  1. I agree entirely Fyrd - as I have mentioned before, I would rather see them added to - community elected LHO's, far more flexibility... sounds good to me! I am glad to see we agree on that front.

    As I said, I feel it is an abuse and against the spirit of MP6. More importantly, if you are going to give them more powerful abilities as LHO's, then it seems wise to treat the spells in a similar manner. I am glad to hear however that you are indeed a selfless MP6, Fyrd.

  2. Ah that is what I meant - if it is pointless or not fit for purpose why keep it unchanged. More of a dismantling than a suppressing...

    I'm not out to punish MP6 in any way - is that the impression you have? I would much rather see MP6 become the new LHO as mentioned before - much more powerful and important than they are now.

    With regards to the spellstones and people dropping, if they are actively using their powers would they be able to consistently store them? That feels like a bit of an odd argument for in my opinion. Plus, if they can't maintain an adept count, already majorly reduced, to me that would imply there are not enough people who need/value their help.

  3. Thank you both, it is much easier to know what someone is thinking when they type rather than push the little buttons next to a post, much appreciated.

    I personally view the storing of the spells as a bit of an abuse which is why I made the topic, DR. Thank you for your authorative declaration of when a change can be made - we as a community have noted it.

    I disagree on the change being a suppressing of MP6 Fyrd - can you explain why you think that is the case? Diminishing perhaps, but I never felt being able to hoard spellstones was a key aspect of MP6, the same as LHO.

    I am actually very keen to see MP6 fully replace LHO and move to something more formal with regards to helping new players. If they were unable to stone spells and the like, it would be a lot easier to advocate for them having more powerful tools like some LHO had.

  4. Thanks for your feedback guys, keep it coming!

    Mp6 is a earned status unlike lho is a admin given status and it's spells if I remember correctly. 

    Mp6 are allowed to stone there spells for a long time now. Syrian does it, fyrd had done it when mp6 and so have many more :)

     

    You can not compare mp6 to LHO as they are entirely different and LHO is not part of a mind stage. :)

     

    I personally would argue LHO was earned more than MP6 has ever been. Also, hilst it may have been allowed for a long time and others have done it, that does not mean it can't change - or that it should stay the same. I also don't understand why we cannot compare MP6 to LHO with regards to this particular point, on the spells - can you elaborate?

    Apologies you feel the wording on the poll is deceiving as that wasn't my intention. I should have appreciated that English is not the first language of many on MD. I will try to be more considerate in future.

    Anyway, the MP6 spells are geared to an environment where there are hordes of newbies.  When there are just 1-2 of them, the spells are almost useless. Regular heal spells are more powerful.  So, the whole thing is moot.  I gave up MP6 because the disadvantages outweigh the advantages at this time.

    {I am still committed to helping newbies, just not in this way.}

    Agreed, it is why I am not sure why we need them - perhaps best to put the system to rest for now then instead? As I see it, the people most interested in and actively helping new players are not MP6 or using it.

    Also, nothing is ever moot!

  5. I didn't realise you can stone the MP6 protector spells as I assumed they were like the LHO spells which, as I understand it, can't be put in a memory stone nowadays.

    I'm curious to see whether people think that should be the case for all prot-spells too?

    I feel like it should be the case that you cannot stone them, as the protector should be using the spells for the benfit of their herd, so to speak.

  6. I decided to go check on my dear friend MaGoHi as I was deeply concerned at the lack of a cooking quest this year. Imagine my shock and dismay when I find our brave Bacon Knight face down, motionless, in a pool of his own bacon puns. One note in particular caught my eye, however. It read...

    "Ledah my dearest and most noble of friends I know you will come here eventually seeking your anniversary quest, however I am currently somewhat indisposed. On my travels I came across a bacon pun so hilarious it has left me in this vegetative state. However, I know there is someone in this realm who will be able to cook me a fine meal, one that will break this curse and revive me! Go forth and bring me this dish!"

    I of course tried to revive him using my secret technique involving heads, however it was to no avail. So, my brave chefs, go and cook a meal... the one that revives MaGoHi is in for a great reward! Please, post your recipes, the finished product, and any other information that will help me recreate your dish... great treasure awaits you.

    1st place: 18th Anniversary Creature + bacon pun from Mag

    2nd place: 10 GC note + a slightly less funny bacon pun from Mag

    If there are enough entries then there may be other... prizes. Now, time to go check on Sunfire and see where my combat quest is...

  7. MD has a long history of being unfair - some people cheat and bend the rules and get away with it. Not that you would know about that of course, Else. In addition, I never said or implied the change in rules were unfair to me - please don't put words in my mouth.

    As an aside, I agree with letting people run their quests how they see fit... which is why I am never the first to whine about how they are run.

    Now, if people want to continue discussing anything except the contests in question, perhaps a new thread might be in order?
