Hi, Ralph. I *do* agree with you, that this is a step to make the game
more fair for those who don't powerlevel and run up their characters.
And I do think Mikaela (Hi, Mik!) is, for lack of a better term,
misrepresenting the case of the higher-levels. There is no easy
solution to the case of higher-levels bullying their way into an area,
and Verant is simply trying to come up with a solution that, if unfair,
is at least the least unfair of solutions.

Ralph, we're all on this list because we in theory enjoy the game, and
enjoy playing clerics; I understand that you might be frustrated that
someone disagrees with you - it's always a shock to have someone just
come out and say "you're wrong in my lights 'cause of ...". But that's
no reason to be petulant. Take a deep breath and remember that we are
basically here to have fun; snapping at people who have no real impact
on the code of the game only serves to heighten tensions.

Smile. Have fun. Go heal a newbie with Greater Heal and watch their
eyes light up. =)
