You can already if you're willing to play a lot.

I've always been a dwarf paladin; here and in live.

I gotta say, I really enjoy being a paladin here. Unsolicited group invites! Holy crap! It's like being a CLR/SHM/ENC on my live servers. I've asked to join a group on this server exactly once (thanks again for the fun Gnotfat). I normally have the insane luxury of accepting a group when I wish. Where is all of the min/max bigotry that is endlessly referenced here on the boards? I did see this happen to rangers... in Live.

I knew there would be the original penalty. I never cared one bit and happily resurrected my character. I'd play a paladin even if the penalty were never removed. I used to wear it as a badge of honor.

If you don't want me around for that, well... your loss.

Since agro isn't a penis, I'll gladly hold it for my tenure in a group.

I can't think of a player I have personally encountered on this server that openly rejected anybody from a group for any reason other than "I've played with that person... he/she is really bad..."

Meh. I guess I don't get around much. (True)

snip.

When was that? I don't remember ever hearing about it until well into Kunark, and then in velious it was removed. 90% of the time I spent playing it was never an issue, either due to general ignorance of the problem or the fix.

Unfortunately Rogean will probably do nothing that wasn't classic. .

Hate to break it to you but like half the server isn't 'classic'. That's not really an excuse for stupid things to still be in the game anymore.

Half lol. Exaggerate much.

Agreed. But I'm not the one in charge.

This comment is bullshit hyperbole. Yes, there are some ways in which it this server is not exactly classic. However, show me a server that is closer. Heck show me an actual playable server that is even attempting to provide the classic experience.

In reality, given non-infinte resources, and the inability to gain certain knowledge, no server will ever be truly 100% classic.

That's not really an excuse to not come as close as is reasonably possible. I'm so sick of glib little posts like this that are running down people who are actually DOING something, and without pay at that.

Alternately, I would accept making it apply to the character only and not affecting the group. Less ideal (I play one, right?) but it solves the social problems caused by the mechanic, which is the bigger issue.

It was like this for a while here before they made it how it was now. It was pretty awesome playing a paladin and literally getting 1 blue to their nearly 2 blues in the same group.
