Title: people taking advantage of the crit restorer Post by Lavalamp And Seito on 01/04/04 at 08:01:17 becca here.. i have noticed in game many ppl taking the names of deleted crits for the pure purpose of annoying the ppl who want to restore them, in some cases the crits were deleted by a spiteful account partner or whatever... what gets me is that by doing this the original owner loses everything, which isnt fair and defeats the purpose of the restorer, so im suggesting that even if the new crit is over lvl 10, that it gets a free rename when the original owner wants to restore their crit. think of the people who have deleted crits with expensive items and all their gold on etc, with the new people training the crits up(as expected) they lose a lot and in my opinion would make them feel like quitting because of a mean person taking away all that they have worked for. i am just feeling sympathetic for those people as i am lucky enough that it isnt happening to me. Anyway i just thought i would put my two cents in to try and make nightmist a more happy place for everyone to interchange so to speak because so far in my year of playing i have very little to criticise and i want to keep it that way for everyone else. As i said, my two cents, flame if u want.. ur perogative and it doesnt mean anything to me :P **Edit**punctuation and spelling ::) |

Title: Re: people taking advantage of the crit restorer Post by alone on 01/04/04 at 10:36:12 It was suggested before that once a name's been deleted it's untakable for another month, the case was brought up by Draken Malhavok I believe, and I think JLH liked the idea too. |

Title: Re: people taking advantage of the crit restorer Post by Pandilex on 01/04/04 at 10:45:00 JLH renames the existing characters, so you get your name(s) back. |

Title: Re: people taking advantage of the crit restorer Post by Nemesis on 01/04/04 at 19:24:04 but if the crit is restored, it shouldnt get back its gold/items? otherwise ppl would say i had 15 mil, n a csotw, n all the good equip. it just gets the crit back with stats, n lvl etc. nothing else. n wouldnt it be kind of unfair to those ppl who have crit names, just one day for it to be changed, and having to redo their entire friend list? i mean, about 6 months ago i got the crit Nemesis, but aparently about 3 months before, that crit had existed, and i got flamed by the 'aparent' previous owner, who gave up in the end. why did he flame me, then he had 3 months to get the name back?? i dont think an idea like this shud go ahead, if a crit is restored, it should be under a different name if the crit name is already taken, unless of course the crit is still lvl 1. |

Title: Re: people taking advantage of the crit restorer Post by Morph on 01/04/04 at 19:26:32 I agree...the crit that gets restored should get a different name. It's his fault for letting it get deleted. |

Title: Re: people taking advantage of the crit restorer Post by Jurian on 01/04/04 at 19:36:20 yep restored crits needs to be renamed and deleted crit should get all the armor back and stuff that was on it (i'm pretty sure that that info is still somewhere on the server) |

Title: Re: people taking advantage of the crit restorer Post by JLH on 01/04/04 at 20:00:25 a restored character is exactly like it was when it was deleted with one exception, it is removed from the clan (if it is in one). i have yet to decide what to do about crit restoring where the name is taken and the current owner is of high level. |

Title: Re: people taking advantage of the crit restorer Post by BadAngel on 01/06/04 at 18:47:45 It would seem fair to give the new owner of the name a free name change if the crit is high level. It could default to example JLH2 when the original JLH is restored. Perhaps with a memo attached saying 'this was a deleted name' please choose another no charge. |

Title: Re: people taking advantage of the crit restorer Post by Time on 01/07/04 at 00:01:00 I still don't see the point. If someone deletes a crit on purpose, wtf should they get it back? I can understand where it could be deleted due to inctivity, but tht is another issue. I dont see where giving more power to users is going to cause less stress for staff. :-/ |

Title: Re: people taking advantage of the crit restorer Post by Lavalamp And Seito on 01/07/04 at 05:06:00 ah, but you see, more crits, more players. more players, more happiness because the game is expanding.. and as JLH said on the announcement forum, there isnt going to be serious lag until we get like 500+ users. basically, i love this game and i want to see it expand and this is a way of going about it |

Title: Re: people taking advantage of the crit restorer Post by Time on 01/07/04 at 06:34:53 In a way though, its just the same as saying something like - I gave my crit to so-n-so 6 months ago, now I want it back, then clickedy click and its back in my acct. That is probably hard to understand, but its a basic drift of what I'm trying to explain. |

Title: Re: people taking advantage of the crit restorer Post by Mimic on 01/07/04 at 09:10:46 The point of it is that if you gave someone your password and they deleted your crits then you can get the crits back. It just happens that all others fall in it as well because staff doesnt have the time to look at the case. I do think that a restored crit should get the name change not the one who got the name when it was free. That is unfair if i wait and wait for a name to come free because it has been the name i have always used in everyother chat house or mud game then i should be allowed to keep it. No matter what reason the crit was deleted. If the person wants it back they will have to then wait untill i leave the game or delete the crit. |

Title: Re: people taking advantage of the crit restorer Post by Claw on 01/07/04 at 13:42:48 I think they should get their name back. lets have another case, what if you went out of town for the summer? you were gone 3 months and your acct was deleted due to inactivity, there was nothing you could do about it. So I think they should get their names back. |

Title: Re: people taking advantage of the crit restorer Post by Chaos on 01/07/04 at 14:57:27 meh, I think the first character with the name should get their name back, and give the current players with the name a free name change, although if you DeLeTeD the character.... maybe the old character should have the name change, because if you deleted it you could always go roll a lvl 1 to keep the name, but they didn't... so they must not have wanted it to bad... (wow, what a run on) |
