Prat? umm ok.

Well since the whole damn mud source is BASED on AD&D MAYBE just
MAYBE that it was meant in the AD&D term? I dunno, I was just making a
point, relax.

Ok, and when it comes down to Role Paying games, and words
PRIMARILY used in Role playing Scenarios, I look it up in the Role Playing
Game Rule Book, Because that gives a more acurate description of what they
mean when its a different description then the dictionary.

I was referring to the Desert Serpentine Staff. Yes, I agree with
you that no way should such things (staffs with group affects) be
eliminated from the code, it is the admins job to police those things. I
was just point out that the ALREADY existing Earthquake staff, that is in
Circle Stock code, would fall into the Very Unbalanced/Bug area.
I *THINK* that the staff (serpentine one) was meant to be used
like a wand, except that it had no target, but since you have to have a
target with wands, whoever designed the zone made it a staff without
thinking about it, and therefore it does the multiple earthquakes per as
many pcs/mobs in the room. I think *THAT* is a bug.
