I've been getting the itch to play again and wondered what everyone thinks of all the new stuff. I read up on the new shield skills, but other than that, I don't really know anything about new things such as enscrolled items.
Are the shield skills pretty cool or are they overrated?

Kerl seems to swear by shield trample/trample mastery.

I was there for monks. I think I was still around when the first player made a capped monk. 2 years maybe?

Everything is over rated and sucks. Nothing to see here.

I find myself playing the game less and less these days. Much of the reason is the number of players who are gone - almost all of the people I used to hunt and/or socialize with have moved onward.

Good. They're still around, they just have you on ignore.

Not even close to funny WB, but keep trying.
BTW you forgot to give me one of your stupid rep reps, or haven't you insulted enough other people yet?

Be patient. You already get more than your share.

No more posting on pc for you. :( and they'll probably require you to be at the keyboard, so consider that.

That will be the day Simu sells GS or closes it down.

If Simu sells GS it might actually become something again.

so i was randomly on a krakiicoma last night and stumbled onto the GM article and found this quote from Wyrom
"I started off as a GameHost, and it took me years to get that. I was interviewed 3 times for a GM position over the course of 6 years before I got hired."
gee, i wonder why GMs "burn out" before they can do anything when all they have to do is work as a host for half a decade before they can actually do work...

Mario has done a great job over the years, proud of him.
Everyone takes time to find the groove or the opportunity that fits the skill set. In 97-8ish i was heading out, and ended up as host, senior host, sage (remember that idea!), and by 2001 i was a GM. Just different for everyone.
You have to make your own opportunities some days. /shrug but Wyrom done a good job.
Happy Holidays folks!

good to see you back around, Paul.
319 is pretty awesome for sorcerers, empaths and clerics. not sure how successfully others can use it.

I say you give it a try for a month. If you don't find that reason for wanting to play, than you are only down 15ish dollars. The trick is to not be an anti-social person. If your character is evil.. hang out with other evil folks. Same if your a good character.. hang out with cheerful folks.
As Candor pointed out that a lot of the people he knew have moved on. Understand that you will constantly be making new friends as you play. (I know I have seen good friends stop playing and have been pushed to make new ones.)

how many people play during prime time?

Probably about the same number as when you left. Donquix did a mass poll last year at the same time:

Tgo already is a GM. He's a double agent.

WRoss, we both know you're a min-max-er at heart. Come on back and run through to cap again. You'll make some hybrid build the "next big thing". I believe cause I've seen it. Would love to have you back!
Cheers buddy!
