57609, That doesn't really answer the question.

You've repeatedly shot down ideas from players due to not wanting yet another thing the Imm Staff has to police, and yet you will waste hours reading and rewarding descriptions that some people only write because they are forced to? Why? What benefit is there? If every character of mine had a height, weight, sex, hair/eye/skin color description, does that hurt the game? More importantly, is it worth Imm time to police?

Perma-grouping affects other people in a negative way. Description... meh Sure, but hardly to the same extent. Multi-charing is really just the same thing.

I'm firmly in the camp that coming up with a description that will probably be read twice in the life span of the character (once by myself and once by an immortal that makes sure I have one) isn't worth the 10 minutes it takes to write one. It especially isn't worth it at level 10 when I haven't decided if I'm actually going to play it for 50 hours, or if the 1 I just put in is the end.

But then I don't really play anymore, so I guess my opinion doesn't really matter.
