This is why we can't have nice things.
For a minute there I thought the trap failure gave everyone in the room a disk. I was thinking that's a pretty awesome new trap.
Yeah, that disk spam seriously distracted me.Quote:

And things like this are why some people don't like boxes being picked in TSC, even for audience reps.
(Edit: Yeah, I know... unpopular opinion. TSC is where people hang out now, audience reps are a bitch, but really... with TSC being so full and spammy, shit like this can be pretty deadly.)
The disk spam came after your screamQuote:

Having discovered a trap on the trunk you begin to carefully attempt to disarm it...
You carefully open the lid of the steel trunk the tiniest bit, and peer inside. To one side of the locking mechanism, you can see what appears to be a thin cord connecting the lid to something within the trunk itself.
You figure that if you had a dagger, you could probably cut the cord.
Roundtime changed to 3 seconds.
Roundtime: 5 sec.
You exclaim, "I almost blew a scales trap because of that!"
>put lock in tool
You put a silk-wrapped veniom lockpick in your vruul-hide toolkit.
>open my trunk
Ok, it opened.
Suddenly, a battered steel trunk gives off a loud sizzle, and explodes in a bright flash!
Being closest, you take the brunt of the blast!
... 50 points of damage!
Massive blow to your chest collapses your sternum!
You are stunned for 8 rounds!
The trunk's casing is blasted into hundreds of tiny flechettes!
"A small human child cries out, "Murder!". His mother then sends him off for the night watchman."
Parenting fail, darwin award?
I screamed because I didn't get a rep (my 403 was left on from the last box). Then the disks hit. Scrolled everything up. I thought I had got my knife out. Then i was distracted by talking about the disks. It's even funnier because I was like "damn i almost fucked up that scales trap."Quote:

The solution to this is to disarm your boxes somewhere else beforehand and pick them in TSC for an audience. If you have a scale trapped box, put it in a separate container, pick it and put it away in that container immediately. Disarming traps in TSC is just stupid.Quote:

How dare people inconvenience you by being murdered by your poor picking skills!
Haldrik is going to be put on the Elanthian No Chronomage List.
Ha. I bet at least 100,000 more deaths have been caused by errant and careless AOEs then my total lifetime trap kills! And technically it was human/player error! My IG picking skills are more then adequate! I wouldn't be that careless.Quote:

Looks like script fail to me. (Ps done that before)
Another reason picking in TSC is stupid as fuck is because if something happens like a scarab goes off, nobody can kill it as far as I know (IIRC uncurse just gets the scarab out of you but not used to kill it) because the room is sancted.Quote:

^ Is that really such a massive chore?
The disks were from me btw, and you can't use that as an excuse for not paying attention. Even if they were someone else's disks.
I was going to say the fine makes it far more of a penalty for him than anyone else, but haven't they scripted incarceration by now?
Probably, but incarceration is still time wasted, even if you go afk to take a giant dump while waiting it out.Quote:

Disarming in TSC is bad. If you have to inconvenience yourself to make it harder for you to fuck up and kill a bunch of people... well sounds like you need to suck it up and not be a bitch. Picking in TSC is okay only because of audience reps.
I made that mistake once. I blew up a good 7-8 people, I think it was a 10m fine or something. Since then, if I'm doing lockmastery reps I won't go to TSC, I'll bug friends to come sit at a table with me to work on them. The fact that you're unwilling to put effort into not ruining other people's night because of your A) laziness B) lack of focus C) general douchebaggery D) all of the above is really kind of ridiculous. At the very least, if you find a trapped box, move OUT of TSC to disarm it then come back. Have a little common courtesy for other people, it goes a long way.
There may now be an argument for LFM rogues to save all their boxes until Wednesday and pick them in front of each other while practicing other guild skills.

Are you retarded? I was never banned. I also never once said I don't care if I kill people. One box explosion out of 500+ boxes is not a big deal. There is less risk of me popping a box in TSC then people flinging AOE spells hunting.Quote:

It was picked. I attempted to disarm with the pick instead of my knife. Log's pretty clear.Quote:

While some of it was while he was present, definitely not all 20 hours of it. So he got himself a couple of warnings then came here to boast about how it was a trial account and how he'd just start another one up. We all laughed at him then people inevitably turned on Buckwheet and it devolved from there. At one point he even posted a scathing log of Mazreth handing him a warning because he was very slow to respond to the script checks.Quote:

Hopefully enough things were quoted where we didn't lose EVERY gem from those threads.
Yeah, I don't even play prime, but it's pretty clear she's right.
Hahaha, Haldrik had a meltdown.
Ooooh, look everyone, he isn't going to post any more of his "fun" logs!!!Quote:

Perhaps his attitude is a result of the posturing that frequently happens in gathering areas. I don't think that picking in TSC is the best idea, but it happens, it's a trap. (Moving to disarm is a great idea). One of my characters was killed the same day by a box on Teras. That guy didn't get a lecture. He apologized and we went on with our business.
People bitch about so many things that happen in *their* resting spot. Don't fletch, don't loresing, don't play musical instruments, don't scroll my screen with healing. Don't duplicate wands. Just sit there like a zombie so we can all get to clear and run back out to hunt again.
I would wager a bet that some folks with older characters warned him about his behavior and that he would see dire consequences if he didn't acquiesce to their demands (suggestions?).
It's a game, now we have chrisms - mana spellup and basically lose a deed. :shrug:
Just saying...
Singing songs, spelling up, healing, etc.... none of that gets you killed. It's like comparing apples and oranges here. In fact, the amount of screen scroll going on in TSC because of these things are an argument FOR not picking in TSC... you're more likely to miss something. Of course, spamming any room with people in it is fairly rude, IMO, but it is still not even close to the same thing.Quote:

And people who spend money to be spelled up, can't afford chrisms, etc. What might seem like a non-issue to you could very well be a huge one for someone who doesn't have the ability to spell themselves up to hunt. Or, you know, the fact that when 5-6 people die and there's only one cleric and you get to wait around for half an hour to be raised and you lose out on your game-time for the night. All because someone can't be inconvenienced to move a few rooms east to disarm a box?Quote:

From an RP perspective, you're still dying, experiencing pain, annoying Lorminstra, etc. It makes perfect sense that a -character- would want to avoid going through all that as much as possible.Quote:

With all the holier then thou attitudes, it occurred to me that only a single person tried to address this in game. Who I doubt is any of you. So everyone raging about dying and no disarming in TSC, saying its bad behavior, improper, etc., fuck off. Learn to handle shit IC and let go of the OOC rage.
Anyways, this circle jerk is tiring. I'll be actually stepping out of this thread for good now. (Taerneth this would be an appropriate time to assume that I'm leaving the thread.

Than. You're welcome.Quote:

What about when you were acting like a cuntbasket to the GM after your script checks in that old thread you mysteriously edited the posts out of because you had nothing to hide? The thing both of these situations have in common is you being a cuntbasket.Quote:
