    Dookey, i do agree partially with you on the economy. People would be more inclined to get their items verses buying them. The timers would not apply toward cash loots just no drop stuff... farming cash/getting exp is part of the game i think everyone expects when they sign up to play an mmorpg...

    Who would be prevented? The mob doesnt incur a timer the ppeople that killed it do. And to say giving a fresh group the opportunity to kill a mob, that they realisticly currently dont have, is horrible logic. I may be misunderstanding you, please expand on your comment. Edit: After re-reading I...

    Regardless of good monk or bad monk, this example of a good mob for fresh 65s has shown that this isnt a good example. I really dont see the issue with upgrading the loot code to put timers on characters making it a viable option to increase the spawn timers, which would allow people the...

    I will counter your counter argument :p I keep referring to non-alt new chars, your sk doesnt count :) I agree that the keys are obtainable. I have 4 sets of them... As far as the people will quit killing the mobs, i know of at least one monk that gets bored, goes and runs through to the named...

    Bottlenecking Progress.

    Solo, your wager is duly noted, but i have to disagree on the numbers vs time. When i picked sod 3-4 years ago it was because a competing server (name intentionally left out) only had 250 players at peak. That server now has 300 showing an increase. Most other servers from 3 years ago have...

    Phrog, i dont see your post as a troll, instead a VERY legitimate point. First timers do not get quite the opportunity to get by on their own effort... Its simply not possible to, and not because they cant kill the mobs in their tier, more so because they arent given the chance. I think if we at...

    Shimone, I think you bring up a perfect example of the issue. While someone like me or you know we can track out cmal and come back the next day, but thats looking at two people that are already dedicated to the game. A fresh 55 (because cmal 1 is doable at that point) looks at this in a...

    Bottlenecking Progress.

    First let me clear up a couple of my points... 1) I was not saying it was Quila (and actually spoke with her in IRC about it. She saw Aradyn pop into the zone while she was there, when I was porting out my track bot...well after the fact). But this is not the first time I have ever seen this...

    Bottlenecking Progress.

    Hmm odd because I was in game when one of the GM's made a MOTD comment and had an hour long talk about how the donation money is often used for ad's to recruit on google, and other websites. As far as the cheating goes, I'm not the only one on the server that knows about it, and I could...

    Rorne, Your winning the lottery comment, no I don't expect to win it... That's why I retired by other means (at the age of 29 without mommy and daddy's help, or without living in their basement playing SoD all day) thankyouverymuch. Finding solutions to the problem generally works much better...

    Bottlenecking Progress.

    Heck, I even thought of a different solution, why not put flags on people that do something to the nature of: If anyone out of group/raid has killed mob Z in X ammount of hours, no loot is presented for anyone? It will prevent people from running chars through the same mob over and over...

    Bottlenecking Progress.

    This post is not about pointing out a particular person or guild. I have learned over time, the GM's are well aware of what goes on, and when they chose to or chose not to turn a blind eye is their call. I am not calling out anyone here (I have intentionally left names/guilds out of this) and if...

    Bottlenecking Progress.

    Oh I'm well versed in how to track mobs as far as the points in the thread are concerned, but I don't think the same tactics applied in what I have been noticing lately. I will use Ancient Tarlisha as a perfect example. Her trash does not spawn with her, so using the same reasoning that you...

    Bottlenecking Progress.

    (Yes this is another post requesting a change to the spawn timers). Why is it after every "game enhancing quest," the game seems to get more miserable for the lower 90% of the players, while the upper 10% get items that most just bank to never use? Almost every (non-18 man) named mob I...

    Aug Kit revamp

    Even better suggestion, why not remove the 1000 jam up mobs in the game that cause so many of us to hoard this junk? I look at Aradyn's bank and agree, I would love to finish these quests so I can quit hoarding stuff... Then I wouldn't need to keep looking at all this junk in the bank in hopes...

    Things I wish to get added to Fomelo

    This may be an odd request, but any way to link multiple characters together on fomelo? A pop up tab that lets the owner of certain characters add in his/her alternate characters?

    100-Dose Potions

    Not sure if this would help in the idea's section, but why not do the regeants combine first before doing the potions? IE for Body by Rekaj, combine 10x Alcoholic Broths to create "A Large Batch of Alcoholic Broths", then combine 5x Large batches to make "An Extremely Large Batch of Alcoholic...

    Server Low Numbers Bonus

    I notice the sever experiences a HUGE decrease in player numbers (around 94 online and lucky if even 40 of those are not AFK) right around the lag spot in the morning. Could something be implemented to increase productivity for those willing to bear out the endless hours of LFG during this time...

    Secondary Char Lock

    So yes, I know char lock already exists. Hear me out on this idea though. Problem: In the past I have tried using it and I have tried to lock all of my characters (I have personally played up 7+ 65's) + multiple banker bots. On occasion I forget to lock one of them on log out. Because I...
