View Full Version : Pinefar treasure system re-evaluated.

Post From the Officials

Recent abuse of the treasure system by a handful of players has generated quite a bit of debate between GameMasters and other staff, prompting a general meeting on the topic last Tuesday. The negative impact on other players due to the devaluation of coins proved to be the consensus view, but many were hesitant to just roll out another "nerf."

In a continuing effort to cater the game to a variety of different strategies, we hope to continue providing a generous treasure system while addressing the over supply of silver in the game generally. There are no more plans to reduce the prices of skins, and in fact, over the next few months players should be seeing a general increase in payouts, especially for players who have trained in the trading skill.

But, these increases will come with some new features effecting those who hunt exclusively to skin creatures. These hunting grounds may be subject to prowl by bandits if they observe parties in the area with performing an unusual amount of skinning. These particular bandits will carry an exceptional amount of treasure, and as usual, stolen items can be recovered upon dispatching the bandit and searching its corpse.

We hope these new changes prove exciting and not frustrating for adventurers!

'features' always scares me.
But I like the sound of what they've got planned.

If it were a real post, it would have come from Mestys or Sirinia or even Solomon.

Andraste is hardly in charge of the treasure system.

Would anyone be AGAINST this type of behavior being explicitly against TOS?

I'm all for the ban hammer on this type of behavior ... unless it's someone on the forums that we like.

It does qualify as impersonating another poster though, as Andraste did post here once.

That was funny and well thought out.

Doesn't really qualify as impersonating, just putting words in the mouth of someone. It should be against the TOS, IMO.

Let's look at what the original post isn't: It's not a post saying that his real post will be "COMING SOON!" It's not a log that makes no sense or is dumb.

IorakeWarhammer's best post in my opinion. Unfortunately he decided to follow up with a worse version of the joke (monks) a couple hours later.

i don't take any meds, man. i think any average joe would get annoyed when a select few people on a message board decide to act overly negative and unnecessarily rude without any humor time and time again, it just gets old and kind of disgusting
