Remove the stupid exp tune I say. If a monster is preferred due to its
exp-worth it should be tuned ONCE and for all to the correct level according
to the difficulty for killing it. Want to scatter players around the batworld
you say? Ok, make monsters exp-worth higher the farther away from BC it's
located then.

Make mobs exptune to drift even lower and raise slower but make it _personal_.
This would encourage these eowyn-dudes to actually explore new areas.

I like this idea as well. Unfortunatly, from a coder's perspective, I can tell
you it probably won't happen. The amount of memory/disc space to keep, for
each monster in BatMUD, a list of each player who has killed it, how many
times, and when, is borderline impossible. There are other less critical
drawbacks to this system, but disc space is the biggie.

Well could it be personal list, like last 50 monsters ya have killed are in
yer personal list and if ya kill monster that is in list ya get penalized. If
ya have bunny *50 there of course ya get more penalty. 50 different monster
(if ya do 50 bunnies ya still ahve 49 others) shouldnt take too much disc. Of
course to avoid clearing list with 1xp monster should be done somehow, like if
you kill monster thats exp is like 1/10th of the average exp in list it wont
be counted.
