When looks can kill

Post by Aticus » Fri Dec 11, 2015 10:12 pm

The other day one of my characters looked at a guard only to suddenly find himself in battle. About the same time I realized that the keys hadn't felt right, I scrolled up to see ki wiz instead of lo wiz.

So... could we require the whole word to attack?

You know, I literally never even think of aliases.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Alias for k and ki are the first thing I do for new characters!
Found myself in a similar situation where I went to "l wizard" and instead "k wizard".
It ended badly. Lol

I use the account alias menu so I have it on every character's profile.
Justice is not neccesarily honourable, it is a tolerable business, in essence you tolerate honour until it impedes justice, then you do what is right.

Spelling is not necessarily correct :)

Same. Except for when I don't. Then I suffer and have greater reason to pay attention.

Since we are there, an alternative is using a Dvorak keyboard layout. With that the risk should be reduced.
