I'm not really sure what's going on here in all honesty. Someone highlighted to me last week that there seems to be a lot of characters completing the heroes quest (you see the server-wide announcement on completion)
Since then I've been paying attention to it and right enough, every single day there's at least one or two groups of characters complete the quest
I find it extremely hard to believe there are that many new players consistently joining the server, if they were genuinely new players they would be running around BW looking for NPCs and books and kit and asking newbie-type questions and that simply isn't happening on any scale that is consistent with how many people are completing the heroes quest
If it's a single player or small group of players doing this on many characters, there must be some reason, it's not a particularly fun challenge, something iffy is going on
I'd encourage GM to please cast your eye over how many characters have recently completed the quest in the last few weeks and see if there's any other pattern in their behaviour. I don't know what's going on but my gut is usually right on things like this, and my gut here is telling me someone's up to something
