Your dragon and my werewolf shape are both large size, which is generally agreed upon to be the largest 'reasonable' size category. Anything bigger (Huge +) tends to get in the way more dramatically. Those are the ones that are specifically being addressed. Dragons might be a slightly more egregious offender because they tend to have a larger length footprint too, with giraffe like necks and large snaking tails, all of which extend the model footprint as a whole.Taihou,Jun 16 2016 wrote:As one may had noticed, I never played anything bigger than Kuro (who is the same size as average wervolf in wolf form), but I feel as my moral duty to say few words in defence of those, who do, because I appreciate having such characters around.

What I was saying is, that to me it is nay personal interet, but I just feel sorry for those, who are getting hot under the collar.Altair,Jun 16 2016 wrote:Your dragon and my werewolf shape are both large size, which is generally agreed upon to be the largest 'reasonable' size category.

I've spoken about the increase in dragons' level adjusment - going a bit off topic - not to discourage to select races with that size, but because mantaining a LA +3 for a race that's having all those privileges would keep a technical imbalance in the server, which I doubt would be in favor of staff and players altogether.Lucadia,Jun 16 2016 wrote: All races are being reduced to 3 ecl or less for completion of the project from my understanding. Adding more ecl is not going stop players from using the large dragon size when they been kindly asked over and over to not use it in certain areas for courtesy reasons.

I can pretty much guarantee that you're alone or close to alone in that opinion. Heavy LA penalties aren't fun to deal with and they're incredibly restrictive when it comes to build options.

Bumping the original purpose of this topic because certain players are ignoring the ruling set down by staff on this (otherwise, there wouldn't be a server message on login).

1. Some dragons aren't in Sigil willingly.
2. Some dragons despise taking humanoid form, and don't care if it inconveniences anyone.
3. It's not that hard to navigate, use some of that (admittedly low) brainpower.
4. Dragons are dragons, not people who occasionally dress as dragons.
EDIT 5. I'm tired of people constantly bitching about dragon size. And I'm ESPECIALLY irked that the DM's have the gall to threaten players to reduce their size, damn your RP it's inconvenient for everyone.

6. Some dragons endanger all dragons by not taking a managable shape (large or smaller), as the staff have stated on innumerable occasions that abuse of the larger sizes will endanger the availability of those sizes as a playable option for future generations. Shapechange won't kill you.

I'm going to posit a riddle.
1. I drive really slow in the ultra-fast lane while people behind me are going insane
2. I use public toilets and I piss on the seat
3. I walk around in the summertime saying "how about that heat?"
4. I play a huge dragon and park my ass in the middle of the bazaar when I know that it annoys the majority of the playerbase.
What am I?

Fine. I'll stop playing a dragon, then. I'll just be a tiefling and sit in the Bazaar.
