There are so many Dutch, in fact, that they have started sending them off into outter space!

Yeah, ok. I didn\'t think about it very much, I understand your point of view now. Hey, I\'m in favor of this. Potentially, it\'s a great bloodsport feature that will entertain people and make certain ones a handsome profit. Lot\'s of opportunities for impropriety, too.

You should offer larger purses for the fighters. Otherwise you won\'t get the best fighters and you won\'t draw a big crowd. Fighters can still organize their own betting on the side - even thrown matches if they are clever enough. But at 5% will any of the best fighter bother to use your service when they can set up their own. I realise that you promise to run the whole match, even hunt down and kill rule breakers but still, only 5%?

The Dutch are good gamers. Never heard of dutchphobia, though. The more Dutch the better.

The artist did not set them down. He created a work of art for the public to enjoy.
If somebody took a statue from the public square of your town one night would you not call it stealing? Of course you would.

Yes, even I knew the risk. I am still happy I did it though. Also to the devs: Can you look into the database or something to find out who stole the xstals? Like player soandso took a ruby from coords 1,2,3?
Even if they did look it up, It was a mean thing to do, but its not a crime...theres nothing you can do about it...
Of course it was a crime if someone stole the xtals. Suppose I made a hack and stole your crystals - would that be mean but not a crime? Wake up, PK is almost here.

I would have assumed the plaza xtals were swiped if the temple ones were still aloft. And been pissed off, too. Can a server reboot make the map look different in one place? And, is that what happened?

No one is under any obligation to read these forums. Spam is useless and annoying and should be controlled but if people still have valid points to make, let em. If you do not like what\'s being said, stop reading it. Clicking the Next Thread >> link is even simpler than stealing a crystal.

And now, back to Unreal Tournament and gun-barrel justice...

Cool. I like it as an art project.
I will give you some emmies, for sure.
But won\'t people take them? I have no clue how to do that or how to put them up in the air, either, but someone must know.

Rakel was talking about crystals that you are obviously attemting to pick up, not any crystal on the map.

....I was standing on top of the crystal when he arrived....
If someone wants to argue that this kind of disruption of the way the game is actually played by the vast majority of players is role playing, I would laugh. But ok, maybe it is. However, the crystal thieves I\'ve met in Planeshift are just selfish pigs taking advantage of people in a very OCC way.
I think most people in this thread who told Rakel to pipe down have a lot of crystals. I wonder what they would say if they had none. 8o
