, and it`ll add a little more cash to the economy. How bout actually making the picks?? Something else for manu`s to make and sell??
  2. Afk Auto-boot

    OMG!! I made this suggestion ages ago, I said that people who AFK at storage areas should be teleported for a couple of reasons...... 1.They cause lag in those areas 2. When storage areas become busy,it can be hard to actually get to the storage bot Theres no need to disconnect people who are AFK, as its been pointed out, people remain online so they can recieve messages from people, this can come in handy when someone has something important to tell you, but isn`t going to be around when you are. I do hope the make them PKable was added for a joke http://www.eternal-lands.com/forum/index.p...1&st=&p=entry
  3. What Is Ur Favorite Smile ?

  4. Cloaks

  5. Economy

    <_< So everyone is s`posed to lose everything they`ve worked months for to make it fair to the new players huh?? Er WHY?? Why should I give up everything I own just to make a new players life easier and fairer?? Did everyone give up all their items when I first started playing?? Erm no dont think so, and nor would I have ever expected them, nor would I have ever suggested such a ridiculous poll as you have. Warangel, weren`t you in another thread moaning you were being picked on because you`d scammed people?? As Dax said, not everyone is rich ingame, and even if they are, they`ve earned it because they`ve worked hard for it. How long have you been playing?? Couple of months maybe?? Play the game for over a year like a lot of us, then maybe you can understand just how stupid your idea really is. Every new player is poor, its down to them to work hard to gain items and experience, if they dont wanna do that......they can stay poor Just for the record.......I picked the 3rd choice too
  6. England

    Well Skuller already answered for me, South East (Essex) And erm Crann.......you calling me a Southern Shandy drinker??
  7. Player Rep

    Ok first and foremost, it seems some of my other Polls were locked because people (i.e Forum Mods) misunderstood the intentions behind them. So let me clear this up right from the start, this is NOT an attack on anyone, and I`m NOT having a dig at anyone,this is just a suggestion to try and help cut down on the recent increase in Mod Abuse CLAIMS ingame, and on the Forums, it is also my intention to see if people agree with what I`m thinking. So I`d ask people NOT to flame this Poll and thread, I didn`t post in Flames, because it ISN`T one, so please, dont turn it into one.......thanks. Ok, the basic idea is that Players have one or two Reps they can talk to about anything regarding what they feel is an abuse either by a player, or by a Mod, like a lawyer if you like, they relate the story to the Player Rep, who then SPEAKS to a Mod, or the Player. By talking to someone else 1st, part of the anger and frustration is difussed,thus cutting down on the slanging matches flying back and forth. Anyone that spends anytime here on the forums, knows as well as I do, there has been a HUGE increase in Abuse reports being filed. I`m lucky that I`ve never felt the need to file a report of Abuse, but lots of people do feel upset or angry about things that happen ingame, or indeed even here on the forums. This is also a way of players being able to talk freely without fear of being punished or banned, it has to be said, that with everything going on lately, some people dont feel comfortable talking to Mods anymore, again, this is NOT a dig,I`m just saying what people feel. We have Player Reps for the other aspects in game, so why not have a Player Rep to deal with complaints, a Complaints Dept if you like. We`re all adults here,and most things can be sorted quickly and quietly without everything blowing up on the forums, or in the game, IF we talk and discuss things as adults. Everyone can get emotional once in awhile, but we have to remember here, although a very good one, it is just a GAME,its not real life,sometimes people lose track of that. The Reps need to be people that Players AND Mods respect and trust, they need to listen to both sides of the story and with sound judgement decide after hearing both sides, if there really is a reason to file a report to Ent or Roja. They need to remain calm, and be able to calm a situation down so people can talk clearly so that ALL the facts can be gathered. After thats collected, they can discuss with the Player or Mod being accused of abuse, either here on the forums in PM ONLY, or ingame, in PM ONLY, there is no need to broadcast to the EL world whats going on. I`m sure Roja and Ent have enough to do without having to sort out Mod/Player abuse complaints, so this is just a suggestion of how we can help each other and make the world a better place to live in Thanks for your time
  8. Meat

    Go and hunt deer and boar like the rest of us to get ya meat......or are you afraid of being called a nOOb by ya fighter buddies ?? :lol:
  9. Player Rep

    Opps, sorry, I meant to put "claims" , but I guess I missed it, my apologies!!
  10. Player Rep

