The Danger Setting

[TheHopscotch]

I think that Viridian's situation should set a precedent for every kill that may be considered made without enough reasons or that are anticlimatic.

I think Sol's death would have benefited from a "I thought he died" for example.

That's my take on it. I don't think cap 0s should be removed because getting captured, looted, and put in jail over coming across a stunning RPL 221 villain from Achyon hurts in many ways despite being proper IC.

I personally got told bad words for doing a cap 1 during war matchups against people I'd never met before. Sometimes a perm is enough of a risk, especially against someone you've never met before / have no IC with.

As a major or minor antagonist alike, same for you hero types, you should generally have a base understanding of what will and won't be fun for your fellow players. Say you do end up capturing them, there are a multitude of ways to make that engagement enjoying and exciting for the player at hand beyond simply tossing them in a jail cell.

That's my take on it, anyways. Dangers should always have that inherent risk of something more, perms / temps can be handled so quickly at the moment that the entire setting lacks a bit of excitement.

There is no 'safe' setting on dangers and aggressives, you have a chance of being perm'd/temp'd from any aggressive and/or dangerous fight.

The cap0 first encounter culture that has been created, was created to allow characters to actually have 'fully' interacted before they fucking murder one another.

TLDR : Aggressive/Danger fights, even on the '0' cap setting, aren't 'safe' I don't know what you're talking about fam. Everything that isn't a spar has weight and consequence.

Additionally, if they were all danger cap1's I'd wager that we'll be seeing more deaths on first cap, which would be disappointing.

I implore you re-read the post beyond the first line, everything you're worried about was taken into consideration.
