| When I first started playing Vives a week or so ago I was totally stunned at how beautifully crafted the server was. Absolutely one of the most visually detailed and immersive world I've ever been on, and I've been playing NWN online since it came out. After literally years of searching, I thought I'd finally found the server for me.
Then I got killed. I discovered that you cannot come back from the dead to play again unless someone else raises you. Realistic as this may be, I found it ... |

| Well, I was killed and sent to the Fugue Plane. There I saw only two useable objects, a sign and a birdbath, neither of which did anything when I clicked on them. I sent a tell to another player asking how to return to life to play again. He (I'm pretty sure it was a guy) told me the only way to come back was to have someone else raise you one way or another, and that there was no way to come back on your own. That was pretty much it.
If there's something else I should have done, please ... |

| Argh.
Argh. Argh. ARGH!
I am an idiot. Please forgive me. I was confusing Vives with another server I started playing at about the same time. All the comments about Vives being a great server still stand, but I got confused about the reason I quit. It was the other server with the annoying death rule. I quit Vives because it was too difficult for a low level character to earn gold.
This is what I get for playing NWN at 3:00 am. Sorry about the misunderstanding.

| Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but as I said I've been playing NWN a long time and I was playing a ranger character who did advance a few levels. But I had to stop playing because I couldn't make enough gold to keep him alive.
Maybe I'll try again with a new character.
Of course, now I CAN'T play because I updated NWN, not expecting to return. :(

| Well, I've created a new character and done more exploring, and I see now that I was being a little impatient. Having taken more time to familiarize myself with Vives, it's now obvious that the economy is as carefully constructed as the rest of the server.
And so it is with great pleasure that I hereby declare Vives as "The Coolest Server In The Universe." I am thoroughly hooked. If I were to spend several years tearing out my hair to create the ideal server, it would be just like Vives. ... |

| It appears my second try was a waste of time. The DMs are rude and the mechanics of the server making playing here severely annoying and not much fun, so I'm quitting.
