This might be true today, but all these stupid items are still what -caused- the deterioration of RP. IMHO, they distracted people from what the server is really capable of and what was in it's blueprints. They encouraged people to go out and spend all day killing things than having fun and using the server to it's potential.
I played the christmas preview, all those years ago (the christmas before last, i think...), and then for a lil' while after the thing was released. I left 'cause of stat down and food depletion, but when i left, everyone had just come from 2k1 and the roleplaying spirit was still -stroooooong-. We all couldn't wait for the kingdom islands to come out so we could roleplay and have fun in our new castles. I left. When i came back, what was new? More monsters, more items, more weapons, more armours, and more ways of killing people. Oh, and RP was non-existant.
HMMMMMM
