About skills I agree with zanzibar, but about Strenght, Agility...etc. There are 2 ways:
1) PP-s can be used only for stats, but this isn\'t very realistic, becouse of the same problem as with skills, you fight and than raise Int. for example...

2) Stats can be trained by activities, running around with heavy backpack increases endurance and strenght.
Fighting increases Strenght and Agility.
Using magic increases mental stats: every way increases the stat that it\'s dependant on...

But when stats rise by doing something the increase should be small enough...
And faster training could be done with trainers: in Gym\'s, nightschools , with jogging, etc...

And also there could be skill decreases, for exaple, if you only fight night and day, your mental skills would start to decrease(but at very slow rate) and the other way around (this could cut down the PL-ing, but there are always those who don\'t care...),
so you would have to do different things to keep your char balanced.

The point with the guild is that it is never intended to be a thief guild as people imagine thief guilds, it is not a usual thief guild that concentrates only to thieving, we have our goals and ideas what we are going to do, but we do not reveal the now... :rolleyes:

To explain: the guild has 2 branches, Thieves and Warriors.
Both have their own Commander: Tyriel commands(not atm, but since no thieving abilities are available it doesn\'t matter) Thieves, and I command Warriors, usually we work separately(thieves at night and warriors in daylight) and  our services can be bought... also separately

But the main reason is that warriors and thieves can do many things differently, but if they co-operate they are much more flexible and can handle almost anything.

We can be just more effective working together, thieves help warriors in things they can handle by themselves, and  warriors help thieves in situations that need pure offencive strenght.

Also imagine this situation, we are hired to stole something very valuable and very well guarded object. Thieves alone would have to work much harder, to get in undetected and steal that thing.
But with the help of warriors, warriors can create a distraction, attack openly and lure most of the guards away, thay can survive that battle and retreat after a while and keep the guards occupied for enough tie that thieves can get in undetected in the confusion and steal it, killing (probably they even don\'t have to, becouse of the confusion) anybody still left guarding it...

To Efflixi: Why so sceptic.
Well... actually we never had the guild ingame since CB started, Me and Tyriel never met due to bugs and crashes, so you may have a point...
But one can never be too optimistic and I hope this turns out well... I just wouldn\'t like to waste a good idea

The time that a character is in the prison does not have to be very long fro 15 minutes to 24 hours, and be more of a warning, and each time the character is put into a prison the time would grew longer.

But another intresting idea would be forced labor  :rolleyes:
A player must collect a certain amount of some resource or  build something or  make some weapons... whatever skills a character has.

*thinks of several players in a fenced yard with chain and iron ball around the ankle, and breaking rocks*

And the physical barriers, would they apply to all objects?
now it would be \"funny\" to drop some Clacker Meat(with dwarf model) everywere and walking becomes a pain in the... of course one can pick them up, but it is always possible to put them several in one place...

As much as I know about the <> in front of the guildname, it shows that the guild is one of the \"old\" guilds, before the new guild creation rules were created.

About the Housing:
One way to let guilds build their own and unique Guild Buildings is to model it in 3D and than send it to devs and they can aprove or reject it.
Becouse usually if guild is large enough to afford a bigger guildbuilding, there is at least one person who knows 3d enough to make a castle or something like that, but this option should be available only to larger guildbuildings, to save time and size.

This way a guild building will be really unique, of course this creates a problem with matching the architecture of Yliakum...

I think that the additional things like walls and houses should  be made from blocks that is already in the game (maybe texturing only to match the texture of the guildhall, but it is not essential)

The best choices are 4 Mercenaries:
1)2 Mercenaries are in the left of the arena entrance up the stairs in one room(usually heavily camped)

2)1 Mercenary behind the iron fence or something like that,  this one is through the passageway in the middle of the hallway in the arena entrance( left or right, I do not no for sure, I always find it by accident), this one is usually free

These 3 are easy to kill even with normal weapons, they don\'t hit very hard...

3)4th Mercenary is right from the entrance up the stairs, and usually empty, but he hits pretty hard... usually harder than I could with falchions, but he is my favourite, and I have found all my good weapons there

PS! They drop only Broad swords, Battle axes and apples, better weapons are found in Gladiators and rogues...

Today after playing for some hours PS crashed... I closed it and restarted PS, but when i try to log in, game says: \"No account found with that name\" ?(
I retyped e-mail, password, but still nothing, restarted the game, still the same \"No account...\"

I know that I didn\'t type the wrong e-mail, I checked...

PS! Last few times when PS crashed during playing, I didn\'t start it again after few hours... so dunno maybe it\'s temporary, server still thinks that the account is in use...
(optimistically, I hope it is like i think it is )

Is there any way of recognising the mining locations?.
Well exept the obious - look for lots of people standing somewere out of towns...

or  miners just have to run around and hope to get lucky once..

My char is in Ojaveda, and every time I try to log in, I can be in the game about 10 seconds, and then...
linkdead...

Tried about 7-10 times, each time there is same problem...

I doubt that it is only the map of ojaveda that is causing the problem, but...

PS! the buddy list, settings, custom commands -  everything seems to be cleaned, or default again, does it have to be like this...
