Acutally, this is the point I have to kinda disagree on. (though for the most part I generally agree)
Yes, for the most part, a 6 man eq group is what's run but why should we limit mobs so much that we say "you don't need any more than 6 people to kill this mob"? Was there some unwritten rule where you couldn't have this big ugly monster of a mob that was designed specifically for most of the muds population to come together and beat it's head in? The mob that comes to mind here is the firedragon. Most people don't take a 5 or 6 man group there unless they're completely stacked. IMHO, this is ok, so long as every supermob in the game doesn't become this way. Sides.. a couple dirty, rotten, mobs would do some good to compensate for the boredom some people express for "the usual supermobs".
In regard to new players, I would have agreed about a week ago. However, in the last week I've spoken to 1 complete newbie (who just started mudding) and 3 other people who have played other muds. New players are welcome in my book. The more the merrier. I just hope that the people who come to try our mud stay here long enough to realize that most of the people who sit and cat-call at them are mostly little dogs with big barks.
