I'll miss it too. Despite all the complaints I never really thought it was much of a problem, just a different thing. And yes, I did experience it with my player account and no, I had no problem at all not knowing who all those strangers were. Hopefully it will be worked on and reintroduced soon.

Now, it'll be interesting to see if roleplay increases as a result of this, since it was thought that this mech was killing it. Was it true? :detective:

Errr.. that's not quite what I meant. I liked it because of the funny conversations it came up with. such as
 
(19:16:06) Camazotz says: Hello, Orgonwukh
Orgonwukh says: [who's that someone?]
(19:16:47) Camazotz says: [which someone?]
(19:16:53) Orgonwukh says: [you someone :P]
(19:17:03) Izzabella says: [lol who is talking and sayign hi Orgonwukh ]
(19:17:04) Camazotz says: [Camazotz]
(19:17:13) Rinenud says: [Camazotz]

I hope to see this system again soon! I await its arrival, and by then hopefully there will still be some more confusion among the dreaded, feared,    someones!

Its... over... :)

Well, I think its a nice step.
And I still think that introductions are not good for PS, at least not in this state of developement. Maybe later.. but I hope next time the implementation will be considered wiser :)

Thanks devs  :flowers:

Ah, here I thought I had just gotten to know everyone and that is why I didn't see the someone's anymore.  Ah well, I'll try to introduce myself the old fashion way still, just to keep myself sharp...

To answer the initial question: one can only hope.

Why do you like the intro system? I'm interested to hear...

I always enjoyed running away when someone begged me to /introduce myself and "you can call me bud" wasn't good enough.

I hope to see this system again soon!

This system made me stop the most of my rp. That there were few (for me: exactly one) completely ooc situations where it is funny doesn't have something to do with increased rp that it apparently (should have) caused. And to be honest, I think all someone-jokes are already made now and not only once...

I still am happy that it got deactivated again and am curious to see the more well thought version (And if it won't come... Im comfy with that, too   ;D )

I miss this system.  Now that it's off, we have noob idiots who deserve bannage running around the game again.  I am finding myself using the report tool on more and more stoopid people.

One good thing about it being gone is that it is much easier to see bad character names to report ;)

...and how does that have anything to do with the intro system?

I suppose it could be coincidential, but it does force new people to realize that this is a role-playing intensive game and not some silly thing like WoW.  It forces people to roleplay, but I wouldn't say it encourages people to because it doesn't offer any incentive to roleplay apart from letting others know who "Someone" is.

Well yeah you are right, I didn't think of that one this time.
