Don't complain about existing features because they're inconvenient to you.

And about five hundred more that go to every other city/level in existence as the world grows?

Besides, it is only an 8 minute and 47 second run from Akkio to Hydlaa.. a good time to catch up on some email with autorun on  ;D

When i play planeshift I want to play planeshift, not catch up on something else. besides, windowed mode is screwy on macs.

only 8 minutes? It takes me a half hour.

Half an hour is way too long... Unless you're experiencing massive lag, making circles, and stopping every two minutes to chat.

Yeah, uhh...no, it can't be cut in half. It's impossible for me, actually. Every time I try to go the direct way instead of follow the road, I end up falling down a hill and dying, no matter what way I try. It's impossible to make it back, and I'm simply tired of trying. =/

Well I heard that fall damage has been reduced, I might be able to make it now, but I can't go ingame right now anyway, so I'll do it later.

I've got an idea: TWO portals in the Death realm. one goes to akkaio and the other to hydlaa.

people in hydlaa will /die to get to akkaio faster. then /die to get back to hydlaa.

Really the best thing to do (before the Death Realm gets to be longer than Oja Road) would be what someone suggested in another topic: have the portal send you to a totally random place every time, no matter what race you were. That would solve both the problem of people using the DR as a shortcut as well as the problem of "all the action's in Hydlaa" because more people would spawn close to Ojaveda, and maybe go there.

Why not simply respawn where you die?

Mmm, but why would a Kran spawn in a Lemur town? That's the Lemur town, not Kran village, and since he would just "appear" right in the middle of town, and completely pass the guards, I don't see it as realistic. A better idea would spawn anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to be a town.

I like that idea.

It is quite proper that dying should be something painful, to be avoided.

This would almost always make that so, and for everyone, not just for those with fur and tails.

It's really annoying and even OOC. I.E. Someone could miss an event in hydlaa because they died.

Yeah... dying can be a bit inconvenient some times. I even heard that some people couldn't go to their own hundreds birthday, becaust they died before - this is really annoying. When I died last time i beat the hell out of Satan just because I was that bad-tempered... :devil:
Hey! That is what dying is about - if you are lucky. IRL people miss a lot more than a single event because they die.
Okay... enough flames :)
I am happy about Enkins spawning in Ojaveda... When getting there it is not always completely deserted - exactly due to that reason.
It would be good of course if all the other races got different spawn points too - or alternatively respawning should be random... as discussed e.g. here http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=24736.0

Directly in front of that Ulbernauts fist? Or in that bottomless pit I crashed down?
Perhaps there could be one respawn point for every area...
