2016 3Scapes Player Survey Results

  Thank you to the 30 people who responded to this year's survey. 
  Here's my summary of your opinions:
 
   1. Mages and Priests are our guilds most in need of an upgrade and 
      since Rogues are going to take awhile, let's tweak Bards to make
      them worthwhile in the meantime.
 
   2. Half of you don't think you'll ever max out a character. The
      other half think you will and would take advantage of an end-game
      option to start xp'ing from scratch in exchange for permanent
      power perks.
 
   3. A few of the more interesting vaf perk ideas include some new 
      variations on gswap, customized coffins, and a numbers option 
      for xp earned per mob. 
 
   4. No one wants breastplates and greaves (see above for Priests)
      but a good number of you think we could use some more nice amulets
      and others.
 
   5. Preferred mob size varies quite a bit, but the largest number of
      you would like to see more 500K-1M mobs followed closely by both
      1M-5M and 5M-10M. Very few of you want to see us code more mobs 
      under 100K.
 
   6. In general, you'd like to see us expand "help areadirections" to
      include more higher level areas. The most common suggestion was
      to add Diablo 2.
 
   7. There were plenty of ideas for making 3S easier to recommend to
      new players. Some of the better ones include more mudside guild
      triggers, a new website (done!), more new high-end areas, more
      party-friendly guild abilities, and improved Major professions.
 
 
   Oberon, Xules, Zaor, and I will start chipping away at these so
   look for more announcements soon!
