I swear this was supposed to have been nerfed.

Pah, that's so unfair, the only time i tried to possess someone it didn't wake them up and i spent most of the time just waiting for that, and once i finished i had like a second before i was ejected, overpowered dreamweavers!

Thats just wrong and the fact that ethelon is the only one who actively empties everyones vials that he fights is worse... There needs to be either a timer on posses or vials cant be forced. Since that not only spammed me but spammed about 5 other people as well since it all happened in 10 seconds or less

I find this slightly amusing. It relates back to my idea of a double standard:

What type of posts would you expect to follow up if I were a Dreamweaver and did this sort of thing to Daevos or Murphy? What sort of adjectives would be used to describe a situation like this (mass emptying potions?)?

Well it'd probably be the same, but you know, that's just how the forums are, just a poor excuse to attack eachother, but yeah, i reckon there should if possible be a gap of maybe half or quarter of a second for each command that you can do while possessed, showing that the original host is fighting the commands, making them slower. Posses is only like 10 seconds right, so that's only a vial that possibly wasted.

I find it amusing that nobody saw this coming, given who did it. Although I am sure there will be some response about how the wrong alias was hit or something else to justify it.

In the arena, Shamarah was able to make me sip (not potions, but poisons he gave me) about 600 times (all you really need is one MASSIVE alias).

Hence why i said have a pause in it so they can only put in about 40 commands the total time, which will stop the whoring of stuff like that, but not destroy the skill.

I swear at some point someone said it had been nerfed to take 2 seconds of equilibrium for any given action, letting you have 10 total actions.

Or something.

I am sure Munsia deserved it though. I mean she must have been a real threat to Magnagora standing at the Mother tree. So much so that this had to be done, not once, but twice. Ah well, we all know this couldn't possibly be a prime example of just trying to grief another player.

Edited: because I forgot Ethelon moved to a new org.. again.

Wow, you know, if most of the people on these forums actually tried to do something constructive instead of taking a cheap excuse to insult other people, i think something might actually be done.

If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it is probably a duck. Pointing out the fact that a duck is a duck, isn't a cheap shot, it's the truth.

Yes, let's have Gregori go into the Lusternia code and alter this issue immediately!

Could have sworn I heard that too.

And a massive alias? Psh. #ONIN {empty({@list_potions})} {#600 {sip %1}} should empty 10 vials of whatever you want, given you've got random lists of potions, poisons, etc laying around.

Fair is fair, isn't it? If someone is going to have the nerve to create threads and make accusations, then they should be held to a higher standard. How exactly can you tell another person, who slew someone on Astral (for what I would argue was a decent and reasonable misunderstanding, but then again, Astral is open PK) that they are ruining the game and then do junk like this and expect to be taken seriously?

=====================================================
=====================================================
=====================================================


These are some quotes I dug up:





As we can see in a post and follow up post, Ethelon has agreed that forcing Shorlen to accidently empty a single vial of mending would be an act of griefing. After being called on it, he offered to refill it to make up for it. How is doing this now to Munsia not griefing?

While I'm sure we can all recognize that Shorlen and Munsia are in fact different people, the act itself is similiar and as such constitutes "as much" grief.

Um, it -was- given a delay, so any action while possessed took bal/eq. At least, it always worked that way for me.

It's a little rude to knowingly subvert that.

Isn't that the definition of IRE combat?

There is a simple solution to the problem. Have your dreamweavers do it to his buddies. Once his buddies come on and start complaining about it, then there is a greater chance the problem will be fixed or at least each side will agree to not perform such acts anymore. It seems the only time we can draw some empathy out of people around here is by forcing them to experience the heinous act for themselves.

Pretty sure when I last had possess it had a delay between each command. The one time I managed to pull it off I managed to get like 4 commands in if that.