    This is the problem I was hoping wouldn`t come up, but I should`ve known better, this is NOT designed to be a witchhunt, and it certainly ISN`T jumping on the Mod bashing bangwagon!! This is WHY I`ve put forward this suggestion to stop just that!! In most countries, most people have the right to a "fair trial", I`m just saying that why not use that here? It shouldn`t take a week to debate anything, once both sides of the story have been heard, a decision can be made if the complaint should be taken furthur, or if the complaint is nipped in the bud there and then. If there is an inbetween, the chances are it wont result in a slanging match between the two parties involved, it`ll somewhat defuse the situation. Thats what I`m trying to do here
  11. Player Rep

    Lachesis you pretty much banged the nail on the head, I got lost with some of your fancy wording, but I think you got the basic idea of what I had in mind. I`m not saying that these "Reps" should be given any official powers as such, for as I said, they`re not intended to be "Mods", or N/H either. Thankyou Roja for your responce, its good to know that your behind the basic idea of this. Placid I`m sure lots of people will happily chat to you about a problem, I personally dont have a problem with any Mods, as long as they`re fair and they listen to what people have to say. And yes, if there IS a serious problem, then it does need to be brought to Roja or Ents attention, but what I`m suggesting could cut down on a lot of unnessasary hassles for both of them. Look through the Abuse section, esp the last couple of weeks, how many posts are there screaming "Mod Abuse" ?? Quite a few, the idea here is to work for both sides, players AND Mods, to reduce the amount of grief you guys and girls get, but to also give the players the reassurance they ARE being heard and that someone WILL put forwards their case should the need arise. At the end of the day, all I`m trying to do, is to cut down on all the bitching and moaning from both sides, so we can all get on with enjoying the game. I wouldn`t expect the EL team to make these "Reps" official, but it would be nice IF the idea went ahead, that they could acknowledge they`re there for a reason, and support it from afar, we all know you have enough to deal with,without adding to that work load. As I said, these people need to be well known, unbiased, and well liked by as many people ingame as possible, so if anyone would like to be put forward, or if anyone has someone in mind, please feel free to add your thoughts Thanks for your time Edit: I should just point out, that they cannot be from the Mod team, because that kinda defeats the whole idea
  12. Player Rep

    If they are more on one side than the other, then they`re NOT the right person for the job, they need to be 50/50 all the way. And the whole idea is to cut down on the unnessasary reports being filed. And as I also stated, a lot of people dont feel comfortable talking to Mods anymore, this is way for those people to be heard in a fair way.
  13. Bring The Ants Back To A Non-pk Map For Anthill?

    :lol: Yeah I did, but I got better!! I have having some problems and I didn`t think I`d be back, but I got them sorted out So I`m back, and no I didn`t notice the Poll until yesterday!!
  14. Which Gargs Are The Large Ones?

    http://www.eternal-lands.com/index.php?con...reatures_undead http://o.tfm.ro/ Click on the monster section :lol: Hmm make up your own mind, one says one thing, the other says another!! I`ve always thought the "Large" Gargs were the big ones WITHOUT wings, simply because they look so much stronger and more defined that the TALL with wings Oh btw...........since when have Gargs been Undead??
  15. Pp Reset

    There are good and bad points on both sides of the debate, the thing we all have to remember here, is its still being developed, new things are being added. So if we went ahead and did a PP reset, people then relocate their PPs to where they want them, then the following week, the development team bring in something new, and all of a sudden people think, damn, now I need to spend points in another Nexus that they`d left blank, or had only spent one or two points in, so then they wanna spend their points differently again. As things are added to the game, people will change the way they play, I think most people will have a go at anything new ingame, whether it be a new potion, new clothes, or a new weapon. Enyo made a comment that people that work on Alc or Pots are some of the richest in the game, well, I work on both and I`m not rich!! But what it boils down to, is, if fighters wanna spend all their points on boosting their combat skills, then thats their choice, so then they`re left with an option to either buy pots or ess to train, or make it themselves, its all about sale and demand, its what keeps the economy healthy. The fighters make a bit of money by selling their monster drops to others that dont fight, so it swings both ways. People pick their points, once they`re spent them, they`re PPs are gone, thats how it should be in my opinion, if people make a mistake, they should learn by them. We all know by now new things are on their way, so although I see Enyo`s point about points being wasted, I think if people are really that bothered by it, they can reset. If they`re high level, then it shouldn`t take them long to level up again, as for training, well thats the price you have to pay. I reset awhile ago, because I wanted to lose a Neg Perk, and also to readjust my Nexus and Attribute spending, although it took me awhile, I`m now beyond what I was before the reset. So if people aren`t happy with the way THEY spent their own points, reset and relocate those points again.
  16. Gnomes In A Barrel!

