May I make a suggestion - One party rule

Bardan the Slayer · 06-05-2003, 01:33 PM

It seems to me that you have initiated the one party rule to stop PKing (and fair play to you), but wouldn't an easier and generally less confusing way of doing this to be to set the server to no PvP, and cancel the one party rule?

I kinda like the possibility of having seperate parties forming naturally instead of automatically. Also, the automatic party thing seems to be confusing some people.

Of course, if there is a different reason for the one party rule that I don't know about, then feel free to kill me with sticks. Or something.

One advantage you won't have otherwise is that you'll always know where the other players are. You can see the level of Undermountain they are at, and if you're on the same level they are visible on the map.

That works both ways, though, as the pk'ers can find you too. I do like the idea of separate parties forming naturally, as you don't wind up splitting exp with people who are in the tavern, while you are on lvl 8! I popped into the tavern once and lvled up talking to Durnan. It's ok that way, but I'd like to earn my exp. Also, you changed the lvl restrictions, and I couldn't play the char. that I had been playing in the mod, and all the cool stuff he had came from the mod!!!

Sounds good to me! I'll change each level over to this rule so I can allow more partys. -- In the next update!

We're up now, if ya wanna join! Level 8 is stocked some more, and the Tree stump is finished. (HUGE battle and good rewards in there!!!)
