Title: Are there no advisors anywhere?
Post by: defender43 on March 17, 2006, 08:23:15 pm

I have tried using /advisor several times over the course of ten days. Every time I get the same result: absolutely nothing!

What do I do if no one will answer my question?

You try posting on the forums, or going into IRC... Several people have commented on this mysterious advisor disappearance as well.

Maybe there are advisors, but my message isn\'t getting to them! Maybe it\'s a BUG!

I doubt that :P You can make a petition to GMs, too. Anyway, have a question?

Yeah. Why can\'t I dig for gold near Levrus\'s magic shop? I\'m trying where everyone else is, and I do  have a pickaxe.

Um.. Well, being an advisor every-so-often, I\'d have to ask a few things first:

Pick-axe is in hand yes? You have skill in mining yes?
You are using /dig gold command, yes?
Pick-axe is in left hand, yes? (Unless they\'ve fixed that without my knowledge)

If you\'ve met all the criteria, I have no idea.

Mhmmm.. could be a bug... anyone want to verify that they have answered/been answered recently?

If you ask for help, and no advisors are on, it will tell you right away. I\'m pretty sure that works. So the advisor at the time could have been idle.

afaik the answers are getting through however, often a /list advice requests command will give questions which have infact been answered

Aieeee! I keep learning these things which I\'m supposed to know! (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v74/karyuu/kaoani/Argh___.gif)

Karyuu hyperventilates and runs off to look through the Player Guide again.

*edit* It says \"which have been unanswered,\" actually, so that\'s probably a typo on your part...? :>

At this moment there are less advisors ingame.
It seems the former advisors are not motivated enough
to advice anymore.

Most of the time the Game Masters are advising now.
And the GM\'s are very busy, so they don\'t have all the time to answer all questions.

There was a time in the past, when advisors were almost competing to get an advice for answering.
I hope this time comes back, but we need to wait for it again.

Oh what delicious irony, I stopped advising because of the competition :D

Well, hopefully now decent advisors will come back.

/me huggles Karyuu,
dont worry youll be fine as long as im here to keep you right XD (hehe just kidding)

but no, the /list advice requests command will often give questions which have already been answered,

my shortcut for /advisormode on has a /list advice requests command with it, after advising people and then crashing when i come back and click the shortcut there question is often displayed again as if unanswered

I (used to) do that too!
(Hadn\'t been an advisor for a while...)
