Good or Bad suggestion? Let me know.

Post by Sir Dan »

I understand the shards perspective on the accuracy of the 2ta era, but why do most subtle, lets call them "mistakes," get rewritten immediately, even if the switch is an agreeable atrocity? The creative side is shown in the tournaments (to whoever made them, props), player run towns, etc. It's nice to have a little originality, some spice if you will.



P.S.

Who liked the ability to see their murder counts?

They get fixed fast because they are usually easy fixes.

I liked being able to see murder counts, but I also like accuracy. It's a tough one for me.

This is exactly what it is. If an accuracy issue than I can fix in less than two minutes, and that effects nothing else and is indisputable, I try to fix it immediately. Other more complex issues that effect other things even when clearly wrong sometimes just take more time to get to.

The events took an ungodly amount of time in total to write, but were mostly written before we opened.

If I don't have to macro any murder counts off, I shut my computer. A few words telling me how many counts is helpful and convenient, and improved.

Yet inaccurate, PKs already have it easy enough these days...try keeping count now, a simple notpad textfile would do.

Hemperor I think we've all had enough of people using Third Party Programs to get an edge over other players.

Why not just remove statloss, that's awfully convenient.

This is why accuracy is key, concessions being made usually leads to more concessions being asked for. Also it still tells you if you're in statloss or not, so unless you normally macro counts off for an extremely long period of time without being able to check your computer, its not that big of a detriment.

AGREED

There should be a KillCount for how many different players someone has killed on MYUOSA, so that people can still flaunt how much they PWNZOR.

Seems that everyone agrees with the ability to see your counts. Whats the point of suggestions other than to improve the shard by listening our opinions?

I would say... era accuracy, would be an accurate reason to not see them. If everyone agrees neon colors should be readily available, doesn't mean it's a good idea.

Not to say this is to the extreme of what you're suggesting, however, depends on how much accuracy they want.

People always say that [Your Era Accurate Suggestion Here] is unimportant because it doesn't really do anything but make things less convenient and then people tell that person that it must be in because it is era accurate, then that person makes a few more posts in objection to it then that person gives up, you wont last past another post.
