Bitching about powergaming is very classic tbf. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Thanks for your submissions to the EQ Glossary. Normally, I prefer to
receive these privately, but since you asked publically (and since a few
others have asked):

re: Mules/Twinking: During Beta, Muling and Twinking were not approved (as
I understand it). Since no statement ever came out changing that status, I
naturally assumed that it was still the same when I began playing. A GM I
questioned about it shortly after I started confirmed it for me (I wasn't
playing during Beta, just reading the boards), however, since then, several
people have commented that it is not true. Mules and Twinking, while not
specifically approved, will not get the character(s) deleted. Well,
basically, I left the comments in the Glossary in the vain hope that some
newbies might be too afraid to try it, thinking their characters might be
deleted. Since it now appears that nothing will halt, or even slow the
onslaught of powergaming, I have decided to delete the references. It is
apparent that Verant not only approves of powergaming, they thoroughly
encourage it, leaving the slower or more roleplaying among us to twiddle
our thumbs in the dust.
