Not really sure why, but it seems there is an "auto fly" on log on for races that have innate flying ability (griffons, sprites) which doesn't always make sense. Is there a reason why you log on flying when you logged off landed?

When you make an SK character, you actually are controlling a bavarian orphan. When you log off is the only time they have freewill. Obviously, he was busy doing something else when you interupted his life by logging on.

Just type <la>. It solves the problem fairly quickly last I checked.

You also are returned from the River flying. Oh, and polymorph.

However, that said, doesn't really bother me at all. Like VelvetWinter said, it's not that hard a problem to bypass at all. Throw it as a line in your connect string, make alias/triggers for logon and/or whatever else. Throw a nice custom emote in there while you're at it!

The polymorph one is the only real annoying one. If you do it while sitting at least, when released have to stand, then land, then sit/rest. That much just makes no sense.

FFS people!
Next you'll whine on how you logged in and died due to NOT flying.

Wow . . .

I'm glad someone finally brought this to the attention of the IMMs. If you play a griffon or a sprite, and for some reason don't want to be flying, you have to type land EVERY SINGLE TIME you log on. It's pretty aggravating.

Also, sometimes people greet me, but I couldn't care less who they are. This usually happens when they greet everyone in the room, or are trying to rp with me for some reason. This is really, really annoying, because then I see xxx is here, and I'm like, who the F is xxx? Also, my low int character ends up forgetting people who are actually important and worth my time. I think we really need a command like "forget xxx" so you don't have to remember somebody else's useless character.


Or, you know, maybe both of these suggestions are [REDACTED] and a waste of time. Could go either way.

I like the auto-fly.

I'd hate running around somewhere forgetting that i'm not flying.

If you log out somewhere you need to be flying, you are doing it wrong. I specifically make sure that I am not only over solid ground, but landed before I log out.

Wow Rennus, really? I hardly think this is a mighty issue that needs to be adressed. I cannot imagine how terrible it must be to land everytime you log on. Big freaking deal.
