| 1: [Jun 8 1998] Swim! (Amph) |
| The latest hex change will prevent a lot of pointless deaths. Damn cool! |
| 2: [Jun 9 1998] Swimming (Ramik) |
| I'm just agreeing with Amph's note, but this is such a great change, I thought it deserved several kudos. Many thanks to Celetar (or whoever did this good thing). ---Ramik, who is just drying out from his last death. |
| 3: [Jun 12 1998] Swimming! (Daring) |
| I was saved by the changed today! Thanks! Daring, who has one amulet more than he might have. |
| 4: [Jun 16 1998] Bob! (Toadie) |
| For the first time, I spent some quality time with Bob today. Whoever coded him did a great job! I'm especially fond of his lament that "I was a big man in eristan. I even had a HUGE jewel. I lost it in the tunnels beneath the city. In the end, I blame society." One more example, with such Luminaries as Gashta, Lonozat and Virgil, of NPCs that, for no particularly important reason, are coded so well that they really add to the game. Thanks again, Toadie the NPC taunters |
| 5: [Jun 30 1998] Orcs (Raven) |
| This orc thing looks like it's going to be cool. Good job, whoever's running it. |
| 6: [Jul 7 1998] Underdark improvements (Daring) |
| Excellent! Daring, the cave dweller |
| 7: [Aug 4 1998] Tyca (Ral) |
| Congrats on making a cool packer, Slinky. Tyca the elf is pretty fun, and a good opponent for mid-level warriors. |
| 8: [Aug 7 1998] l#common (Raven) |
| Thanks for responding to the popular demand to have newbies speak decent l#common - I think it has been rewarded with a good crop of new players in recent weeks. |
| 9: [Aug 10 1998] Entering Town (Aroth) |
| I really like the way that if you enter from the east into town you end up by thad and if you enter from west you end up at outskirts. I know it has probably been implemented a while but I just thought I'd give it props.:) Don't know about any others but when I wanna go to Tobermore I take the East exit:) |
| 10: [Sep 23 1998] Hilarious! (Radu) |
| Being a dwarf, I've been exploring the tunnels beneath the city, which are much like the ones my family lived in while I was young. Imagine my surprise when I stumbled upon a brown narcoleptic hamster! Maybe I'm the only one that finds that completely hilarious, but it had me rolling for a good few minutes. Glad to see there's a sense of humor involved here. If I keep seeing things like that, I'll be sticking around here for a long, long time. Radu the dwarven spelunker. |
| 11: [Sep 28 1998] Mandy (Alsatia) |
| Thanks a bunch to whoever fixed Mandy up to buy more than a farthings worth of food. Good to see her with a full menu with such a huge variety of food. |
| 12: [Oct 5 1998] Lighthouse (Spiffy) |
| I need it! I love it! I want some more of it! heh Rad! I am going to be so covered in tattoos you wont be able to recognise me! congrats to Raven on the cool place.. Spifster |
| 13: [Oct 12 1998] Who (Stupor) |
| Cheers to the new Who, which doesn't make newbies think this place is a vaccuum. |
| 14: [Nov 1 1998] plant (Helmsbane) |
| congrats to whoever fixed "plant" so quickly i just posted that report less than a week ago |
| 15: [Nov 10 1998] Fountain ... (Pixel) |
If it's true that the fountain now resets independantly of reboots, I can only say : Well done ! Pixel |
| 16: [Nov 20 1998] FOOD! (Alsatia) |
| THANKS TO YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE WHO MADE MORE FOOD TO COOK UP!!! AND YES I KNOW I'M TYPING IN ALL CAPS..I'M SCREAMING CAUSE I'M SO EXCITED!!! HEH. -Alsatia who plays Alsatia "hehe" |
| 17: [Dec 11 1998] Board cleaning. (Gered) |
| Thank you to whoever cleaned the OOC boards of the hundreds of ancient posts. It's a lot less painful to read them now. :) Gered |
| 18: [Dec 17 1998] re:orcs (Lothos) |
| back in june Raven said 'this orc thing looks like it's going to be cool.' I agree, this rocks. I know alot of people will disagree but c'mon this is fun, people dyin', others hiding,this is what it is all about folks. Fun! So who ever coded this, I'd like to say GREAT JOB! Lothos |
| 19: [Dec 18 1998] Orcs. (Euros) |
| Yeah, I had a lot of fun too, the people who ran the quest, do you have any logs? I would have loved to make on, cept the term I'm on doesn't seem to support that. Euros |
| 20: [Jan 20 1999] Weights! (Daring) |
| Thanks for letting us elven mages carry more than 20 chunks of coal now :) |
| 21: [Jan 25 1999] Torcas and Lulpox - The new breed of npc's (Qualinst) |
| Wonderful job on these 2 npc's. Thanks for finally helping the older players some. Qualinst |
| 22: [Feb 09 1999] boards (Inami) |
| it's wonderful that all of the boards are not only less spammy, but also show which posts to pay attention to. great job! -inami |
| 23: [Feb 20 1999] Work well Done (Raesh) |
| It seems we have a super-active creator who has done a wonderful job of not only bug fixes, but new creations, ideas and implementations as well. Thanks Raven, the players of Dartmud appreciate your efforts. Raesh |
| 24: [Feb 26 1999] Another round of applause (Raesh) |
| Well it seems like we owe some praise to Arryn as well. A detailed set of descriptions is something that has been lacking from here for quite awhile. Thanks for taking the time to make your area more enjoyable for all. Raesh |
| 25: [Feb 28 1999] Praise.. n stuff (Spiffy) |
| I would like to say good job to Arryn and Raven both for the stuff they have done so far. Good job on the Area and the Boats.. Spiffy |
| 26: [Mar 01 1999] re: rowboats (Ral) |
| Congratulations on creating a fun way to spend time! Sailing around the ocean has given me something to do lately, not to mention some peace and quiet. Can't wait until tentacled horrors from the deep rip us from our boats and try to eat us alive! One of the first times I was in a rowboat, Qualinst was rowing around Tobermore and I was just pretty much watching. Suddenly, the boat started filling with water! Numerous "Acks!" flew back and forth, and as a joke I remove my bascinet and tried to bail water. To my surprise it was a command! That had me rolling in my chair! Nice work! Ral the swarthy sailor |
| 27: [Mar 02 1999] Well Done!! (Bond) |
| Would really like to thank whoever been putting much effort in changing buggy codes and adding new quest around here Well Done and Thanks for bringing back the fun here again!! **ps. whoever did the new quest this reboot I'm gonna beat u to it on the next, hehehe -P He who plays Bond... |
| 28: [Mar 03 1999] Ral.. (Spiffy) |
| Me thinks Ral reads too much H.P. Lovecraft.. Whoever heard of a tentacled horror.. hell, lets just get Raven to code Cthulhu himself.. maybe add a few deep ones? Hows that sound Ral? ;) Spiffy |
| 29: [Mar 04 1999] re: H.P. Lovecraft. (Ral) |
| All I've gotta say is, ask some of my sailing students how close they came to dying from a heart attack when they saw me emote "Ral lets loose a strangled cry and is pulled overboard", or Ral is pulled overboard by a writhing tentacle! Ok, I was bored and like messing around...but anything to increase your heart rate around here is fun. If that takes some nasty tentacled horror from the depths of the ocean preying on sailors, then that is A-okay with me. It would give me something to do while sailing, even if that means dying. ;) Captain Ral |
| 30: [Mar 07 1999] Re: Tentacle (Nimbus) |
| Seeing how I can never find the boat (because someone moved it! or SUNK IT!)... well seeing nasty creature in the water just doesn't sound too wonderful. However, I agree, Ral's messages are funny.. wouldn't be if the monster were real. I'd love to see some sort of sea monster, pirates, or other sea-event. Especially would like some deep-sea fishing. This isn't the complaint board or the idea board so my grats go out to the creator of armor bins, the plethora of things Raven has accomplished, and if someone gets lumbering and wood crafts I'll be posting again! -Nimbus |
| 31: [Mar 09 1999] picking up one more stackable thing! (Gus) |
| Gus kisses you, then wipes off its beard. thankyou for fixing that picking-up-one-more-chunk-of-ore concentration problem! yay! |
| 32: [Apr 08 1999] Quests (Eddard) |
| It's great to see new quests in production, and I'd like to give a hearty thanks to everyone responsible. Eddard |
| 33: [Apr 09 1999] Sea Monsters! (Ral) |
| All I gotta say is, ask and you shall receive (sometimes). I finally got to let loose a strangled cry and be attacked at sea by writhing tentacles! Does life get any better!? Captain Ral |
| 34: [Apr 11 1999] Re: Sea Monsters (Spiffy) |
| make that Cap'n Ral |
| 35: [Apr 19 1999] To ya'll (Tsnilauq) |
| I'd just like to say great job to all active and productive creators!! It's great to have new quests to do, and the things that have been done with items stacking, (by that I mean all the "stacking" bugs/features with pilfer, packs, and taking stacks). Also, in case noone noticed...great job with the lag-busting!! HIP HIP HORRAY!! 5 months ago this place lagged for 5 minutes at the ever popular "top of the hour". A week or two ago, it was laggin' pretty bad too...I heard many people complain and bitch, but never heard anyone say "Hmmm..It was like this not too long ago, and I think they fixed it!" Great job on all of it guys n gals. Thanks. Qualinst (backwards is just too damn hard to type) |
| 36: [Apr 20 1999] I agree (Deth) |
| I agree I have found new reasons to enjoy this world. I had stopped due to the lack of things to do(odd huh) But now it is like I am confused and overwelmed with things I can do. Thanks for create some fun for one of the little people. Deth Aka a buntch of other names |
| 37: [Apr 27 1999] Woo (Slinky) |
| It's always nice to get praise from the players. Even if it's not directed at me. *sniff sniff* jk If you have an idea, send me a mail, I'll read it I'll forward it to someone that can work on it, or discuss it with someone, if I can't do it. Bye, Slinky |
| 38: [Apr 28 1999] Jousting! (Talahaski) |
| I would just like the thanks all the creators involoved in these additions. I've been noticing a lot of changes, all of which I love. Especially the Jousting tents. They are great. It really allows us fighters to have a little fun with our skills instead of the usually, sitting around sparring with NPC's! well, thanks for the new changes, keep up the good work Talahaski |
| 39: [May 07 1999] Woowoo (Spiffy) |
| I would just like to say to everyone who worked on it.. Awesom job with the colors folks. DM really needed it! Spiffy |
| 40: [May 07 1999] re: Woowoo (Nimue) |
| I also would like to add my praise for the new colors, both in descriptions of things and in the hexes. Very nice. Nimue |
| 41: [May 08 1999] Thank... (Patrick) |
| I am really glad to see so many active coders around these days. There was a time when I thought this place is going to be abandon but apparently it does not seem so now. Lots of new things being added by the coders and things are again becoming interesting. Thanks to all those coders out there... really... thanks man. Rdgs Patrick P.S. Now I am addicted to here again. :) |
| 42: [May 13 1999] Thanks! (Vespiel) |
| This game is great, and for all those who contributed to making it, a great thanks! I love all those unique systems, the originality of so many things, the hexes and the economy above all :) Oh, and the colors on the hexes are an excellent addition. Not only does it make travelling outside more interesting, but it also makes it a bit easier and a bit safer (you'll see those trecherous hexes easier now :P). Thanks! Vespiel |
| 43: [May 15 1999] Great Job with everything!!!! (Caterus) |
| Hello all as most of you all know i was gone for about a month But when i came back i thought i somehow went into the wrong game So in other words Great Job on all you have done you really had me thinking i was in the wrong game So far everything i have seen i like Keep it up!!! **Caterus** |
| 44: [May 28 1999] Many things to appreciate (Kazarak) |
