James, it is also not productive to forget to include somethin the other 400
people on the list care about. take it to private email or include a nifty
idea.

obcircle: I was just pondering how stupid it seem that mobs do not use the
wands, potions, and staves that they hold. (potions i can understand, the
players would never get their hands on them) I think i am going hunting in
mobact.c and add a bit of code that:
if(FIGHTING(mob))
if(GET_EQ(mob,WEAR_HOLD)&&(that item is a wand or staff))
if(!number(0,20))
figure out who should get the effect if it is a wand(heal/harm)
use_item(mob,target,obj);

This is how the cycle has progressed:
Me: ideas
Others: some good, some bad, here's why we think why
Me: response to bad, counter-arguments, further points
Others: response to responses, more counter arguments
Me: response, question of accuracy of statements, evidence provided
Others: irritated, somewhat snippy replies
Me: irritated, snippy replies
<--- argument degenerates here
< bunch of drivel about how the argument has degenerated and bandwidth abused,
with no topic relevant discussion deleted for sanity >
Somewhere the entire discussion began to be about the people involved
and not the ideas themselves. That's not productive.
