Subject: Re: Survey....


I have to comment that I decline to respond to the questionnaire because I
don't like the choices - it is too black and white...

I don't kill-steal - and I don't think it is in the spirit of role-play.
And I also don't think it "ruins" the game. I think that simply there are
"problems" with the code as it is designed to determine who gets credit for
the kill. I think that minor not drastic changes are in order.

Regardless - you are a bit out of date in that Verant has acknowledged the
problem and will be addressing it. They stated (and I'm paraphrasing) that
the current system is such that it rewards solo over groups and they want to
change it to tilt towards group - since their philosophy of the game is to
promote grouping.

The way I see it - the main problem is that it only looks at damage against
the mob and doesn't incorporate the damage that the players receive...
