Post subject:  Don't Train stat Dex while disoriented

When I retrained my GM status, I was checking my stats right quick by typing train stat xxx/yyy/zzz.

I was disoriented, and it properly showed my wis/con/str were all maxed.

But the dexterity point took, and my dex isn't 22, it's back to the good old 21.

I think disorientation ate my stat point. :(

Not sure if Aging had an affect, bug logged it in the game and prayed.

Every1 be wary just in case.

Would be funny if you lost a stat each time you die.

Death - more than just takin a swim in the River of Death.

That would be the straw that broke the camels back for this MUD...

Obviously, no one in their right mind would even consider it.

More like a sledgehammer - and it'd unbalance any MUD, not just ours. Removing stat points in any way is of course a huge detriment (worse still to link it to death and therefore PK). Obviously this "idea" would never be implemented here.

On-topic: This character definitely needs their pfile looked at - it should have enough history to verify what happened. That and the problem should be easily replicated.

Hey, you find me online, any IMM is obviously free to contact my character and figure out what happened and make sure it wasn't registering my spirit disorientation as non-maxed/temporary dexterity.

If this is a legit bug, very worth fixing.

Ironically, I'm pretty sure SK ran for the first several years with people losing a constitution point every time they reincarnated. It didn't kill the game back then. Of course people were a lot less spoiled back then too. :P

PS. Just in case you were wondering - No, I'm not putting it back in.

Well, there were also other options to reincarnating. I think the "sledgehammer" referred to in this thread is if all death incurred a stat point loss.

Yeah reincarnation was also hell of broken back then though, being able to turn into different races and all that jazz. It had bonuses well worth the consequences.
