Myth Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 Not really. Being offline is more like "sleeping", so I don't see why I can't teleport or locate a sleeper any less than one who is awake. :p dst, No one and lashtal 3 Quote

Cast on a playwer who is online and a player who is logged off at the same time - FAILURE! That is making an assumption that players character stops existing when logged out. I for one don't see it like that. After a time motionless you become basically invisible but when casting a spell you don't care if the target is invisible or not.

Aeoshattr Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 My feelings about this are conflicting. On the one hand, I think that lore-wise, it makes sense for spells to be castable on offline players. But on the other hand, I personally find it a bit irritating to log in and be under the effect of a spell because someone wanted to have some fun while you couldn't react. I onno. It bothers me but not enough to make a whole case on it. Rophs and Kyphis the Bard 2 Quote

This is the main reason why I'm suggesting the change. Perhaps movelock etc would be usable but teleporting spells shouldn't affect offline players. dst and Sasha Lilias 2 Quote
Root Admin Chewett Posted February 6, 2015 Root Admin Report Posted February 6, 2015 There are ways to stop you being teleported while offline, I dont like the concept when logged out you cannot be teleported.Teleporting in general, is badly looked on by both of us however. Sasha Lilias 1 Quote
Sasha Lilias Posted February 6, 2015 Report Posted February 6, 2015 Would you also like to not be able to be attacked when idle? As there's obviously no way you can prevent that either? DARK DEMON, Syrian, Chewett and 1 other 1 3 Quote
Root Admin Chewett Posted July 1, 2015 Root Admin Report Posted July 1, 2015 At the moment, this idea needs polish if its going to go anywhere. Targeting offline players is something that for the moment will continue. Feel free to rebump and repolish this idea. Quote
