Yes I get it. Now for the love of god stop interrupting my autoexplore/travel.

(long story short the scythe's passive cursing should probably be disabled disabled for Ash followers since apart from being extremely annoying it does absolutely nothing)

Notes
(0027049) Cryptic (developer) 2014-08-20 04:39	Thrown by itemproc.cc:curse_an_item which is called by artefact.cc:unrand_reacts I don't see an obvious way to prevent the message spam without doing something quite ugly. Simply checking for the player wielding spwpn_scythe_of_curses and preventing output wouldn't work; the same method is used elsewhere and we don't want to squelch that output.

(0027050) Cryptic (developer) 2014-08-20 04:40	Confirmed in 3ed950e3555

(0027063) wheals (administrator) 2014-08-20 18:17	Should be fixed in 0df2da (d7ced1 in 0.15).
