[EDIT: SOLVED]

Hi,

does anybody remember if there ever was a limit of number of deaths and details about it?
I remember it was supposed to be 1000 when I first hear about the game, but I can't find it anywhere now. I spoke to a friend and he remembers there used to be a limit too. Was it in some dev blog? A video perhaps?

It has totally blown my mind that there is a limit on number of deaths in an MOO and it was probably one the thing that piqued my interest most, so I am sure there was something like that. I just can't find any info about it now.

I've never heard of anything like that. There is a limit on *unique* deaths, but not on total, as far as I know. And I'm way over 1000.

Hmm, I do remember hearing about a game where after a certain number of deaths, you were dead forever. I don't recall which game that was... but definitely not this one, sorry! Long ago we did discuss various death penalty options on the now-defunct elder game blog, and ultimately settled on the "hardcore" item-break mode.

These days, we do have some players who like to create their own restrictions for their alts, and I've started adding game tools to help them (use the chat command /behavior to see the optional restrictions we track). So I'm sometimes tempted to add a "true" permadeath mode for those crazy players... but it'd probably be after 1 death, or maybe 10... 1000 seems high to me!

I've died about 5300 times so it's definitely a no. I believe Legends of Aria had some servers where death was permanent. There was a medieval RPG game where you play as your descendants trying to build a life for themselves, I cannot remember the name.

Some people are on both ends of the spectrum.

Thank you guys for your answers, I appreciate them!
I could have sworn there was a limit, but apparently I am wrong.

I think i remember playing that game. It was mostly focused on building up your business, getting married, getting kids, then dying and your kid took over. It was fun...up to a point. I remember dropping it when it became insane trying to automate all your businesses you kept acquiring as you married into another family and your kid inherited half the town.

I think they had expansions planned, including some seafaring stuff, but it's all lost in my memory now.

Perhaps when the Orc race is implemented there could be an option to enter the game as a young orc going through the Challenge of Blades. When you die, you're done!

I couldn't find my V number for a long time and to be honest now I regret that I found out about it. The fact is that I believe very strongly in God and in mysticism. What I found out shocked me, because the last four digits of my V number is 1010. For you, it may be just numbers, but for me it's the secret number of an angel that has its own complex meaning sunsigns.org. Many people will stop reading my post now and throw strike at me, but I will still say what I think. This number is associated with the divine Kingdom and inspires us to achieve success and abundance. In any case, if you notice that you are haunted by this number, then you have a guardian angel who hints to you that you need to change and become a better person and not stop there..

What does the "secret number of an angel" mean? :confused: I mean I never heard about this before!
