> What is with the trend lately? or is it just that? a trend!! people no longer want to group, all they want to do is practice? now, that is all good, but you have that click out there who know each other by OOC names, and always are together, so those are always the heros. but the fun of the game doesnt beging untill you hero, so being a newbie running around trying to learn, escape the PK's and ranking is quite more difficult these last 2 or 3 months it seems. The role playing is decreasing also, now I have seen the trends and I am hoping this is jus that, a trend. NOw if anyone has any other thoughts, or believe they have a argument to my opion do share.....and so cursing to this...that is the most immature thing to see on this forum is bashing and cursing. Hell for some of us this is our morning newspaper. :)
I couldn't agree more. I think perhaps the reason why some of the roleplaying is getting lost, is a lot of people don't rank in groups, or always rank with the same 2 other people. Obviously this goes for warrior, assassin, thief types more, since most mages can't rank alone. This lack of interaction with a lot of others, promotes a lack of roleplaying, as one does not need to roleplay with ones self, and you get too comfortable if you rank with the same group over and over and tend to let your roleplaying down.
