Targun's Misconceptions

I'm not even through the litany of inane banter presented here and
I find myself writing a reply.

First, I disagree totally with Targun's viewpoint. The reason guilds
allow high powered skills and spells is that people have earned
them, not just bought them. Sometimes it is a function of guild xp,
sometimes it is that you can only be promoted by a member of
whatever council is present, sometimes it is by answering questions
posed by a guild NPC. Whatever it is, you don't get the power until
you have proven yourself some way or another. Call it forced roleplay,
fronting, or whatever you like, it keeps the L33T's or whatever the
heck those ponderous fools on MMORPG's call themselves that don't
even have the capability of typing words that exist in a recognized
language.

Second, mages can not become minstrels to get healing. If they could
there would probably be at least ONE of them somewhere. There is no
way in Melkor's green Arda there should ever be one with access to
the cantrips used by the heralds or rebels. There was problems with
that in the Hin warriors, where one would be a black wraith of Morgul
and High White Sorceror of the Hin.

It has been years since herbs were changed, so comparing the two is
pointless.

Vampires can't eat. How can herbs or alcohol help them?

I think the Disgraced order members is excellent. It tells the world of
transgressions. It should carry a reduction in the ability to use
specials or use higher training, like the Angmarians used to ( or
maybe still do ).

Ok, now I guess I can read the rest and not have my train of thought
derailed by the swarming arguments in my head.
