Whatever the re-balance is, it needs to happen. My interest with the species has gone from fascination, to mild annoyance and recently to disgust. I can't autistically number crunch, but the problems go beyond just numbers, anyway: Dionae have been whitelisted for a while now and so far I've seen nothing that warrents their existance in their current state. It'd be no problem with me personally, if whitelisted diona players added to the community interaction, but as it is now they don't act to mine in any purposeful way. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this. I obviously don't see everything, so I'm sure there's a player (maybe two) on the server who does a decent job roleplaying one while not being a case study in anti-social NPD, I just haven't met him yet. So while I'm not shitting on every diona player out there, please add this to the list: They still don't have to react to injury and the only lore gimmick they've got is that they're so, so alien.
It's a creatively written powergamer magnet and people will keep reaching for the bare minimum requirements of a background story just to ascend into dat sweet, sweet nymph-hood. Nerf them into the ground and let's see how many trees are still standing. I'm co-signing.
