The problem is someone could attack a boss almost to death, then log and kill it with there Qst_ character. And then claim complete ignorance.
Mayor is not a boss. Anything that drops keys and only keys is fair game.
Elshira is not a boss for this quest, and is fair game.

I say if you get pked doing quest oh well, stuff happens. Not like you will get pked at a boss anyways. As they are restricted to them only anyways. Although i find it kind of crappy that me and my sharer could use 4 more cr's and now for 2 months we cant even attempt to go get them. We are restricted to buying them. A widely used boss should not be off limits.

Oh well, 2 months of log checking times how many people decide to play. That's practically impossible. People already autotrain and multipc without staff having a way to find out (as I've read here). How come you think you can control a quest of this magnitude.

What even counts as a boss, a unique monster that doesn't drop a key or nothing at all?

Let me quash this conspiracy theory right now before it gets out of hand. We did not push him out of his quest, and certainly not the game. Scripto and I were protesting against just one rule, mainly because it is practically impossible for it to be obeyed for a full two months, and also unfair - unfortunately he left as a result.
i agree with what you and mark did,there were other things i did not agree with also but that is besides the point

It's sad that someone had to ragequit because of it, but there is nothing we could have done to prevent it in this instance. We acted as a community, made our voices heard, and they were answered.
The players and Staff of NightMist should remember that through communication and cooperation we can get things done. As well, I'm glad you two took over and will continue to run the quest. Thank you for that especially, as I understand you wouldn't have to.

Qst_ Characters are restricted to one per IP logged in at any time. If multiple people play from your IP you must memo me first, and appear on webcam AND be subject to multipc checks at any time.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!My sharers and I do not own a webcam. Team Speak could be pulled off, as that's what we use... But on such a short notice and to invest money like that for NM, I now doubt I will be involved.
Personally, I find it highly suspicious that 5-7 people will have the same IP address....
Sharing itself is not a problem if you all have different IPs then you have nothing to worry about, however several 'people/neighbours/wife' having the same IP and logging on/off at the exact same time, and going afk at the same time, and not being able to run to different places when requested is a touch suspcious imo. However, I'm sure several people are fairly glad I'm not staff on the 1a server.
I have 4 IPs running off my router. Not 5-7. Get your nonsense straight.
First of all, if a player requests me to do something, you can go screw yourself. If staff asks me to do it, that's another story. You think you're smart? Autotrainers can make 4 different IP's run to 4 different towns.
On a second note, who is to say my 6 and 7 year old don't tap macros for me? I mean, you need to get a life, play the game you see 'if', I'll play the game I see fit. If you don't like it, quit or stop QQ'ing. There's no way to prove it.
Edit: Seriously, what's next? Want the names/address'/social security numbers of all the people who choose to play with me? I don't go around PKing your dumbass, I go out and I have a good time with my sharers. Stop trying to slander -my- name.
Damn bro someones real defensive about those neighbors. If its truly neighbors you'd have nothing to worry about so why rage.
Also programing a sequence in an auto trainer on 4 different computers in a matter of 10 seconds is impossible.
Anyways back on topic. Glad to see its still going to be done it got me all excited when I played this morning.

JLH said its ok becasue it cant be 100% proven and he wont have anyone banned for it. (Wonder why everyone does it now?)
Alec wasnt raging, he was making a point.
I dont agree with the way Staff have handled things, his rule was fine and he had reasoning.

Or on another topic..
Use it
I was always for 2 or 3a's, 1a is just not viable with this playerbase.
But this "multi" fad that's been happening more and more, it's pretty much the same fix. The game is more lively, people are having fun, CREDENZA died for the first time ever on the server.
But, this "multi" thing, it pretty much only gives a few that chance, and makes people who can't feel like they're playing main on 1 character. I think the alt limit should just be changed up and maybe people wouldn't feel the need to do this, giving them anywhere from a 2x + advantage.

For 4 people to all log on 'constantly' within a few seconds/minutes of each other on a daily basis is a touch more than suspicous, I mean I dont think I've ever seen 1 of the above chars online on its own, EVER!! It is also strange that you were all for the quest until Jase posted rules that all people with the same IPs had to appear on webcam.
Now, I'm not saying you are the only person who is using multiple-alts and possibly it is a little harsh of me to single you as an example, but it really irritates me that just because JLH says it's impossible to prove it; that it makes it OK. IT DOESN'T!!
Staff need to seriously rethink their policy and the message they send out to both old and especially new players, personally I believe it is a severe failing of the game that people feel it necessary to log on more than 1 character on a 1 alt game. However, this does not deflect from the fact that this is a 1 alt game, and should be treated as such.
Punishments as Autek said need to be dished out on a 'suspicion of' basis, and staff need to interrogate players they think are multi-alting. If this proves to be true, then an instant ban/deletion of the abused characters/accounts should happen. That would put a stop to the problem overnight.
Possibly the wrong thread for that, but now it's said.
Roll on the quest, good luck to all!!

As Alex pointed out, Multi-Alting made the game more fun for most people and bigger bosses possible with a low playerbase.
Make it 3-alt.
#84
Posted 30 August 2011 - 06:28 PM
making 1a into 3-alt kinda defeats the purpose of the whole server for me as a player, I thought it was supposed to be something fun and different.. I can play 3 alts on the other server.
Not all multi-pcers bother me either its mostly the people who multi pc just to wreck other player's fun, if you use 3 or whatever of your own alts to constaly ruin someones fun who can only run 1 altand only have 1 computer and thats why they came to play 1a in the first place ..that person will most likely give up as its hard as hell to compete 1v2 or 3 ALL the time.
I was looking forward to the quest because it would bring alot of that 1a mentality back even if just for a brief time and for only a select group thats participating... tbh thats the whole reason I am even giving 1a one last shot and participating. I enjoy using 1-alt.

Take away multi users and you have like 6 players left on 1-alt that are on regularly.
I know which way id choose if it was my game..
Apparently not since those neighbors are real?
I'm confused..
P.S. - Don't raise the ALT limit. 1a is supposed to be 1a. If anything is to be done its more balancing for 1a.
On another note make haveing 1alt actually worth something. There is no reward for someone busting there tail to get to 40 when it doesn't affect there capabilities in game.
