Title: Immortal powers
Post by: Maerryji on August 30, 2004, 02:47:04 pm
There were some cases (see unofficial forum, solace.allnetwork.ru) when one of Unseen Gods did something disgusting with mortals... I do not mean denies and other punishments where immortals at least explained why are they doing it, I mean cases when immortals behaved like the small children with very specific sence of humour.
For example, in the May of 2002 I (Maerryji) decided to fight with one of the creatures (have no log, sorry). Creature was strong, but when I (was blinded) tried to retreat, I failed. What has happened? Someone closed the only door leading from the room, and I did not notice it. When I uderstood that, I have opened the door but it closed again.
This repeated a few times, but finally I fled. And saw that

An Unseen God closes the <door name>.

Funny, isn't it?

Yes, I agree that to prevent player cheating and other likely thing Immortals should have an ability to cloak theirselves. But I offer to rewrite it slightly and make most of actions which may be used to offend players automatically revealing them, or something like that. Let Unseen Gods watch players, talk to them, and let players know who is making their life harder. So Immortals will bear responsibility for all what they do.
This will probably decrease the number of unpleasant cases, and surely there will be much less dirt and bitching on Immortals (Immortals in general, I mean) on forums.

Maybe, they wisinvis should work this way - you can not see Immortal via who, where, scan, look and same commands, but when he says or does something, you see the text like:

Morgion says 'Hello'
or
Morgion tells you 'Hey, don't cheat!'
or
Morgion giggles.
or
Morgion slays you in cold blood.

So you will see an Unseen God only when he talks or executes you ;)

Just thinking, if someone can enter the forum with chemosh's password he can enter the game as a imm?

Doubt the game can be exploited with a simple injection, anyway, there were no any real precedents yet.

Anyway, what about subj, guys?

Lynx, i think it's a good idea.
I think they do not have to hide theyr face when they
do something with players.
I am for it.

There is nothing to discuss in this idea. It will be rejected.
