I thought it was Dragon Kill Points.

Why do guilds award DKP for something that isn't a raid kill?

ie: Your guild has 20 cleric bots - there's never a situation where there isn't a cleric bot available to log into for a raid.

MemberA decides he wants to level another cleric bot for the guild. Once done, MemberA earns 2,000 Dragon Kill Points. Nobody uses the bot, but still MemberA reaps the rewards of their newly earned Dragon Kill Points. Not a single dragon was killed to earn these points.

Actually - let's be real. Giants in Kael aren't dragons either. Should there be a seperate category for GKP?

Neither is Tunare. Or Cazic Thule. or Innoruuk... but you can't call those Deity Kill Points because people would confuse that for DKP. Also can't call it God Kill Points, because people would confuse that for GKP.

Why don't we just change DKP(Dragon Kill Points) to EPL (E-Peen Length)? Seems much simpler

There are an awful lot of kobolds and goblins in the game called Dungeons and Dragons.

The real dragons were the heroes all along.

ethical consumption is a myth, yet we cannot eat rocks and also can't prove rocks don't have feelings, too

Is it morally acceptable to play on emulated servers like Project 1999 when the original game developers can no longer profit from their creation? Considering the nostalgia and community these servers foster, do they enhance or undermine the legacy of classic games?

Is it morally acceptable to create a game that is designed to draw you in for as many hours as possible by limiting meditation, HP regeneration, experience gain and travel options?

To hook an entire generation of computer gamers on MMOs?

Is it morally acceptable to profit off of that, I wonder?

Yes because recyclable entertainment content is preferable on a planet with finite resources and area. Condoms are polluting our oceans.

Also, nobody is profiting off of Project1999, not just the OG creators. The people who run this server have most definitely had a net loss year after year in operating costs. Nobody is paid, we don't pay anything. It's a museum.

Is it morally acceptable to donate $20 to visit a museum that displays an artists work - when the artist can no longer profit from their creation? Does that enhance or undermine the legacy of Leonardo da Vinci?

Is it morally acceptable to purchase the boxed VHS set of Girls Gone Wild Complete Edition?

As communities flock to servers like Project 1999 for a classic experience, are we potentially stifling innovation in the MMO genre? Could our longing for the past prevent new ideas and gameplay mechanics from flourishing in future titles?
