sorry about the wait, been a ***** of a week. that's fixed along with the red shield, crystal shield, and a few others.

I'm pretty sure there are lots of areas where that broad range of sizes can gain experience at a decent clip. Maybe marginally slower than the most popular one or two, but good enough to keep up. I'd bet that a new bashing area for bigs wouldn't resolve the problem, it'd replace the best one relegat...

I know summers are quiet, but that doesn't mean you have permission to set up an exp bot and walk away from your computer. Botting not only gives you an unfair advantage over other players who have invested their own time in their characters, it throws off the status size balance that's so difficult...

It's a popular concept that we've discussed in the past, among ourselves and with players. I don't think there's any reason why something like this wouldn't be feasible for Classic. Personally, my main concern is that it would be redundant with status. Given my understanding of the suggestions, it s...

I thought this was already clear, but obviously not. For the second time in two days, I've had to delete 25+ posts by one person that consisted of basically one-line spam necroing useless threads that were 6 months old at least. I don't have any interest in censorship, but when someone does this, it...

I wish the exp had not dropped like it did Based on a conversation, I believe this is referring to the elite mob exp nerf in September as opposed to the exp lock that was reverted soon after it was implemented (send me a pm and I'll edit this post if I'm wrong, Omicron). Since it isn't applicable a...

Talking **** and pussying out? For shame!

Is this a bug that's been reported to the support e-mail or discussed in the helpdesk forum? I've been busy, but I consistently check in on the mud once or twice a day, and I actually have no idea what you're talking about.

This is a re-post, and slight tweak, from what I posted on Facebook. Since evidently some of you kids are too good to be in the Facebook group, I will re-post it here. Btw, if you're not in the Facebook group, I essentially don't care about you as a player, or a person, but that's a side note. GET ...

We expected that the elite change would cause frustration. No one likes to see nerfs. However, to be clear, their status for the past 4-5 months since implementation has been something like an "unfinished project". They were intended to have more mechanics to increase the challenge and dan...

If you find yourself bugged, you can now have the executioner reset your base stats back to where they should be by typing "say fix me please". This generally applies to situations where your hitroll, damroll or AC aren't where they should be (2, 4, and 70 respectively) when you're dispell...

Down two bashing zones? As if the ridiculous amount of experience you've gotten for mowing down mobs meant for ~10k players wasn't good enough while it lasted? A flaw in the experience calculation has been fixed. Now instead of two unbalanced options being the best for anyone over 10k, you may find ...

I will likely increase the lineage gain from caps again sometime soon, because I've heard that a lot and it makes sense. However, just so you understand my rationale, one of the fundamental goals of the new feature was to encourage intra-clan activity and recruitment. Snapping up newbies, equipping ...

If you show up and no one else does, you win. If someone else shows up and you cap them more than they cap you, you win. If you compete against more clans and win, you win more prestige than otherwise. If you only gained prestige when there were opponents in the battleground, it would give players a...

Due to a few remaining issues and our inability to address them this weekend, the battleground has been temporarily disabled. You can expect it to return Sunday evening.

Some changes today: Beast will no longer be affected by battleground decaps. Mudwide battleground broadcasts can now be filtered with the channels command ('chan -battleground, chan +battleground'). Battleground decaps now award 12 lineage, up from 6. Entering a different arena after a cap midway th...

A King of the Hill-style battleground is now live. It opens every two hours on the hour (12pm server, 2pm, 4pm, etc.) 1s1u1n from the Executioner. There are three arenas each with different size requirements. Participate to earn clan lineage for yourself and prestige for your clan with no threat to ...

Another big update went in today. A few of the noticeable differences: You should no longer be able to save. Autostance implemented. 'Highscore' will rank top ten players in multiple categories who have logged in since the update. The majority of the changes won't be visible to players, but may have...

http://www.mudconnect.com/mud-bin/vote_rank.cgi?mud=Vampire+Wars The ranks reset a couple days ago and we're 15th with seven votes - I know we have more active players than that! It's easy to create an account, there's zero e-mail spam and if you have cookies enabled you'll rarely even need to retyp...

Any discussion regarding the second round of the tournament should be placed here. Information regarding the matches can be found in the bracket thread. Thanks to all participants for their patience and understanding.

Just wanted to respond to this one publicly since it may seem like it could affect pk until a fix goes in: The bug causes the aggressor (using kill or an aggressive spell) not to be "in combat" until the normal fight rounds kick in. However, the lag on the "kill" command and any ...

A significant update went live last night that will have far-reaching effects, some of which we couldn't fully prepare for or test. If you notice anything out of the ordinary, please use the support e-mail listed under "help email" to thoroughly describe what happened, and be sure to inclu...
