Im just curious about something. Quests take a good deal of time to code, fair enough. Why do Creators code the quests in the first place? They make no money out of them. So they make quests for the enjoyment of others and to show how imaginative and funny they can be. So if someone uses a quest list, why does this mean that the creators hard work and time has been wasted? I assume people that complete the quests do so for a reason as we all know there isnt any xp or monetary reward (none worth talking about anyway), so why do people persist?

The answer? They're fun. Figuring out how to do a quest with the aid of a list doesn't make it any less fun, you get to see the jokes and the humour behind each quest and you are able to see the details without growing bored from having to hunt around or work out the correct syntax. So if people are enjoying the quests and finding the humerous, is this not what the creators set out to achieve in the first place? Or did they just want to try to make difficult quests in a competition to be the first to create a quests that no one can complete?

As far as i can see, all the bitching about wasted time and effort is not needed.
