Anti-Macroing

Yeah, but now those of us who don't have a lot of time to actually play, have to spend it ebolting newbie creatures instead of just being able to go out and explore without worrying about being para ganked or some shit like that. I like exploring when my character can hold it's own, not when it has 66 magery.

Especially when I was able to convince a few of my friends to join here because you can macro up yourself a quick start with some hiding, and anatomy, only to have the quit, disappointed.

I agree, skill gain was too easy, but it just shoulda been slowed down at 70+, because, being happy that you finally got 5 or 6x GM on a character is a good feeling, but reliving all the YEARS I spent building characters on OSI shards is not.
