Yeah, but if you have to rename/edit the description of a fixture tagged to someone else you're either a filthy thief in which case you deserve the trouble, or the character in question is rolled.

When you get your name changed, you lose all your portals.

When my character is running for their life

Me > phew that was close
My internet > lol, wouldn't it be so funny if you were lagging and we rubber banded you back across the map to where you were?
Me > No.
Internet > Yes.

Lag in Nwn is the worst. You walk backwards, sideways and sometimes you think everything is Just peachy, then the screen does a double take and you teleport back to where you were.
*Didn't just do that* As an arrow flies hitting someone in the face.

When people leave things on the ground in the Hub when there's a trash can literally an inch away from their character.

Passive-Agressive soap boxes that do not actually contain soap.

Players that exploit the server/game by using whorish methods to put adamantine and/or artifacts in their shops. Spamming imp. invis all the way to the the boss and using a summon to distract said boss while they farm the addy vein/artifact chest, and/or weapon rack, then spam invis, portal lens, etc. as a quick retreat from said dungeon all for the false sense of "winning Arelith" are a poison among this server and serve no real purpose. The should be perma banned on site. Period.

People who exploit min/max builds for the sake of "winning" on a rp server. The server is about rp. Making a "can't lose" build is a reflection of your unworthyness to be here. Do everyone a favor and delete the game from your hard drive. You're a cancer and no one should suffer from your exsistance.

NOTE: This thread isn't about complaining about something that you expect to be fixed, or about other players (unless it's really in good jest). Just the ironic little things that leave you frustrated and needing to log off for a little bit.


I'll get it started. Don't you just hate when you finally level, and then you fail a couple of simple enchantment basin additions that knock you back to the previous level. I know it's only ~500 ish XP, but it's soooooooooooooo frustrating!

Just a reminder of the original topic, can we please not bash the other players and instead send such grievances privately to the dm's?