    OMG!! Its an invasion by Bill & Ben the Flower Pot Men!! All we need now is Weed, and we`ll have the full set!! :lol:
  17. Bring The Ants Back To A Non-pk Map For Anthill?

    Personally, I was glad to see the back of them, they were damn annoying, but I think people tolerated them before because they were being used for learning purposes. I think the game has come a long way since then, and I think they`d just be taking up space and if there are too many, they`ll just cause lag. I dont think we really have a problem with hundreds of bags laying around, sure there`s always a few on IP, but thats only coz the new players think bones aren`t helpfull or needed, not that I mind, coz I head to IP once in awhile to do my own bone collecting No offence Learner, they were fun in their time, but I think that time has past
  18. Bag-jumped By A N00b

    <_< ShadowMage nobody is laughing at you, if you were refering to the Justice post, I think if you read it, he was responding to a comment from Satan. The fact is, if you are indeed new to this game, you will not realise that posts like these are so common,and that this "discussion" has been going on for months and months. No decent player is ever going to praise another player for bagjumping, most decent players have had it done to them several times, and they know just how upsetting and frustrating it is. If you got the impression nobody really cares, then I`m sorry, you`re wrong, people DO care,but that said, you wont get a thread with loads of people telling you how sorry they are, like I said, this has all been said so many times before that people get fed up with posting the same thing over n over. The thing that does puzzle me though, is that you had that amount of stuff and yet I`m sure I read you were new to the game?! Forgive me if I misread that, my point is, if you aren`t new to the game, surely you must`ve realised the risks of going to VC?? VC ISN`T safe if you have a low defence, so whoever it was that said it is, again, is wrong. I could go and sit in VC without being attacked by Gargs, yes, but if the Orge showed up, he would attack me, and kill me. So dont take what people have posted on here as a personal insult to you, because I`m sure nobody meant it that way, well, not the decent players anyway, you`ll always get one or two idiots that jump onto a thread just to boost the post rate,and just to call someone a nOOb, sad I know, but it does happen. So learn by this, experience makes us all better people,and better players, you will know now to be more careful, learn by your mistake, lets face it, I think most of us have. Please give the game another chance,and get stuck in ok
  19. Bag-jumped By A N00b

    Yes many EXPERIENCED players have multiple MM Cloaks, and also many "nOOb" bag jumpers belong to EXPERIENCED players who have multiple MM Cloaks, so how does raising the price solve anything?? Put simply, it doesn`t, nor does removing the perk. Just accept it, face it, bagjumping is here to stay, because its too easy. How much does Iron Armor sell for now, 10k, 20k.....one bag jump and the "nOOb" has loads of cash to buy what he likes in the game. It would be interesting to look into some of the names listed on these types of threads,just too see if they is any evidence of MULTIPLE accounts <_< Bet there would be quite a high number, as I also said in my other post on a similar topic, most genuine new players dont even know how to eat, let alone what an MM Perk really is and where to go to bagjump death bags. Its so obvious at times, I find it hard to believe more people cant see whats really going on. Maybe this is something the programmers need to look at, and maybe come up with an idea, is it impossible to make a bag so it can only be picked up by the person that died?? Think of how much bagjumping that would stop Getting rid of the perk or making the cloak really expensive is unfair to the players that aren`t interested in the fighting aspect of the game, some players use the cloak or perk to harvest items that can only be found in dangerous areas,then return to work on there Alc, Pots or Crafting, why should they be punished??

