Greetings girls!

We finally got a tune and it was: orbs.
I have no problem with that, in fact, I suggested this exact
tune already 3 years ago (news display general 3856)...

However, I do have a problem with a few related things:
1. Archwizards succumbing to those yelling the loudest.
2. Where the yellers are people with no experience in leading or
exploring, yet they demand handicaps over proven explorers.
3. And its _still_ ok to pkill/threaten newbies over orbs and
outright steal them.
4. Being insinuated of being an orb cheater. One person starts it
and others, who have no firsthand experience, join in.
You people are classic schoolyard bullies.
5. Time and effort was spent for fixing this. Was this the
top-priority issue out there? Really? :)

So, continue to robot top-end eq monsters, abuse overpowered
guilds, exploit known features and bully anyone not in your inbred
circle of asslickers.
...until there is a jealous enough horde that starts yelling.

Going to disagree with point #2 - orbs, as they were, did not reward exploring
in the slightest. What they did reward was the ability to create maps and
pathfind to those areas - in other words, automation :-) (plus a certain
currently ungettable eq) Case in point, I have E%: 91, but no mapping scripts,
and as a result, I have been able to locate the vast majority of orbs fairly
quickly, but by the time I did, someone got there already - so I eventually
stopped trying, because there was zero reason to (except by making a bot of my
own).


Whether this change helps, remains to be seen, but it's definitely a change in
the right direction.
