Suggestion to servers

#1 12-31-2003, 03:30 PM

too often do i get stuck in a zone that is down or broken and can't log on, so i would like to suggest that servers allow everybody to use #movechar for these situations. Frustrating not being able to play when there's no GMs on.

This is a good idea for alot of semi-legit servers, not for legit servers though.

The bad thing about this is people can move other peoples characters aswell, so it would do more bad than it would good.

and they can move the chars to somewhere so they can do the raid/group faster or go to Plane of Hate or Fear with no stone :\ something like that

But on legit servers, it does suck when there's no GM available to help for several hours, and your main is stuck under South Ro :cry:

It is possible to set the character move so that one can only move characters, that are on their account. Which is perfect for legit servers. Dynasty legit i know has this implemented. Though Dynasty allows #zone so we dont see the problems of people using char move for accessing zones that cant reach. Though i can see where it could be a problem but i still support the idea of account based moving , to many times on the emu these days where that happens without gms on.

That's just a hack fix. Much better ways to fix it.

on my server, you're able to #movechar at zero access levels.. players haven't messed with this function and have appreciated being able to fix their characters themselves.

lol maybe a #stuck command for legit servers, that moves you to a
" safe " zone. like arena.

actualy a good idea, only issue I see is if you cant log onto the char thats stuck. So a #stuck (charname) so you can log onto an alt to use it

But then what if you were in a location that were easy to get to but tedious....Like Qeynos to Freeport the hard way. (Can't give a better example b/c I don't know where the Arena geographically is.)

you would need to go back there

better a 30 min run again then waiting days to even be able to log onto the char.

Or even better, the Dynasty solution.

people dont know where the arena is geographically? sad sad indeed.

I found it SHOCKING on live servers that people who were above level 60 did NOT know where Oasis, Kithicor, Rivervale, and South Karana were.....or Befallen...I was simply in a state of shock

Well excuse me for not being a PVPer.....But I DO know where those other zones are and am so used to some of them that navagating thro them is second nature.

Arena is located inside of lake rathe.

Far away from anything...it would be a toss up solution, sure you can unstick yer char..BUT you have a hell of a run to get anywhere
