> 1) People dont wish to play empowerment classes because they fear the imm will never be on. > solution....Imms become visible more often or other imms take over empowerment for absent imm. > 2) People are afraid to put time and effort into 'risk' chars such as paladins. This is because they fear they could be unempowered (Betrayer flag) for something small. > solution.....Have another punishment for classes such as paladins they dont destroy their char. > 3) People are forced to spend way too much time practising skills and or spells. Because if they dont, they seriously will be at a disadvantage. > Solution....Reduce the time required for mastery, this will also make getting a group easier. > 4) Alot of people dont seem to complete characters, they level up a bit, spend time practising, die and delete, then repeat > solution.....More emphasis on playing 1 character for a longer time, go back to 5 deaths per con loss. > 5) The mud has too many street trash vermin that for some reason seem to play just to get eq. > solution.....Change corpse looting to pk_only for the first 3 tics. > 6) The problem with getting into cabals is always about time, should be about effort > solution.....Having to play 24/7 and sacrifise your daily lifestyle just to catch that mortal leader sucks, then you catch him and he is busy. Should be more leadership positions in the cabals to speak too. They then can weed out the good from the bad by giving more quests. > 7) Cf can get so boring at times when your still levelling up. > solution...... Make it so your moves dont run out every 10 seconds forcing you to sleep. > 8) Dawn is a stupid cabal, it seems to have no purpose > solution....Bring back knights or some cabal other than Dawn. > 9) Cabal choice is so unven, not many people are encouraged to apply for entropy and scarab. > solution....The former, let a mortal induct, i am sure there is some roleplay way of letting this happen, use your imagination imms. The later, Hard roleplay requirements for little payout until hero. Bring in some lower level powers to bring the people. > 10) Arbiters turn people into wimps, because you cant stand up to hero guards unless your hero. I hate this. Plus, why should there be only 1 punishment (Death) for all crimes. > solution....Have various punishments such as gold fines and Something like a whipping :P Where you have like minus stats for 200 hours before it heals
