Little Mad

Postby Goharo » Apr 14, 2004 (10:11 am)

Shunned [racial trait]
Generally unwelcome in civilized society, and having a certain smell
and color, goblins stick out in a crowd like a sore thumb and are
often eyed carefully by untrusting eyes. This unwelcome attention
puts Goblins at a disadvantage when trying to lie low or steal.


That being said. Only reason I didnt post about this before is cause I wanted to give it a chance and see how it worked out. I rather dislike this and my other racial trait, and i really dislike how they just appear outta no where. This really makes being a goblin theif rather pointless. I get caught stealing from people with zero in any skill that would catch me. And not on my like third grab i am being caught red handed first time. I dunno what if anything can be done about this but this really sucks cause I was a goblin a long time before this crap just poped up one day.

This poor guy gets caught in my pockets and I have no spot skill at all and 0 (1%) in Listen. AND I see him hide every time AND can search and find him every time. Not exactly something one of the higher level Thieves should have to worry about.

*pats Goharo on the back*

I feel for you. But now I think I may be able to steal from YOU :twisted:

This thread is really about two topics, so I'll reply as such:

(1) stealing is wack. For lack of a better explanation, it needs some fixes -- probably a small bug in the logic somewhere is causing the more skill you have to be counted against you instead of for you. This is called a "reverse logic" bug and it's one of the more common bugs (a simple greater than sign instead of a less than sign or a minus on one side of the equation instead of the other is all it takes to bring the whole thing down). Easy enough: it's on the list to fix.

(2) you don't like one of your racial traits. You're not happy that the traits were applied now instead of when we first went live. Well... sorry. You, like everyone else, had a chance to switch races (remember the RESELECT RACE command?) and all of the racial traits have been posted since the day they were released, so you've had ample time to consider changing to a race that does not have those traits. We will occasionally make decisions that you don't understand or don't agree with and while I sympathize with you and hope you'll enjoy the rest of the game for what it is, please understand that no one is 100% happy with everything 100% of the time. It's not possible. If you want, though, with the blessing of the rest of the community (any objections), I will let you choose a different race once and only once more. That's the only fair thing we can do, unless you have any other suggestions for us to consider.

Would he be the only one getting this chance? if so it wouldn't really be fair, after all he already got to change his guild (from ma to thief)

Was a while ago... much more than a month, and it's still available to any player who (a) hasn't done it yet and were around (b) before the racial trait additions. Therefore, if you've never done it, you're still entitled to be able to. Just type RESELECT RACE to begin.

You think we were going to just spring a bunch of racial traits on you guys and not allow you to switch out if you didn't like what you wound up with?

>reselect race confirm
You may not reselect your race. This option is only for characters who existed before the racial ability bonuses / penalties were finished.

And which character are you trying to do that with?

As far as I know, the command is (and has been) working fine for months. It can only be used with characters that were created before the racial traits were released.

Apparantly the command can no longer tell which characters are from before the changes- I tried tonight to change Vladim too and he was my first character from ages before the racial traits happened- and he is still the same race he started with- well half breed- was gonna make it full but got the same message as Titus! :(
