If I recall my MMO history correctly here, it was introduced to keep people from looting certain items after PvP battles and certain "crafted" items that were supposed to be class specific in a general type of MMO that is classified as "theme park." In open trade and crafting MMOs that fit the classification as "sandbox", the tag not only has no purpose, but becomes counter-intuitive to the other mechanics of the game.

Because trading is getting out of hand and something must be done to stop it, amirite?

Personally I'm in favor of removing the chat system.

Why not just make it so that the timer of curios in HnH only goes down when you're actually online? That way you can atleast break into the hiding spot of their alts and kill them.

Re: Curios in Salem?
Study time is too long then... Who will be online 24 hours to get one curio done? Curios with very long study times would be worthless unless if you also lower study time with that change, which would be niceOrcling wrote:Why not just make it so that the timer of curios in HnH only goes down when you're actually online?

Re: Curios in Salem?
My biggest issue with the curiosity system in H&H (didnt have chance to play Salem) is the fact, that it promote "nonplaying" (passivity) over "playing" (activity). I dont currently have any problems (besides lag) to collect/craft in 2 hrs enough curiosities to for next 2-3 days only log in to put new ones into study and not to play otherwise at all.
What I would do would be keeping curiosity sytem as is, but expanding the discovery one:
1. every "action" in the game would give discovery, not only collecting/creating material, but also makign final item, building, even using skill for the first time.
2. different actions/crafts/builds would have different LP weight - while first digging or harvesting branch would still give only low lp, building a house or a mine would give a lot.
3. you would actually not get LPs only the first time, but each time you would get baseLP/(2^how_many_times_you_already_did_this)
