Nice try... But I do believe, this is a more accurate depiction.

I think it might be time to re-activate the boot script i monitered one chr yesterday and the player was AFK for over 40 mins..so all in all if the script was back in place...yes i know a pain if you are RPING but it would help when the server is very busy for those tryin to log in and wanting to play..not go afk and watch football on the TV or spend 30 mins eating there meal..

It all boils down to common curteosy...if ya need to afk for a long time log out and let others use the server
And they came from out of the mists... the hordes of undead

Nothing stood in the wake of their path and the carnage and destruction was insurmountable.

Picking up your loot seems to be the easiest. Also, last night the DM gave a reward to someone for picking up others' messes. It was mostly potions and healing kits. You never know who is watching.

Just be careful that you are not loot stealing. I have issues finding the balance but if they are gone and I walk by it more than once, in my bag it will go.

The bot script is a PIA, but installing it for a few weeks to people get used to the idea of it might be a good idea.

After all, we had the boot script before and it trained the player base rather well. It was removed due to complaints and the disruptive effect on RP. Perhaps the educational techniques of tha past can work the same magic again.

Since BSK2 isn't sucking up bandwidth anymore, a higher limit looks once again to be a realistic possibility. The return to a capacity of 40 is certainly to be commended.
The only constant is change.
