Recently a problem with Prayer was brought to our attention. When clerics were in combat and were attempting to prep a spell the command PR as in PR HE 10 was interpreted as PRAY. This can be a bad thing when you find yourself upon your knees in RT while at melee with a worthy opponent.
The player who brought this to our attention suggested a fix where PRAY had to be entered completely to be recognized. We looked at this, and determined that this fix while desired was going to actually be too resource intensive to do easily.
As a compromise the following fix is now in place. If you are in combat and attempt either by choice or by accident to PRAY that little voice in your head that oft tries to keep you alive will ask if you are sure about this course of action. At that point if you really wish to Pray at the feet of an opponent (who knows, they might be merciful ::smiles::) you can do so by typing Pray again.
As with any fix, let us know if something unusual should arise.
