Tried that! Didn't work. I understand there are issues to prevent some from playing. It sure would be nice to get at least a whisper that says feed me... otherwise, is it someone who is having an issue or they just want that one to die?

The player probably doesn't like the town and habitually ignores that lit-up name. I personally don't get frustrated when someone starves, as I know the player is still playing in other parts of the world. I feel sad when a character dies of heart attack, as it means that we lose a player.

Ah, I feed for awhile, I understand life gets in the way sometimes. Not really frustrated... but it is sad.

What are the odds... one dies of a heart attack, then a newspawn in a totally different town, same name, same disability?

That's called Death-Step (???). A spell that only really high leveled necromancers can perform. The thing is, you die here, and through death you teleport to somewhere new where your body regenerates completely (at least till the state of decay you were when performing the spell, more or less).
:P

I have a feeling some players spawn characters with this pre-written idea of how their story will go.

I've seen a couple before and it's always hilarious seeing some newspawn who insists on RPing like some grim-dark tortured soul in the most cheery, laidback town. :lol:

Or they spawn and immediately start a crusade for or against something? You're like... you've read one note and know 2 people's names, maybe chill out a bit and work with the RP instead of interrupting the flow. :roll:

Because there's never anybody interrupting the flow in RL.

So... here's my annoying thing:

Shermy, by changing the Discord server, I can no longer access it because my account is unclaimed and I don't know my password. Although, that may be by design :)


So... you suck.

Of course, I am a rational, sentient person and as a scientist I am definitely not superstitious, at all, ever. No need to look past the logical explanation.

To all those (mostly newspawns) who played off the day 6666 - Argh! Blah! Rarh! *ran around throwing salt and touching wood and making evil signs on her forehead*
Reveal to me the mysteries
Can you tell me what it means?
Explain these motions and metaphors
Unlock these secrets in me
Describe the vision, the meaning is missing
Won't anybody listen?

I felt a bit disappointed when I didn't see anything special on day 6666.

Maybe we have to wait now for the day 9999.