| Howdy! Just wanted to let all the coders know I really appreciate everything that has been done lately. I bitch more than not, and I need to point out the good things. I, like Patrick, thought this place was going to be abandonded some time ago but instead I have been seeing more positive changes in the past several months than the previous 4 to 5 years combined. Colored hexes and aura, labeled chests that aren't buggy, entire new areas that I never dreamed of, and lots and lots of little crap that I'm sure is boring to look for and fix, but makes the game run and feel so much better. There are all kinds of things I haven't even seen yet, and thats great! Thanks again! Kazarak |
| 45: [May 29 1999] Thanks to Raven!! (Ramik) |
| Just a quick note to say that Raven, for all his gruffness and random, violent, limb explosion, has got to be the single most helpful creator I've ever delt with. Today, when I told him of a bug with my save-chest, not only did he NOT blow me off (or up), he arrived and fixed the bug within 10 minutes. I very much appreciate creators like that (and there _are_ others) who are willing to put a couple of minutes into really helping a player out. Thanks, ---Ramik |
| 46: [May 31 1999] Thanks to the Creators (Caterus) |
| I dont know if i should post it but this is an ooc board Thank you for taking care of Connor and Dodie I know you must have gave it much thought and glade you did what you had to Thanks agen to all |
| 47: [Jun 01 1999] Connor and Dodie, etc. (Raven) |
We deleted Connor and Dodie not because of the pkilling. We like pkilling. They got deleted primarily because Connor lied through his teeth to me when I asked him about how many characters he had registered under different names. Turns out he's been doing this same stuff for years. At last count, he's had twenty-one different names from a wide variety of hotmail, aol, and other accounts, and apparently he lied about it just about every time he got caught, so eventually the creators in charge at the time decided he should just be deleted with extreme prejudice every time we catch him, although personally, I might have let him live if he hadn't been such a pathetic liar. I think he's back, but I can't prove it yet. We shall see. |
| 48: [Jun 02 1999] Good job (Karanda) |
| You guys are doing an awesome job. The new town is a nice spice in life Even tho it is a bitch to get to by rowboat ;) Keep up the good work guys ;) ;) P.S. No people I'm not Connor! |
| 49: [Jun 03 1999] Special thanks to the coders (Varaal) |
| I want to thank to tha creators who adjusted the chousing new char system so the stats can't be rolled . They could have banned me or interdict me to roll my stats but instad they have chousen to work hard and change the code ... You guys have all my admiration and respect , and i want to thank you again couz you are doing a great thing for role-playing ! Vaaral , the completely absolute newbi. |
| 50: [Jun 06 1999] OOC area change. (Ramik) |
| I LOVE the automatic notification of new notes in the OOC area. It means less time wandering aimlessly. Thanks to whoever's responsible. ---Ramik |
| 51: [Jun 09 1999] MY Resurection (Pock) |
| \This is a Thank you to Raven, for delaying the reboot on jun 9 so that i could be resurected. I am very greateful, and I would like to make it known that I appreciate it. The Player of Pock, The now skillless :) |
| 52: [Jun 25 1999] Influenza (Hrothgar) |
| I just want to say that whoever created the Influenza bug, Well Done. It's added a nice change of pace for the game. It's added some nice oppertunities for role playing, and character development. Great job. -Hrothgar the sick |
| 53: [Jun 25 1999] Thanks Goodness (Twophry) |
| As a skilled candlemaker who has been making hundreds of candles at a time, I really appreciate the fact that candles are now stackable. why, prior to this I would fill 2 scrolls of my screen with candles, now they all stack in a nice neat pile! |
| 54: [Jul 15 1999] Raids (Krista) |
| Thanks to whoever was responsible for the raids. I enjoyed them. Also thanks to my fellow adventurers, whom I wouldn't have survived them without. | / |/ |\ | \rista |
| 55: [Jul 17 1999] Dismas (Kye) |
| If Dismas isn't the coolest wiz I ever met someone slap me silly. That's all, Kye |
| 56: [Jul 18 1999] Role Playing (Artag) |
| I just wanted to post a note and say how amazingly wonderful I think dartmud is. Dartmud's role-playing focused mission is only very loosely followed, but the mere presence of it makes the most important moments on the mud the most fun. Artag died for good today. ~9000 skill points, at least 3 times better than any other character I've ever played down the drain. And you know what? This was my second most enjoyable night of playing Dartmud. Because I like Artag, and I was emotionally involved in his death. And being able to share in an experience like his death without actually having to have it is the best thing a fantasy game can do. Sure it sucks to lose him. And, as you'll see on other boards, I don't really know that I think I should have lost him. But it's a game, and it's the playing that's important. And Dartmud gave me a wonderfully fun environment to play in. So all those of you who don't role-play, or bend the rules here and there - you're only really hurting yourself. Try it the right way, and you might find that it's much more rewarding. Artag wasn't always role-played well, but I guarantee that my next character, who you hopefully won't be able to associate with Artag, will be. Thanks all. And special thanks to Fermat, Feanor, Darkstar, and the other original architects (are any of them still around?) Artag the dwarf. |
| 57: [Jul 18 1999] Ogma (Artag) |
| Ogma was very helpful to me during my death experience today, and I wanted to thank him. Well, actually, he wasn't *very* helpful. It he'd been very helpful I'd be alive. But he was exactly as helpful as he should have been, which is much better than him being very helpful. Thank you Ogma. Keep up the good work. Artag |
| 58: [Jul 21 1999] Desla and Celetar (Panayiot) (Redas) |
| A load of thanks to Desla and Celetar who took the time to help me out yesterday when I was so confused about how a woman's screaming killed me. Panayiot the 2000 year old catfolk |
| 59: [Jul 22 1999] A big thanks to Desla for helping repair the Bank (Bigfoot) |
| Thanks for working on the bank and doing what you could to restore lost accounts, even though I did lose some money which was made between those 10 days, I am very gratefull to have any account with Gordon. |
| 60: [Jul 22 1999] Thank you Desla ;) ;) (Karanda) |
| Thank you for taking the time to figure out the bank. I would rather lose 10 days of money then my whole life savings ;) ;) Hats off to you friend ;) |
| 61: [Jul 28 1999] whoa! what mud is this? ^_^ (Helmsbane) |
| hello... are you sure this is still dartmud? i've been gone since november (yeesh!) and the place has taken on a completely different look... there's so much new stuff... things are definitely looking up! back to catching up on the ooc boards ;_; -helmsbane |
| 62: [Jul 29 1999] Raven (Karanda) |
| Thank you Raven for coding a whistle for our animal training. Might just be alittle gadget but it saves alot of time waiting for our voices to return What to say thanks also for the fast reply ;) Hats off to all you coders ;) Karanda |
| 63: [Aug 06 1999] Syco (Cloud) |
| Would like to say... Great job to whoever coded Syco the ogre! For once I was wondering if he is a player but fingering Syco told me otherwise. Nicely done! Rdgs |
| 64: [Aug 09 1999] NPC's (Aveius) |
| Hellos The last few Npc's I have seen, and talk with have been great Whoever made Tialle did a great job it gets borring in HH when you are by your self But she came by and had lots of things to say Hope she Is Perm in the game Once again Good job to all the Creators and Thanks!! **Aveius** |
| 65: [Aug 13 1999] Alignment (Eddard) |
| The alignment change fighting brings on is great. Just wanted to show my appreciation after complaining about it for all that time. Player of Eddard |
| 66: [Aug 13 1999] Nails. (Euros) |
| A pile of: 120 nails. Each one is: A tiny spear with a flat head. (Or something to that effect). Whatever it is, I like it! I know a carrot is a carrot, so praise to whoever did that. |
| 67: [Aug 15 1999] Many Thanks! (Nimue) |
| To Desla and Raven for saving me from a rather nasty bug -- I just wanted to say thanks for not only fixing it, but for responding so darn quickly to my (frantic?) tell. You guys rock. :) Nimue |
| 68: [Aug 15 1999] Aliases (Kimar) |
| Thanks to whoever took the time so that we may see our aliases by starting letter. Save a LOT of hassle for those of us that have way too many aliases anyway. Kudos to you all! Kimar |
| 69: [Aug 15 1999] Cheers! (Vespiel) |
"Some days, I wonder why I try." Desla, Jul 23 1999 Well, I am certainly glad you and other creators do. I don't play muds. This is the only one I do. But I can't tear myself away (not that I try :P). So, in my tri-monthly tradition of posting on this board (so it seems) let me just make an overall cheers to all the creators. This world is simpy fantastic. And how many of us forget that! I took a stroll down the countryside the other day, and every time I do travel, I get reminded of what we have here. Not only are there cities, great geography, sailable oceans, different lakes, mines, farm-clusters, traveling merchants and a variety of other things, but the world is so full of things... caves, openings under trees, little gaps that turn out to be large tunnels, temples and many other features. I can't even imagine the days of coding that must have gone into this place. And how often do we forget that! We, players, have a tendency of complaining and nitpicking about details, but if one takes a look at what's here, those problems seem petty. We have a complete fantasy world here, risen to life, with features and details from here to the moon! I dare you to find something remotely similar out there. Sorry for the spam, but I get amazed here on regular basis every now and then :) Finally, individual thanks to Raven, for being both professional and helpful during my recent death experience. I had what I needed in front of me, but the trauma of my death seemed to hit IRL too :) Also, Larry's consignment shop, while nothing new, often makes the world go round. It certainly raises the economy. Vespiel |
| 70: [Aug 19 1999] New clothes setting (Valia) |
| I like it. No more need be said. __ __ \ / \ / \/ ALIA (player of) |
| 71: [Aug 27 1999] NPCs (Vespiel) |
| Heh, whoever coded Ap and Firien... big kudos! I hope they are permanent NPCs. They are hillarious together! :) And lately, I find it more amusing to listen to NPCs at times, than practicing skills :) Sometimes, you have to finger them, just to ensure they are not PCs. Take a look at this: Firien shuffles in from the south. Firien yawns. Ap exclaims in common, 'I know, it's so boring around here these days!' Firien nods. Ap smiles happily at you. Firien asks, 'What're you so happy about?' Ap says in common, 'I really like that catfolk. She's sweet.' Firien smirks. Well, other than getting my sex wrong, they freaked me out for a second :) They ARE coded NPCs, though. I am sure of that! :) Er... aren't they...? Vespiel |
| 72: [Sep 01 1999] Raven (Nimbus) |
| Thank you for errecting a board in a place not too far away. Also thank you to all the people who worked on bins, racks, and any other containers that have effectively reduced lag. Thank you to Arryn for he's done and will do, and why don't you come out and take a few bows now and then? :-) Thank you to Ogma for lots of things - clothing, sheep, Gilmore, and everything else that I can't remember. Thank you to Celetar, Slinky, Cobra, Desla, and Teehmar.. nice bunch of folks. There are many more who have contributed to what we now have. In any event, I know I don't use this board often and I thought it high time I rectify that. Nimbus |
