#4820, "RE: Another subject on the same idea.."
Edited on Thu 17-Jun-04 07:19 PM

  

          

The only 'reasons' I have for trying to propose this change is the fact that its a massive annoyance. I haven't EVER hero'd a character at 80 hours. This is not to say it can't be done, but one without OOC connections spends amples amount of time trying to find a group.. then ranking.. then keeping the group etc. The only facts I have to support this is that I do not know anyone with my attention span when it comes to these sort of things. Many people have been saying, on both the official and non-official, about the 'degrade of the playerbase'. I think this is one of the reasons.

I can't tell you how many times I've wanted to do some sneat RP shiz, but only to think that I'm gonna have to spend weeks attempting to hero my way up the ranks. I think this is a major obstacle that should maybe be levy'd a little bit. I'm not asking for 40 hour ranking.. I'm asking for maybe 1/3'd of what it is. So if somethign is worth 500 exp, make it worth 800. Something small like that, may very well change this game for the better. I know alot of the complaints for NEWBIE newbie's is that the ranking just takes too damn long. I think it's very possible to find a good mix of the burden of ranking now and chugging up the ranks without a problem. What would make this easier for me to propose would be for the immortal's to post why ranking is the way it is now.. which I'll be able to respond to and hopefully we can get something going =P

Thanks for responding
