There's already a fantastic server called Original Thain, why build another one?
After playing on the Original Thain server for a couple years, and having already built a bigger more advanced server myself, I wanted to build a hak free server that would allow players that did not want to, or could not download and install hak packs, to use all of the cool things I have built for NWN. I started a hak free module myself, and some day I may open it up for play, but being that it's unfinished I decided to look around for people that wanted to increase the creativity of their server and open up more things to role play about and more tools to role play with. I wanted to make advanced role playing as simple as possible and inspire people to role play about different things than I see on all the other servers I've played on.
I wanted to give people a place to have more advanced characters (beyond level 20) without having to Role Play a lot... Many Many Many servers promote the wrong things when it comes to Role Playing. The lot of the servers out there believe and support "Socializing" as Role Playing and you are rewarded for being more "Talkative" or "Social".
This is not Role Playing, in fact you can play a role without ever saying a word, and you should be rewarded just as much as anyone who has a big (leave out cuss word) mouth. The level your character can attain should not be based on special circumstances decided by people who are rarely in the right place at the right time to see you role play, or don't understand your role playing techniques.
We are not trying to replace Original Thain. We are not trying to one up Original Thain, in fact I've offered to add any of the things found here to Original Thain right to the development team of Original Thain. I was told that I could help and they usually only offered active players roles in development... *sigh* I've been an active player for over 3 years, and I've brought several players to Thain. After nearly 9 months of waiting just to get to help with bugs they already have and to get to see the forum where I can post fixes, or even see the things they need help with, I gave up and made Thain Expanded.
Thus Thain Expanded was born.
