In my opinion as outsider, Roledā€™s idea for a witness on IRC is reasonable.
Assuming what GMs will tell or how offensive they will get isnā€™t but I guess it depends on what you want to achieve. Change? Justice? Revenge?
If we talk about constructive discussion, I gather this forum can provide that when it comes to events, RP, art or tech related topics. Otherwiseā€¦ well, you get what Iā€™m or others are doing now
I also think community would be best served if you Roled, the GMs and everyone could put this frustration behind and get back to roleplay, events and whatnot while not diminishing your legit right to raise concerns.
my thoughtsā€¦

PS:
Iā€™ve found freenodeā€™s web based IRC client works most of the time including my phone. Still, youā€™ll have to manually save the logs from the browser window. http://www.planeshift.it/IRC
   When you exhausted all other options you can look for the next in the food chain I guess which I understand you have to anyway to have the warning removed. http://www.planeshift.it/element/%7B%7D/Site%20images/Pages/Development/Organization_Chart.png

It was lots of fun!
Thanks for all who participated and made it happen (Dalos and Rheos foremost) and congratulations for the winners!

How about when we recently (less than a year) started looting two hearts or two potions from the same beastie by chance? Could it be that those have something to do with each other?

Little changes that might make ā€™reload arrowsā€™ or ā€™hammer closed ringā€™ shortcuts work smoother:

So a ā€™/dequip stack iron arrow; /equip 65 iron arrowā€™ could first try to stack the ones you are holding with another in the inventory and then grab the stack which is closest to 65, so you donā€™t end up with several smaller stacks clogging the invo;
The same way ā€™/dequip stack dozen closed steel; /equip 1 dozen open steel rings; /useā€™ could stack the products and use up the smaller stack of materials first.

for a start..

Laros places a little note in Esanorā€™s palm that reads: "Good job diverting the mob, brodr, so an ally can take his time goinā€™ after the real treasure. It is just that next time Iā€™ll want in. Remember, Iā€™ll be watching yeā€¦" 

thank you LigH  ... but I meant: I'm not sure how much it's worth to be able to buy an expensive ticket while you can simply pay the right amount of trias. Sure you can gift it but: is it worthwhile to do spend development time on it? would you use it for real?

  About development time I canā€™t be sure. Say you need: a settings dev to review the idea and designate one or more NPC 15mins, a dev who can access the SQL database and runs ~4 commands 20mins. Say that is 1/3 of the time those two individuals spend with developing for us in a week. We still canā€™t say if it is worthwhile, since I cannot know what else is in the queue and how task are prioritized.
  As for the other part, you are probably right if you put it this way. I assumed their existence was well grounded since they are in game already. But that raises another question: If we only use it as a bank note worth 1000-2500 Tria depending on the situation why burden the database with them at all? 

PS: No offence, sarcasm, pointing fingers ment, just trying to ask constructive questions to find whatā€™s best for all. Thank you all for even considering.
