Irritation due to code involving repeated deaths

Post by Gilorn »

!#>pray vale
You kneel down and try to hear the Ainulindalë.

The Ainulindalë whispers to you 'Your physical wounds may have healed, but'

The Ainulindalë whispers to you 'your judgement appears to be impaired. You'

The Ainulindalë whispers to you 'must wait until you are of sound mind.'

This after only five deaths on the character in a two hour session. Now I understand this is to keep people from killing themselves repeatedly so they delete faster, but for a level 1 who just keeps dying while trying to tp down south (which I tend to do with ALL new characters since tping is a pain at low levels) it makes it rather annoying. And imagine if this happened to a newbie. I think they'd get frustrated and quit playing.

I think this code should be either removed or modified to not be applied to lower-level characters.

Edit: After 15 minutes of waiting, I was finally able to pray. A couple ticks later, I died again, and got the code AGAIN. Screw this, playing a different char for now.

I think you should post this on the ingame Idea Board rather than here. Or well, you should also post it on the ingame idea board. Maybe the people in charge will listen, maybe not. Maybe they don't like lvl1s spamming around for tps any more than suicidal maniacs. No clue, but it's worth asking.
