The general point of Shakal's post was not \"he did this\", and should not be

responded to with \"well someone else did that to me\". He was asking for

clarification, which is probably not forthcoming now since I'd imagine most

deities who might deign to respond don't much feel like wading through the

vast number of posts that Shakal's original query has spawned.

On another note, while Blotto brought it up, I'm curious as to how people feel

about teleport pills. Most people I've spoken with agree that they're too strong

as a nearly surefire in-combat escape route, as the only real counter after

somebody eats a pill is easily stopped, and it's simple to trigger putting up

diffusion after teleporting to stop being summoned. Does this seem to be how

pills were intended? The pill escape affects some professions more than others,

namely, professions that take a longer time to kill and need to sufficiently muck

up their opponent before finishing them off. Mages, especially, have a hard time

fighting somebody who enjoys eating these little things.
