Player character annoyances

[Fantasyfiend]

A sim economy makes perfect sense, I mean, this is a role-playing-game, and economics should play just a big a role. You can saterat the market with gold from battle, just to make more money from silver. Investing. Something that isn\'t done in many RPG\'s. As for thieves, I think if you had a GOOD thief it could make the game interesting, but it takes one soo long to be mediocre, it\'s not really worth the effort.

Ok, you people are getting a little to wanting, If you want this stuff go try to program yourself, You can\'t expect this crap any time soon, It is to complex, All anyone says is \"I want Player owned Shops\" but they dont think about how they would have to work and buy and stuff, and also about how the programmers would have to program this for a year and forget all the other stuff in game.

Thanks Link!  You are exactly right!

This is why Link doesn\'t get banned, you people.  :-)

On the other hand, Link, this IS the \"Wish List\" forum here...

\"Hmm, I wish I had a solid gold toilet seat to sit on too.\"

Some of the wishes on this forum will be granted right around the time mine is too.  :-)

When I hire the programmers to build my mansion, And have all gold toilet seats, I will put in a good word for you.

Expressing ideas is too wanting? I\'ll make a note of that.

It is Aelya\'s castle and she invited me personally. She also informed me that you do not belong here. You are not a part of The Dark Empire guild and it is you who does not belong.

You can shout,rant,spam and play all the hypocritical games you want Link. It doesn\'t make you right. I have mostly chosen to ignore your posts because the large majority of them are nothing but negative. Not even funny, you demand banishment of random people , break the forum rules and get away with it.

You insult newbies like its a sport. I am sure many smart people with honest interest in the game have been drivin away becuase they made one mistake and you took it as your personal mission to point it out as crassly as possible.

You make a reasonable post expressing an opinion and it is vaunted and praised. Boggles my mind. But have at it Link, I tried to reason with you before only to discover that you are not a reasonable person.

I\'m sick of it and I am not the only one but apparently that doesn\'t matter. Maybe the forum rules should be declared null and void because then the mockery of the rules would be nonexistant.

Obviously your statement that the devs are your friends holds more than a grain of truth.

So I may have to have to suffer with you in these forums, I can not even use the ignore function  as you have been on my list since a very short time after I registerd and I can still see your posts. But I do not have to suffer with you in Princess Aeyla\'s castle, you are not welcome there and you are king of nothing.

Get out.

Man i\'m late!
I wish i would have read this befor all the good stuff was deleted! lol,
dang!

I did not see Link\'s post\'s before they were deleted, but I back up Fiere\'s comments 100%.

I have seen many potential, genuine Planeshift fans turned away from the game, because of Links abuse on IRC. They make one little mistake, then take it personally when Link flames them and tells them to leave.

I am lucky that I got to know other people in PS before I got to know Link.

lol, funny....is diablo still around anymore?

[Relentless]

Ah I love this.  Leave it to Link to turn a neutral wish list thread into content that must be deleted.

[Vengeance]

I should point out that Link deleted his own posts here and elsewhere.  When I delete them, the posts disappear completely.

On the subject of Link \"being my friend\", I can certainly say that nothing is further from the truth.  I don\'t know him at all.  However, he does often say what I am thinking when he replies to posts which are not in the right forums and not indicative of a person having READ a single thing on these forums.  Those people doing that are simply not following good nettiquette and should expect to be flamed by someone, Link or otherwise.

Me and Venge were never friends.. he simply tolerated my posts.

Don\'t give up!  

Sure, there are a few folks who think your idea is cracked.  Heck, I think it\'s ridiculous.  But you must see something I don\'t.  Prove me wrong!  

So, here are some cursory groundrules.  Please modify them to suit your style or reject them outright.  

1.  Start a new thread on it.  Don\'t take any negative feedback from me, Link, the Moderator, or any other person who doesn\'t like the idea in general.  Get a leader and see if you can get the posts deleted that don\'t comply with the rules of your thread.  If you really take off try to get a new forum.  

2.  You are on your own.   This is not much of a problem since most groups are.  PlaneShift, as a group, is on its own. You need to be self-sufficient.  Get programmers, economists, and other skilled people together and organize them.  

3.  Keep the passion that I have been reading in this thread alive.  

4.  Make sure your work passes the straight face test.  Don\'t make the system ridiculously complex.  If it doesn\'t fit in with the standard RPG economic system it probably won\'t be accepted.  

5.  Keep your focus.  I have seen one project die after another.  Source Forage has plenty of them.  If the passion I have seen here is for real then focus on the project and it will work.

Look folks, this thread is essentially dead, however, read through it again and see if you really want this.  Start something fresh and make it happen.

P.S.  Rule #2 is the important one.

As a side note, take the word \"Sim\" out.  The fine moderator has a document that shows it\'s a prudent move.