| 73: [Sep 04 1999] Thanks Raven (Caterus) |
| I would just like to say Thank you Raven, for spending time Fixing my 3 pets Thanks alot and Keep Up the Good work! **Player of Caterus** |
| 74: [Sep 04 1999] Pets Fixed (Raven) |
| Everybody should have their pets fixed, population control and all that... |
| 75: [Sep 04 1999] re: Pets Fixed (Selena) |
| You sound a lot like Bob Barker at the end of every "The Price is Right", Raven. :) |
| 76: [Oct 01 1999] Capitalization (Selena) |
| Whoever coded the automatic capitalization of the first letter of each sentence, thank you from the bottom of my lazy-typer heart. :) Selena |
| 77: [Oct 03 1999] re: capitalization (Zephyr) |
| Ditto Zephyr |
| 78: [Oct 04 1999] Re : Capitalization (Pixel) |
Even better though, was coding it so putting a space before the first word would stop it being capitalized. Summoned animals are very literal about their command word :) Pixel |
| 79: [Oct 07 1999] Ubahli fixed (Nezahru) |
| Thank you Raven. I rebutted that post you referred to anyways. |
| 80: [Oct 13 1999] Ubahli (Nimbus) |
| I'd like to second the sentiment of thanks for the return of Ubahli. He has been gone a long time. Thank you! |
| 81: [Oct 14 1999] Using my smell and hearing (Vasquez) |
| Just a bit ago I was lost in the hexes in the dark. I couldn't see a thing Yet My sense of smell and hearing saved me. I was able to hear the water of the river and make my way back to town. Thanks to whatever creator coded this. Now I can also find my way around town at night, being able to smell the insence of the healer. Thanks Vasquez |
| 82: [Oct 15 1999] Senses (Vespiel) |
| Yes, the senses code is trully memorable. It adds to races, especially those who rely on one form of sense or more. It helps in scouting as well as it opens a whole new world of sensations. Thanks! Vespiel |
| 83: [Oct 17 1999] Kimonos (Vespiel) |
| "Ask and ye shall receive". I forget who said that. Probably some divine presence. But it works on DartMUD too. Kimonos are coded, and merely 2 or so days after the post on the idea board. Thanks! Vespiel |
| 84: [Oct 30 1999] Tobermore Bank (Aveius) |
| Thank you for putting the a Bank in tobermore good work on it well everyone has asked for it but dont see meny posting there thanks for it Player of Aveius The Healer |
| 85: [Oct 31 1999] Tobermore Bank (Pock) |
| I'd Like to repeat Aveius thanks about the New Bank in Tobermore. I like it, and have used it. Player of pock |
| 86: [Nov 05 1999] Crafting psychology (Bralvokia) |
| Many thanks to whoever coded the crafting message: "You succeed in crafting a <whatever>!" For without that ever-so-subtle exclamation mark giving me a tiny feeling of excitement, I would have gone (more) insane attempting to play a crafter. player of Bralvokia isn't sure if she's being sarcastic or not |
| 87: [Nov 07 1999] Chess (Nimbus) |
| Thank you to whomever provided this. It is the perfect addition to the wood working craft and gives something else to do when not practicing. -N |
| 88: [Nov 16 1999] Armor and Weapon racks (Adarkts) |
| Thanks to whoever fixed the lagginess on the racks. 45 seconds to a minute to dress and undress is now cut to less than 2 seconds. GOOD JOB!! -Adarkts |
| 89: [Nov 16 1999] Recipes (Alsatia) |
| Thanks to whoever it was that added a million more things to cook up. It got kind of stale cooking basically the same thing all the time. I mean, slicing cakes into pieces being the highlight of cooking is pretty lame. Okay, I'm stretching the truth of my excitement a bit. -Al |
| 90: [Nov 23 1999] Thanks Giving (Pock) |
| This is a note thinking Ogma and Whom Ever else was involved in the Release of Thanks Giving style food. It helps to make the environment a bit more festive and break up the constant string of Hardtack, apples and Raw meat. Po |
| 91: [Nov 26 1999] I second that! (Nimue) |
| I also enjoyed the new food on Thanksgiving. It made for a really fun day and I wanted to thank all that worked on it! Nimue |
| 92: [Nov 30 1999] Thanks Flandor (Hrothgar) |
| I'd just like to thank Flandor for his prompt responce and assistance to a special request. Thank you. -Hrothgar |
| 93: [Nov 30 1999] Lumbering (Eddard) |
| I can juggle trees! Woohoo! Just wanted to say, well done on lumbering, Ogma. GRUNT |
| 94: [Dec 01 1999] re Lumbering (Nimbus) |
| Thanks Ogma! -Nimbus |
| 95: [Dec 04 1999] Raven (Caterus) |
| Thanks Raven good working the All command for the pets!!! **Player of Caterus** |
| 96: [Dec 12 1999] Lamp posts (Selena) |
| Very nice addition to the atmosphere of Eristan, and useful too. Eristan is actually looking like a city now. Selena |
| 97: [Dec 17 1999] Thank You. (Pock) |
| Hi, This note is to thank Raven for taking time to look into the problem with my pet. In the span of twenty four hours he had my pet working again. So, Thanks Raven! Player of Pock |
| 98: [Dec 17 1999] Thanks Pol (Cerote) |
| I'd like to thank him for taking the time out to answer questions in depth. Some might respond to a question by saying X is this way because it has to be, and leave it at that. He'll promptly answer, and give some background and logic behind decisions. |
| 99: [Dec 18 1999] reading these boards (Amenhotep) |
| I just noticed something pretty nifty and wanted to praise whomever is responsible. When I came into this area and saw how many boards I hadnt read I thought that was cool, but then when I saw how many notes i hadnt read on each board I thought I'd either have to read all the notes or condemned to having the same message on entering this areaODODODODODODOD message upon entering always tell me I have unread boards, but after reading just a couple of the most recent notes and then walking past the entrance I noticed that the boards that I read some notes on were no longer unread. Possibly, I might be the only person who thinks this is worth praising, but regardless, I just wanted to say I noticed and appreciated the feature. amen. |
| 100: [Dec 27 1999] Stuff (Vespiel) |
| So many things and improves have been added to DartMUD lately. I left for a bit, and when I came back, I could hardly recognize the game :) I personally enjoy the additions, including the new farming crops, the lumbering and fishing changes. And how about that board of chess!? I was amazed to see chess not only craftable but fully coded. Finally, to whoever made the Christmas additions, many thanks. These things really add to the spirit of things... at least for me :) My favorite was Carol the Singing Lady, who sang the entire 'The Twelve Days of Christmas'... but DartMUD style :) Thanks! Vespiel |
| 101: [Dec 31 1999] Yay for Raven! (Ramik) |
| Raven deserves a huge thank you from each and every fighter on this MUD for his recent restoration of SD to pre-nerfing levels. It's really nice to see that a creator listens to our gripes and arguments once in a while. Although I still wouldn't say that warriors are "up to par" with mages just yet, this is a strong and much-needed first step. I really appreciate it, Raven. Thanks, Ramik |
| 102: [Jan 01 2000] re: Yay for Raven! (Eddard) |
| It's so nice to see something like this get done! Thank you much, Eddard the orc GRUNT |
| 103: [Jan 11 2000] New cloth colors. (Bralvokia) |
| Thanks to whoever was behind the gold and silver cloth. Wanted to see that for a long time now. player of Bralvokia PS- Could 'cloth of gold cloth' desc maybe be changed? 'cloth of gold' or 'gold cloth' would be nice. Would be even better if the fabric type showed, too. |
| 104: [Jan 12 2000] Cloth of Gold and Cloth of Silver (Ogma) |
| Firstly, I know that 'cloth of gold cloth' sounds kind of clunky, but it has to be this way to show up correctly when someone crafts an item of clothing from it. 'Cloth of gold' is the proper medieval term for it, and clothing would be described as a 'cloth of gold cloak' or some such thing. If it was called gold cloth, clothing would say 'a gold cloak' which just doesn't sound right to me. Secondly, the way cloth of gold is made, the fiber it uses doesn't show much at all. Gold leaf is wrapped around thread then woven in a satin weave (the weft going over several warp threads, then under one), making a smooth gold cloth. Just think of it as the medieval equivalent of gold lame' :) Ogma |
| 105: [Jan 13 2000] Re: Cloth of gold/silver. (Bralvokia) |
| Ah. Makes sense now. Thanks for the clarification. player of Bralvokia wonders if Ogma gets called an authenticity mavin. *grin* |
| 106: [Jan 17 2000] Various Thanks (Terran) |
| To Pol, for getting music back up and running, and to Cronel, for helping out when Galron started crafting 0's. Good work and thanks. --Terran |
| 107: [Jan 17 2000] Graven (Caterus) |
| Howdy all Hey Pol great job on Graven I like his story that he tells now plus it helps my language#dwarven too! ;) **player of Caterus** |
| 108: [Jan 20 2000] Me again (Terran) |
| This time to Raven, for putting time into various oddities with the Silver coin, and to whoever got my skull collection back for me after the crash. Thanks. --Terran |
| 109: [Jan 23 2000] Kennel Pet Refomatter (Pock) |
| Hello All, This note is to praise the Creator, (Probably Raven), who put the pet reformater. It helps to solve that problem when, a Pet dies and is resessed, the is rebooted, and becomes unresponsive. While may not be able to carry a pet to teh shop to get reformatted, it gives players a way to solve the problem with out needed creator intervention. Thnaks, Pock save |
| 110: [Jan 24 2000] Armbands. (Pock) |
| This note is for Ogma, Ogma thanks for fixing the armband crafting code. Pock, the accessorized. |
| 111: [Jan 30 2000] Thank you Ogma (Hrothgar) |
| I'd just like to say thank you to Ogma for all the little things he adds to the game, that makes it such a joy to play DM. -Hrothgar |
| 112: [Feb 13 2000] Missing stuff (Pock) |
| Hello, I do not know, who fixed it, but this this is a thank you to the person or persons who returned the bin, shelf and dog to the Medi Room. Player or Pock |
| 113: [Feb 15 2000] thanks Again. (Pock) |
| I would like to thank to whom ever fixed Marsh. Cheers, Pock |
| 114: [Feb 17 2000] thanks all (Mosiah) |
| i just want to thank everybody who makes this mud a fun and addicting place to spend my time ;) -me |
| 115: [Feb 20 2000] Tirachi Stuff (Terran) |
| Thanks to whoever expanded Felora's stock. Fills a very palatable gap. --Terran |
| 116: [Feb 22 2000] Lumum. (Anxtas) |
| I like his change to speaking gnomish. |
| 117: [Mar 01 2000] Parrot (Aveius) |
| Hellos I dont know who coded it...But I love it I hope they end up as pets for sale at tobermore who ever did it Great job on the parrot!!! **player of Aveius** |
| 118: [Mar 01 2000] The Charmer (Asp) |
| Just wanted to say it is refreashing to have creators like Flandor. He is prompt, polite, and very helpful. He does not abuse the "creator power" of 'I'll blow off your head' or try for some witty remarks to poke fun. My hat is off to you Flandor, please continue with the good work. Asp |
| 119: [Mar 07 2000] Nice (Talahaski) |
| Just saying I like the new Finger Command. Also the toggle on/off misses looks great, seems a lot easier than using that detail. Oh and thanks Delsa for getting me out of that bugged room. cannot comment on the ambush feature yet, have not had time to test it. Talahaski |
| 120: [Apr 03 2000] sewing (Talahaski) |
| I love the new embroider stuff. Thanks Ogma Talhaski |
| 121: [Apr 03 2000] Ambush fix (Daring) |
| Glad the conc bug has been fixed... One less way to get a cheesy perma-kill. |
| 122: [Apr 03 2000] Re: Ambush fix (Raven) |
| Yeah, great. One more nerfed skill. Glad you're happy. |
| 123: [Apr 04 2000] re: Re: Ambush fix (Eddard) |
| Would also like to say thanks for removing this unintended method of permakilling. And Raven, this "nerf" simply removed a highly abusive aspect of ambush which, in my opinion, was highly unbalancing to this game. If that upsets you, I don't know what to say. Eddard the orc |
