IDEAS (feel free to reply):
Idyllic: There should be a color controlling option for other people's damage, namely group members.
Exo: when you look in a pack, if you dont have the combine thing on, you should see numbers beside the items, like in
shops
Firebreeder: its not fair that prayer cost 35 mana when bamf only cost 5, prayer cant even be cast on other char's,
why not lower the mana cost to 5 anyways since praying doesnt really require THAT much energy
Disaster: a reply2 and reply3 etc command, to reply to the 2nd or 3rd person in tellh (so we can still reply to
someone even if someone else sends us a tell)
Criterion: temples detect demons and push the demons out of the temple... or maybe it cuases pain to a demon to stay
in a temple or blessed room...
Fireheart: the dive belt sold at lexies should be scuba. pretty please? *mutter*

I have a feeling this would be practically unworkable, particularly with
respect to out-of-guild skills. What happens to the XP penalty? Is it
retroactively eliminated? That would be a nice way to gain levels...
On the other hand, if it would be easy to code, and wouldn't upset our
precarious game balance, then I'm all for it.

Naah. For one thing, it's already plenty easy to raise alignment by
killing evil mobs. Besides, don't evil people want to be healed too?

> something good would be just as evil as killing it.
See above. Already easy enough to alter alignment.
