Instead of standing on a soapbox and telling you what I've learned about the immstaff in my interactions, I thought I'd let everyone make their own conclusions based on this montage of quotes. (note: I selected the quotes myself, I do not promise they're in context)
<br>
<br>An Immortal says 'We're going to need to rename you.'
<br>An Immortal says 'You see,Daros is the leading 2-stroke piston-ring producer in the world.'
<br>You say 'is that a joke? or do you really want to rename me?'
<br>An Immortal says 'I'm completely serious.'
<br>An Immortal says 'We, too, can use google.'
<br>An Immortal says 'If you google your own name you'll find nearly 2 million hits.'
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>An Immortal tells you 'The Daros was an ancient civilization as well.'
<br>You tell an Immortal 'Daros is an ancient civilization if you're speaking a non-english language'
<br>An Immortal tells you 'We are an international game.'
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>You tell an Immortal 'but I REALLY would like my old familiar back. It's making this character really suck hard for me'
<br>
<br>(tells me to email
imps@carrionfields.com so the imps can vote. Here's the email and response)
<br>
<br>So if it's possible, without any major work, to get me a homonculous like my character origionally had.. could it get done? All that would be required (if I'm not mistaken) is to ping-pong toggle my name back and forth while my familiar is standing in front of me. It should change every time, and when it lands on homonculous I'd be all set to go.
<br>Cheers-
<br>Mundolph (Daros)
<br>Zulghinlour: From a code standpoint this would be major work, and I don’t see it happening.
<br>Zulghinlour: Ping-ponging your name around so that you get what you want is also not going to happen.
<br>
<br>You tell an Immortal 'do you administer this google search to every name?'
<br>An Immortal tells you 'Most of them, yes.'
<br>An Immortal tells you 'But, that has been brought up on the boards if you wish to read up on that.'
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>An Immortal tells you 'Nearly 2 million hits, most of them in regards to this civilization is plenty of evidence to the contrary.'
<br>You pray (by the way. Gaspar is 10 million hits). He's a kingping and guild leader.
<br>An Immortal tells you 'Again, that is on the boards as to how some names don't get caught in time.'
<br>
<br>
<br>(anyone know where to find this information on the boards? My searches come up empty)