| 124: [Apr 04 2000] ambush (Asp) |
| The conc hit was unbalancing, but now that it has been removed why not put ambush back to it's original way. Or at least allow it to cause more damage at higher levels. Gfb and offensive does more damage at higher levels why not ambush. Whats the point in having 2500 checks in ambush when you do the same damage as someone with 1200? Asp |
| 125: [Apr 05 2000] asps points (Serafin) |
| i agree with asp though i gasp at the idea of 2500 checks, i think and ive always said this that if a player is willing to put in the time to work on any skill then the rewards shouldnt just level off they should keep rising, if anything learning should just get slower and slower in addition to needing a bigger challenge. though i wouldnt want to see this abused by people with a million darkstaves, i think theres prolly a way to do a real check and make it so anyone who was insane enough to get 2500 plusses is rewarded, and if as ive often read on ooc boards its so easy for some to get that high within a short span of time, then obviously the problem is in the difficulty of learning the skill and wont be solved by caps. (in order to make this note belong here id like to say that ive liked the way the game has grown both in areas and in the robustness of things available for players to get into. skills, crafts, etc, that i think the creators are doin a good job, and am glad i've stuff around. |
| 126: [Apr 05 2000] re 164 (Serafin) |
| thats s'posed to be stuck around not stuff around. *sigh* s.f.t.s. |
| 127: [Apr 05 2000] re:ambush (Talahaski) |
| The only problem i see with putting ambush back to a higher effectiveness is that with the learning challenege. When a skill is lowered, it allows player to build up to a much high skill level much easier because the skill is less effective. Now, if you then make the skill more effective again, those players who build extremly high levels of ambush when the skill was less effective will now have a ambush skill that is much higher than any other person could ever raise the skill too under the "more effective" version. I hope this makes sense, its kind of a hard topic to explain. *shrug* Talahaski |
| 128: [Apr 05 2000] ambush (Cerote) |
| I'm with Asp, change it back for balance sake. |
| 129: [Apr 05 2000] shall we... (Serafin) |
| move this discussion to another board? i see what you are saying tala but i dont think it applies [Dbecaause as i see it, it was more of a cap on damage than lowering the effectiveness, so i dont think it made for easier learning, but then again i wouldnt really know either from the coder end or the learner end. for some reason i've stopped learning anything :) |
| 130: [Apr 06 2000] the genius is in the details (Dorche) |
| I'd just like to stop my immersion for one second to thank the creators for the world they've created here. What graps my sense of awe firmly is how detailed everything is. I know that for any knowledge to be "discovered" here, it must first be imagined and realized in the mind of a creator. If not, its just a great idea with no basis to exist here. I was pleased that a certain observation of mine yielded new knowledge for me to use something already known in a new way that is effective and that is what makes me want to post. I racked my brains for this idea, and already a coder had been there, anticipating me, to make it possible. My hat is off to you all, coders of Dartmud. Thank you for letting me wander about in your world here. Dorche the gnome |
| 131: [Apr 15 2000] Okay, so you haven't been slacking.. (Tomnoddy) |
| And I thought Raven and Ogma had just been more quiet lately because they were drumming up some scheme to kill us all off and start over. Okay, I was wrong, and I'll be the first to admit it. These new changes are amazing. Obviously you guys put a lot of work into this, and it's a major change to the mud. All for the best, and all I have to say is, bravo! Note: I'm glad rowans are still screwed. |
| 132: [Apr 16 2000] Nice job (Kattia) |
| I have to say that I really like this new dating system. Makes me feel more like my character has a history to it. Thanks for all the hard work. Kattia |
| 133: [Apr 16 2000] nice (Serafin) |
| i love walkin into some big change i had absolutely no clue was even being considered. makes me feel like on any given day all kinds of new cool things are possible. I just wanna say nice work on thinkin and implementing the changes, looks and sounds like itll be great. im looking forward to all the nuances and gotta say nice job keeping this under your hats while you worked on it. twas a nice surprise. s.f.t.s. |
| 134: [Apr 30 2000] Who needs a reboot anyway? (Eddard) |
| 6 days and not even over a minute on the hourly lag..well done! Eddard the orc (who refuses to open any bins) |
| 135: [Apr 30 2000] cheers (Serafin) |
| hey i really like the old ideas summary cool beans. |
| 136: [May 16 2000] New Feudalism (Aveius) |
You guys out did your self on this one I think everyone is going to like the idea the old way did seem like you protected the throne it self and not the lord or castle holder Players have tryed to make Knights and other things but it was not as fun as the name With this I see nothing but more and better RolePlaying from chars Plus might even get large parties together to take over castles Great job on all who set this up **player of Aveius** |
| 137: [May 20 2000] sit/stand (Talahaski) |
| Nice implimentaion of the sit/stand mudwide. Talahaski |
| 138: [May 20 2000] the who (Finwraith) |
| I love the new who |
| 139: [May 21 2000] Sit/Stand/lie and new who. (Griffith) |
| Good job....... I also enjoyed using the lie command to lie on the floor after getting all boozed up with a couple bottles of scotch/Vodka... Was fun.... ;) |
| 140: [May 24 2000] Thanks Coders (Ghaleon) |
| I wanted to Post a Thank you coders for all you have done in the last few months Keep up the good work! **Ghaleon the Orc** |
| 141: [May 27 2000] Re: Thanks. (Katkt) |
| I want to second Ghaleon's sentiment. Active, ongoing creation is one of the thing that makes Dartmud intersting and fun. The creators are here as their own recreation, just as we players are, and I want to thank them all for their time and effort. Things you do right attract much less notice than things you do that people don't like. Thanks for all the cool things. And thanks for trying on all the things that I personally don't think are so cool. Katkt |
| 142: [Jun 08 2000] I rarely post at much less on this board!! (Bishop) |
| i have to say good job to whom ever added the ansi to the directions (although i zoom about and hardly notice them) i am sure this will be great for the new people and the new areas i may goto. Also the kneel , sit, lay, and ect, where nice touches.. Bishop still looking for Arryn's Show quick spells list.. :) |
| 143: [Jun 10 2000] Disciplinary action posts. (Taicre) |
| Both informative and pessimistically entertaining to read. Glad to see it. |
| 144: [Jun 11 2000] colors, among other things (Nobusoku) |
| i would just like to thank the creators for all of the great changes made here. the most obvious of which is the application of color to just about everything that needs it, or doesn't need it and just looks nice with it. -nobu |
| 145: [Jun 26 2000] Thanks! (Aveius) |
| Thank you very much for fixing whatever cause my horse to droped dead again Meny thanks! **player of Aveius** |
| 146: [Jun 29 2000] moneybags (Talahaski) |
| I would just like to thank whoever coded moneybag and pouches to automatically set themselves as the default moneybag when you wear the bag/pouch. This may have been coded a while ago but i just took notice of it recently. Talahaski |
| 147: [Jul 08 2000] Tirachi Wildlife (Ophirphagus) |
| Don't think we didn't notice. :-) |
| 148: [Jul 17 2000] beekeeping (Kazarak) |
| Thanks so much for the beekeeping Ogma. I've wanted to see that for years, being a bee nut myself. Umm..now if you could just code bendadryl shots. What other mud has so many unique things to do as dartmud!! Its great! Kazarak the apprentice beekeeper, wielder of welts. |
| 149: [Jul 29 2000] NPCs and the cold. (Adawyn) |
| Congrats to whoever made the NPCs scream and run out of the room when someone demonstrates a cold/flu symptom. It was the funniest thing I've seen today and makes them seem so much more like real players now. |
| 150: [Aug 04 2000] thank you creator(s) (Maia) |
| for speedy, quality service. |
| 151: [Aug 09 2000] Love it! (Devlah) |
| Just wanted to mention, that this MUD just keeps getting better and better, everytime I look at it. It seems as though every couple of days, something new and interesting happens. I've been on quite a few different MUDs, and I would have to say, this is the best out of all of them. I have a little project suggestion, which I believe I'll post on the Idea board now.... Thanks for making such an excellent game. -------Devlah |
| 152: [Aug 09 2000] Hmmm... (Devlah) |
| Strike that. I just realised my idea would be pointless to suggest at this time. :P |
| 153: [Aug 13 2000] Skills List and Economy (Aenea) |
| I'm glad to see that diversity of product is now a factor in the economy. I think that should liven things up a bit. I also think being able to see your skills list a page at a time is GREAT! I'm glad to see things still moving ahead! Thanks! |
| 154: [Aug 21 2000] craking down (Aldeborn) |
| thanks raven and all you other creators for being so good at stopping cheaters and making the game fair for everyone so no one exploits a bug to get 5000000000000000000000suns in their account or multiple players who help each other out from the same rl person, and from stopping someone from doing whatever else gives someone an unfair advantage, it makes the game way better to not have a vamp get to aggie on every skill in 1 day due to a bug thanks again, aldeborn |
| 155: [Aug 28 2000] thanks (Aldeborn) |
| for making some npcs scream and run out of the room when you pat them on the head is great now no more annoying npcs saying when did that happen and he did? during a conversation like in the hh where you're not allowed to kill them aldeborn |
| 156: [Sep 07 2000] On the fly (Dorche) |
| I was out collecting mist with others. We grumbled amongst ourselves that we could not see any response to collecting it, whether we did it at all, or whether it failed or not. This is old news to mist collectors. We continued after making some message triggers to let others in the room see the progress made. Immediately we noticed that 3 collections garnered 6 trigger messages. My first thought was...Veia... you really need to study the zmud manual more. But it soon became clear that someone had started feedback messages about collecting and implemented it before we could set up the first triggers. Wow! All i can gather is a creator must have been listening and between our grumbles and trying to set triggers, fixed it so we could see it. Insta-response! Now granted this is a small thing, but to have it done so quickly, and apparently on the fly, felt wonderful. Thank you for taking the time to make it right. -Dorche the gnome |
| 157: [Sep 21 2000] a BIG thank you to Raven and Teehmar (Talahaski) |
| Thanks for restoring my character after a bug perma killed me. For the people intresting in knowing what happened. I died while holding the corpse of Reason. Reason typed die and ended up perma killing both of us. I belive Raven was able to fix the bug too! Talahaski |
| 158: [Sep 22 2000] Last (Merkle) |
Whew! What a nasty bug! -Player of Merkle |
| 159: [Oct 03 2000] Recent changes to plaque (Merkle) |
Just a quick thank you for the recent bug fixes/improvements to the nobility plaque. It is a small thing for those who are not affilliated with a house, but for those who are it is important. :) -Player of Merkle |
