  1. noob/newbie

    "Dumb Little Kid"? That's a little presumptuous; Adults can be annoying in-game too you know . If you looked at the definition, there is no difference (as both are unacceptable Internet slang). I don't think there is any difference when using them (or at least not much), you would not exactly walk up to somebody and say "Hello, newb!" politely would you? EDIT: @Lexi: I know, mostly by the misinformed, too.
  2. "if you HATE america so much...."

    ? Loving that ice-cream comment. Billy Connelly (Sp?) FTW. Just thought I'd say that. I clicked through the other Videos;
  3. noob/newbie

    Yes, I know. But as Exeus his post pointed to aswell. There is a different use for both words. Which I gave the explanation for. That was once the other topic: What is the difference between n00b and newbie? -Blee Guess it's better to avoid the internet slang all together, Aphistolas.
  4. noob/newbie

    "n00b / newb" mean the same thing, "Newbie". Refering to a person who is, obviously, new and inexpierenced to a particular area. (In this case, Eternal Lands.) @Matty: Eejit or Glakey I think "n00b" is used far to often these days, as is the 1337 claims. Back when it started, you had to have MAD hacking skills to call yourself 1337, now any idiot can claim to be one of the 1337
  5. Draegonies

    Eh... Why don't I just keep typing "#suicide" (or dying) over and over. So my mates can collect those nice scales I drop? (PS: Not Dragegoni)
  6. Draegonies

    I don't like the idea all together. People PK as it is, what else do they need? NMT, CoL, Titanium Armour etc... If PKers want more goodies I say “Get a job! Ya lazy bums!”. =D Bones/Meat/Dung might be okay. But I don’t think it would be worth implementing. Plus 3~5% doesn’t decrease the potential abuse people would just kill their friends over and over again. It would also create some unfairness for Draegoni who are walking across PK maps (To get to a rare mining spot, etc).
  7. Draegonies

    Why should PK be encouraged even more?
  8. Wands

    Wands have already been denied. Magic Medallion or something sounds slightly better (I guess it would be less work.)
  9. Story & Quest Writers Agreement

    I, Aphistolas, have read, understand, and agree to follow the above terms of the Eternal Lands Story and Quest Writers Agreement.
  10. A fun website, when you enter a song Pandora will search its database for others similar. Also, it's completely free. Pandora
  11. The Cadaver Calculater

    Less than thirty people in the world have been diagnosed with that Allergy. Just curious, does your saliva etc not irritate your skin?
  12. Re-think reseting!

    I think it should just be an acceptable risk of PKing. Plus, its going to be evident, if you see somebody with 40HP walking into a PK area with anything above augmented on. "Look at that newb! How did he get that full Titanium? Lets PK him!" Obvious, no?
  13. Hero Points

    Isnt there already an item which; if you critical fail on manuafturing, potioning, crafting you lose the item instead of the ingredients? Hero points being used for fighting, IMO, is a good idea. Perhaps a player could be given a certain amount of Hero Points per day, the same number as everybody else. (That way the newbies can have the same chance during fighting as the more experienced players.)
  14. Ring of gold

    Hm, I suppose it would not be worth it. And the Abuse factor is too high.
  15. Ring of gold

    I would say something like, once every two EL weeks. It would give you bad chi .
  16. Do you have any actual sugguestions that could encompass all the main events of EL? A storyline is needed before people make technical sugguestions.
  17. 1 weapon and helm suggestion

    Plus seven defence is way to much in my opinion. If anything it should hinder defence but do more critical damage. Maybe "-1" defence because you have something similiar to a staff to block your enemies strikes with, but after a swing (and a miss) you leave your neck/head/upper torso exposed.
  18. A change in Rostogol Stones

    I do not play on the ghandi account anymore but I do continue to use this name for the forums. You just sound like a scared N00B who is afraid to loose a little bit of his stuff. The reality is that you are pathetic...too scared to take any risk at all. Always gotta have that rosto in the inv because god forbid you loose a few pixels on your screen if you die. Thats all full titanium and col's are...pixels on a screen. If you cant afford to take a little risk, give up now...in EL and in real life - Ghandi 1) You hide behind the name "Ghandi" yet you accuse others of being "Scared". 2) Are you annoyed that some of the players are taking wise precatuions to safeguard thier things in a PVP enviorment? 3) So a safe PKer should "give up now...in EL and in real life" because you're angry at the lack of drops you're getting? 4) A few pixels? *Ahem*. 5) Not everybody has the money to keep buying CoL's, Titanium armor and/or a special sword. By buying rostogol stones (Roughly 16K each, or 5USD) they maintain the sport of PKing. If everybody went around killing each other, without using rostogols, a small select group would become insanely rich. The normal Steel/Cutlass PKers would not have the money to continually purchase gear. Eventually the number of PKers would get smaller and smaller, they would become more rich etc. It would have great effects on the game as a whole.
  19. bear drop

    I would guess that all bags share the same timer routine. 6 minute poof time for DBs and even work bags would be a serious negative change. Last time I checked, items (not dung/pee etc) werent affected by the nitrification cycle much? Just decrease the bears drops "poof time" to six minutes, keep the other bag times. Then again, it would have to apply to people who drop dung at storages etc to bagmix.
  20. bear drop

    Bag spam? Perhaps the "Poof" time for bags could be decreased to six minutes? The whole nitrification thing working faster.
  21. Legolas_O

    ("Serp'ing" a spawn? I got accused of this yesterday, I did not attack the other persons creature and there were two spawns =? Then when I told him what level my A/D was I was he said "You can have a spawn then" or something similiar? ) I suppose nobody owns a spawn, it is polite to leave if one person is training but you cannot expect everybody to act polietly in a MMORPG.
  22. The Cadaver Calculater

    $5030 I blame those harmful chemicals they use in Chemistry .
  23. Shutdown Day

    Impossible, I need my Laptop :]
  24. Taverns!

    The ideas I like, 1) Half mixing food for potions 2) A fast regeneration area, which you have to pay to get into. (Hey, FR would need some powerful Essences, they dont come cheap ) But why not, 1) Up the cost (possibly only by 1GC) of Wine/Mead/Ale (Equals it out for potioners) 2) Lower the cost for meat, less is going to be used but the same amount will still be coming in (E.G. From people selling it)
  25. 1 weapon and helm suggestion

    Swinging a Scythe would lower defence GREATLY, unless you have the strength to lift it up and block your opponent very quickly, s/he would have time to bring a sword down on the your throat.
