CF badly needs to be restructured. Every day it gets farther and farther away from roleplaying and honor and begins to grow ever closer to pure gangbang/whine. Lets see here...everyone is tired of whining correct? So how do we get rid of whining... Considering 95% of the whining that goes on is about people gangbanging other people and not roleplaying, we need to find some way to discourage gangbanging. I've thought about even setting you back xp wise when you slay a person in a group. The more people in the group, the more it sets you back (a group of just like 2 people wouldn't hardly be anything). But, sadly this does nothing for those at hero ranks. Also, CF seemed to be quite a bit more fun back when Battle was honorable, Knights were honorable, and even though shadow wasn't exactly honorable..they still did a lot of their hunting on their own. The reason I think everyone feels the need to gangbang now is because well, everyone else does it and it just isn;t safe to go out alone. This might lead to any change being made to have to be sudden and somewhat drastic to stop it all at once. Oh yeah, IMM's might keep a look out for people who are honorable and give them stuff such as quest skills, etc (or perhaps they already do and I am just not aware of it). Anyways, I know this entire ramble is something people already know but I just thought I would bring it up for discussion once again and hope something gets done about it. Victor