| 160: [Oct 10 2000] Thanks (Daring) |
| Raven restored several items of a personal nature, including my Crystal Scarab, which had disappeared to a bug. |
| 161: [Oct 20 2000] Kudos! (Mosiah) |
| Just praising for the gods restoring my interest in questing, wondering what would do such a thing, do a quest and find out ;) -M |

| 163: [Oct 28 2000] conc (Eucalyptus) |
| Thanks I know I don't say much But I want to thank you guys for the good work you do with so few creators around. I really want to thank you for that little thing you guys did that I posted on the conf. board You were so quick actin on it. and didn't have to be You guys really ROCK! Again I do thank you very very much!! Eucalyptus the strange and bizarre mohnkee |
| 164: [Nov 03 2000] YAY Ogma! (Aveius) |
| Good work on the spell list I really like what you have done This helps alot when you have alot of spells now I can look at the Group I want without scrolling back to see the spell I wanted! good job I know it must been a headache to do Thank alot Ogma! **player of Aveius** |
| 165: [Nov 03 2000] Ditto (Devlah) |
| Yeah, what Aveius said. :) |

| 168: [Nov 04 2000] Jousting (Tragic) |
| no one going to post about the award given to griffith for his flawless victory? congradulations griffith, if you ask be its because you a better rider than anyone who contended |
| 169: [Nov 05 2000] Jousting!!! (Griffith) |
| The entire day was fun, hope events like it become more popular. I enjoyed contending, there are a few other things involved in winning a joust. Riding is a big factor, and certain defending and offensive skills also seem to help . Anyhow it was a fun filled day, and i think a congrats needs to go out to War and Parn for making it happen. Also anyone else who participated in making the day happen, congats it was a total success!!! thank you, player of Griffith the orc |
| 170: [Nov 06 2000] Hooray for jousts and all that nifty stuff (Elyth) |
| It's not often there's an event taking place that you can enjoy participating in even when you lose. Congrats to all the other competitors who seem to have a better sense of good sportsmanship than players of RL sports. And let's not forget the spectators, even the ones who didn't do anything, they added a lot of atmosphere to the event. (And after a month playing a mud where there isn't even RP it was damn nice to see ppl content to just sit around jabbering instead of frantically killing critters or trying to get rich.) And last but not least, everyone who healed our sorry asses when we got beat up. :P -Player of Elyth has had just a bit TOO much coffee :) |
| 171: [Nov 06 2000] helpful wiz (Yagkosha) |
| i havent played in over 2 years, tried to hop on but didnt know my passwd. Flandor was quick to help and was very nice about it -- much appreciated. :) . |
| 172: [Nov 08 2000] Sal's "SZ" (Aveius) |
| I was in town and got this SZ from sal A voice seems to say: 'The tax office is open. - Sal' Good work on that, it helps alot to know when the tax office is open thanks for adding the SZ If I am not mistaken it was Raven right? I remeber a test from before anyway thanks alot this helps me and the others fellow tax payers alot **Player of Aveius** |
| 173: [Nov 08 2000] A sz? (Baraki) |
| Doesnt Sal shout when he opens his place? |
| 174: [Nov 08 2000] Sal (Elyth) |
| Um yeah, but if you're hiding out in a castle when it opens you're not likely to know about it. :P |
| 175: [Nov 08 2000] Nice addition (Hrothgar) |
| Great job Ogma! I really like the colors you've added to shouts, tells, and death-tells. It really helps such things stand out, esp. when your in a spammy room. Well done!. |
| 176: [Nov 11 2000] Super speedy Response! (Bakuretsu) |
| Right after the reboot, I found out that I was missing some stuff and then when I posted it in the confidential board, the problem was resolved in a matter of minutes.. I think less than five minutes. That is QUICK! Go Ogma and his really fast reply! I dunno if anyone else was missing stuff though. -Bakuretsu Yamitenshi |
| 177: [Nov 11 2000] missing (Tragic) |
| lets see, i was missing a chest bin bin food 60 sapphires this time.. all my armor.. gee, would you be nice and fix that too ogma? dont matter, i just made 70 freakin suns thanks |
| 178: [Nov 12 2000] Ogma, Flandor, Raven (Talahaski) |
| First, I would like to thank everybody who helped with the wedding especially Ogma for making many of the custom items used during the wedding. I'll mention a few of these items, the Ring Pillows, the Pair of Swans, Basket of Doves, the Garden, and the Bridal Boquet. I also owe Ogma and any other creators who helped fix the problem of all the missing chest, bins and wardrobes a big THANKS. These containers held all our wedding supplies and the wedding was only 2 hours away. Talahaski |
| 179: [Nov 12 2000] Tragic (Elyth) |
| Um somewhere you lost the point of this board Tragic. It's called PRAISE for a reason. Half the objects on the whole mud didn't load and you'sit there bitching about losing your precious stuff. You never stopped to think that Ogma and whatever other creators were on at the time have more reason to bitch than you do, hell they had to figure out why shit didn't load, figure out how to fix the problem, AND deal with a whole mud of bitchy, whiny players. We should all be thankful that not only did they fix the problem, they managed to do it without eviscerating anyone. Next time you consider bitching creators out you might want to find out what's going on first, otherwise you just look dumb. And you might also consider that they're here because they WANT to be, because it's fun for them to make a world for people to run around and do stuff in, and when the people they're trying to entertain only bitch and whine and act dumb in return, someone's going to get eviscerated sooner or later. |
| 180: [Nov 12 2000] Fireworks! (Bakuretsu) |
| Ogma, thanks for the fireworks! They were really buggy, but then you gave us new ones to play with. They wouldn't light since they were in storage, but then we trashed the defective ones and you gave us new ones. ^_^ -Bakuretsu Yamitenshi |
| 181: [Nov 13 2000] Praise in General (Beren) |
| For what my opinions worth:) I think the creators have really done a great job in general, adding new items, areas ect. The level of creator work in the game seems to be at an unprecidented high. thanks for the good work |
| 182: [Nov 16 2000] Creators and Creator-Kin (Spiffy) |
| I want to say thanks to all the creators and their Kin over on test mud. You guys rock. Spiffy |
| 183: [Nov 17 2000] Feathers (Iemz) |
| Woo finally we can do something with feathers! Thanks Ogma Iemz |
| 184: [Nov 17 2000] Sidhe (Bakuretsu) |
| Ogma, your new description rocks! -Bakuretsu Yamitenshi |
| 185: [Nov 22 2000] New Who descriptions (Talahaski) |
| I think this was a great idea. It is already apparent that more people are getting these descriptions and using them instead of remaining off the who. I think this may have a extra advantage with keeping newbie. Newbies like to know that there are more than 2 people playing at any time. And, athough the who does give a estimate of the total players on, it gives a better appearance when people are listed, Talahaski |
| 186: [Dec 06 2000] Too funny. (Tomnoddy) |
| Okay, saw something that had me laughing for a while, and kudos to whichever creator added this. Menolly says in common, 'One time, at band camp...' Heh, I'm still laughing over this. These new packers are so much more interesting than the old, quiet ones with screwy names. |
| 187: [Dec 06 2000] Doff my Armor, etc. (Otto) |
| To whomever made it possible to don one's stuff and ready "my" weapons, well done! |
| 188: [Dec 06 2000] Arming rack (Griffith) |
| Nice work, i like these better and i hear that certain items like chains and shurikens also get stowed and readied well done |
| 189: [Dec 09 2000] Guilds (Hrothgar) |
| I just thought I'd express my thanks to Ogma for all the work he did on the Guilds. It looks great! Well Done. And above all thank you! -he who plays there very excited healer gnome, Hrothgar |
| 190: [Dec 11 2000] Re: Guilds (Katkt) |
| I second what Hrothgar said. This is awesome, Ogma. Katkt |
| 191: [Dec 13 2000] Emptying objects (Endymion) |
| Nice job Flandor! I was stressing out over that the other day. Nice touch to the game. Endymion |
| 192: [Dec 14 2000] New braman equipment (Merkle) |
I just wanted to say thanks to whichever creator coded up the new ankle blades and other braman unique equipment. Almost makes me want to start a second so I could take good advantage of them. ;) Anyway, thanks a lot. I expect we will see a lot of new braman fighters in the near future. -player of Merkle |
| 193: [Dec 15 2000] Ankle blades and such. (Khebemn) |
| As a player of a braman warrior, I have to thank whoever was responsible for the new stuff. |
| 194: [Dec 15 2000] Braman Equipment (Lachoneus) |
| Job well done!! I got a chance to see Khebemn in action with his new equipment wanted to thank the creators responsible for the new Braman equipment :) thank you |
| 195: [Dec 16 2000] Many thanks. (Devlah) |
| Thank you whomever fixed the Brenter problem. :) |
| 196: [Dec 17 2000] new trees (Shzerinar) |
| Cool! Many thanks Player of Shzerinar |
| 197: [Jan 01 2001] Carol (Devlah) |
| To whomever came up with Carol, that was fantastic! I hope she can be adapted to sing songs all the time and not just holidays. Ü : ) |
| 198: [Jan 07 2001] Great game, kudos! (Therador) |
| I've been playing this game off and on for quite a few years, and I must say, it is a great game. I don't play muds that commonly, but play a lot of graphic games. I like this mud over any other I've played and consider this my "home" as far as muds go. I like the seriousness of death here. I like the fact that it is just too much of a pain to die and should be avoided at any cost. Again, kudos! Therador the really big ogre |
| 199: [Jan 13 2001] Ogma (Shzerinar) |
| For the obvious reasons, and for the not so obvious: thank you for your patience, persistence, and creativity. I may not post often, and I have yet to explore the new champions quest, but from the little I have seen and heard, it is a job well worth praise. And thank you for fixing what needed to be fixed, and not me. Your projects are always well thought out, and very fun. And I thank you for the priveledge of enjoying them. Player of Shzerinar |
| 200: [Jan 13 2001] Ass Kissing (Flandor) |
| It'll get you nowhere, Shzerinar. |
| 201: [Jan 17 2001] Re:last (Mosiah) |
| It'll get his nose a little brown -M. |
| 202: [Jan 18 2001] Ogma (Caterus) |
| I like the Hilt I idea alot ogma I collect swords RL, and pratice with them Its a good idea you put in cause Hilts of swords is very important to the sword user anyway before I got into a some long post I like the idea makes me feel as I am making a custom weapon even more to my chars needs Good job! **Player Of Cat** |
| 203: [Jan 18 2001] Re: Ass Kissing (Raven) |
Do you know what the difference is between ass-kissing and brown-nosing? About two inches. |
| 204: [Jan 19 2001] weapons (Talahaski) |
| I love the new weapons with hilts. My leather bound ivory hilt on my Katana looks great. Talahaski |

| 206: [Feb 18 2001] New mail. (Shiqik) |
| I'm happy to see the separation of OOC and IC mail. |
| 207: [Feb 19 2001] New mail, Cool mail (Kakkt) |
| this mud has continued to become realer and realer and I find that is why this is such a great mud, and to make such a realistic mailing system is much better. way to go! player of many dead characters |
| 208: [Feb 21 2001] New post office (Graender) |
| I went to the post office the other day and innocently typed "check mail". Instead of some boring system message, I was amazed to see the postmaster walk off and check for me, then come back and tell me he was sorry, but I didn't seem to have anything. Well, dang! Well done! |
