Shattered Kingdoms

Alright just checking if this is a big or not. Apparently Nerina is now gate free? Gates can no longer be made to anyone inside the city and you can't gate out to anywhere from inside

I honestly think this is how Sith'a'niel, Exile, Kol's Moot, Teron, Nerina, and Menegroth should be. Main capitols of each Kingdom shouldn't be accessed by means of a gate.

So hope this is true.

Not a bug. And not entirely true. Moved to gameplay.

Why is that?

You're completely insane.

A) Unless recently disabled, the entrances to Nerina have scripts that shut the gates when attackers approach making attacking the city impossible unless you are a harlequin. But I can easily see Achernar giving them true seeing.

B) It's more of an inconvenience to non-hostile people than it is for hostile people.

Is this change coming to all cities? It seems the only place that you can gate into or out of in Nerina is at the plaza. Does this mean that hanging out anywhere else in the city no longer counts towards hours played for the purposes of the anti-hoarding update?

This is a terrible change.

I understand the desire to make it more difficult to raid an Inn, especially when imms are trying to make Inns a more ideal place for socializing and rp and stuff.

However, I am very lazy, and if it turns out that there are no NPCs that can be gated to anywhere in cities, I will be disappoint.

I can't remember the last time I've been sitting in an inn and someone just came to raid innocent bystanders. Maybe once or twice I've seen a tribunal character attacked and killed, or someone randomly targeted and killed, but sorry, cities are not fortresses of safety. As a fountain RPer, I find this pretty annoying.
