This is a little unfair, Bracer. What we're discussing here is not a quickfix, not a magical switch that can be flipped.Bracer2 wrote:Bah!.. enough, we dont need more discussions, we need results...words mean nothing only results matter to me, feats and skills r used by all classes, and used imeddiatley, at the very least once CMA and A is takin u should get an imediate list of very basic crafting recipes, anything else is not fair, logical or even in the spirit of D&D...Bah!, no more words fer me, i realize this was probly a waste of my time, though i would love to see a change in Das. i take my leave.....Bwahaha!
As Artorius said, overhauling the trade system is not something the Staff takes lightly. Not only does it mean a considerable amount of work (when other projects are on the go, many of which take up a majority of the Staff's time), but it also is something that can change the working economy of the server. Granted, there have been good arguments as to the state of the economy, and how much that will change, but the fact remains: sweeping changes like these often have more repercussions than we realize initially.
Discussion is important to prevent mistakes. I assure you, Bracer, that I have personally witnessed staff decisions made in haste that have utterly destroyed aspects of a game, on and off Dasaria. That, and the amount of effort it would take to reverse any damage, is reason enough to be cautious.
If you are unwilling to stick around to offer input as the process continues, then don't expect the ideas you have to be implemented. If you are unwilling to even play on Dasaria because we won't act immediately, your argument for crafting reform will suffer. In fact, the merit and value of your arguments understandably suffers.
Imagine a politician who resigns because the House / Congress wants to challenge his ideas before ratifying. He's not going to make a lot of progress for his constituents, is he?
This is not something that happens overnight, and it's a bit ignorant to assume that it should be.
I will not comment any further on crafting, as I have never been a very good tradesman, but I felt I should say something on the merit of open, free discourse and valued discussion on these matters. Where the integrity of the economy and the server is concerned, time must be spent to evaluate our options, and what is wholly good for the server; from the perspective of community, economy, and from the experience of the Staff, of which some have assisted in administrating Dasaria for nigh on 6 years.
