Yeah, what on earth is a "Pwipe"? I read it and think it's a typo or something.. when obviously it's not.
When you do something right nobody remembers, but when you do something wrong nobody forgets.

it would be good if everybody started over. it would give people a chance to compete against people who already have everything and more. i'd definately play more often

i've suggested a reset before and i still wouldn't mind one but in favour of ppl that have alot now and don't want one. It's not their fault that there are ppl that don't ahve anything. they worked for what they got now why should they be punished for being better then others?

guess i'd tell everybody to DIE first though. kidding...

I think it would just be funny watching some recent newb race to level up and start PKing people that were rich and had about 30 archs. It would be funny to watch. It would also be nice to see some people actually work for what they get for a change. i believe it's so unbalanced at the moment, especially with all the bugs that occured at times, and some people getting away with it.

I'd be a bit curious as to why there was a player-wipe. Does that mean some huuuuge re-vamping happened to Nightmist?

it would only work with an alt limit tho! otherwise the guy that can run the most alts would get the strongest and the game would be unbalanced again.

i could for example arch 16 crits while maha and lich only get to arch 4 in the same time. don't get me wrong, i like my alts but i also understand that it's unfair to others.

Zelimos, not trying to be offensive here, but there are MANY people that have worked very hard for what they have.. the honest way. And those same people, will am sure do so again even if there was a reset.

Don't get me wrong, although I would surely keep playing and build up once more what I have worked for now... I am fine with the game as it is.

I may start playing again.

Most of the pros and cons have been stated(more or less), but one more con comes to mind. There would be no way to make sure that you would be able to re-attain the names that you are known for.If this happened some idiot would make like 100 crits just to take all the names, and that would be most unfair.

Although I wouldnt mind it at all, a lot of other people would, so I don't see it happening (especially since the game would need some tuning first).

I think the complaints about the rich getting richer and the noobs being poor and staying that way are and will always be bull. If you think people are overpowered simply because they've played for a long time, you are full of crap. They have an advantage, a large one. They've played longer than you; should playing for years not result in the ability to beat things more easily? Why bother playing if playing doesn't make you better?...half of the 'old/overpowered' players don't do much other than sit and talk at south gatehouse, if they log at all.

When I first started there were plenty of people with arches of all sorts of stuff; I complained my ass off, too. Now I feel I've got plenty of stuff and a fairly nice account. If I, someone who practically never trained and had Nightmist as his very first text based game, can go from starting to having the ability to head off and kill anything in game, most anyone else who plays can after a while.
My arch 6/6s aren't really 'better' than an arch 4 stat, maybe even 3 stat, so making not being able to buy crits a claim to it being unfair isn't true either.


I hear all of the complaints about 'they have arches and they always kill me'...who are these 'they'? Why is it when I run around training or pking I never see any of the 'poor noobs'? If people trained their stuff rather than using people with arches as an excuse not to train, they'd catch up rather easily imo.

All in all, you learn the game, run around to places that are remote to train, and simply play to entertain yourself rather than to 'dominate people' or get 'revenge', you'll soon see that people don't search quite hard enough to find you, the remote places don't seem as far off, and the game is entertaining rather than frustrating.

Just some more of my change, (as in 2 cents)
