I'd like to apologise to someone? for stealing his Ulbernaut claws at ruins

The guards can't just run up to you and kill you when you're out in the middle of nowhere for dropping something.

As for apples and the such, they fell from the trees and weren't picked up...no crime done since the tree did it.

Liadan I cannot imagine punishing a tree for what is it does naturally. Though I must say that I enjoy eating those apples from the trees and I am glad they fall because I am not tall enough to pick them from all the way up there.

The fate of trees is to end up as furniture or buildings, and they do not spawn in the DR.
Leama you do know you can pick them off the trees with /target_next_item /pickup (not sure the exact syntax at the moment) don't you? but perhaps you are unable to climb to justify it.

bilbous I did not know that I could target an apple. As a young dwarf I always watch the apples to fall from the trees to eat them.

* Leama thanks bilbous for teaching me something new.

Biggest reason for disallowing the dropping of items is ooc and therefore a GM will showup when you're in the middle of nowhere and bop you

Actually we're planning a heavy campaign against the trees for constant littering of the map.  Some of the trees will likely get kicked or even banned if this persists.

hmm now you folks have me wondering because I leave crafted blades all over the place. Acually I leave them in places where the beginners tend to go. and believe it or not alot of these folks message me askin if I dropped it by mistake. so seein a post like this does not surprise me this game has some very honest people in it.

Mmm.. Couldn't people create trash cans? Or prehaps a donation box...

The ability to drop and pickup items freely adds depth to this world, and makes it fun in basic ways. Better to have a daemon watching access times on object and deleting old ones, just putting out a trashcan, or putting more memory on the server and leaving that section of the mechanics alone.
