YOU DO NOT EVEN KNOW THAT THEY'RE DOING ITPlay a cleric, lose 10,000xp because you don't know who someone follows and you resurrect them.
Leanthar - 4/12/2006 10:11 AMPretty much what Orth stated. Keep in mind that we have game mechanics here and we need to allow players a way to not lose XP in a way that is beyond frustrating and is caused just by a game system. This is one of those that must be allowed so that clerics are not punished (if they are thinking before hand)--game mechanics is all this is. It is not 'casting' as Orth stated--it is a way to not punish players by losing xp due to a game system.
Drizzlin - 4/12/2006 1:45 PMI am not trying to cause an issue, I guess it isnt that big of a deal. I just wanted to shout out I thought it was a tad lame the way the spell is being used.
Weeblie - 4/12/2006 10:39 AMYes... yes...But, how can you be sure that they are using it "on" you and not the guy next to you? Or the invisible guy next to you? Besides, the cleric could probably stand 10 meters away, not even looking at your direction.

I just wanted to shout out I thought it was a tad lame the way the spell is being used.If we nixed things for every time someone used something in a lame way, we'd have a sad world.Your argument would have been more constructive to begin with if you didn't generalize the usage as you so nicely put it in the subject of this thread. "Clerics who cast "divine whateverBecauseIcan'tRP"I cast it. I consider myself a good roleplayer. To this end is probably why you're seeing an emotional defense from me personally.
