I was thinking of you guys allowing anon posting on the newbie board (still attached to their account just us players see anon). So people can post char related questions, ask questions they already asked on newbie channel or in game to others(but no one knew at the time) and not divulge alts. Also new people might feel more at ease asking questions there without judgement? Idk if this would be abused on day 1 by people who will go unnamed or not, but just a thought.

That's true Vanisse, but I was thinking more basic questions like "what's the diff between purple potions and vials of blood"

Nah they're way different. Vial is lvl 10 sanc, purple is lvl 3. Purple also has lvl 3 cure blindness which means it can be quaffed while blind, vial cannot be quaffed while blind.

Big difference.


Also, I actually think Erlwith has a great idea here. I know I'd use it. I can't really give a great reason why, but it feels like it would be different/less intimidating than Ask and Immortal.

do you mean like "An adventurer NEWBIE chats 'Where do I find the purple potions? '

b/c i like that idea, it masks characters and adds a lvl of mystique to them. i feel like vets who have been here forever n ever can tell who is good at pk n who is not based off of sentence structure n by lookin at them, so i think this meshes well with the recent change to the string that was removed based on how many secrets youve done. good move imo

Sorry no I mean on the newbie questions section of the message board. You can have "newbie" or "anon" as the poster name. It is just so that when I or you or anyone asks a question in game newbie/tells/etc., and doesn't get a suitable answer, they can post it here without having someone know who they play/creating a new forum account, and not bother the imms with questions like I posted before.

I like this idea because some people might feel a bit insecure about asking dumbass questions, especially if they are just getting back into the game after a long absence.
