Well, if one kingdom is better then all the others, they get all the stats.

No, they can't if the idea will stay the way it is at this point of time.

Hmmm. Maybe the fact that you are trying to get your jollies out of kingdom members fighting over stat points.

Not everyone thinks that fighting is a fun thing to do anymore. If you want a good example, look at the ratio of pmoders to bmoders. And if there's an idea I haven't heard, why don't you clearly make it known to everyone, then?

You know, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I should be one of the people to know how the forum works pretty well. Also, this is the forum section for Graal Kingdoms, Bjorn. It is for the server. Not for...

Nevermind it.

I assume the only think you can imagine if you hear the word "fight" is some giant battle with swords where people get killed. Well, at least it sounds like that.

I'm thinking more about quests, minigames (Matris, Breakout, ...), special labyrinths, hockey and football matches, etc.

Instead of saying 'fight for stats,' use the word compete. Competition implies good sportsmanship, and is a lot cleaner.

Even still, I fail to see how noble kingdoms playing football for leet gear is much better.

In the end, it all just hinders roleplaying.

I agree. I may be in the horrid minority, but I believe new kingdom items should be devoid of stats.

Items should have stats.
Noone ever say the stats will be very high.

I'm sure folks would like having stats on a kingdom item, but i really would like to start focusing more on how to RP better now and not just stats anymore, it may not be the reason, or it could, but kingdom items were made probably because one person who was in charge wanted to outdo the other leaders and made something with desireable stats (the stats were also grossly high making their item overpowered) and it carried on from there.

Dustari and samurai mainly have boots that add lots of stats, and the recent pirate boots i see have high stats also, if you need stats on kingdom items think outside the box for a minute, any kingdom shield, boots or whatever WILL be a worthy item to own, but instead of having ONLY good stats make a bad stat to them also, such as dex-2 or something similar to the tower shield, it's a great and rare shield but it was probably the ONLY item i admire because it's balanced.

So my suggestion would be add both good stats and bad stats to future items, there are more than enough items without negetive stats already, or just DON'T add stats since kingdoms should try to RP more and not worry about who can own who.

We really shouldn't have to compete for stats. They should be put on items to fit the kingdom.

You'd think that the staff would have learned that by now, considering what has happened the past. I'll give an example:

When all players was promised capes, they were happy, cause they were told they were for looks, NOT stats. Yet, the staff makes them ridicoulously expensive and PUTS stats on them.

Will you ever learn?

Hey, who is to say someone won't pick up a kingdom item and sell it off for the money. Or destroy it simply because they dont like kingdom only items.

hm.
