RE: Public Inquiry: spoiling private quests on main rule
Force-Attuned Krogoth Wrote:well, Loki, the Kobolds thing isn't as cut-and-dried as you seem to think. There are three maps the array of melee kobolds, and then three more with kobold archers, who are still blue dogs. And when you have to search the map for an invisible clicky, basically mousing over every tile on the map, for six maps, for each of twelve clues, when the quest is supposed to be up for three days, and you have to work all three of those days, you may very well look for some help. As I see it, the time constraint completely changes the flavor of the quest. Not only are people more inclined to cut some corners to be sure they get it done before it goes away, but there are also more people doing the same quest at the same time. When they can take as long as they wish, it's alot easier to tell them to screw off.

that's why I included this part:

Loki Wrote:If the player at least gave it an honest attempt to try then sure help them, but for those who whine and complain and say "oh I just don't want to look I just want gearz". I say don't help them >_>

As I said, if they gave an honest attempt to check both the garm map and kobold map then ask for help, then I have no problem with people helping them. It's the ones that as soon as they get the clue don't even move from a spot before asking EXACTLY where the next one is. But you are correct on the time thing.
