You are kidding, right?
In a locked room you have a LOT of options. You can outdamage shaman (yes, pallys CAN do that); you can use orb of travel; you can have passdoor (phylactery of free movements); you can have some virtues that would save your ass.

But if you are HELD to #### for ####ing minutes, you have ZERO chances.

Don't play a fool, unless you are the one.

That IS abuse. I don't care for your excuses, but this instant-win button, and CF, for years, been getting rid of them. Charm person, mind control poison + maggots and other things were removed/nerfed.
This is the same.

Whine? If you call that a whine, okay. I do not really care. When I see a really good #### - I'm getting angry. Enough to say, during last 10 years of playing, I *never* posted anything like that. Not once.

There were ideas, suggestions and disagreements with imms, arguing and etc - but I never every complained about anything like that. And now I do.

And I have my holy right to do that, and I don't really care what will you say. I am totally correct here.

CF is a game where skill must give advantage, and not a win button.

See you in the fields.
