As the Argonian guard says in Shadowfen, "Proper behavior is like an egg that hatches good citizenship."

Oh golly, I love those Argonian sayings. They're the closest we have to Ferengi. "I raise the spine of commerce."

I also love it that you call your Clannfear "Bob." A perfect name for a Clannfear...

How does something like this even happen anyways? I know the monkeys doing all of the programming have a lot on their plates, but adding additional lines of code (or toggling it on/off if it's already there) to allow pets and the like to suddenly have collision detection shouldn't exactly be an accidental thing.

I'm curious to know what manner of spaghetti code they're actually using to cause changing one thing to affect a completely unrelated thing.

They turned it on so that it would be there for enemies, but forgot to set it so that it would be turned off for friendlies.

I do try to unsummon them in towns, but sometimes i just forget they follow me around, when i play on a sorceres. I am sure i am not the only one. But i do appologize and will try to think about it.

You just get stuck, can't move/roll/anything...can't even use the wayshrine to port away,

Odd, every time it's happened to me I was able to click on the wayshrine to port away. Maybe playing 1st person allows you to use the shrines from a farther distance or something?

Even the one time it happened when I used a door to change world zones I was able to turn around and use the door again to get unstuck. (and in the latter case, thankfully just entering the zone opened the first waystation in the zone, which I was then able to use to get in)

Just for the record, I'm no longer doing this because I like this game too much to get banned.
