yes there\'s a big difference, but you agree that in this example it does not matter because you can\'t even run at 50kmh, it\'s impossible even with training :)

or you\'re not human... :D

NO, I\'m not. If I recall I am an Endukai. I\'m sure they have some benefits other than really skimpy outfits.

I don\'t tink an Enki can also run up to 50kph, but if you want I can say 200, so whatever you are, you can\'t run that fast :p !!

actually 50 kph isn\'t impossible for humans... People can sprint in the 30 mph range I believe (which since 1 mph = 1.6 kph...)

:( Boo me then. I can only run about 25 kmph. Well actually that was a few years ago. I haven\'t done sprinting for a while. Maybe I\'ll time myself again just for kicks.

Oh well, that\'s why I play games. I can do so much more than I could in real life. :D

hehe, I race bicycles - 60 kmph sprinting on a level surface:)

I run every other day - just to remind myself how much I hate it and why I am a cyclist.

ok that got off topic: People post here how you think the skill system should be balanced to keep people from learning every skill like in Morrowind

Morrowind is the best example of good skilling. You only get good at what you practice. Pretty deep philosophy there, eh?

Morrowind is good yes... but Morrowind is extremely easy if you powergame - I have more than a couple characters that started the game off one way but ended up maxing every attribute and skill - that is why I started this thread - to better understand how Planeshift will stop that from happening

Gradually losing unused skills I suggest, but only to a point 90-6 months later-30.
The key to manipulative bargaining is to ask for something twice as big as what you want, then smile and nod when you are talked down to your original wish. You are still young, my apprentice, and have much to learn in the ways of the force. -UtM

Yes, that\'s a good idea. After all if you don\'t do something for a while you eventually start sucking at it.

Well, realistically, if you\'ve done something before it comes back to you faster.
