Is it just me...

... or are there no [hostile] spawns on the server anymore?

There are there. I have seen them plenty as a tracker. In the [redacted]. BUT if someone comes and kills them, they dont' respawn for a long time.

Havent seen a road spawn w/o a DM though.

Not until Sand gets time to finish his spawn system. As Cloud said, sometimes in the [redacted].

They pop up on the more dangerous bits of the Trade Way like by [redacted]and south iirc.

But yeah, [redacted] by far is the place with the most -- supposedly there are [redacted] too so best be careful.

Oh, and obviously other rarely-visited areas, [redacted]

Someone must be dealing with all of them though...as i've not run into anything other then a [redacted] and a solitary [redacted](might have been a [redacted]) for some time.

Yeah, when I first arrived in BG after the Sand rebuild/DPSS I found plenty of [redacted](and a single [redacted]), but in the past monthish, I've only played twice and both times the [redacted]was completely empty. Was curious if it was because DPSS had decided that all the monsters had been killed forever, or if Sand removed all mobs because of farming.

Then why not PM Sand and ask, instead of spreading a mass amount of meta here about where spawns can be found, what type of spawns, and how often they reappear?

Sand threatening to ban people (jokingly? :P) from the server for wasting his time with silly PMs may have persuaded people to avoid him for the moment ;)

KEEP META INFO OFF OF THE FORUMS, PLEASE!

Much appreciated.

You didn't have to repeat it since no meta was spoken about since your last post, DMN. :?

Simply rephrasing my concern, as Sand having a lot to deal with atm in no way excuses meta being shared on the boards.

I'd argue that what's mentioned is common enough knowledge. If someone asks what a "dangerous area" is, pretty much it's "stuff off the trade way and far from farms"

And I'm not getting into an arguement over it. KEEP IT IN GAME. A simple "I have seen spawns within the last X amount of time" will suffice as an answer to the OP's question....details OOG are not necessary.

Thankyou for the edits dan.

Seriously guys. You do realise you can get banned for meta?

Posting spawn points, numbers and frequencies is something can do in WoW, but not here. Try engaging brain before engaging keyboard.

So for the people that rarely see others on, how are they meant to find out commonly known information like how dangerous (for example) the cloakwood is and what creatures can be found there?

Any flaming fist could tell you, but without others to ask in game...what, are we to pretend they don't know?
