1. Name 3 good things about the game you're playing.
a) Skill based game versus class based, making characters actually stimulates the brain.
b) Player accountability with the community, but that effect sometimes becomes negative, but is always interesting.
c) Open PvP. It can be harsh, but it keeps the blood pumping.
2. What is your in-game pet peeve?
Everyone wants to fight in Tos, the central city in the game. But if we spread ourselves out, we'd have less problems with interference in our fights. Yet for some reason we still cluster around certain spots and wonder why every fight attracts a crowd.
3. I dare you to tell me your most embarrassing moment!
When I died to a baby spider. Actually, it was a PvP fight and the other player had me beat, but the spider got the kill shot on me as it wandered by, so the server got a nice broadcast of ###Black Molly has been killed by a baby spider.
4. What do you think could be improve?
I dont think the Devs really need to do much of anything to 'improve' the game. At this point in the game's life, the only changes need to be done by the community. Most of the people who like to grief in this game could be ostracized and that would effectively eliminate them from the community. If no one was willing to interact with them, they wouldn't be able to PvP without becoming a murderer. And since they are pariahs, they would not recieve pardons and no one would trade with any of their alternate characters who might not be murderers. They'd essentially be driven off the server. And this isn't used in a bad way, to punish people or an ability wielded by the largest guild. For the effect to work, it would take 95% of the server, and there are only 2-3 assholes that 95% of the server agrees should go. Unfortunetly, most people think they can eliminate the griefers by fighting them, but that is what they want; attention.
This is a unique position for M59, that the player's hold enough sway over the game, I imagine similiar to ATITD, but I've never played in Egypt.
And I tag Loqieu if he hasn't been tagged already