  21. The whole truth of me (100% truth)

    :lol: Awww man I love it when I find a really funny thread like this one!! Just so ya know GGK is also a friend of mine, so forgive me if I laugh my ass off that finally someone who was acting like an asshole, is getting a little dose of what payback is all about!! War.....if you make an enemy on here, they tend to remember you for quite sometime, personally, I`d be more than happy to see ya killed EVERYTIME ya set foot in a PK map Scammers and bagjumpers DONT deserve a 2nd chance, why should they, he said they haven`t split the Axe yet......I didn`t see any mention of giving the Axe back to GGK, maybe if you did that, people MIGHT start to forgive you. People like you give the game a bad name, new players are just that, NEW, some haven`t been playing long, and yet you prey on them, lure them into a PK area, and then you and ya buddy double team them?! Wow you brave man, I`m SO impressed, but did you ever stop to think of what you were doing to new players, they start a game, 10 mins later they`re being scammed by the likes of you, sets a real good example doesn`t it?? You`re no better than the idiots that sit on spawns in online shoot um ups, just so they can kill people before they have a chance to react. If you dont like the heat, stay out of the kitchen, as the old saying goes, you started the war, you deal with it, and if you cant, well, I think you know the option. EL would be a much better place without the idiots like you, yes what you did isn`t illegal in the game, but it doesn`t make it right, or clever. Silvara, keep up the good work
  22. Bag-jumped By A N00b

    <_< When will people ever learn?! If you know you cant kill an ogre...why go into VC?? I didn`t go deep into VC for that very reason, if I wanted to harvest something, I took my MM cloak so I didn`t get mauled and I didn`t lose my stuff You will never get rid of bag jumpers in the game, because its too damn easy to be one,and the fact is, a lot of people cant be arsed to do it the hard way,they`d rather steal. In R/L they can be banged up in prison and become a soap dodger, on EL, they get away with it day after day. Theres another post on the forums, where I said that most of these "nOObs" aren`t new players at all, they belong to people that have been playing the game for a long time with other characters, and just wanna get things the easy way. The only way you could ever solve the problem, is by making the death bag in such a way, that only the person that died can pick it up, if thats something programmers could work on......I have no idea. Its sad and annoying and frustrating when ya lose stuff to people that dont deserve it, we`ve all had stuff stolen, but my only advice is too warn as many people as possible, and try to avoid areas where theres a good chance you could die. If you HAVE to head to those areas, leave all ya expensive items in storage, OR go with a friend. Thanks for your time
  23. Excuse Me?

    From Placid Erm ok, where on the Poll was I asking if anyone loved or hated ME?? The rules state "Do you [hate,like] me?" I never even mentioned me......OH!! Its the whole "Spirit of the rules" BS again........Placid, I have no problems with you, and from what I know, ya seem like a decent bloke, however, closing that poll was wrong. It was not about loving/hating someone, it was about trying to stop 2 great players from leaving the game. Both of them are well respected within the game, and I think they would be badly missed if they go. I`m getting a little fed up with all this MOD crap flying around, you wanna have ya bitter little fights, do it in ya own time and in private, all this needs to stop now before we lose even more players. My poll was designed to convince Jeze n Crann to stay, not to show if people loved or hated them, coz we already KNOW the answer to that, you`ve only got to look at the replies on their goodbye section.......or are you gonna close that too as the rules state........."there are to be no "Do you [hate,like] me?" threads." Thanx for your time
  24. Excuse Me?

    I`m hardly throwing something up in the air that people didn`t already know about, lets face it, the Roja n Platty war is famous on the Forums. My point bud, was that I dont want to see two people leaving EL, esp over an internal dispute with another one possibly more mods. You know as well as I do, certain Mods have posted their views all over the forums now, we look to you guys n girls for guidance, if you`re going to slag each other off in puplic, what example is that setting the other players. There shouldn`t be any Mod wars, I wish everyone would just get on with each other so we can go back to enjoying the game. Yes you`re right, I have only heard one half of the story, if someone wants to tell me the other half, I`ll gladly listen and then make my own judgement. Maybe Crann has deleted or closed Polls, and yes I`m sure you have the files to prove it, but I`m not interested in those, I simply feel that my Poll was not hurting anyone, it was not attacking anyone, it was a Poll just to get Jeze n Crann to see that people want them to stay on, as Mods, or Players, it matters little. You know what they have done for the game, and how many new players they help on a regular basis, we need new players to breath life into the game and help it to grow stronger. Aisllinn, you`re another good guy, so surely you know how important it is to try n keep people that players trust within the game? And if my thread was seen as a rant, then I`m sorry, it was not meant as one, but as I said, I didn`t see any harm what so ever with my Poll, and to have it closed liked that felt like a slap in the face. Thanx for your time
  25. I need your input guys!

    I think it should look like a "Godlike visage of Ent" :lol: After all, he is God and the creator, so why not let him grant us our extra skills
