Beasties should give out more crystals because that way, less time spent
hunting - More time spent RPing.

When more crystals exist, people will want more money for weapons, virtual
reality or not. Its common bloody sense, bud

Well then not only would the beasties have to give more crystals but the teks
would have to give out more weapons that way, competition would keep costs
down

Make it so weaker players get more crystals and tougher players get less
crystals. Weaker players have to take a lot longer to get the same amount of
crystals that a "stat-freak" can get in a short period.

I've a better idea. Make an area for 'stat freaks' with more crystal worth,
and higher difficulty. "stat freaks" have to spend about 10x as much as
newbies do to boost atts.

Sorry, but I don't think that's truly necessary.  Flames and QOOC weren't
necessary either, except to keep the flames and qooc's off of *Chat.  And
since this is a MOO of free speech, there's nothing you can do to stop folks
from posting songs to *Chat or *Flames.  Most you can do is simply skip over
the offending post.

Actually it's just like *flame and *qooc. It would keep the song posts of
*chat

Actually eppy, that is a good idea.  Having a subsection called *songs would
be excellent for two reasons.  1) It would allow those who want to read them
the ability to do so.  No offense, but like *qooc and *flame some people don't
want to read them all.
Creating such a sub allows those who wish to read the enlightening songs such
an ability, and those like Nomar to not.
2) Perhaps more songs would be posted.  We could carry quite a collection, and
albiet it is a social function if I've ever read one, it would be benificial
for some.  Think of it like poetry.  I mean, the songs  put in *chat and
*flame have risen.  Anyone
can see that.

My two songs.

(wow.. Nomar actually made sense ;) )

Subject:  Other mailing lists.

I made *flames and *qooc because folks were threatening to unsubsubscribe to
*Chat.  *Chat is a fully public mailing list, created and maintained by Quinn.
*Flames and *qooc are not, they are more private, created and maintained by me
so folks can remain subscribed to *Chat and not have to be subscribed to
*flames or *qooc.  *Chat is supposed to be OOC talk about IC issues, at least
that was the original purpose for it, it's gotten away from that slightly.
Many people post to *Chat about important issues that I'd hate for folks to
miss because they unsubscribed to it due to the number of qooc's or flames
they got sick of seeing.  Making *songs is taking this a bit far, in my
opinion.  What next?  Is everyone going to get offended by seeing posts about
lightbulbs and insist on a *lightbulbs list too?  I've already got enough of
my quota expended on *flames and *qooc, I'm not making another one for this
too.  If another tek or geo chooses to, that's fine.

A way to pose *hidden* emotes, using whisper for things unseen by others is
quite klunky. Unless there is a way that someone knows that I missed?

We need more.. Especially for when we are going to have more non-combative
spells. Perhaps you could switch spells up into categories, and allow a
certain number of each depending on alignment? I.e., druids would get more
defensive spells, necros more offensive, neutrals an average? And then make
the same number of utility spells for each type of mage..

Subject:  Spells

Spell parrying.. Instead of failure, the ability to stop a spell in mid-cast
;)
Ex.:
Toraxyn raises his hands to the sky, as if to summon some great force. The
wind begins to pick up slightly, and he shouts, thrusting his arms out in
front of him. He shouts, 'ThermoBlast!!'
Rathe raises his hand, and speaks a word of power. As quickly as the winds
picked up, they immediately die down again.

Rationale? Its annoying to get damage and ins every time you fail against
someone else.. Besides, it looks damn cool to deflect someone else's spell ;)
