Title sais it all.

I came back to nm to find it completely dead. I decided to experiment with a new programming language and abuse nm for it.

I've written an auto roller (damned math questions are a bi­tch (yes i can get around the filter so ban me?) to get around), an auto trainer for 1 alt, an auto trainer for multi and an auto mapper (which was slow and really just a waste of time but a good experiment)

So basicly i'm done with nm.
Maybe the worst thing is that i didn't really have to hide my programming intents. i think many players knew and i know some staff knew about it yet i could just continue doing my thing.

can't say it was fun seeing you all again because it wasn't. i'm sure it wasn't as good for me as it was for you guys .

GL to ELF trying to save a game that's fuc­­ked up the way nm is.

I mentioned my account name and pw in clan chat so whoever logged in first has my stuff (not much)

Elf if you miss me, log on to msn. to everybody else. goodbye and try to leave the house atleast once a year and shower atleast once a week.

@JLH small advice, use different colours for perfect stats. now reading the stat colour for perfect stats is just too easy. it won't solve much but it'll make things more interesting. Or even better make the screen move around after a math question. now i could just go by fixed location and fixed colours. Congratz on making the text of the math questions not autoreadable (is it jsut a big picture?)

"Blackguard attacked Beamer for 117 points of damage"
"Beamer was killed by the Blackguard"
"Blackguard attacked Beamer for 112 points of damage"
"Beamer was killed by the Blackguard"

It has always made me laugh, and still makes me smile when I see posts of players talking about the old days, and then proceed to talk about Blackthorn and when PKing used to happen under Arilin or clan wars South of Nightmist. To me the old days was when mages Vortex Gate could take them to any city on the map (Pern Valley, Elven, Emerald, Northkeep, Cloud etc.) in the times where PKing was a true art form mastered by Ebony, not just a mass of alts, or a looking someone over from covert/invis to make sure you could win before attacking. The times when weapons such as the Stones Axe of the Ages, Sword of Sharpeness, Gorgon Spine Staff and armours like the Precise Crystal Shield and Ogre Helm were highly sought after. Back when men were men and sheep ran scared!

good old tims, good old times

and hi

This is an actual decent topic... if I have to delete any more stupid post off it I will start handing out in-game bans for atleast a week.

--------------

I have no big problem with taking off NOPK because well.. no one plays enough to worry about it, lol....

But you also need to keep this in mind.. the original reason the server was set to NOPK was so we could expand the game and and more areas, etc, being as JLH original reason behind not letting us expand was the game was to big already for the pking part of the game so no more expanding, so we got rid of that so more could be added for you guys to do....

------------

To Jurian;

Even if NOPK was taken off the game will not be reset. It was there choice to go to 1alt and sell of there main, now how would that be fair for the people that have been loyal to main and still play?

well then i'm pretty sure not many ppl will start playing main again so it would most likely just affect the two ro 3 players left on main let them decide

Posted by jurian on 23 October 2008 - 07:24 AM in Game Discussion

imo currently the main reason for ppl playing 1a is to pk. if you make main pk again you might as well shut down 1a. and since i can log off 20 crits faster then anyone else i'm fine with that

just make sure you combine it with a server reset. otherwise all the 1a ppl will get screwed by having to start all over again.

Gaysauce.

I got excited thinking Nightmist was going to get some help only to find out today that the postion being filled is for Opal Spheres

moose Opal Spheres. Folks have invested years of their lives in Nightmist. We have stated time and time again our willingness to pay for this game. Fix this one peez.

this one can't be fixed. let it die and everybody restart properly with opal spheres

I agree with some of the things mentioned above to some extend but basicly i think your all wrong

first of all i think only Elf really knows what 1a need as staff. we don't know exactly what Elf does but i do think she doesn't really doodle as much as an head artist should be able to do.

what i think, is, that we actually need 2 staffers.

one should be someone that isn't involved with all the stupid politics in game "i hate you because my guild tells me to hate you" and all that crap. This person should be able to read through the logs and work more on the background to solve player issues. Furthermore this person should have some technical knowledge to support with the ticket system and technical questions.

The second person is just someone to keep the game going with events and maybe balance the game / build new guilds and areas.

This way Elf can actually do what she was supposed to do and probably likes alot more then sorting out player issues.


In regards to the programming knowledge. This won't be necessary because 1) nobody is allowed to touch the code and 2) Pandi allready mentioned the code is not understandable other then for JLH.

So in short, let ELF sort this out with Wes and hope we get some new staffers. 1 that is someone like me (technical knowledge and doesn't care about politics) and works on the background (i'm not an option since most of you know i've been learning a new programing language and i've been testing stuff on nm which has not helped me train alot (getting the programming stuff to work takes more time then actually train) but i do know i'm walking the line regarding the rules). the second person should just make the game fun and evolve.

edit: small details changed
