I have started transcribing from the YouTube video but I expect it will take me a couple of days to get all the way through it and then proofread it. I'm sure I'll be doing a great job of butchering player names for one thing and I'll admit I'm a bit rusty and out of the loop on stuff that's been going on in-game for a while now so hopefully I don't botch referring to those things as well. But maybe the end result will help give people a quick rundown of what was discussed in the two hours with the development team.
Some have beards like Lasher. I think the Earth one will be are first rideable flying mount with its little butt wings and wind blown mane.
Bonnie had said on several occasions in the past that if they felt like they needed to take a hard look at changing the current IDOC situation that they would just kill the system entirely. I absolutely think this is the path that they would likely take. Remove house timers and any indication that the house is in decay. I honestly can not see the trying to develop another system to try to thwart people intent on using their multiple accounts to get more loot. Highly doubtful that their math has changed and they would ban several users with dozens of accounts each.Major Topic, IDOC Housing-
From Kyronix-
Question - Any plans to revist or revise
YES on radar for near future
"Anyone up to shinannigans at IDOCS, you know who you are, it's time to stop because you're not going to like what happens when we have to fix it."
Some ideas- Raffle or Auction
"Those of you out there who are the root cause of this, I know you know who you are, ya'll need to cut it out right now because when we cut it out you're not going to like the outcome, take that as you will"
Direct quote from our leader
I'm glad they're adding new things, but the front legs on those make me think of a pantomime horse.
I mean, this seems like that best fix to the issue. Make it so only the owner can see the timer. Boom, IDOC's are no longer a thing that can be scripted. Houses fall, someone comes along later looking for a house spot. Ta'da!
when they started deleting stuff only house vultures remain but idoc has always been a terrible play style
wow and like no one will make a script to continuously rail facets looking for fallen houses and now you have a new er problem.
They implied that the can and will punish people who do
What do you feel they aren't addressing? So far, we've seen excellent results and updates since Kryonix has taken over. Does this team have a way to go before they earn my trust back? Most certainly. However, I feel things are moving in the right direction. New Legacy was a mistake, but it's one that is done and we have to deal with moving forward.
If someone wants to rail the entire facet, then more power to them. They're still going to find the spot hours or days after the house has fallen instead of placing a new spot .01 seconds after the IDOC. Does it solve the problem completely? No, but it's a lot fairer than the current method.
Thanks, firec. I thought about looking for something like that, however I wasn't sure how well it would handle adding in time stamps and the name of each person speaking, as well as spelling UO-specific terms. I've only got about another 15 minutes worth of video to transcribe so I'm hoping to post the transcript sometime tomorrow after I proofread it. I'm still interested in knowing about that program though, if you want to provide the url. I think there might be something similar available for Microsoft Word if you have an audio file, but I didn't spend much time investigating it.
