One message is bothering you? Right, your attitude is just awful. What's more it's not just you. Most of your GM sidekicks are like that too. I have consistently noticed either a sickeningly condescending attitude like you just so well displayed Zak or a get out of my face I have all the computer po...

Wow, the GM abuse just doesn't stop here does it. I got an e-mail saying that my account was banned because of some nonsense about me being the player of an infamous character. I then PMed Zak, a GM I know to be troublesome from personal experience because I suspected him of abusing his powers again...

Additional suggestion:

-Fix the game so that you can shoot from higher levels like castle parapets
-range, damage, and accuracy should be doubled for shooting from a height

No, my test character had distance fighter's stats of course. It's not even worth using distance weapons in its only useable form right now to kill things like pigs where you have no chance to die because attacks from distance weapons are relatively so much weaker and to add to that cost lots of wor...

I haven't seen anyone using distance weapons, and after testing them out I know why. They simply don't work. The attack speed for all distance weapons is dead slow and the damage isn't enough to account for the fact that you are dead once your enemy approaches you because you can't parry very well w...

Why don't you just post your results from your testing of the attributes' effects here? That way you don't have to PM it 10 times and the devs can tell you if it is correct or not.

"Buying skills" or more roleplay appropriate "paying to be taught skills" is a good idea. It is realistic to have this feature because in normal circumstances people do not learn all the skills they possess by repetitively doing something over and over, instead they learn from be...

That powergaming rule means everyone who plays the game is a rulebreaker except those players who only use the game as a chatroom... wait they are rulebreakers too according to other rule which says that you can't use illarion as a chatroom. The rule about "cooperative roleplay" needs to b...

What? So either your e-mail about GM abuse is completely ignored for up to half a year or another GM who is probably the abusing GM's friend will look at your complaint and laugh about it? No wonder GMs abuse their powers in this game so much. The abusing GM who I am still not naming in order to giv...

Was this ever even looked into? I am bringing this topic back up because I think I was the victim of similar GM abuse of GM powers. I was accused of being "cheeky" whatever that means, and then snidely told that I was banned before I got a "You have been kicked" message. I was in...

It is not good for the ingame economy for most smiths to also be miners, which is the case currently. This proposal put into effect would encourage more smiths to just be smiths.

Proposal: Suggest that all smithed items made out of iron be able to be smelted into iron ingots using the smelting oven. Of course, iron is lost in the process of smelting so a helmet that used up 4 iron ingots should only be able to be melted down into 2 iron ingots. Reason: It makes sense, and it...

Money bags can be easily grabbed during the transfer from one pair of hands to another. This happens in real life - even purses are frequently torn away by thieves and wallets pickpocketed out of pockets. However, RL is beside the point here and the way things in this game are done should not always...

20 humans online right now and 5 non humans. This is what I regularly see, and it means that 80% of the ingame population is humans and all the other races (elves, dwarves, orcs, halflings etc) combined only adds up to 20%. I think that new players need to be encouraged more to play the other races,...

it is all RP though NOT using game mechanics (in other words, I believe both PO's should agree to the RP) Sorry, but I find your RP to be more suited to a online chatroom or purely text MUD than what is supposed to be a graphical online RPG. I play a graphical online RPG because I like the engine s...

I think that it is a good thing for races to have racial bonuses because it complements the fact that we have different races. The only thing I would propose is that the "unique talents" for each race be clearly defined and made available for new players. It is particularly important that ...

When you try to edit the settings for your character, all that appears is lines of code. You cannot edit the settings.

I see what you mean Jupiter, but my question about the technicalities of a dwarf being able to be a crafter better than other races as fitting with the racial backgrounds, remains unanswered.

Could someone from the technical staff give a definitive answer? Thank you.

Vern I disagree, the system doesn't have you "hand" things around, it has you drop them on the ground. So a thief snatching things from the ground is playing with the system not against it. Furthermore, oftentimes, especially when the trading is done in large numbers like say a pile of hun...

Most dwarves do not have easier access to iron and coal because most dwarves are not part of Silverbrand, especially new dwarves who need it the most.

Hello, I noticed that dwarves have a minimum of 2 dexterity and a maximum of only 17. However, according to the attribute explanations, dexterity is the determining factor for crafting. Now, from what I understand of racial backgrounds, dwarves are supposed to be master craftsmen and should be the o...

I wouldn't mind 15 minutes if it was fun, but it isn't. There is absolutely nothing to do except mindlessly pressing down on an arrow key and waiting till you can't move and pressing another arrow key.

I am getting nowhere with Siloli. All he will say is "I love ham...." or "I didn't steal any ham" What am I supposed to do? Edit, I am still in front of Siloli, and he is driving me insane! He keeps repeating the same things no matter what I say. I want to attack him at this poin...

Thank you Juniper, I will keep looking in the West woods then.

I have talked to Nicolas, but I cannot for the life of me find that thief he said went west. I have gone as far west as Greenbriar and walked three times back and forth to cover all the land between Greenbriar and the harbor. I see nothing - just an empty Eldan monastery and druid house. Please help!

I am afraid that the current existing portals are not enough at all to prevent long lengthy periods of mindless trekking. Portals only reach cities of which there are only 4 I think.

Hello, I have noticed that there are long tiresome expanses on the game map where there is nothing, no NPCs, no Players, no resources... just empty space. Honestly speaking, it is a pain and a bore to have to move your character over those long empty expanses, and I would much rather spend the time ...

So using a shield will not give you concussion skill?

What skills does Tihgaroc teach exactly?

I didn't have concussion skill to begin with. I have only used a sword and a shield. Now I have concussion skill for some reason.

Apparently, I got some concussion skill from completing the quest. But the wiki says you are supposed to get slashing skill. Could I have gotten concussion any other way? I haven't used anything but sword and shield.
