Current clone mechanics are blatant discrimination against people with ADD.
Under the current system those with ADD are more likely to forget to renew their clone after death, and get skill point loss. Where as the non disabled community gets to remember to renew their clone.

I want an auto clone upgrade option. It's only fair.

I hear WoW is a good game . . . you should try it . . . and not come back.

But then he'll forget to repair his stuff (armor?)

Tetris sounds optimal, or pong!

Wouldn't that make having "different levels" of clones almost pointless?

What's ADD?

Stupidity should be a bannable offense.

But seriously, a button that would automatically update your clone after being podded or once the kept SP limit is exceeded, provided there's ebnough moneyz in your wallet.

What's the hurt, fewer buttons to press for the same functionality I wouldn't complain about that. Straight

But is unlikely they would lose any skillpoints cause they would not remember to buy many skills.

that's a common misconception in those with a poor understanding of the mechanics of higher brain functions

ADD is quite common in people with disorders like dyspraxia and dyslexia
and there is a very good chance that a dyslexic person is a LOT smarter than you.

I'm autistic. Asperger's, actually. Comorbid ADD is part and parcel in my case, and you're full of crap.

Why is it that whenever someone doesn't get their way they scream discrimination? Do people believe that making accusations is a better way to get what they want than a valid, well reasoned argument?
