#13548, "RE: Here is my take on it"
|
Since its dirty laundry day around here, I'll respond to some of this below.
>Im not sure what the best way is but I do think that >annonymity isnt always the best. Take Yanacek for example, its >better if he remained anonymous. However his identiy was >betrayed by his own methods of unfair advantages which are >code related. Everyone knew about Yana and the #### hit the >fan when his main guns got changed upon deletion. Anonymity is >only good when #### happens that should not happen. If Sebeok >had changed the poisoners once he realised what was happening, >there would be no reason to be hiding. But he didnt. Hence >anonymity sort of hides his abuse.
I changed dozens of things with poisoners during my time playing that character, most of which were downgrades. What was changed after I agedeathed as far as I can tell was you can't suggest murder or nofollow (and maybe trustall?). I didn't then, and I don't now, think the ability to do those was bs or unfair. I can count on one finger how many "overpowered" and "ridiculous" poisoners there's ever been.
>I would love to see that kind of honesty from imms. I would >have loved have seen Sebeok say after deleting "Yah know, >while playing yanacek i realized that poisoners had some >overpowered stuff going on so I took a look at the code and >changed it, to see how it would pan out, while im playing such >a char."
I make changes to the code on a somewhat daily basis. Historically, a lot of this is based on what I've found in playing and watching. The same can be said by Drok and Valg and Zulg. Is my idea of overpowered different than theirs sometimes? Sure. Do I get outvoted on some things, sure. But believe it or not we're always trying to act in the game's best interest.
> >Why not give us some expert feedback on somes things. Hey, i >played this char and noticed X, it may be over/under powered. >Ill check it out, or i checked it out and decided to do this. >Thats what I want to see and im sure others would too. >
I'll try to do this more - I'm usually pretty good about announcing changes I make, if they're important.
>Play the game, enjoy it like everyone else does, be fair and >truthful with others and yourself, rely on your skill and >knowledge, not manipulation of ooc factors, share if you need >to, do not go out of your way not to share and you will not >need to be anonymous anymore.

I'm sure tons of people think I'm a liar or a cheater or whatever. I'd be lying if I said it wasn't discouraging, but I can answer any accusation you might throw at me. I've heard them all. Sometimes mistakes have been made, but most of this crap is absolutely ridiculous.
