#63903, "Newbie banner"


          

Inspired by Destuvius' comments for Necro. Why don't we have visible "Newbie" banner of sorts for people who choose "I'm new to MUDs" when creating a character?

This would certainly stop some (if not all) of us from curbstomping said characters in low/mid levels.

Of course some people would abuse that to have easier lowlevels, but anyway that would work like "Dudes please just back off I don't want to take part in your bloodbath on lowlevels" banner.

If you choose this it needs to come with some drawbacks though. People would pick the option to avoid being pkd and for people to underestimate them.

Make that you attack two people without dying immediately afterwards.
