2) One of my best friends constantly says how he misses the White Tower - not because of the story behind it, or the special things in it, but the pure fact it was the newbie showdown place of the mud - you could guarantee that a majority of players were there in the ranks of 15-20 and group fighting was common there. In the ranks of 15-20, there are a lot more options but a less occurance of group on group fighting. Ranking, for the most part, can be done in complete silence if you find a non-common area or an area far away (Akan is a great example of a neat place but horrible location for newbies. Too far away, too many movement early on, and too far if you die. I've seen newbies who die there just delete because of it.) - and that becomes a grind (and ranking is a LOT slower here compared to other muds. Yes, it builds character but how many times did your parents say that to you before you hated it?). I love the fact that groups bump into each other and we need more of it early on - groups in high levels is depressing because it's never really even. Level 15-20, you really only have a few options but those options matter in fights and I think that ability to group fight and pk consistenly near a town makes for great training for newbies in playerkilling. It'd also give people the enjoyment they want early-on and I hear it was faster ranking then today - when you've played level 40+, level 1-20 becomes a huge pain nowadays with all the practicing required


I totally disagree with you here. As far as PK bait area are concerned nothing beats the past.. huge area massive xp drain..one way out. Too poor to invest in potions.. you end up getting hammered hard. As far as White tower is concerned yes I miss it.. but just for the easy leveling. But imms are trying to get away from certain nonstock areas or areas that were just not meshing with cfs world. White tower made no sense in CF since most of the mages in CF are male. Not to mention the area itself sucked, did you ever read the room desc and mob descs?
Anywoo.. thats my 2 rupees
