Repeating NPCs 11/14/2003 01:10 PM CST

Are they running out of rumors or they just like to repeat themselves? They give 6 rumors, and out of 6, 3 are the same thing. I get this all the time.

>A stableboy ponders for a moment before saying, "You know, I did hear an interesting tidbit from a customer. Remember awhile back when the Traders Guild was renegotiating their contract with the gem sellers? Well, seems the negotiator for the sellers was a well known member of the Dne family. I've been hearing that the gem sellers had him killed because of the terms he settled for. I can hardly credit it, but thats what I've heard."

Yea that bugs me to the repeating rumors. Is there anyway to fix it so that the table they tell you rumors from kind of subtracts the rumors they have told you and then gives you a better chance of hearing rumors that arent the same one over and over.

That was 5 unique rumors out of 6 times asking. That's not too bad at all. It's not like there's roundtime on it or a maximum number of times you can ask, it seems fine to me. I just keep asking over and over.

The rumors travel... The thing i'd like to see is when GMPC's are in front of a rumor spot the event that happens goes into the rumor mill...

Like "Idora was seen talking to Lindryl at Taelberts Inn, Isn't that interesting?'...

or something along those lines.

since the Rumor NPC is there, they would of course see it.
