[QUOTE="Itzquahpilli, post: 2997436, member: 42333"] As we who live in the middle of nowhere like to say... eeeyep. I know that this is freeform. And I love being able to do things that completely violate the rules from time to time, since they're more actual "guidelines," after all. So go ahead and do your free resurrections. I'm just sick and tired of people having no decent reason for coming back. Yes, people should focus mainly on just having fun, but for the love of all that is good in this world, there's no fun in winning a battle when the person you killed just comes back five minutes later without being any weaker in any way! Throw us a bone here, we need some sort of reward for victory! I know at least one person who stopped playing the game entirely due to this and similar things. Plenty of revivals make complete sense and enhance the game. Just, once in a while... people need to stay dead. And, just saying, every single one of the examples I used was a death/revival that effected at least one of my characters, almost every time for the worse. I'm not just picking at random things I heard about, or making this up off the top of my head - these are true stories. The names have been removed to protect the innocent :) [/QUOTE]