| 209: [Mar 01 2001] Dartmud.com web site (Leareth) |
| Nice job to whomever is updating the site. It's been long overdue. Very nice write up on Omga on the site too. Leareth |
| 210: [Mar 01 2001] Re: Website. (Khebemn) |
| While I too find the website useful, a quick use of the finger command for the creators with 'write-ups' reveals they're one and the same. Now we just need Raven's fortune generator on the web site so the truly bored among us don't finger him several hundred times an hour. ;) |
| 211: [Mar 16 2001] Thank you thank you thank you! (Devlah) |
| I was getting soo sick of eating a bunch of seeds, then having to remember to "eat fruit" instead.... This makes things much easier. Thank you! |
| 212: [Mar 16 2001] ditto (Kakkt) |
| absolutely positively wonderful change, I've eaten so many seeds I know I could harvest enough crops to feed ferdarchi from my stomach, amzing, wonderful... player of kakkt P.S. thanks! |
| 213: [Apr 08 2001] Happy 10th Anniversary (Patrick) |
| So we all get some gifts? :P Anyway happy anniversary and hope we have more to come. Rdgs Patrick |
| 214: [Apr 16 2001] Wow, 10 years! Kudos! (Graender) |
| Congradulations! 10 years is a long time! Person behind Graender the Miner |
| 215: [Apr 17 2001] Graender (Veia) |
| I'd really hate to be the person behind him, I imagine it stinks back there. :P |
| 216: [Apr 20 2001] More Fishing (Bizquaithe) |
| Ogma, you are a god. Oh wait, thats not news I guess. Well done with the fishing stuff. |
| 217: [Apr 22 2001] fishing! (Kitiara) |
| Congrats and a well deserved pat on the back for the loster fishing! You guys sure do work your asses off for us |
| 218: [Apr 22 2001] Woo (Veia) |
| Thanks to Ogma, pets no longer hafta get old and die. :) I just think it rocks that he didn't HAVE to mess with the unaging code but he did anyway seeing as how pet age was never taken into account when unaging aws coded. At least now we know not being able to unage pets wasn't a bug...they never coded it in in the first place. :P |
| 219: [Apr 30 2001] improvements (Mysic) |
| I would first like to congradulate who ever redesigned Luthien's place its better newbies dont die trying to get past Gudz, but they dont know the secret words yet.. And to whom ever updated the help calendar thing, very fast now I know which days are right in comparison! Thank you creators! Mysic |
| 220: [Apr 30 2001] Luthien's caves (Ramik) |
| Well done. I like the changes. ---Ramik |
| 221: [Apr 30 2001] Amulets (Devlah) |
| This is new! This is interesting..And actually..Makes things a little more fun. I'm gone a little while and things start happening..Hmm.... Many thanks! We've already had a couple adventures in themselves while feeling out this whole pinging business. |
| 222: [May 21 2001] Woohoo! (Veia) |
| Herding rocks! I'd say this even if it wasn't the first new non-spell skill to be coded while I've been playing here. It'll totally revolutionize the economy and make lots of stuff easier to get which will in turn cause less player bitching. Maybe now some of us can actually start working lw seriously. :P -player of Veia tries to type right at 5am |
| 223: [May 28 2001] Buying mass quantities. (Rhelle) |
| Thanks to whoever fixed the bit about large numbers of the same item from a shop costing more than the listed price. |
| 224: [May 29 2001] To the creators who helped me out. (Bizquaithe) |
| To the creators who helped me with my bug, I thank you. Bizquaithe |
| 225: [May 29 2001] New Butchering (Bizquaithe) |
| At last, thanks to intestines, we can have sausages! |
| 226: [Jun 07 2001] unregs (Mysic) |
| well thats just completely interesting so..now not only can you go around killing registered newbies you can kill hordes of unregistered weaklings not that anyone would want to..hehe i think its good theres a small open spot for newbies so...also, will these unregistered ones be around as long after not saving? |
| 227: [Jun 24 2001] climbing (Kakkt) |
| I just tried climbing and wow, I noticed the new feature, how far up the wall I fell from, I dont know if anyone else has noticed this before but I find it a great improvement! player of Kakkt |
| 228: [Jun 26 2001] everything (Kakkt) |
| I just spent a while wandering around, looking at all the changes over the past 2 years or so and wow, you have done great around here lately, so many luxuxry items, complicated foods and clothes, great intelligence affects on the landscape, and size and intelligence affect items, and weapons, oh the weapons, so many, so intricate, its astounding how much work and research and not to mention tolerance has gone into creating a top notch ga... I take that back, not a game, a whole world! player of kakkt |
| 229: [Jul 12 2001] Racks (Caterus) |
| Howdy Good Job on making backpacks go on Racks *hopes it was not a bug* ((Player Of Caterus)) |
| 230: [Jul 12 2001] Re: Racks (Kesem) |
| It is a bug, you probably had a weapon in your pack when you tried stowing. :) -Player of Kesem |
| 231: [Jul 12 2001] Re Re Rack (Caterus) |
| Umm no it was a scabbard :P Darn would be nice to place your pack on a rack or something ((Player Of Caterus)) |
| 232: [Jul 12 2001] Re: unregs (Aelorn) |
| I think this is an excellent idea, I myself am a newbie (now registered). If it were not for the unreg system I doubt I would be here. The unreg system allowed me to have a look about the MUD without me having to fully commit myself. , Aelorn |
| 233: [Jul 17 2001] Thanks for Extract (Myth) |
| I like the extract command. |
| 234: [Jul 22 2001] Changes (Bromri) |
| I was just thinking about how many things have changed for the better, and grown in detail over the last couple of years, to make Dartmud even better than it was before. As always, thank you Player of Bromri |
| 235: [Jul 24 2001] Thank you Flandor (Myth) |
| I'm sure I'm not the only one who appreciates the changes to the mail system. I know that I'll use it more often now. -Player of Myth |
| 236: [Jul 28 2001] thanks for the little extras (Dimstar) |
| I was thinking recently about how I'd like to get my char a tattoo in the game and I was thinking about some designs and stuff and I realized that a little thing like that makes the game alot more enjoyable for me. Basically I just wanted to say thanks to Flandor and the other creators for the extra time the put into custom descriptions and smells and such. It means alot. Dimstar * |
| 237: [Jul 29 2001] Bin change (Merkle) |
Thanks! No more orcs carrying enough iron on their shoulders to manufacture the Titanic out of. ;) -Player of Merkle |
| 238: [Jul 30 2001] Bin change 2 (Myth) |
| Thanks from me too. If someone wants to steal stuff, they should have to work to steal it. Not just walk in and walk out with, as the player of Merkle so nicely put it, enough metal to manufacture the titanic. :) -Player of Myth |
| 239: [Jul 31 2001] The Soriktan Inquisition. (Nemrik) |
| Thanks to whoever deported the Spaniards from Ferdarchi. |
| 240: [Aug 02 2001] maybe an orc built them a big boat... (Kakkt) |
| couldn't help myself kakkt |
| 241: [Aug 21 2001] New descs (Veia) |
| Woo nifty, some of mine got on. :) I have now officially made my mark on the mud. :P Only thing is...what the hell does "perspicacious" mean? Gee sounds weird to hear me wondering what a word means huh? :P one small complaint: some of the nouns are listed twice Bah why don't parentheses work on this? *sigh* -player of Veia returns to incoherence |
| 242: [Aug 22 2001] New descs also (Ima) |
| I just wanted to thank Raven for quickly responding to my "complaint" and getting the new descriptions up on the list. That was speedy! Player of Ima, who might be a moody troll someday |
| 243: [Aug 22 2001] Re: New descs (Merkle) |
Perspicacious - means shrewd (but not in a bad way) -*player of Merkle goes off and hides from the lag* |
| 244: [Aug 29 2001] Rooms update (Caterus) |
| Thanks Ogma for the update to the rooms at WH I should have sent in a request before but at the time I was alittle dead :) ((Player Of Caterus)) |
| 245: [Sep 04 2001] Anti-stealth cantrips. (Nemrik) |
| Thanks for removing those. The trick was slowly catching on and some people didn't see it as rediculously unbalanced. |
| 246: [Sep 04 2001] recent (Pathos) |
| an appreciation to those creators who are often constantly doing something also i am glad to see some creators on who nice |
| 247: [Oct 05 2001] Re: Kakkt (Raven) |
Kakkt, Thank you for your note; we appreciate the sentiment. However, I have removed it, because I prefer that our players neither promote nor deride other MUDs while here. Thanks again, R. |
| 248: [Oct 06 2001] new stuff (Leareth) |
| Nice job with modifying how eating works. Being able to eat your full rocks. [0m I'm also glad drinking is finally making great progress. It will be a great enhancement to the mud. [0m Leareth |
| 249: [Oct 07 2001] Nice Mud! (Zephyn) |
| I'm fairly new here, and I just wanted to congratulate you coders on a great MUD. I've played a DikuMUD in the past, but finally got fed up with it's ridiculous battle engine and other similar aspects. I have yet to find anything here which I don't like. Though, I would like to know what is the anything here which I don't like! Good job! |
| 250: [Oct 08 2001] thanks raven (Kakkt) |
| thanks for changing shovel to blade for campfire my first influence player of kakkt |

| yep, thats the first thing i noticed when i ate one |
| 253: [Oct 22 2001] Language#magic improve (Sibinth) |
| I am happy to see that language isnt just generic anymore! Much like music a language improve shows which type of skill was improved! Thank you for this update. |
| 254: [Nov 06 2001] Awe (Hrothgar) |
| Well Done! I am in awe once again at the amzaing work our creators done with this wonderful game. The recent addition of liquids, thirst, and now hunting is really neat to see. Thank you. stunned in awe -Hrothgar |
| 255: [Nov 08 2001] Kudos (Kavita) |
| same here. I have not seen this much imagination and innovation since the early days of beta testing, hats off to Flandor, Ogma, Raven and all the pthers who keep making this game increasingly interesting month after month and year after year. Kavita, the Hair transplant-seeking Orc |
| 256: [Nov 08 2001] I must agree (Kakkt) |
| although I was not here it beta testing, I have seen the improvement over a few years, and I must compliment you on this sudden burst of amazing code! thankyouthankyouthankyou! the game is now by far the most amazing thing I have come across (that doesn't cost more that my lifes savings) Kudos to the creators, power to the players, and other nifty niceties newbies kakkt: player of many, learner with few |
| 257: [Nov 15 2001] Soriktos. (Oolric) |
| I visited Tirachi for the first time in some RL months and was pleasantly surprised by the number of new things that had sprung up since my last visit. |
| 258: [Nov 29 2001] More ways of making fire! (Tenji) |
| Thank you very much for giving us more options to craft campfires. I really appreciate this as it seems like a more rudientary skill, rather than one that requires lumbering. Great skill for the feeble and lazy alike. thanks again! Player of Tenji!!! |
| 259: [Dec 02 2001] Soriktos (Sage) |
| I am much impressed with the new "start in soriktos" idea, however it lacks some things... a place to learn magic, and a place to gather random spellbooks its quite a work up to get from Tirachi to Ferdarchi especially if a rowan was to start there just thought I would praise this idea Sage the dwarf |
| 260: [Dec 25 2001] swimming in the ocean (Louie) |
| I would like to congratulate the creator who maked the ocean a bit more accesible ... great job man ! Cap'tain Louie |
| 261: [Dec 25 2001] Thanks Ogma! (Bakuretsu) |
| I am grateful to Ogma for being extremely prompt in helping me recover what I had lost a week ago. |
| 262: [Dec 29 2001] great new clue-by-four (Kakkt) |
