The Elder Stats

The way that the filtering system would work, if you even put one Mod in the Mods Installed area for a character - it doesn't matter what the Mod does - it will still mark you as having used Mods and will place your character in the top members that have used exploits or Mods. I might just allow characters that use Mods to be factored into the top characters overall, and just have two sections for top characters - one section for characters that use exploits and one for characters that don't. I'll think about it. But, as it stands right now, there are two sections for the top characters: One for characters that don't use exploits and one for characters that do.

It doesn't change that at all. But, I did go over the 'benefits' some of the houses/castles have: In particular, I noted that all these castles I use have an alchemist - that in itself isn't anything more than a great convenience ... but, they do sell a full set of journeyman apparatus ... which normally isn't available until you go up in level, but you can buy it outright at level 1 (if you could afford the castle - you have to buy these castles for 100K). The castles also have a smith who sells equipment that are level items too - elven, orcish, ebony ... I guess these do boost the character up in a manner. (duh )

So in essence, mods/exploits versus vanilla is how to look at it overall. Makes sense to me.

sounds like a great idea!!!

Thanks. This idea has actually been put on hold for the time being because of other more important features being developed. I would like to get a prototype of an overall statistics page developed sometimes this winter, though.

Good deal Tom.

BTW nice idea X. (Just shows you Xavier thinks up everything and Tom does all the work 'na I'm kiddin')
