Re: Communicating on Cidri
Going on a tangent again, but the main issue I have with rule exploits is that they would not function or scale in reality, or indeed in game reality. The structure of the game world is what is it, in part because there is something keeping those exploits from functioning. Otherwise smarter people would have discovered them earlier and the game world would be a different place. If wishes were truly easy to get, the world would already function on a wish-based paradigm. If all the other exploits discussed here and in other threads truly worked, they'd already be the standard in the world. They aren't, so the logical conclusion is that they don't work like (impersonal) you think they do.
The game world of Cidri is an inefficient place where most people have scant options and must take the most basic and simplistic course of action, regardless of what options lie in the hands of the few and powerful. If there was some simple way of making things otherwise, it would have already happened. Either that or some shadowy cabal has a vested interest in keeping the world the way it is. Which could make for an interesting campaign setting.
