    These threads have been done to death. The absolute best thing to do re: forest conflict is to delete it because it's so heavily skewed in favour of the aggressors. Eleusis is forced to defend whenever Mhaldor wants to holo (RIP :() or exterm with absolutely no way to respond in kind; if you get ganked in that situation, so be it. I'd roll 20 deep at all times if I was in Eleusis's situation, not gonna lie.

    There are plenty more balanced avenues of conflict that Mhaldor can engage in with Eleusis, such as shrines, city raids, etc.; that Mhaldor does not have the numbers for that does not mean that forest conflict is suddenly not all kinds of stupid.

    What forest combat needs is a shot of testosterone right in the boy boulders and duct tape over the mouth over the Eleusian pacifists that propagate this sad trend. They are begging themselves out of conflict so they can be left to their own selfish devices. This I cannot abide.

    I, along with many others, have selflessly given purpose to Oakstone/Eleusian membership as a whole. Without us, and forest combat, they lack a united purpose. Without purpose, its these people that need exterminated, not just their trees.

    Be careful what you wish for. The same guys crying for forest combat to stop are the same ones that seek to put a harpoon on any type of conflict across Achaea, this is just the precursor. Their cowardly, infectious, conflict-avoiding attitudes mar their ability to think clearly, and thus, I make my final judgement.

    Forest combat needs upgraded. Exterminations should rattle through Grove-Preservation like a thompson sub-machine gun goes through a yellow bus full of retards. Embrace forest combat, eat your god damned vegtables, or quit Achaea. You're not going to weep and issue your way out of this one. Have some self respect and dignity. Suck down a bottle of cheap thunderbird and get back some of that courage you guys had in your prime. The old forest leaders are turning over in their graves listening to these new, tight pant-wearing, emo leaders that are crying for mercy all while warm piss trickles down their leg, the only warmth that embraces them in the cold harsh realities of the greatly essential forest fight.

    Is this why 90% of yours and Tiamat's exterminations are off plane during off-peak hours and you run the second anyone enters the area? Cause you are trying your best to foster good conflict that each side enjoys, creating a good gaming environment for all?

    I just got back and I know this. Get with the program guys.

    3.7.3 Hall Monitors - The temptation, the reality

    (See also: HELP META MONITORS)

    WHAT IS A HALL MONITOR?
    -----------------------
    A hall monitor is someone who publicly reminds others not to misuse
    some public forum, most often MARKET, but also others.


    BUT BUT - SOMEBODY IS MISUSING MARKET (or NEWBIE, etc)
    ------------------------------------------------------
    You hear someone who is not buying or selling on MARKET. He is breaking the
    rules! (It could also be someone on NEWBIE who is not asking or answering a
    question about how to get along in Achaea). This is a great injustice, and you
    alone are qualified to help! You must quickly call out on MARKET "Buying or
    Selling only please" to protect the world.

    No. No you mustn't.


    HALL MONITORS DON'T HELP
    ------------------------
    Speaking out on-channel (for example, MARKET, whatever) has three problems:
    - You are now giving attention to the person who's breaking the rules.
      (and that is what the person wants)
    - You are yourself violating the rules.
    - You may be embarassing someone who really didn't know.


    HOW TO DO IT RIGHT
    ------------------
    Use private communications! Yes, tells or even says if you are close enough.
    Be polite, and let it go - the job of enforcement belongs to the Gods and
    Goddesses and Administrators of the lands.


    WHOSE JOB IS IT?
    ----------------
    All adventurers are welcome to help out, but in the end the job belongs to the
    Immortals of Achaea - Gods, Goddesses, Celani, and Guides. It's best to leave
    it to them whenever possible.


    OTHER PLACES TO LOOK FOR HELP
    -----------------------------
    HELP CHANNELS       - Lists the channels and the rules for their use.
    HELP LANGUAGERULES  - About obscene, discriminatory or hacker language.
    HELP ROLEPLAYING    - The other "real" world has no place here.
    HELP SPAMMING       - Repetition and empty communications: what not to do.
    HELP HARASSMENT     - Very serious, and handled very seriously!
                          Please ISSUE for cases of harassment.

    Flying above Ascending the Shallam Road.
    The bright sun shines down, blanketing you with its life-giving warmth. The Shallam Road ascends
    into the shallow, wooded hills that the founders chose as the site for this impressive city. Simple
    yet elegant, the marble paved road that greets weary travellers as they enter the sprawling hubbub
    of the metropolis is awe-inspiring in its finely crafted architecture. Stone buildings cluster
    around what appears to be the spiritual heart of Shallam, and a breathtaking spire of emerald-hued
    crystal glows with its own light at the centre. All around and on different levels due to the
    convolutions of the hills are the small homes and alleyways that cut in between some of the larger
    structures. Havyn Shu'in-Crescent, Crystalline Stargazer is here, sprawled on the floor. Her face is
    partially concealed beneath a raised hood. She wields an elemental staff in her right hand.
    You see exits leading north, east (open door), southeast, south, and west (open door).

     

    There's a floor in the sky :-/

     

    edit: god these smilies suck

    Nice try, Cooper, but reminders to stay on topic are a glorious thing which anyone can provide. In this case, I shall. This is your last warning. Further derailments will result in post deletions with benefits.

    Thanks Scarlatti for giving me a good laugh before I logged off tonight.

    Edit: Since it's not a picture. One of those Jarrods was green. Preceded by this:

    Ringing through the ether on a resonating harmonic, the voice of the Great Bard resounds, "I'm going
    to need more artefacts if this costume is to be convincing."

    The sweltering heat of the forge spills out across the land as the rumbling voice of Phaestus booms,
    "Meow."

    You shout, "Lord Bard, if You'd like to borrow mine, it will be a near-match."
