Lou Anne Burgess Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Sorry Doctor Troll, Good Alice, I wasn't trying to slam anyone. I was just looking back at Alice/Dreamer's recent posts & trying to address points she brought up. Lou Anne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Fox Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 I've just started reading the 2008 forums so I wasn't around for all of your discussion and votes. Just started reading this tonight in fact, and was intrigued. Not sure if I want to join yet or not.So, from a totally outside perspective, I wouldn't much want to join a game a year, or two years from now where the vast majority of the characters were much higher power levels than me. On the other hand, it also wouldn't be fair for a starting character to have the same power level of folks that have been around for the whole time working for the xp they have.Nor, were I playing would I want to start completely over from scratch after two years of work on a character that died.So you might consider a compromise.Perhaps, after the start of the forums, new characters get half the exp of old characters. That way, the folks that have been playing a long time get rewarded, and the new folks aren't intimidated by drastic difference in power levels.Just a thought from an outside perspective.

SuperCav Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I think that the way it's set, where you always start off at the bottom, is a good idea. After all, one shouldn't step into something without knowing full well what they are doing.If you don't want your character to kick the bucket, simply put, pick a safe career. Otherwise there will ALWAYS be that chance you won't be seeing another sunrise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise there will ALWAYS be that chance you won't be seeing another sunrise. As novas, is there really any such thing? And, even should you choose a safe career, there are always anti-nova groups who may pick you out of a crowd simply because you've attempted to "fit in" or even hide what you are.I'm in agreement with Mr. Fox. I believe a compromise with respect to character death would be appropriate (a percentage of their original character's experience, perhaps?), with completely new characters beginning at a decidedly lower level of experience than the average.

TeleForce Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Was this not already decided on and dealt with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperCav Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 I went through this thread, and I didn't catch any resolution. So I was just offering my two cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
