Having your items stolen then being killed when you try to retaliate. 'nuff said. (Some MUDs have some balancing issues...)
[Edit] Oh, and that should have been "Having your items stolen then being killed IN ONE HIT when you try to retaliate."

What sucks even more is having some twirp of a guy have upper-level help, being unable to retaliate because of that. I lost 250 hours of questing from this: Log made, and edited out useless stuff. Gathlion enters the room (Cloaked) You start casting a spell... You fade out of existance. Sephiroth trips you! You fade back into existance. Gathlion throws dirt in your eyes. Someone backstabs you, -=[</Annihilating\>]=- you completely! (34200) Someone circles, and stabs you! (2500) Someone circles, and stabs you! (2500) Someone trips you! You miss someone. You begin to cast a spell. Someone begins to cast a spell Something descends upon you, and you feel attached to the area You are unable to teleport, due to being stuck. You can see again! <[2400] Hp:35000/150000 Mana:120000/120000 Move:0/120000> You begin to cast a spell. Gathlion screams as his armor starts to warm up, dropping it! A medallion of the Dragons falls to the ground A sword of Limestone(Enchanted) falls to the ground .....(you get it...) Sephiroth says, 'No! :P' Sephiroth throws dirt in your eyes! Get what? Get what? Get what? Someone begins to cast a spell. Huge stone walls come up from the ground, covering the exits. Someone begins to cast a spell. Lightning strikes your body, not even harming you! (2) (Repeat 600, yes, 600 times) You die! Sephiroth shouts, 'Watch this...hahahahaha' The game is crashing! Attempting to recover from hotboot! The game is crashing! Attempting to recover from hotboot! etc..... People who havent played MUD's prob. wont make sense of this, but oh well. Just something thats annoyed me for a while. Alathon | |

It's especially bad if someone your level picks a fight with you, then brings in their "big brother" level 100 character on another account as soon as they start to lose... Z | |

Ballence is really an important thing. However, it always finds it's way...
I like diablo's system: you can go back to where you died and pick up your corpse, or re-log in and it will be sitting there for you. Other games have nice systems for such things, too... which brings me to say once again, MLAAS needs personal locker space! I carry too much around with me, and it's hard to keep it all organized. When I die, I often lose valuable things that I would have had in my locker because I didn't need them at the moment (Example: high-qual masks, expensive gas masks/radiation hoods etc.)
See you all later!
