In that case, I don\'t care what you think.


1. Kids won\'t just go and start smoking just because they saw it in a game, because it\'s bs. If they\'ll start smoking, it\'s not because of the game, they\'ll do it anyways. They might blame the game, or their parents will, but come on, don\'t tell me you actually think games make kids smoke...
2. If smoking is implemented, it should reduce the max HP, and Stamina.
About smoking raising charisma... Yeah, sure, I mean, think about it: A guy giving a speech while puffing every other word, caughing every other one and lights another cig every sentance is very charismatic and sexy! :rolleyes:
3. Smoking got it\'s pros though: If you\'re a heavy smoker, you\'ll have a ranged attack of caughing parts of your lungs on your foes. When hit, the foe will be confused. He won\'t be able to attack for some time, and will be easier to hit.

Just occured to me that the if kids are playing computer games and suddenly think \"Oh this justifies me smoking\". Their next dilemma is finding a dealer or supplier. While there is a prolific drug problem in society today, this is not to say that tapping the culture is easy. I personally think they are much more likely to be influenced by a friend or person they admire that actually has contacts that can provide contraband.

Then again the society which I live in is most likely far different to that of other people on this forum.

No! I don\'t want stat decreases, but what about addictions? If you\'re a heavy smoker, you\'ll need to smoke some tobacco from your pipe every X minutes. If not, your vision becomes shaky, and you will start to have a bit of trouble walking from shaking. There also may be some sort of smokable plant unique to PlaneShift. The more expensive, the less addictive and more bonuses rather than negative effects.

i think smoking tabbacco would be a nice touch in the game but i don\'t think it should give you any boost or negetive affect\'s ....i would love to get my char a pipe (not a bong   ) many time\'s in game i roleplay that i have a tabbacco pipe and when i did my screenie for the guild i gave rumblebelly a pipe and it just seemed ta fit right  ...
as for getting addicted in game that\'s just dumb i smoke ciggerett\'s in real life and i don\'t get all shaky or blurry eyed when i don\'t have a ciggerette the worst thing that happen\'s when i am out of smoke\'s is i eat a little more

X( whoever quoted me... why i oughtta.... grrrr I don\'t see the point, some people, (like me for instance) just find smoking to be very stupid and whats the point of having it in the game? It will just make the devs work to produce script etc. for some stupid cigarettes which nobody would buy because they would think its a stupid idea (like me for instance)

I think pipes would add to the Role Playing experience. I dont think that tobacco should give you any negative or positive effects.

I quoted you. And check this out, I just quoted you! And I\'m gonna quote you again, check this out:

Right, some people think smoking is stupid, unecessary, and will make the devs work on scripts and stuff. But some other people think that smoking will add another RP pan to the game.

Not implementing an idea just because some people (like you for instance) think it\'s unecessary is pretty stupid.
I think that magic is stupid, unecessary, and will make the devs work on scripts and stuff for it to be in PS, but it\'s still going to be there. Yes, even though me and probebly other people find it unecessary, and even though it\'ll make the devs work more.
Some people think fighting is stupid, and will only want to play PS for the RP and the jobs. The way they see it, fighting is unecessary and will make the devs work on scripts and stuff.


The fact that you won\'t use this idea if it\'s implemented doesn\'t mean it shouldn\'t.

hmm, i dont really like this idea on a whole, just because i have a hard enough time getting my dad to let me download the game. i dont need even one little thing to make it even hareder for me to play.

wow i quoted a quote that was fun....

besides i agree with tauren, i\'m having the sme problems, my mums not very lenient with precious gb...

and if you want that stupid tobacco that badly then hve it, but i\'m just concerned about 9 yr olds thinking let\'s go smoke the *waterpipe* is a good statement to state.

PS is a fantasy game, not a medieval game.

Btw, they didn\'t say \'dude\' in the medieval times, and they didn\'t resurrect a whole-lot of threads just to get their post count up either.

[Zackery]

Well I think if you smoke pot your health should lower.

[rumblebelly]

i can\'t believe this post made it this far.....and dude they did have cigerette\'s in medievil time\'s tabbacco has been used by the human race for thousand\'s of year\'s (not to mention other kind\'s of plant\'s    ) the only difference is that they used a leaf to roll a cig not paper that came later...

[Zackery]

Well I think if you smoke one the game it will kill you if you do too much.

Pipes would be alright not hash pipes well maybe hash pipes It could impair your vision and stats maybe