| I am very happy with the new pazzaz put into the clue by four. Is there an upcoming skill of enlightening? although then people would compete for most enlightened... I wonder if that means ancient monks and the like were really bugging god rather than achieving his state of mind. player of kakkt, thanking ogma |
| 263: [Dec 30 2001] re clue-by-four (Tassle) |
| what is it? or was that the whap that ogma gave me once? tassle |
| 264: [Dec 31 2001] it appears as if its a skill (Kakkt) |
| it is a lot less like emotes, much more like you are becoming enlightened. I dont suggest finding out though. |

| 266: [Jan 22 2002] vending machine (Yoshiro) |

| 267: [Jan 31 2002] Equip Changes (Ramik) |
| Speaking as a 4-armed equipment whore, I really appreciate the changes, Ogma. It's now much easier to identify what I'm actually holding amid a sea of spam. ---Ramik |
| 268: [Feb 04 2002] Shop changes (Flyte) |
| I have to say I also appreciate the changes made to shops, MUCH easier to see what's being sold for how much, now. Flyte |
| 269: [Mar 12 2002] Tag, you're it (Kakkt) |
| thanks raven for that incredible game, it has a lot of room for improvement too, like being able to use hide and sneak and fighting skills more appropriately for such a thing. Its a great step in the direction of ece (extra-character events). Once again, thankyou raven Player of Kakkt |
| 270: [Mar 19 2002] auto conc (Nobusoku) |
| i'm going to be the first to say it, and definitely not the last. auto-conc rules. |

| Agreed. Thank you for a wonderful addition to both gameplay and certain peoples' note posting abilities. |
| 272: [Mar 20 2002] AC (Axeoth) |
| It possibly saves a bit of resources and lag for the users. Nice. |
| 273: [Mar 20 2002] Auto-conc (Ramik) |
| It's amazing to me how such a seemingly small thing can increase my enjoyment of the game so much. Thank you, Raven. ---Ramik |
| 274: [Mar 20 2002] conc (Yoshiro) |
| like the auto conc. thanks. oh and the limit conc. |
| 275: [Apr 03 2002] Conc rules! (Graender) |

| Yes thanks. Makes it easier to study and mud at the same time. :P Iemz |

| Hooray for auto-conc! Now maybe people will turn off their conc triggers and we won't see so many conc lines in the middle conc of posts. -Flandor conc |
| 278: [Apr 06 2002] re: (Leareth) |
| what was conc that, Flandor? *smile* but really, good job with the auto-conc. Leareth |
| 279: [Apr 11 2002] Regarding Key (Octavia) |
| I just wanted to say thanks for the hand with my key problem after the crash this morning. I did check my log and **blushes furiously* I had tried and failed to wear my key because of a stupid typo I made. So thanks a bunch for helping me get it back even though losing it was own newbie careless fault. This is the coolest mud I have ever been on. Thanks, Anna aka Octavia |
| 280: [Apr 13 2002] Cards (Tzven) |
| The greatest addition to the mud since uz. |
| 281: [Apr 13 2002] Blackjack (Daring) |
| Very nice! I just hope you don't implement casino barrings, or leg breaking if a player wins too much. Daring |
| 282: [Apr 17 2002] Helms (Ramik) |
| I love the new identity-concealing helms. Ogma, you're groovy and fab. Possibly marvy, but the jury's still out on that. ---Ramik |
| 283: [Apr 17 2002] cloaks robes and helms (Vex) |
| Very nice work, adds a dash of life to the mud. Player of Vex |
| 284: [Apr 28 2002] Tourist Pamphlet and Map (Kavita) |
| Great work! Should make things much easier for newbie players. Kavita |

| 286: [Apr 29 2002] Mail change (Daring) |
| Nice touch, how postal clerks tell you other people have mail. Daring |
| 287: [May 02 2002] show skills (Aleia) |
| Wow very nice the show skills movement :))) Aleia grovels for a show skills magic or show skills spells one day. smile |
| 288: [May 02 2002] re: show skills (Ogma) |
| You might read the help file on show skills. In particular notice the 'show skills mage' option. Also read the help file on 'show spells' |
| 289: [May 03 2002] re : show skills (Aleia) |
| Thank you a lot Ogma :) Wonderful! I was checking the helpfiles yesterday (on the web) and nothing is written about that at the player/Show section or player/skills section or even in the magic section that's why I asked. sorry :) |
| 290: [May 05 2002] Trashcans (Aleia) |
| Yeaah, the new trashcans are nice (well I suppose that the way we should trash has been improved.. or maybe it is that I've never understood it before *grin*) |
| 291: [May 27 2002] Moat at WinterHold. (Vex) |
| An incredible job on the new moat at WinterHold. My thanks to any involved in its creation. Player of Vex |

| 295: [Jun 06 2002] a general thanks and praise (Yama) |
| Thanks for all of your time, and it is a great world |
| 296: [Jun 15 2002] Small Thanks (Quwe) |
| This is a small note of thanks for allowing us to refer to Spyder currency as just webs if we wish. Thanks again! -Player of Quwe |
| 297: [Jun 17 2002] npc shouts (Crack) |
| to whomever stopped grashlin, thror, and other npc's from shouting when attacked, thank you. |
| 298: [Jun 19 2002] name embroidery (Quwe) |
| Just like to say a thanks on this board, even though I wrote it on the ideas board in response to Ogma's swift action in making name-embroidered packs distinguishable with the "get" command. -Q |
| 299: [Jun 19 2002] General (Aleia) |
| I want to thank the creators for their work, they sure are active, and make things fast especially for the auto health and so on.. Really, you Rock!! |
| 300: [Jun 20 2002] 3rd time the charm (Kakkt) |
| so I guess 300 is even better. Lately I have really come to appreciate all of the intracacy of the world, from detailed lighting falling between leaves in a tree to the sweet stench of dried blood and the such. Justs makes me onder what it would look like with ansi. Your partially devoted player Andrew Post |
| 301: [Jun 21 2002] Thanks! (Himlad) |
| Just wanted to say thanks for the swift help that I recieved with my password troubles Thank you! ^Himlad |
| 302: [Jul 15 2002] Combat (Mar) |
| Keep the combat tweaks comming! |
| 303: [Jul 16 2002] Thanks (Kuroryu) |
| Ogma made a couple of awesome crafting additions and answered some Q's Thanks Kuroryu |
| 304: [Jul 23 2002] Dangerous wilderness (Yama) |
| I like the change, I have to be alert for trips to Segliz now :) |
| 305: [Jul 25 2002] Wilderness (Rohan) |
| I like to too, cept for the hatred of spyder's by cows. Longhorn's are like the most common thing out there and seem to have this utter hatred of spyders. Kinda weird. But regardless it definitely adds spice. Thanks guys! |
| 306: [Aug 13 2002] Combat Coolness (Kakkt) |
| I didn't know anything had been changed untill I was jumped by a few wolves, and found that I had sliced right through a wolfs head. On the way back I put my shield in ym attacking hand unwittingly, and found myself nicking and bludgeoning longhorns, this is totally awesome A game of adjectives just got a little more descriptive (we are gonna totally drive the players of standard muds nuts with this) Once again, Incredibly Massively Megasuperultra neato. The overly pleased player of kakkt |
| 307: [Aug 22 2002] Because nobody else has said it yet (Morten) |
| I just wanted to say thanks for installing an automatic "look" when we traverse the hexes. It makes things a lot easier, not to mention logical - it's like before I didn't notice the bear until it swiped me... now I can see it and keep running! :) Good work. See? It's the simple things that just make the game so much better. -Morten |
| 308: [Aug 22 2002] Just because... (Arizel) |
| I think for once I'm gonna praise players, although of course the creators are the ones who made this an environment where players can really excel if they want to. I never quite get over the fact that we have so few total idiots who log on here and shout asking for 15 year old girls who like pokemon. Sure some are better than others, but go anywhere else and you find a lot higher percentage of dorks. The cumulative IQ on here must be a lot higher than on some much bigger muds. :P |
| 309: [Aug 22 2002] Re: Just because... (Raven) |
| Arizel wrote: > we have so few total idiots You wouldn't say that if you had to read the bug reports and registration gripes. |
| 310: [Aug 23 2002] Idiots (Arizel) |
| Just because we suck less than everywhere else doesn't mean we don't have our own problems. :P |
| 311: [Aug 23 2002] Travelled Hexes (Drun) |
| Well, I'm not a huge fan of the un-toggleable autolook hex feature, but I think the new "how well the hex has been travelled" messages qualify as one of those simple things that make the game much better. It's cool to see the paths people take to towns and their castles. Keep it up. -Drun |
| 312: [Aug 23 2002] Re: Travelled Hexes (Raven) |
| Can always use brief. |
| 313: [Aug 23 2002] Re: Travelled hexes. (Ciarna) |
| Brief is great, except that it no longer mentions important things like rivers or cliffs. |
| 314: [Oct 12 2002] New Server (Bromri) |
| Sweet! |
| 315: [Oct 17 2002] Languages (Flyte) |
| Very nice new driver. Not sure if it was part of that, but I do like the way languages work now, very nicely done :) |
| 316: [Oct 26 2002] Prompt fixes (Morten) |
| I sent in a typo report, and to my surprise it had been fixed within a day! Kudos to the creator who fixed it, and to all of you for your vigilance. Keep it up! -Morten |
| 317: [Oct 27 2002] conc and cash (Crack) |
| The conc display and bankers hours are fine ideas. Crack |
| 318: [Nov 05 2002] Economy Tinkering (Rohan) |
| I posted a note halfway complaining about the economy changes, but after reading that Raven is simply tinkering and trying to fix it I feel I should praise him as well. It's one hell of a thing to take on and to even see a creator trying gives me hope. Thanks Raven |
| 319: [Nov 28 2002] Dartmud (Quwe) |
| I have to say that this mud inspires me. It has always been my dream to code a mud of my own one day. I would like to say thanks to the coders and the players. Knowing that there are people who strive for a more in depth experience, is encouraging. |
| 320: [Nov 29 2002] feelings (Kakkt) |
| I have been gone for a few months, and I wake up one day feeling groggy! then I walk around a bit, and my joints begin to ache, I feel bored as I read the boards, and after some time I feel lonely and grumpy. After itching a bit I then look at an injured limb, and notice my exoskeleton is looking awfully dingy lately. I dunno where these came from, but I love the depth and whatnot you guys have supplied. Mega kudos. player of kakkt (if logging in once a month counts as playing) |
| 321: [Jan 05 2003] Vampires (Anorou) |
| I would like to give my praise to whoever coded the vampires. It adds probably the most fun I've ever had in a mud. There's nothing like the feeling of fear you get when you run into one. :) Player of Anorou |
| 322: [Jan 06 2003] Thanx (Sui) |
| I would like to thank to the creator that is resp9onsable for this: You almost die, but something saves you! You are in perfect health. It saved my life about 5 times now ... Sui |
| 323: [Jan 06 2003] Re: Thanx (Raven) |
I'd love to know a detailed account of what you are doing around the time you get that message. It was a lame fix to stop people from dying from a bug for which we knew the symptoms but not the cause. Thanks, R. |
| 324: [Jan 09 2003] general praise (Kakkt) |
| I used to be a real dm addict, I'd go through withdrawl without my weekly dose. I could really find some annoying things to bitch about back then, but now that I rarely get the chance to play, its more like a great priveledge on every level and every aspect to get to play, and every time I log in, I just can't help but grin at the depth of helpfiles, or descriptions of a room, or the number of skills, or the intricate society. You still have to be nuts to spend so much time improving when you get more bitching then praising, but I tell you what, we must be nuts to do that when there is so much to praise, and so little to bitch about. Player of kakkt (and I think still the youngest player) |
