I think you should announce AFK deaths/smites in Shout and give people a couple of minutes to get there and watch. Then kill them with something really unusual or spectacular.

I've heard that Shadow Renders and Night Walkers particularly enjoy killing those that have gone AFK...

How 'bout an Undead Kobold? Or an undead killer chicken?

Something embarrassing with a very good to-hit.

I wouldnt mind seeing people with double logins getting the boot either since i had to wait over 3 hours yesterday to log in.

I 100% agree double loggins should be booted, how slefish and unfair to be playing 2 toons at once when ppl cant get into the server - BOOT em

I agree on the double logins. I don’t mind if someone uses it and is playing both at the same time (some talented people out there) but it is unfair when the server is full and people are waiting to get in.

It would be very difficult to find out if someone has 2 computers going at once so I am making it more of a request, if the server is not full and your playing (actually playing them both not leaving one just sitting there) them both go ahead but if its full have some courtesy for other people.

some are more talented than others

and yes, a respectful thing for all people who dual-log would be to keep an eye on the server numbers -- if it is near capacity and you are logging on for the first time that day, it would be nice not to take up those 2 or so slots left --- often you pwn someone else out of a spot who may be swiching characters....

but i must also note that if an individual is playing 2 toons flawlessly; it would be no different than if that were 2 physical people playing those two toons.....hence leads you to routers and local networks ---i have said this before and i will say it again....Where i live, there are 3 people who play NWN and there are 4 computers available to us....

--and one other thing --- if you are having a problem logging into the server b/c its full and you REALLY want to get on, you will sit there and keep clicking the connect /login button until a slot opens up ...... have you ever watched the log of how often people log in and out? it is rather frequent...if you again REALLY have a dire urge to get into the server, u wouldnt have to spend more than 2-5 minutes to log in.....

3 hours ? yes only if you were checking back every 10 minutes --

I suggest that if you have to wait to get in, when you do get in announce that the server is full. This way those people with double logins will know that it is time to get rid of a character and allow someone else a space.

thats not a bad idea auctually

Post by **Zing** » Wed Jun 21, 2006 2:39 am

Maybe I'll just script a double login detector....

Double login = instant delivery of toon no.2 to deletion.

You've been warned. If (When) I put this in I won't announce it.
