Could you make something similar to the gypsy tent available and free to use for GM/staff accounts from the shades?
If such passes for the gm approved select I can assure you that others will want this power as well who are not gm. They will nag and nag until it happens and ruin the whole point of the shades. Sure their ff may not be granted but still the shades hold tradition value to me, at least, as to be against the idea.
I'm sorry if I'm 'that' negitive person but to me the shades are one of those old places that died off and I feel should be honored to remain left as is. Like the gardens. To me they just don't hold the same factor they use yo in the game when rp wasn't so mainstream.
I know, I know, get with the times. I just hold to much sentimental value for the place to agree to liking the idea. Of course if it happens there isn't anything I can do about it.
I'm just saying you go the shades rp there then. People use to do siuch and even die to go use those zones.
I'd prefer another route be taken... Like perhaps the GameMasters having acsd alts gifted with their gm abilities? So they can simply log onto the other account?
To me that idea fixes more than simply that one prob. What if navs break? I guess they can break for gm as well and have to be fixed by higher staff... They could use the alt account until navs are fixed.
