    think it could be possible to add a few more port in locations to this in the brewers building in pok, every time i use it there are 15 other toons afk right at the port in spot. It's pretty annoying

    Thanks,

    Be careful what you wish for. They may add West Karana as port location.

    i meant as in the same building not all over the world

    Just move the location to an open space in PoK.

    Outside a bar rather than actually in it would make more sense.

    Why is it a problem that the port-in is stuffed, its not like you get stuck or anything?

    and the stein should make you max drunk, unless you have high alcohol-tolorance... :p

    Counterproposal:

    If anyone is there on port in, you have a random chance to spill their beer. This requires a drunken duel. If you lose, you must remain on the floor for 12 Norrath hours. Naturally, the larger your character, the more beers you could potentially spill.

    when there is 15 toons sitting on the same spot it lags while they and the mounts all load. then you there get stuck in side a pile or pushed off to the side. ether way its 1-2 mins id like back in my play time

    On my computer, it just means that the 15 chars are untextured and grey for a few seconds(without any notable lag).
    I think there are some advanced graphic options you can fiddle with.
    Try to enable "stream item textures" and set memory mode to "most memory usage".

    Move it to the top of the pok library

    NP here either and im on FV never had a problem with moving or anything and fv is one of the heaviest played servers. Some people complain bout the dumbest stuff. I mean they could move the port spot but thats not gonna fix anything.

    Add a bouncer npc, more than 10 people in the bar throw them outside!

    Not seen a problem with this spot on AB, even when half the raid port there after an abort call and hit their steins to gate out.
  16. Jumbur Improved Familiar

    A raid-evac is a bad example, as most of the present characters will already be cached. Hitting lobby-throne-gate would be a better example. Freezing the game for 2 mins is not normal behavior though.
  17. Sobmre Augur

    never said move the spot, i said add more spots that you have a change to port in too.
  18. Warpeace Augur


    care to be more specific?

    Already implemented. Spot #2 is the soul binder. The port clicky is an easy farm in the bazaar. Have fun adventurer!

    Simple solution, if someone remains on the port in spot, they get instantly gibbed when someone else ports in (quake style). I bet a few of those would make people move asap. haha
