No, no feedback. However, I plan to post them when the character dies, and comment on each.

I try to read others' descriptions as well, and note things like eye color and complexion, these are useful to know because you can mention them in conversation later. Reread sometimes too. To be honest, I don't like many of the descriptions I've seen... and especially dislike when they are overdone, as long (10+ lines) descriptions make me stagger and I actually remember less of them.

Inadequacy. Why I suck and when do you know you suck.

twistedvoid February 14, 2011 01:08PM

Just so you know how it's... going.

twistedvoid February 20, 2011 05:13PM

8 deaths and counting and still not lvl 20... (n/t)

twistedvoid February 21, 2011 12:47AM

Well, have you learned anything, and if not, why not?

ExPaladin(VIP) February 21, 2011 02:54AM

Try looking in directions before you walk when exploring new areas.

Matrik February 20, 2011 05:51PM

Look all is a timesaver

Murphy February 20, 2011 08:18PM

Deathtraps you pretty much learn the hard way.

wrathpuppet February 20, 2011 05:41PM

Oh, and that was death #5 and not even lvl 20 yet (n/t)

twistedvoid February 20, 2011 05:17PM

Your role could play a part

NiceGuy February 15, 2011 08:31PM

My roles and a thank you to all who've replied.

twistedvoid February 16, 2011 10:36AM

One more thing

Matrik February 16, 2011 10:49AM

I agree with this.

Batman February 16, 2011 03:39AM

I feel for you..

thinhallen February 15, 2011 04:20AM

Here is some advice from another compulsive deleter:

semi_newbie February 15, 2011 12:28AM

Here, perfect example of what I really mean by SUCK. A not so perfect match...

twistedvoid February 14, 2011 10:28PM

I don't see what you're getting at here. nT

Batman February 15, 2011 03:03AM

That's pretty normal.

DurNominator(VIP) February 14, 2011 10:59PM

Actually...he doesn't track. (n/t)

shane February 15, 2011 02:15AM

You're playing a thief as if it were a warrior.

eric February 14, 2011 10:55PM

I too had these troubles for many years and here is my advice

xrajck February 14, 2011 09:22PM

There's a problem you didn't note

Murphy February 17, 2011 08:24PM

Then make your role be the non-cookie cutter part. A Twist follower in Battle. An Enlilth follower in Fort, etc etc etc. NT

Sam February 18, 2011 08:01AM

Hah! I've yet to try any of the religions. (n/t)

Murphy February 20, 2011 07:50PM

Great post nt (n/t)

Oldril February 16, 2011 11:10AM

This post is superb, Xrajck.

Ghandi Martini February 15, 2011 04:05AM

My advice (AKA trash pulled from the bin and dusted off)

Matrik February 14, 2011 07:40PM

Tried your bard suggestion...

twistedvoid February 14, 2011 09:48PM

That doesn't count as trying.

DurNominator(VIP) February 14, 2011 10:18PM

I have this thing about inauspicous starts to a character. Not like trip and dirt are hard to figure out. (n/t)

twistedvoid February 14, 2011 10:37PM

No, he's right. If you only went to level five and died - You didn't even try/doanything.

Batman February 15, 2011 03:16AM

Never delete, play till con death (n/t)

hopelessdwarf February 14, 2011 07:20PM

Ohhhhh. That's some serious trouble

Murphy February 14, 2011 07:14PM

I can answer that...

twistedvoid February 14, 2011 07:49PM

Changing descriptions

Matrik February 14, 2011 07:32PM

I read all descriptions if I have the time.

Stevers February 15, 2011 07:00AM

Do your same two lines include "This gnome stands three feet tall" in the beginning?

DurNominator(VIP) February 15, 2011 04:33AM

You forgot that line about being well-muscled.

Murphy February 15, 2011 09:31PM

I don't play gnomes, so no.

Matrik February 15, 2011 07:35AM

Then we can spot your characters by looking at the desc

DurNominator(VIP) February 15, 2011 09:03AM

Good thing I'm not a robot...

Matrik February 15, 2011 09:12AM

I generally do re/reread/rewrite, but if it's one of those multiple paragraph ones....NT

Batman February 15, 2011 03:29AM

Re: Changing descriptions

Murphy February 14, 2011 07:52PM

Some IMMs like it.

briartangle February 14, 2011 07:45PM

I sent you a PM. We can perma, because I'm a badass like that. (n/t)

BattleCharmed February 14, 2011 05:37PM

Re: Inadequacy. Why I suck and when do you know you suck.

Isildur(VIP) February 14, 2011 04:36PM

We should repost the shop prep part of Isildur's post.

daurwyn(VIP) February 14, 2011 02:17PM

If you want help just ask.

The Forsaken(VIP) February 14, 2011 02:16PM

This sir, is against the rules. (n/t)

BattleCharmed February 14, 2011 05:32PM

Not really. We're not gaming the system to gain a competitive advantage.

The Forsaken(VIP) February 15, 2011 04:55AM

Umm yea, I got banned once years ago for helping 2 of my RL friends learn the game. (n/t)

twistedvoid February 14, 2011 06:41PM

Fuck that shit.

briartangle February 14, 2011 06:50PM

We were all on my network (same IP) and I handed one a dagger... banned for cheating. (n/t)

twistedvoid February 14, 2011 07:36PM

That's a little different.

briartangle February 14, 2011 07:46PM

Actually...

twistedvoid February 14, 2011 08:41PM

oops, lag double post (n/t)

twistedvoid February 14, 2011 08:41PM

I never delete

wrathpuppet February 14, 2011 01:58PM

I delete when (... and some tips)

Nightchild February 14, 2011 01:24PM

Oh and Elves have no ass and EVERYONE wields iron. n/t (n/t)

twistedvoid February 14, 2011 01:55PM

Thot bout that but...
