I know this been topic before but shrugs lets try once more.
Imho, it would be already time to give bit look on outdated info for example
bat.org is giving. Some things that straight come in mind:

- (Web)Plaque has way many players/names that don't exist anymore. Suicided,
removed, rebirthed with namechange, etc.

- Guild-list still shows at least two guilds that haven't existed in ages.

- Quests. Please... No pretty please. Remove those quests that are undoable
(Duz anyone?!) or not in game (Jim Corbett, already a good joke). From ingame
quest room and bat.org.

This outdated info gives quite a "sloppy" look and quite in vain. Don't think
pressing delete on few lines is too timetaking and really if Souc decides to
grant us Maneater one day, adding that info back can't be that hard :)

These at least are points I see are asked/talked on weekly.

Yours truly,

Speaking specifically of the un-doable quests, is it possible that they have
not been removed because they cannot be removed w/o affecting those who have
the credit/points for doing the quest back when it was in game? Perhaps (and
I do suppose I say this with somewhat a bias) it would be unfair to take away
the earned rewards from those who did the quest simply to appease the vanity
of those who did not? Would a possible solution of marking those specific
quests as ==UN-DOABLE== or ++Not Currently In Game++ not be better? This all
assumes that I am right on the reason of course, and I have read Help Rumors
too, so it's possible I am just ranting like a madman.

Maybe this mud could use a bit more of outside-the-box thinking instead of
"OMG REMOVE THIS THING-THAT-I-DONT-LIKE PLS LOL" posts, but then again, this
is in BS, so go figure.

No Rekcedien, I seriously doubt taking off info from quest room messes up
awards for people who already have those. Why?
There are already many quests that are "hidden". Their info isn't avail in
quest room nor batweb but still are still awarded/awarding just like normal
quests if manage to find and do those.

Heck, there are even secret awards that wont even show in finger but for
example are counted in your quest count... :)

This bash at least didn't convince me at all for not doing those updates I
politely asked

Yours truly,
Z
