The major problem with the way /who works

[dazman76]

Interesting... I have to admit, I'd never even realised it worked that way! I had assumed the obvious, that it was alphabetically sorted - and never actually checked or indeed suspected it may be otherwise. I'm now quite disappointed in myself I'm usually quite observant as *smack* oooowww where did that Kirosta come from...

So as the system stands at the moment if old players return to the game and you want to start a new character. Then the only way to do it if you don't want to have to keep talking about your old character is to make a new account.

just.... lie

there is also guild sections, both in here and in-game forum, where you can find out guild leader or just ask there why guild needs such past information. politely of-course.

Oh, cool.
So you´re actually promoting a system that lets you get ways with lies to your fellow players easier, so alts could easier be used as spies and other ****.
At least that´s what I´m reading from your posts.


Way to go to ease suspicions and make for a better player environment. *shakes head*

Btw. I find stooping so low as to create an alt to actually spy on others quite discomforting and highly anti-social.
And if not being able to spy effectively, because players have do have their suspicions (because other idiots already did actively spy on them) is cause for you to give up the game... well, sorry if I laugh.
Blaming others for having suspicions because they've been given cause to have them is pretty laughable too in my mind.

Just my opinion, so sue me.

Not everyone feels comfortable will lies.

it's just little white lie... call it Rp if you want (no offence to anyone hehe)

everyone know RPers are crazy ppl who delete their mains for simple reasons

Thanks for reminding me that we have this tool. I never thought of using it to see if a new character is on an old account. Great idea.

In another MMO I played, we could actually ban not just a player from our guild but their entire account. An even more effective tool than this one here.
