Suggestions

I have been MUDding for a while now, and Armageddon has a lot of neat aspects to offer, but can be improved in several ways:

Stat Increases:

Include the random roll, but allow players to increase their stats like this:

Every character goes through different statistic developments at these ages:

13

16

18

21

24

At every statistical development point the character may choose 2 stats to increase, one will be a slight increase, the other even less.

Characters starting past any of the cornerstone ages (eg a character that starts at the age of 20) will be able to choose stat bonuses he would normally have had if he started a character from the age of 13, but if a character was started and developed from the age of 13 all the way to 24 his statistic bonuses would be higher then someone who started their character at age 20.

Needless to say, the years would be adjusted by racial age (eg an elf would not get a stat development at 13, but it would vary per race).

For example:

The ages above would be for a human, but an elf's would develop something like this:

15

21

26

With elves the stat development would be much greater at every development date then that of a human, due to the fact that they take much longer to develop, but when each are at their last development stage the net stat gain would be equal.  Characters who actually play their character through each stage will have a higher stat gain then those who didn't.

It's important we the players see the difference between submissions and suggestions, and don't put the latter onto this board unless it's something we can work on ourselves. Else, we tire eachother and staff, and screw up our opportunities for contributing.

Shanahan, this is from the rules of the forum:
QuoteWhile this is not a place for submitting or discussing code ideas (those are best written up and emailed to mud@armageddon.org), some ideas may involve scripting proposals. That's fine. Bear in mind this rule of the thumb: the more complicated and work-intensive a project, the less likely it is to get put in.

Could this thread be moved to the code discussion forum, with this post deleted?
