Subject: Re: Twinking = Diablo = UO


Well who is really to say what is considered twinking . . . I think we
should just play the game and let people do whatever. I would rather
discuss spells and stuff in this list than people getting mad cus JOE FRIDAY
has full plate or whatever. I don't really like twinking but it happens and
to BAN it seems weird kinda strict. There are too many scenerios. I mean
there is this friend of mine in real life and he plays more than I do and is
higher lvl and he gave me a cool Savant Cap and I like it. So should I be
banned? Dunno, but I'd rather talk about cool "in-game" stuff . . .
