yep and buffbot i also see. perhaps interesting, simply for the fun: we up keep/tower doors/wall, and allow the scrolls to drop, this 'll give a better apparence for tower raids :D

The ram scrolls were disabled back in the day because they were abusable:
If you entered the ram and moved very close to the door, then disembarked you often could get into the tower without having to knock the door down... something to keep in mind if you are planning on implementing them again.

Was important, was talking with Tired about this earlier and I wondered, yes the rams were a little odd, ok, how about we make a static ram, that doesn't move? :-D hi dinberg

Regardless of how perfect you try and make the code, there's always going to be a way around perfection. Nothing's perfect, but I would give Storm players the benefit of the doubt to do more in the frontiers. Rather than just beat the door down, there's a way to slam it with something.
Database problem? Yea I can fix that.
