    Krrick, fair enough.

     

    Still, I think people who are so easily annoyed should pay a visit to psychotherapist, because if they are easily annoyed when one bot tells something well-mannered, no matter how many times, and on top of that, that bot can be completely ignored, then those persons risk heart attack when something REALLY SERIOUS happens in their lives...

    Or, they risk, at the very least, that someone will punch them in the face when they try to forbid their right to say anything they like in the public (free speech is the one of the basic rights in every democratic country, and protected by law).

    Dear EL players, especially those who are against local talk by bots, just think little bit what you are against! That is seriously insane, seeeeeriously! :P

    HAVE YOU EVER BEEN ON A PUBLIC PLACE? Haven't you EVER heard guys selling newspapers on the streets, shouting news, trying to get attention of passengers, or similar case on any market place? You cannot possibly want to forbid their right to SAY SOMETHING!!!

     

    Similarly, on EL, bot should be allowed to say ANYTHING that is NOT AGAINST THE EL-LAW! End of discussion.

     

    Because EL is a PERFECT world, you have the all-mighty #ignore command !!

    I worked hard (for years) to get my levels (allthough I did not level that much in last 2 years I admit because I am not an active player any more), and I am speaking from my experience when I say that multiplaying is simply harmless. You cannot be as effective with multiplaying as without it - your main character MUST suffer from multiplaying! Players who multiplay still cannot surpass hard-working players. If they want to do so, they would simply BUY A CHARACTER, like they usually do, and we all know it (check the top 50 list and You will see maaaaaany bought players there).

     

    "I would afk-harvest with 10 alts to do that, rather than paying someone to harvest for me" -- asgnny.

    Asgnny, you might do this, I would not, having 10 windows and switching between one another is maybe for some freaky addicts. I would rather buy stuff I need. Without doubt. You are forgetting one major point here - EL IS A GAME, and games should be FUN. Switching between 10 windows IS NOT FUN, and no sane person who playes EL to ENJOY IT would do so!

     

    Allow multiplaying and, If you want to be fair towards hard-working players, then better forbid character trades!

    Absolutely YES.

     

    I see a lot of babbling about EL should be hard etc. People, please come to your senses! Every high-level player simply cannot afford to cheat if (s)he wants to further develop own (main) character - all time that person has simply must go in the development of the main char. I see no harm in allowing multiplaying, and certainly I think EL will continue to be a hard game.

    I am not top a/d player, but I will definitely go to KF every day, when I am online playing EL. I had so much fun this morning, no matter I died hundreds of times (which I expected because many players from various guilds team against single players). :D:)

    6 pps r nice for that perk no??????

     

    6PPs for something that can make you die instantly, anywhere, and can be exploited by vicious players? Nah. It is too risky.

    I would take this negative perk only if it gives 10PPs _AND_ if there is adequate "'One' perk removal" stone.

    Roja, what has been done so far is really impressive and I am sure everyone shares my opinion.

     

    However I would like to raise awareness of something many people do not see - In my opinion Eternal Lands has one big advantage over other games - EL maps have awesome level of details. Many games with excellent graphics have focused on effects and eye-candy stuff, while Eternal Lands maps are full of small, minor details. Someone do not care about this, I however think, this is what makes EL so unique, and I would dare to say Eternal Lands maps are much more realistic than 20+ MMORPG games I have see/tried/played so far. I love details, and I really enjoy traveling Irilion where each bush, ruin has something that awaits to be seen / explored.

     

    This said, I would suggest people who work on these things to try to improve it even more (whenever/wherever possible). There are so many things that can be added which belong to this group of "visual" items - i would like to see some windmills, flying balloons (yes, flying objects can also be made just for visual impression), on rivers we could have mills, we could have some creatures that live in the ground and occasionally appear above it (again, just for visual impression), and when someone passes by they would quickly jump into the ground and disappear.

     

    I would like to have more "holly creatures" like Unicorn as well. I would request COWs here as a holy creature (some people would laugh here, but I am actually serious). No, i am not Indian, but i just love cows and would definitely have them in EL as holy creatures. It would also be interesting to have glowing fairies for an example.

     

    I am sure other players would come to hundreds of other ideas that could contribute to this advanced "detailing" of Seridia and Irilion (and later some other continent).

     

    Yes, after all, maybe it is time for the 3rd continent as well. :)

     

    Kind regards

    Aislinn thanks, i missed that part of that thread. I got the point now. :) Thank you.

     

    Still, I would say that rules should be carefully re-written to avoid confusion. For an instance rule I asked about is not "compatible" with those 3 types of bots mentioned after. Furthermore, those are NOT in the rule-list at all! It is just an additional note.

     

    I would appreciate very much if there is a page about bots somewhere on the site, not on forums, with crystal clear details about bots. It would be IMHO more professional, and it could also be used as some kind of end-user agreement.

     

    Kind regards, and thanks all of you for your replies.

    In this case I would request a change in the rules (text), to make it more clear.

     

    What You (LabRat), said above is in clear "collision" with the rule i mentioned above, because bot i explained clearly do not either buy, or sell.

     

    Am I right?

    With all due respect to all people involved here - this whole discussion is ridiculous. As system administrator I often see people executing different kind of programs trying to gain root access on couple of servers I care about. Even though such act is not good, I, on contrary, believe there are positive sides of all this. I heave learned a lot from hacker's exploits and attacks in my life, and that knowledge helps me to fight them. Think about this as well.

     

    Instead of whining here, do your best to make a more robust, better software!

     

    For God's sake, millions of people are trying to access servers by trying various password combinations. I guess many of people who read this thread, who have online home-servers know this. If not, just read your syslog!! Is this something bad? Again, I think not.

     

    Those who know me well probably know that I know Zoki (he was, after all, originally in Yugo guild). I assure you this reaction is not caused by this fact. I would not protect Zoki if he did anything wrong, and I believe he did not (this time :).

     

    Best regards to all of you. \o/
