Title: One alt at a time...
Post by Tetsusaiga on 12/19/03 at 19:10:46
What if only one Alt would be allowed at a time?  Needless to say much less lag...and forcing people to work together.  Can't beat the Demonic General with one arch fighter stocked with pots....although a paci might be able to pull it off.  Most certanly would piss people off in the Pking department..cept for mages and theives, they would get some real fun out of it..maybe druids too, but they fizzle to much.  Just posting this to take up some of the 2 weeks that i'll be sitting here.

it's not fair to everyone who hasn't had the 2 years of 'as many alts as possible!' gameplay... personally i think 1 alt at a time is neccessary for the game, but not in this way...

I've tried to point out the benefits of a one-alt limit in the past, but it'd never get implemented purely because the majority of the players are weenies.

However, I'm still waiting to see the admins' official stance on dognapot's suggestion (http://www.nightmist-online.co.uk/cgi-bin/YaBB/YaBB.pl?board=Suggestions2;action=display;num=1070864562;start=0#0).

This is, of course, not a smart idea.
As Oracle once put it, "The point of the game is to keep people here, not to drive them away."


(It went something like that, not exact words but same idea.

Not trying to bash the idea or anything, but it would suck in a way. People have alts to help them out on certain quests or trips to help them train lower lvls. (or they use them to pk '1' player ::)) But to me I dont think it'll be such a good idea.

The only people it would get rid of are those sad annoyances with no skill. I for one wouldn't be bothered with that.

Yet another stupid post. I seem to remember JLH saying that the game is too easy to level up in, so saying 'this wouldn't work because it would make it harder for people to power level their low levels' is plain retarded.

How is this a problem? It creates teamwork, which is something that this game lacks. Granted, monsters would need a little chaning, but one alt would be far better.

The topic has been overdiscussed.  Refer to Dognapot's thread for this idea.
