Push Push, and where did sloth go?

[Toxis]

If this is how it is going to be, then I'm done. Doing a mob you've killed 10000 times in the past and all the sudden he dispels you? And not just a change, I HATE being dispelled. Take this mud and go to hell. You have ruined it. You have driven players and imms away. You are just the end of sloth and I feel so hurt not for myself, because sloth was an institution. I hate you. Rot and die, you punks. This is from a builder, an immort, that was level 45 and told them to wipe me twice because of their behavior. I came back because I thought things could change and evertyime splork came back, bs returned. This is your mud, have fun with it.

You suddenly have a feeling that everything is not right!

You grouptell: 'WWwwwwwwwwAAAAAaaaaaahhHHHHHH!!!!'

In all channels.. that is nice. I tried to help you, you dicks. You stupid dicks, you are some big ass punks. there is ICQ and MS messneger.

Have fun with your mud, youre #1 leader
Toxis,
Your Leader

[hounds]

baby babality Toxis -- 'WWwwwwwwwAAAAAAaaaaaahhHHHHHH!!!!'

thats a little over they top you no shout then you dont alow himt to speak in group or guild why this just seams a realy big insult to do to some

[*juggleblood*]

This was not a recent change. It was part of a mob proc behavior that has been in game for a long time. You just never noticed it or got hit with it before.

This is no excuse to get on gossip, once again, and curse people out. Why would you curse out Jezer if you're mad at a mob / the admin?

If you go berserk on a public channel and start cursing and swearing and raising a big ruckus, you're going to get noshouted.

Threatening to bring down the mud if we don't do what you want is not going to be effective. Neither is your clan mates threatening to leave or threatening to start botting.

When you get like you tend to get, you need to log off, eat something, and mellow out. You are a non-compliant diabetic and it's making you act like a total lunatic. If you continue on this course, you're going to go into a diabetic coma.

The rules apply to everyone. If you use foul language on public channels, you will receive a noshout of 1 hour from me if I'm on. If you continue to make a huge fuss and make threats, etc, I will afflict you with babality.

I don't think this policy qualifies me as a 'dictator' etc... The rules regarding civilized discourse on public channels have not changed in over 10 years.

your'e right jug.. I'm so stupid... I QUIT

[angel]

noshouting we can understand,but bability was just dumb. mud isnt as fun anymore
cheers

[Toxis]

So I'm wondering, Toxis and Godz is gone, who's going to lead your stupid little mud?

[*juggleblood*]

[quote="Toxis":1ds1n1p5]your'e right jug.. I'm so stupid... I QUIT

-TOXIS[/quote:1ds1n1p5]

You quit because of a mob proc or because I noshouted you?

1. That mob proc has been around a long time.

2. No one on this mud has stood up for you more than me.

Eat some damn food, get some sleep, and mull it over. What really changed in the course of that hour besides your blood sugar level?

[Toxis]

That mob always had reflection?

[Ezekiel]

I don't agree with Toxis' approach but I do agree with his point. Juggleblood, you can say all you want that that mob proc has been there, he may have not been hit with it, but I've been mudding for over ten years and have seen that mob hit too, too many times and have NEVER seen it dispel ANYONE. I asked around from the veterans and got the same consensus. Toxis and Godz probably hit it the most, outside of the people I asked, and they agree that it never dispelled. Quit ******* with the damn mobs dependent on how people cycle things, how many people hit them, and adding autoquest stuff to commonly run xp/eq mobs so you are forced to beef them up. These three things are pissing off people that actually learn techniques and tricks to kill things... (or just people that have become accustomed to cycling things on an xp run and then *poof* there is a magical dispel/reflection proc that 'has always been there' yet never fired). Tweaking with things in these ways, such as how fallon, green dragon, and wu were changed...leads to nothing but veterans leaving who have found ways to kill these things with smaller numbers. Wanting people to group with larger numbers is one thing, forcing it when they don't is just bad imming.

*If you are claiming it was reflection, it's awfully funny that any time the mob has ever had it up over years of running, we've never seen it dispel the attempting dispeller before in groups.

[Thraxas]

Oh dear,

I stop playing for a couple of weeks (refound Oblivion the Elder Scrolls IV and realised I'd never got as far as closing all the oblivion gates so taking a short holiday from sloth to do so) and the whole place seems to be falling apart.

I know you're all missing me and all this angst and bad feeling is really just a projection of your longing to see me again you should all know that I do feel guilty for not being there.
Please all of you blame me entirely for the problems that have kicked this thread off ... it is ultimately all my fault.

I will be back soon.

[*Splork*]

Nobody has changed that mob, the proc has been there for years but rarely triggers in that way. Imms are not and will not be dispelling anyone or changing mobs while players are running them or they will be wiped.

I just grepped ALL immortal logs and the last 8 days we have been up for setpr & wu and statpr & wu, what this means is any time an Immortal either changed wu's proc or stated it, I would see.

log.txt:2009-11-17 06:50:20 ** 4687:statproc:Splork:statpr wu: **
log.txt:2009-11-17 06:57:19 ** 4687:statproc:Splork:statpr wu: **
And not ONE imm has setproc this mob since sloth started. So there is no results for this one.

The truth of the matter is, Toxis was drunk off his ass again last night and threw his 100000th tantrum and got punished for it. Another one of his famous over rections.

Ezekiel's post has me extremely confused since about the only thing we have changed in game since we began this version of Sloth is the gold one one area that gave up 35 mil in one week and a few auto quests that most of us felt needed some adjusting. Both of these situations were brought to our attention by fellow players and then checked into via playerstats and logs.

We have continually given back to the players during this version and will continue a long this path.

Ta is leading 'XP?' on Thordfalan:

And I bet he leads without 10 minute baby afks and ending the group every time with a drunken tirade.

I stood up for you and stuck my neck out for you left and right Brad, but you are poison and if you finally do decide to retire, I personally will be relieved at this point. You automatically assume everyone is out to get you, its just become a bit hard to take and it makes it pretty unpleasant for many of us. Even you have to realize you are ridiculous.

Sa/Godz -- dont be influenced by him, do your own thing. If you want to play, play. If not best of luck.

[Toxis]

You can make this about me. Where are the countless friends who have quit in the past 7 months? If you can't remember them all... just look at the top... Godmode, Magi, Stryx, Toxis... there's milestones... and where are the others? You say you have an awesome mud gathereing players, but you really don't realize anything I've tried to say. And that is the ultimate reason I'm done and leaving. I've tried so hard to make you realize what you're doing to our mud.

Where's Alana? Where's Wasp? Where are the hundreds of imms who quit because of horrible admin? You have no idea. You can't gather the concept of it all. Forget about me, just realize what you've done, for the love of sloth. Just THINK about us all who have left and ask why. Just ask why and wonder if it made sloth better.
