Not sure why I don't play.  It's just always so quiet and no knights are ever on.  Perhaps I should hop on more and encourage others to do likewise?  The game could certainly stand to lean a little less to the hardcore side and be more friendly in allowing people to hop on and immediately start the action.  Not many people have the time or attention span to take 10-30 minutes to get optimally set up for a 2 hour killing spree.  Generally I rarely have more than an hour to dedicate to playing any game, so it makes Nanny terribly difficult. 

Oh, the other issue is with the very nature of the game:  no map, memory to get around, take a year off and you are lost again.   Unless you keep good notes, or have an insane memory.  I do not.  Exploring isn't my primary play style, I want to kill big things, it makes me happy. 

Sounds fascinating.  Is there anything good down there, I wonder? 

Yeah, it would be nice to see some regular activity on here again.  Seems like everything ground to a halt when Poogie disappeared...

<3

it's back up!

^^ I will ask for that for my birthday!!

Good old Russ!

I am glad someone posted here, I was going to last night, but was too lazy

You people are insane.....too hardcore for me....

I think the longest I have ever went was maybe 5-6 hours with random idlings throughout.  I love the game, but where do you find the time?

But then again, I started Nanny AFTER the golden age...

silence is golden....

Seems like an odd way to deal with your anger/depression if you ask me.  Personally id just lock the character or stop playing.

But to each their own.

Life > Death

MUD knowledge means a lot more than level...

Im a level 2 Paragon, and i barely know the MUD.  If i so chose (and had the time) i could reach level 10+ and still not know the MUD.  

Then you have people like Mr Yavathol who might only be level 3 paragon, but he is pretty close to having visited and knowing every area/room on the MUD, and knowing how to get there.  To me, that is greatness, since it means you have devoted a lot of time to playing the MUD to get as much as you can from it, and experience other peoples hard work that they have put into their area's.  

Not to mention he's a good friend to have for someone like me who gets lost on a minute by minute basis

Other than that, people that have solved ALL the quests unaided impress me, since some of the quests are far from logical and rather buggy.  Solving them all speaks highly of the effort and dedication the players have shown.

Cheese

It just really disgusts me for some reason, i despise it!

Also, i think the worst is when someone smothers something with parmesan, it is just so wrong.  Why the hell do people drown out the flavor of good food with that crap?  It irritates me no end!!

(yes, i realise that i need help)

Amen on Dune

Some Fyodor Dostoyevsky would be good too, Crime and Punishment or The Brothers Karamizov (sp? im tired...)

I like the elf herbalist person in Andra's area.  Seems to work quite well, and only 200gold a pop

Ladychris:  But what if pirates raid our food stores, or undead doves eat the food or something?  

A back-up plan to ensure survival is always prudent!

The inability to help somone I really care about when they are in a bad situation.

I just truly despise helplessness
