DEAD BODIES ARE REALLY GREAT PROBLEM!!

Something must be done withit. I've added this to flyspray http://www.cantr.net/flyspray/?do=details&id=172 and nothing happened, even if there are few solutions.

example:
If there dead bodies of characters younger than 21 years will not apper in objects tab, then there will not be such problem, because most of dead bodies are from characters of players who just look at the game and don't login anymore. There should be exceptions from that when someone was killed or body have any wearable items.


WE CANNOT DEVELOP NORMALLY, HALF OF POPULATION DO NOTHING BUT BURYING :!: :!: ... AND BURYING...

IT'S NOT FAIR

If it's that much effort, you just don't bury at all. That's what would happen in RL
Just because you're older, smarter, stronger, more talented... doesn't mean you're BETTER.

Yeah, and objects or projects (activity) page will load for ages!

There is translation of one post from Polish forum:

:P

And, anyways, wasn't there a rumour that the number of bodies might have some link to sickness?

It even bogs down the search function, doesn't it? Because the thousands of burial entries will clog the CPU.

Yes, we know about search function and we using it, but what if some players don't know how to use it? And if there will be more bodies then database will grown bigger and will be to slow. Other thing is that some players role play well and what they can say about place if there is a lot of bodies and unfinished burial projects? That make them sick!

We have lots of space on polish islands,
if you wanna see what is a problem please sign in and walk around,
and you will see that waiting for a few minutes for some page to open is not fun.

Also, I counted that dead bodies in polish section takes about 5% of all characters in the game.
So we are talking about lots of space in database and lots of bandwidth used just to show us all ded bodies.

5%? In big locations there is 100% or more! (if you count undinished burial projects too). And how many of live characters is avtive? I bet that more then 50% of them will soon be dead bodies too.

I mean 5% of characters in the game, not in polish section.
but after some recalculations I think it may be up to 10%.
