s in most things, there are always two sides to every story. What you
feel is the "truth" about why you were deleted probably doesn't come
close to the version as would be told by the wizard who deleted you.
Reality probably lies somewhere in the middle.
Personally, my initial reaction about people being restored was
you've got to be kidding me?! However, as I told Saya recently,
if these people truly can rejoin society and be productive members of
the Donut, wonderful. If they are going to go back to their old ways
of attacking newbies or whatever else they did to get deleted in the
first place, I trust that Gorboth will show them the bit bucket
permanently as he promised.
It is clear that the decision has been made so everyone needs to learn
to live with it. There have been many unpopular decisions that
those of us that have stayed have managed to live with. Remember
the major uproar when the valuable weapons and armours were
suddenly limited? When we were actually required to eat and drink
once in a while? Limits on eating herbs?
The one thing I have learned in my dozen or more years of playing
here is that the people who inhabit this Donut are rather
resourceful and we manage to adapt quite well.
You will also find that the wizards of Genesis are quite
pleasant people (well maybe except for Stern - but even he's
if you aren't a tasty looking elf). If you make suggestions
that are reasonable, they will listen. I would suggest
starting with small requests - things that could
benefit all and they could code quickly. Asking for
an entire overhaul of something or a new guild probably
won't be done "by Christmas".
My Christmas Wish List
1. Zodiac gems restored to all who had them and make them non-dustable.
2. More orbs in the tower like the one Louie installed for emerald.
3. Hints at those orbs to give you some reasonable idea where to look
for the start of the next quest on the list.
4. Events - they are the one thing that truly seems to get people moving.
Those that are "easy" for all people of any size, I think are best. (i.e.,
like skulls, cleaning the donut) because anyone can participate including the
"little kids".
I'd like to see a scavenger hunt based on common items that are available to
anyone (ie not restricted to only 1 guild, 1 per boot items, alignment based
etc.).
Instead of making it difficult/impossible to get some items, just make a longer
list (300 items instead of 150?).
Anyway, I hope everyone's player has a wonderful, happy, healthy, and safe
upcoming
holiday season.
