Are people that stupid?
« on: September 15, 2005, 09:38:21 pm »
Ok, yes I make a lot of threads like this, and I\'ll keep making them ;)

Every time I\'m at the magic shop, Oja Road, or the Plaza, theres someone ALWAYS casting flame burst, and I crash every time...They should know by all of the posts on the forums, the bugtracking site, and complaints from ingame characters that it causes crashes, and it probably crashes the caster too...So why do they keep doing it?

You guessed it. People are idiots ;P


EDIT: Anyone wondering where this came from, I just crashed the moment I entered the hyoja02 sector, and saw someone casting flame burst on a rogue...obviously crashing

Obviously noone does that on purpose.
I suggest you try to note the players name, add it to your buddy list, at least temporarily, and when he/she relogs, tell him/her that the cause of the crash was the flame burst spell.

I mean, the game can be boring, yes; but crashing oneself system isn\'t very distracting.
Are there any MoonSeekers left?

Good job, you\'ve contributed to the useless posts on the forums.  The amount of irony is amazing.

Funny, I have heard this spell may cause crashes, but it never happened to me.
I saw loads of people casting it. I did it myself and no crash.
Another thing is summon missile seams to be more effective, so i dont use flame burst.

Also i agree people are both stupid and are idiots, what make you Suno stupid idiot too =P



What you can failure tommorow, failure today.

flame burst is the most powerful spell for now so it makes sense that people cast it... though it only ever crashes for me when i use it(and even then it doesnt crash too much). not when others use it...
<Rux> i wish i could say that narrows it down, but the internet is one freaky place

Yes, everyone is stupid, I\'m stupid, you are stupid talad is... well, I can\'t say that :P

This is actually a very good example of how everyone can cause problems for thoers without realizing it- you have a bug that makes you crash when you see flameburst, but they have no way of knowing. Lots of things are like that in real life, but you never even see them till it\'s too late and you are the one suffering from it.

As for this bug, I don\'t think I\'ve had it- But then again, there have been random crashes when anything could have caused it. Since it\'s very hard to reproduce, it\'s even harder to fix, I\'m afraid. Too bad there is not an option to turn off effects....

I don\'t think its the effects, its just this spell itself...All the other spells when they hit, they don\'t make an impact effect, just hit and then disappear (Like magic arrow, it hits them but doesn\'t make an impact effect) and with Flame Burst, when it hits, the sparks fly everywhere, so it must be a defect in the impact part of the spell, because I only crash right after its casted...

That might help ;)

Arrow does a impact effect too, that ripple-like thing..

And I\'ve never crashed on flame burst.. not once

Are people that stupid?
Yes.

I never crashed because of a spell. I cast a multitude of spells everytime i do combat, dispite the fact they have no/little effect, it makes things less boring. I\'ll continue to do so.
Run the updater, update your system. It\'s your fault your crashing.

Hmm, ... Someone ruttling on the tree of headbutts,...

Such actions are neither funny nor cool, and it\'s not good for the server to crash every few minutes, so now that you know, dont cast flame, ESPECIALLY not on porpose...

I dont even like the spells, but if i had it i would still probably use it, i have not, nor seen a person crash from the use of this spell, its only something that happens to few i suppose, many of my friends use it, but I prefer steel....

also, making people mad is the coolest thing in the world *evil laugh*

It\'s your fault I\'m crashing, and I\'m updated...You\'ve probably never crashed because your computer must have this manually fixed, but your still causing problems for people like me, and whats worst is that you know about it, but you continue doing it...

so now you are saying people shouldnt do it because it does bad for you? and you seem to be in the minority? i dont think poeple should have to stop... its not as if its the end of the world, click the ps button wait a few seconds that you are good to go again.