| 325: [Jan 10 2003] Responses (Rohan) |
| I have been meaning to post a praise too. I feel like I have pointed out things I thought should be updated or changed lately and just havent said thank you enough. I feel it's my job to point out some of it. I've been here long enough that this place feels like part of a home, and you should take care of a place like that. But in reality you guys do all the work and listen to all the bitching, and no matter what anyone says you actually seem to genuinely listen to complaints and really try to make it a fun place for "everyone", not just the old foggies. I really respect that. Btw, I have always promised myself if I win the Powerball and get millions I'd set this place up for life. Just imagine...a Dartmud Company. Maybe everyone will even get a Dartmud T-Shirt. Nah...I won't be THAT nice. Thanks Again Guys! |
| 326: [Jan 13 2003] Re:Last (Mosiah) |
| I was thinking of printing up a dartmud.com bumper sticker :P |
| 327: [Feb 22 2003] Who descs (Iemz) |
| Thanks for adding some of the suggestions... I been waiting for a word for a while now grin Iemz |
| 328: [Mar 02 2003] To Ogma Thank You (Mordall) |
| I have gotten word about the unregs no longer being able to lift gates, Thank You Very Much! I appreciate it, also I was experiencing severe connection problems Friday Morning, if you have any questions regarding that please look me up at your convienence. Thanks Player of Mordall |
| 329: [Mar 30 2003] Thanks (Shad) |
| I wanted to stop and thank the creators for fast service. You solved all my problems in a matter of hours |
| 330: [Apr 10 2003] WHOOOOA (Kakkt) |
| CROSSBOWS!!!!!!WOOT! ILUVYALILUVYAILUVYA 'nuff said. Kakkt |
| 331: [Apr 25 2003] This is only game I play for any length of (Graender) |
| time I've played many games, Mud, 2d and 3d, and this is the only one that can keep my attention for any length of time. Most games I get bored with in 3 months. Extrordinary games I can play for a year before I get sick of them. This game I've played off and on for...a long time. This char itself is about 3 years old, and I had chars before that also. There will be times where I won't play this game for months on end, but it always draws me back when I get bored with the other ones I'm playing. I just want to say kudos to the entire team, great job! Graender |
| 332: [May 30 2003] Herbalism (Morten) |
| Thank you for increasing the yield in the hexes. In this increasingly populated world, increasing the available natural resources was a wise move. -Morten, the self-proclaimed unbelievable herbalist |
| 333: [Jul 08 2003] Re: Graender (Loran) |
| I agree, DM is amazing for the evolving storyline and the creator support Keep up the good work, guys! |
| 334: [Jul 11 2003] Thanks (Wilco) |
| To the creators who added practice to the gather command. It is much appreciated. -Wilco |
| 335: [Jul 13 2003] Mining (Flax) |
| I just thought I'd say how impressed I am with the mining system here. It's not something I've seen before, and perhaps could be expanded in some respects, but it's a brilliant concept. I've thought this ever since I first did a little mining, but only just now thought to note it as being exceptionally good. Flax |
| 336: [Jul 14 2003] Thanks! (Athanasia) |
| To whoever fixed my problem. You guys are quick! -Athanasia |
| 337: [Aug 07 2003] My thanks to you. (Shax) |

| 338: [Aug 08 2003] shop (Zoise) |
| THANK GOD TO WHOMEVER MADE THE SHOP ALLOW US TO LIST CERTAIN ITEMS! that bieng said, could it also use the 'all' such as 'list all that fit me' Zoise, overjoyed |
| 339: [Aug 26 2003] University resizing. (Mahetabel) |
| I'd like to thank whoever made the crafting room available to the larger folks. |
| 340: [Aug 29 2003] Last night/this morning. (Mahetabel) |
| I'd like to thank the creators for working through the night to get the mud open to players again. They could have easily done the work over a few days, leaving us addicts with bad cravings. ;) |
| 341: [Aug 30 2003] Registration features (Hadubrand) |
| Thank you very much for the new player regisration features...just superb. |
| 342: [Sep 01 2003] New Mining and Current Events (Beretil) |
| Just wanted to post a note saying the new mining system is great. I feel it more closely mimics the real world to a very usable level. So whoever coded that, great job! And please keep up the work! And for more recent events I'd like to say that even though it sucks to have Eristan gone and a handful of castles, the event really livened up the mud. Maybe more random events in the future? But hey, thanks for working yer asses off guys, I know I enjoy the end product. Beretil |
| 343: [Sep 01 2003] Mining (Yuli) |
| I also agree, the new new mining system (with fixed bugs) is much better than the old system. The old old system was good, the old system sucked and the new new system is even better. Nice work Yoru and others. -- Yuli |
| 344: [Sep 03 2003] NPC Changes (Jaraim) |
| I love the new changes to at least one well-known NPC, who now casts a protective spell. Does giving NPCs new spells mean we players might get some? Hmm? Hmm? - Player of Jaraim |
| 345: [Sep 05 2003] Apocalypse (Sulaman) |
| I feel I should say that I have been enjoying the changes that have been wrought in Dartmud due to the apocalypse. It has been a nice change of pace, and really stirred things up. I am looking forward to the development of the post-apocalypse world. ----Sulaman |
| 346: [Sep 13 2003] Recent deletions (Amai) |
| I want to praise the creators for their new policy of investigation. Since it appears that all my ennemies were amongst the cheatyers sitebanned. I had given up dartmud for 6 months since I couldn't immerge any more in a world that couldn't been played fairly. This recent events will I hope increse a lot the realism of the world! Thans so much, that makes me eager to play again :) |
| 347: [Sep 13 2003] Constellations. (Mahetabel) |
| I'm glad to see the stars. |
| 348: [Sep 14 2003] Set magespam (Jaraim) |

| How about a set Jarspam to cover that last post? :D --player of NOrad |
| 350: [Sep 21 2003] Liona/Mortikai (Yuli) |
| Thank you for finally figuring out they were the same person. :) They were the most immature, rude people. I applaude you for finally deleting them. -- Yuli the orc |
| 351: [Sep 21 2003] recently (Leareth) |
| Just saying that the recent changes, including the events which created the crator, have all been well appreciated. It's very noticable that a lot of work has been done to make all these changes in a very short time. I also like some of the new critters in the hexes. Leareth |
| 352: [Oct 12 2003] moving (Wilco) |
| Thanks for keeping the downtime so short for the server change. :) -Wilco |
| 353: [Oct 14 2003] Excellent job on the move (Daring) |
| It was invisible to me. Daring |
| 354: [Nov 21 2003] Assassin (Danor) |
| That was crazy fun :) |
| 355: [Nov 21 2003] New Site (Alsatia) |
| It amazes me how much you all care about the gameplay of Dartmud, like this recent change of getting us a new site. No more tedious lag, no more constant reboots, or crashes. It's not like you had to do it. In fact, it's not like you all have to do anything to make Dm life easier for all of us, but you do. I know ya probably heard this a million times, but thanks for giving a crap about us! I know of one reason why I keep coming back to Dartmud..it's because we have an admin that makes things happen. Instead of telling ya to keep up the good work..why don't you all take a break for once. You gals, and guys ;) deserve it! Man I sound cheesy. -Alsatia |
| 356: [Nov 25 2003] Assassin (Lixen) |
| I agree, Assassin is quite fun. This was the first time I experienced it and I found it quite enjoyable. I sure wouldn't mind if it happened more often. Lixen |
| 357: [Nov 25 2003] Assassin (Danor) |
| Yeah I wouldnt mind a few rounds once or more a week ;) |
| 358: [Nov 27 2003] Rats (Danor) |
| I like these rats here in Sori.. they're smarter than their dumber cousins on the mainland |
| 359: [Nov 28 2003] New Inn (Magik) |
| The new inn looks awesome! Ogma and the other creators really did a great job. Maybe now people will start moving back up north. :) Player of Magik |
| 360: [Dec 08 2003] Foci are fixed! (Garion) |
| Thanks to Jiles who took a couple spare minutes out of this break to see what happened with em, Foci are now fixed! No more dropping and picking up to "enable" the discharge command! Thank you thank you! That was a most annoying bug! -Garion |
| 361: [Dec 08 2003] green gryphon inn? (Kefka) |
| I think the tent city aka eris city looks great and the addition to the inn makes it more habitable and worth visitng however....it reminds me greatly of the city of karnak in its dimensions and directions |
| 362: [Dec 09 2003] Last (Temeres) |
| Can't you even post a praise note without whining about something? |
| 363: [Jan 30 2004] misc (Siegfried) |
| I'd just like to say thanks for making it possible to see which npc is attacking which member of my party now or atleast which ones are attacking me. Should be more helpful in party situations. -sieg |
| 364: [Jan 31 2004] fighting changes (Mormel) |
| thank you for listening to my (probably others as well) request to put in an indication of who is fighting who. it's a fantastic improvement. --Mormel |
| 365: [Feb 02 2004] re: misc (Danor) |
| Yes! a great change. Helps me a lot, especially when I'm feeling not-too-bright :p |
| 366: [Mar 10 2004] Stone working (Lixen) |
| I love stone working. Great job to those who worked on it. I especially like that we have a craft that is so deadly now. Lixen |
| 367: [Apr 05 2004] Mage Guild Construction (Jaraim) |
| Thank you to the creator(s) who started construction on the new Guild premisis. It got started much more quickly than I had thought possible. -- Jaraim |
| 368: [Apr 05 2004] rangers (Barre) |
| congradulations to the rangers of eris for starting a new guild |
| 369: [Apr 15 2004] Jiles (Devon) |
| You rock! |
| 370: [May 03 2004] TMS (Borgir) |
| My congratulations to the great description on TMS, it's very detailed and shows DM's most valuable aspects. If I didn't know DM yet I'd start playing immediately after reading that description. Congrats again :) |
| 371: [Jun 19 2004] just to praise (Kefka) |
| Congrats on the new minting its nice. |
| 372: [Jun 21 2004] War (Jaraim) |
| Praise to everyone involved in this latest "war", it really makes the game much more interesting :) - Player of Jaraim |
| 373: [Jul 20 2004] to the player of Urthan (Mormel) |
| I'd like to thank the player of Urthan for adding to the fun. I can imagine that ropelaying a somewhat "less-intelligent" ogre can be difficult sometimes, but you pull it off like it's nothing. It really adds to the experience and makes it fun to hang out in Soriktos. Thanks. |
| 374: [Jul 28 2004] Green Rats! (Danor) |
| That raid was fun. Do I have to complain because I died? No. I still think it was a lot of fun. I just wish the pelt glowed green too ;) -Player of Danor, the incumbent combustible masochist |
| 375: [Aug 13 2004] Recent Raid (Beretil) |
| I would like to thank the creators for the recent raid in Tent City. It was the most fun Ive had in a long time. Sometimes it's nice to get a good battle where having your amulet tossed to sea doesn't happen. So please keep up the good work gents, and maybe another raid someday. It is easily worth using up an amulet for the fun. Thanks! Beretil the glorious happy battle guy |
| 376: [Aug 14 2004] Re:raid (Borgir) |
| I agree totally! I wasn't there, but hell, I so wish I was. As Beretil says, it's nice to use your skills and tactics without ending the lives of other players sometimes. And also, it makes combat skills themselves have more worth, I find. Muddict Borgir |
