Ouch! Very ugly quoting....please see the FAQ at the bottom of this message. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Grimau Lysik'an" <grimau_lysikan@HOTMAIL.COM> > I wouldn't think of demoting as "rolling back the clock", unless that is > what the original poster meant (I've forgotten the original details). > I've implemented it as: > lose ability to use any skills not within the new level -- snip -- This still leaves open the potential for abuse. For example, assume I get skill1 at level 1, skill2 at level 2, etc. I am level 5, and I work my way up to 10. At each level from 6-10, I use all my practices on skills 1-5. Then I am demoted back to 5. Now, I am way better at skills 1-5 than I should be. I suppose this could be handled by randomly reducing the player's remaining skills, but some accounting would be needed for players who have practiced skills 6-10. Only if you want to be fair, I suppose.
