No point wasting another bit of space so every single character can have "handsome" and "beautiful".

Nalzaxx was never good looking. :)

And Drethek was a middle aged fat bald guy.

And i kept Drethek that way even though it wasn't how i first pictured him.

Come on, you shouldn't have complete control over whether your char is a supermodel or not, no one in real life does.

super model is one thing..but when you are trying to play a skinny gaunt looking teenager that seems to not have eaten well most of his life..that role play is a bit turned of by clicking on him and reading fat elderly man.

Well then it's the po's fault for setting a high age and weight. In fact, my 23 year old human appears as "very young", so I don't see how anyone could possibly make a teenager appear as an elderly man.

I don't see why anyone should be at "fault" or why it is you think all situations call for blame. At least for over three years those features didn't matter, hell either Arameh or Stephen one said that they had indeed a 300lb knight, im sure that never appeared in a #me. All i'm saying is that when new features are implemented, adaptive transitioning could be considered.

If you say "Oh, height and weight have no effect right now, so I won't care what I put them as", then yes, it's your fault for being lazy, or taking the piss by putting max weight or something. If you want it changed, Nitram already said you can contact him to allow a height/weight/age changing on your account.

The smartest thing ive seen you type ever.

I've always considered height and weight for rp reasons and because it would be added in later on. If its in the selection menu, its worth noting and paying attention to, implemented or not.

it would be like saying STRENGTH IS NOT IMPLEMENTED YET, SO I WILL PUT 0 STRENGTH AND USE MY POINTS IN AGILITY

and then my friend, you'd end up with a 300lb knight who can move like goku and swing a plastic sword like a baby.
