Re: Scout changes

I did not intend this post to be vague or whiny, my intent was to highlight a problem I saw with the changes to the scout class. I have attempted various way to compensate for the changes but now (through player testing) believe the class has suffered a sever blow as a result. I attempted to highlig...

Scout changes

Will the management please revert the changes they have carried out to scouts. The loss of this class (and the class HAS died), love it or hate it has caused massive imbalance in the rest of the game, wizards and clerics are ruling the warlord listings with little fear, they just nuke warriors to de...

Re: Safe client actions

It is my belief that all actions in PK situations are illegal and this one that I totally back. Even such non direct actions such as 'allowing to communicate faster', provide an unfair advantage, if that communication allows for better group coordination.

Re: Question about mobdeath penalty (not complaint)

Marissa's post, whilst moving away from the thread header, is very valid and does not just apply to MUME but all muds. I have been thinking about this for some time now and one of my 'better' suggestions would be to add a newbie 'bot' who would make suggestions: you are thirsty? why not type drink w...

Re: What would you change?

Things I would like to change/add: (no particular order) 1. A hall of rememberance for sundead trolls over level 40 are displayed (perhaps off Grinders room). 2. Reroll/limited reroll period reduced (8months and 4months respectively) 3. Allow the dyeing of metals/leathers ie Black leathers, blue cha...

Re: Safe client actions

Regarding reimbursement, it is upon a good will of the Ainur whether they reimburse or not. Reimbursement wouldn't hurt, but players who keep playing with unsafe actions should not expect getting reimbursed more than once for the same abuse. I totally agree with this, I have also been informed that...

Re: Safe client actions

When you define an #action that automatically sends something back to the MUD you are connected to, you must be VERY careful since you may allow other players to force you to execute commands. Let's explain better: Suppose you define the following #action: ------------------------------------------...

Re: Odd moments in RL caused by MUME

I recently met up with P. Xellia whilst we were both serving in Iraq, he turned up with a friend that did not play MUME. We went for coffee and during the conversation I noticed that we both slipped into MUME jargon, his friend looked totally confused and I found it highly amusing. That night I rang...

Re: Promoting MUME

I actually find it quite annoying how often these sites reset thier counters, I religiously vote every day, enjoy watching MUME progressing up the tables (yes, I know, I'm sad) and then they reset :cry: Are there anyother MUD counters that we could use? I also note that on things like www.thenoobcom...

Re: Areas of Future Expansion

I would like to see the area between Rivendell and Tharbad linked and also Bree to Moria (mostly rural), essentially a big X in the centre of the map. Although this would not be terribly exciting in itself it would not take the brains of a NASA scientist to see how this would open a whole new dimens...
