Really, lockpicking is active? I thought that the closed doors were not openable yet, or am I missing something? I'm a PT locksmith in RL, I'll have to find the trainer for that for sure

Edit: Hmmm, a locksmithing guild...

you did not ask me but ill give you an answer. nothings wrong about being appreciative twords the devz. nothing at all.......i personally just hate it when people get on all 4's and pucker up thayer lips n await the devs to pull down thayer pants and bend over so they can give it a nice brown-noser kiss  its kind of sad pothetic and even if i was a dev it wouldnt like it much.

Surely you are not insinuating that I have done this? Can someone not show their appreciation without being called a brown-noser? I've never kissed anyones ass in my life and I dont plan to start now. I just appreciate the ability to be able to play this game in it's current state. If you read more into my words than that, then you need some serious help my friend.

For one, who are you?

Just a guy who got tired of listening to someone whine and moan about how this game isnt everything they thought it should be. Anyways, what does it matter who I am? Just because you have been here longer than me does not make your opinion any more valid.

How long have you been here? And what have you seen?... So much has happened within planeshift and if you havent been here long you might just think that everything is just fine.

See above. Again, what does it matter? To answer, I just recently found out about this game, but plan on hearing my opinion for a long time to come. Did you honestly expect that things would stay the same, when you have thousands of people signed up and hundreds that actually play on a daily basis? How could they possibly address everyone issues like before?

...someone within the community tells the person he/she is wrong or that they shouldnt question what happens here. And these are not even the devs or GMs or anything like that. Many are people who are just merely stopping in because the devs have made something nice here.

Perhaps you did not read my posts. I have said, and I quote, "Questioning things is essential, but you were not questioning, you were DEMANDING" ("you" of course referring to Datruth).

I made a statement earlier about the lack of community these days. And I beleive it has something to do with the older players feeling neglected in a way with the influx of new players.. which will continue to happen. But with the smaller amount of people before, we were a closer nit group that was an actual community. But that has kind of gone away.

I completly see where you are coming from. However, that does not mean that the older players should be able to make demands and be a general PItA. Things change man, and as more people become aware of this game, expect it to change alot more.

They are here to just play and have fun but not get involved personally with the game itself. When you reach this point we can have a better conversation.

Please forgive me if I took this out of context, but that second sentence sounds a bit elitist to me. Can you only have an inteligent conversation with long time members of this community?

I may have only just found this game/community recently, but that does not make my opinion any less valid.

I thought slipping down a hill and dying was fixed a couple weeks ago?

The last time it happened was this past Monday (7-31-06), so I dont guess it was completly fixed. Maybe I should fire PS up and go try to slip and fall, I might have found a virtual banana peel out there

Man, thats going to be awesome. Making it harder to die by accident will be a god-send. I cant count how many times I've slipped down a hill and died by accident

How am i not giving them a break, they always get the benifit of the doubt and they hold all the power.

Why is this an issue with you? It is THEIR game, THEY are developing it. They dont need the benefit of the doubt, they could just close the servers and develop the game without ANY player say so or opinion at all, just like every other game company. So why shouldnt they "hold all the power". Geez, you act as if this is a country that you are forced to live in with them dictating your every move.

What's with all these attacks on me, just discuss the issue, not the people, is that so hard?

I never attacked anyone. I was simply responding to the issue at hand. If you see that as an attack then thats your problem, not mine.

People discussing the game and helping to change it, while it's being made, is that so hard?

Not at all. Thats one of the very things that I love about this game. However, you are not "discussing and helping", you are demanding and are being quite annoying about it.

[an "IC" glitch report.]

One fine evening I was on my way out of town when all of a sudden...
What in the name of Talad? Am I to leap into this great void? Perhaps I should return to town and tell the others of this.

As I turn around I feel as if my body is being warped and contorted, but as I walk away from the void, the feeling leaves me.
As I make my way back around the bend, I notice a mighty shadow befalling the road.
As I attempt to walk through it I am somehow blocked. I feel like I'm only half-way in this realm. Perhaps if I go to sleep I will awake from this dream...but if so, what could this mean?
[Note: A quick quit and restart of the game cured the problem. Thought I would share the experience.]
