I like the repop-crystal idea that Harwen had but maybe all char should start with a repop-crystal randomly chosen from all repop cities....or maybe not random....maybe just the repop-crystal from the newb town that all new char start from....that would allow all players to be able to repop but if you had traveled a long way you would go all the way back to newb city....
Now to aqcuire NEW repop-crystals from other cities....that would be a chore....some kind of VERY tough quest or EXTREME beast that would require more than a few people..... I think this would be a good enough way to penalize death...if you went all that way and had to start all the way back in newb city that would suck bad but not so bad as to quit the game....and newbs would barely even notice cuz they would just repop in newb city until they learned the ropes and collected there wussy arses some new repop-crystals.....

I used to play a text-mmorpg \"Materia Magica\" and they had a great system for renaming items...any and all items could be renamed...for a price....as i figured it...if an item was renamed it somehow took up more storage space or whatever then a normal item of the same type..usually because the new name was always long and descriptive such as
Deathlover\'s Elvish Longsword of Grevious Bloodletting
or some such nonsense. anyway Materia Magica was free and in being such survived on donations.... and for a nominal donation,.... say $5,.... players would receive a bag of 20 rename coins in-game which could then be taken to a special place in game, that was difficult to get to. Each coin could rename one item...any item....but were usually saved for VERY rare & unique items.
These coins could also be found in-game but were extremely difficult to come by....they could only be puchased in PK areas from the \"questmaster\" with quest points that were earned by completing numerous quests for other questmasters......(I\'m not advocating the whole questmaster concept cuz i hated that..... Quests should be more unique and far reaching)
These coins also started a whole new trade. they were auctioned for enormous amounts of in-game cash or traded for other VERY RARE items. A lot of people didn\'t like the fact that players could basically buy in-game $$$ for RL dollars buy just buying rename coins and selling them...it made things slightly unfair for those of us who are less financially fortunate, but i say its fine...that way those that have money can donate and those of us who really can\'t afford it can still enjoy an awesome game for free!
This would help a lot in game costs and showing our support to the devs.
