Mall Duels

For me, I found it a bit silly too, but I would guarantee that if Flint's responce was posted when players wonder, then they would (assuming they're not idiots, which, as i've come to discover is at least 5%) understand and almost surely move on.

This is just one example of what I would say is poor communication or miscommunication on the rules. I don't mean to be destructive on any GMs in anyway, but I would say that explaining that "its the rules" is closer to condescending to a player versus "some people have lackluster machines, and thusly, we try to help those players by not overwhelming them with spells in an already high density enviroment."

Urm.. was that an "I agree"?

Thought i may aswell have a say in this aswell. So yeh, it's pretty annoying. Especially when you're the ones being spam requested whilst trying to shop. Which is probably another reason. It's also offputting when you're looking for an item and all you can hear is the clashing of a blade, and the scorch of a, well Scorch. So overall. If the GM's/Admins say don't do it.. Well, if you're stupid enough to do it anyway, you're seriously uneducated as to know who your authority is.
