In Reply to: If you could change one thing about cf, what would it be? (Rager powers are off the table, do not choose them for this) posted by Graatch on October 19, 1999 at 05:59:14:

There are many things about CF that are inconsequential yet still annoying. Examples include :
1. Items flagged "magical" seemingly at random. Put "magical" flags only on items that clearly are so (e.g., long titanium spear, seashell ring, sex-altering eq, etc.) and then don't allow ragers to use such gear.
2. Items which when looked at, show the same "a sword is lying here" that you see when it's on the ground.
3. Bad grammar in the MUD's descriptions of events, e.g., "Someone's a sword glows green!", "Someone's torments maims you!", etc.
4. Masters should have powers that improve their magic, so they can actually BE masters of magic. Currently it's the Arcane sect of Empire has all the mastery-of-magic powers.

    • Not necessarily. If "torments" is singular -- the torments maims you. It's possible, given the context. *shrug* n/t Graatch(VIP) 10:29:37 10/19/99 (5)
      • How can "torments" be singular? One torment, many torments. n/t Anonymous 12:21:16 10/19/99 (4)
        • Torments, in this case, is really short for the "torments of hell". That could be one thing -- I send the "torments of hell" (one burst of magic), against you. n/t Graatch 21:39:05 10/19/99 (3)

          • That's a big stretch. It says "torments", and I think it means torments. (These torments happen to come from hell.) n/t Anonymous 22:47:39 10/19/99 (1)
