Subject: SV: [EverQuest] Gaming Death


If i got a clerc that would tell the group they will bail as soon as things
starts to look bad i would just stick around and wait for a real clerc. The
game is dull when played safe, the game is actually fun when played towards
the limits of what can be done.

I absolutely hate game death and try to avoid it whenever possible. I let
people know right off that if I think I am going to get killed I will flee.
A dead cleric isn't very helpful. Especially since I only have a 21.6k
connection and we're talking about waiting 5 or more minutes to reload from
death. When my mother is playing also, my zoning like that can cause her to
lag very badly. If she has to zone or gets killed then one or both of us get
booted offline. And I lose alot of xp. So that isn't fun.
luv,
