Race War

[luna_sexton]

This was a flag players were able to set on themselves. This started in SD1, but I do not remember why it was turned off.
I wanted to drum up discussion about this topic. Race war might be an item that had an issue and was disabled instead of fixing.
Over time sd1 players can post their thoughts or stories about racewar being being a good or bad event.
I look forward to hearing everyones thoughts.

Heh, I was looking through old posts and this one caught my attention. I didn't play in SD1 but I did play on SD2. I don't recall RaceWar being optional (pkill was optional). I could be wrong but I think race war just was and the side you were on was determined by your race, of course. Also, at the time innkeepers and shoppies weren't in peaceful rooms. If you were Trollish and wandered into Stoal's you were killed in a heartbeat. I guess it added some "realism" to the game but most people just found it annoying. I mean why would anyone willingly choose to be auto-agg'd by half the mobs on the MUD?
