Explaining WHY the current system is fine if you feel that way, for instance, or proposing something different and superior to the idea from this guy who apparently doesn't really know what he's talking about.


If i have a idea to change the system I'll put it in the 33. If people would take the time to read carvers post they would see that changes are coming to make the criminal life style much more risky and the glorious Time of the Rangers will return.

People posting bad ideas about a system they know nothing about should get their trash threads locked.

Just because I know how the system works doesn't mean I'm required to tell the idiots such as yourself who aren't actually playing the game how it works.

And you couldn't communicate any sense of that in a courteous and succinct fashion? Because it feels like you are after something else with all this blathering. If you really wanted to correct people and provide an obvious argument for shutting down "trash threads" you would do that, not waste time carping and complaining and calling people idiots and what have you.

And while you are perfectly free to consider me an idiot (I disagree) I do play the game. You shouldn't assume I don't play the game just because there isn't a conspicuously similarly named character you now of in the game to my forum name. I keep them separate for a reason.

And it would be great if you posted constructive, well thought out ideas in the idea forum more often. Please go ahead.

Somehow I doubt you are a fountain of ideas and constructive criticism behind closed doors.

It is exactly because JC has been expressing his willingness to change the crime/raid system that I'm making proposals for HIM to consider.

You've yet to show how I'm at all misinformed about current crime systems and further more that the error is significant enough to completely negate a proposed replacement system.

Wouldn't this allow any group of high bile characters to just clime over any wall and slaughter all the members of a town with little danger to themselves as long as the town didn't have their own equally high characters to defend it.


Dallane, this is an example of constructive criticism, in one post this person has shot down my idea more effectively then you have in six posts.


In reply to Whyamihere, this could indeed be an issue with wall climbing, raiding isn't really meant as a way to pick off non-combatant characters, I'm inclined to give the defenders a bit of a warning, say a warning sound (like a bell) when ever any Trespassing is occurring, this would let the defenders log off their non-coms and bring on their combat characters and basically rally to the defense. Alternatively you could just prevent a trespass Debuffed character from using killing blow, this would allow the raiders to fight, KO and loot anyone they can catch, but so long as the defenders remained within the walls they can't be killed by raiders who climb walls.
