If you were on staff for one day....

[Harmless]

I'd probably animate whores for the underserviced sectors of the population. I'd probably start with a half giant whore, then do a male whore as soon as I saw metekillot logged on, then a dwarf whore, and an elvish whore in the rinth. Basically trying to play a little of every whore role I want to play but don't have the character slot for. I'd do it for a hilariously cheap price in every case too.

[Marauder Moe]

I'd hand out superpowers to a bunch of random PCs.  Like one or two coded supernatural abilities/spells each and/or a ridiculous boost to one or two stats.

[Beethoven]

If I could figure out how to do it, I'd implement the "imagine" command I've craved for oh-so-long. I'm not a coder and I know things are harder than they seem, but surely it wouldn't be -that- hard...basically a clone of 'feel.'

I'd use my temporary 8 karma to roll up a psionicist and try it for a few hours, then get myself summarily executed and go out in a blaze of glory.

I wouldn't do anything world-wrecking or anything. I'd probably just look for noobs and help them dig in to the game world with the help of some well-placed animations, and help them get going. Then I'd keep some lonely solo-RPing d-elves company by animating their prey or some Blackwing elves or whatever. Just some little things. I wouldn't feel qualified to do more in one day.

Why would you delete the list of typo's people have bugged over the years? That doesn't make much sense to me.

Not satire at all. I'm serious. Reason: Look at Adhira's post after mine - there are almost 1000 typos, with no expiration date. There might be typos that are 10 years old that are on items that don't even exist in the game anymore. There might be a typo in a room that 20 different people have typoed about. I'm guessing all those typos on multiple NPC "twins" and "triplets" are a pretty significant proportion of the total typos, even though the error itself is singular.

So - delete the whole list AFTER going through the game and fixing what you can see first. That way, the new updated list will be updated, and anything that is no longer applicable will no longer be on the daunting list.

[Nyr]

Actually the oldest typo is 4 years old, there's some worked on every week.

[Patuk]

If companies will hire illegal immigrants, Zalanthans will hire elves. Not for their board of executives, but they will be hired.

[Adhira]

Yeah, those low hanging fruit like ones on things that don't exist anymore are the kind that we'll go through and delete every so often. So they don't show up in the totals or resolved, or in the waitlist.  The same goes for multiples.

[Talia]

I actually look specifically for the multiples, resolve the problem, and then mark them all fixed

Gotta say that bugs are a low priority for me compared to character apps, clan reports/requests, animation, RPTs, building, projects...Ehh, screw all that, I'm just gonna go load about 20 gith into the Gaj and call it a day.

[Barsook]

Maybe the playerbase can help with those?

[Talia]

With bugs? No, you need to be able to log into the game with staff powers to fix bugs. Typically they are things like duplicate NPCs, typos on objects, crafting recipes that don't work, and other small issues. They are not game- or immersion-breaking.

[Barsook]

I see.  Stupid idea.

[Lizzie]

Regardless, that's what I'd do if I were on staff for one day. Not because anyone else is slacking, but because that's what I'd want to do with my time.

[RogueGunslinger]

I'd be afraid of losing a bunch of typo's, but if they're already getting more than they can keep up with maybe it's not a bad idea.

[ShaLeah]

Run a Halaster style HRPT then NOT approve any new characters for the rest of the 24 hrs.

[Molten Heart]

Run a Halaster style HRPT then NOT approve any new characters for the rest of the 24 hrs.

I'd help.  I'd make he HRPT one where Tuluk takes the war to Allanak proper.  They'd lay siege to the city, forcing the Highlord and his servants to move the city to a lesser known land across the silt sea that turns out to be rich in resources. Here the servants of the Highlord plot their revenge.

Obviously this would take months to plan but the action would happen all in one day.

Thats just mean ... I'm still pretty sure half of my characters deaths are his fault.

Yessssssssssssssss!

And ShaLeah's evil, by the way.

[Desertman]

Integrate a more "tame" version of halflings and make them playable once more, but instead of being isolated little forest savages they would be able to enter cities etc...

[Voular]

I'd only animate Vennant and stare at people in the Gaj.

[Zoan]

I'd animate that knockout templar in the Bazaar and do a 'day in the life', wandering around ruining people's lives with her bitchiness.

[solera]

I would give a random normal PC an elemental taint.
