For now, reincarnation is a rather painful and slow process (of course you can
alter this to some extent with the piece of code that is in the game, at the
cost of huge amounts of experience),and even though Huppu's statements are
understandable from one point of view (no reinc at all vs reinc with this
'new' system), and even though i can(!) lead parties, it still sickens me to
reinc.

So what im suggesting (not solely alone(!), possibly supported by everyone
with more than 100M exp in this game), is that reincarnation taxes should be
lowered, and the reincarnation regain exp to be regained at a more hasty pace.

This only (READ HERE ADMINDS) because people ENJOY reincing, and if the
reinc-tax lowered more quickly, people would reinc more often, and the same
goes with the exp-regain factor, if it was easier to reinc, you'd get rid of
more exp and cash from the game, at a higher speed.

Yeah yeah blame me for the 'possibly supported by' part, but i still think the
general outcome of this 'idea' is obvious, more fun for the reincarnating
ones, and less exp and cash from the game.

Of course people would ENJOY reincing with more xp back and a lower tax. Who
wooldn't love to be more powerful? The reason it is this new way is for
balance. It is too unbalancing to have a guy be a max merchant, max mage, max
tiger all in the same week through reincing. It is too powerful of a tool to
just throw around cuz people like it. People ENJOY having tp's, but we can't
just give em out all the time (unless wizzes are drunk, then it is ok).

With the previous reinc-system, you could NOT be a max merchant, max mage, max tiger all in the same week. Previous system kept everything 100% balanced. Someone really had to fuck the system and show he can code (applause).
