Seriously, what the heck?

I'm seeing people like WaterLord practically WARP across the screen and casting about 5 bullets a second, and I'm on a fairly fast computer with broadband.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that quite unusual? I've seen people with higher levels that don't go that fast, so what's up with this. If this is actually possible to begin with, there really needs to be a cap on speed. I cast a spell at someone, he runs all the way around that person in time to block the spell. That's kind of odd. Either the speed of people should decrease or spells should move faster.

I myself have been pretty fast. Witha dragon amulet, 30 dex, and two RoTs, I've been faster than 5 speed, and with some of the other speed enhancing items around, you could get more (unfortunately at that speed, berwean chain slows you down :o)

Ugh so you CAN get that fast? That needs capped x.x.

No. There is a speed trainer and many, many people use it. Though I am not accusing him of using it (cause I haven't seen him first hand) but I have seen some others who have used it and I am quite disappointed. One guy even admitted he used it and his account was Kane88. He told me "I don't use it constantly, only when I want to get across the map in a flash".

Are there any admins on Kingdoms anymore?

Stefan needs to transfer my rights there to my new account.

(Old one expired + Classic access was removed without warning/transferring my rights).

It'd be nice if there were admins on there soon, I told someone to stop swearing in messages and people started bashing me in masses.

Yep, that very same account I have seen using speed trainer. Its easy to tell when they are using one. Their char moves weird. Like they move fast but take less steps than usual. Its difficult to explain. Once you see it happen you'll understand.

I have 3.5 speed, and I was using heavy rods of bullet and icestorm.
When you use a heavy rod, it does not require the usual casting animation, the spell just sort of casts without it. I tried explaining this, but you insisted that I was using a speed trainer. As I said before, don't go around making such accusations until you've spent more than 30 hours on a server.

unixmad · #12 01-10-2004, 06:30 AM

It should be possible to detect trainer on kingdom... I will ask Stefan to work on something.

marcoR · #13 01-10-2004, 06:31 AM

*makes wipping noise*

skyler87 · #14 01-10-2004, 06:34 AM

Of all servers, Kingdoms should be the easiest to be able to detect the use of speed trainers on..
I don't know why noone's worked on this before.
