    Or I could just be stubborn in that people have misused the word so often that it's come to have a separate meaning completely opposite of its original, and I'm refusing to acknowledge it.
    Language evolves! You can't stop it! SUBMIT

    Do you also refuse to use hopefully as a sentential modifier? :P
    No I do not, because they've been using -that- for the last several hundred years, whereas you can find people using nonplussed correctly in published works all the way up into the 1990's. 
    So you're on the cusp of change! A linguistic revolution! Life on the bleeding edge, man. Take it and love it; a few hundred years from now, Trey V may very well be nonplussed by this usage of nonplussed.
    A few hundred years from now, I will be dead and, depending on which religion you subscribe to, unable to give one single, solitary fuck about the matter.

    This entire linguistic tangent is double-nonplus ungood.

    A voice thrumming with vibrato hushes the city streets on Zanibaar as a 
    magnificent bass singer captivates the island with his singing.

    Boring? Hardly. When a God (Vastar) shouts about a city vs city egghunt, you jump to it. Especially if he's a potential patron for your city.

    You pick up a yellow egg.

    Kross comes flying in with a jumpkick from the northeast.
    He slams into you, knocking you off your feet and stunning you!
    Kross balls up one fist and hammerfists you.
    He connects to the left leg!
    Kross balls up one fist and hammerfists you.
    He connects to the right leg!
    2294/4269 3264/3894
    You are too stunned to be able to do anything.
    2294/4269
    Nemutaur arrives, following Jhui.
    With an aggressive hiss, a black mamba slithers in from the northeast.

    You reel as your mind is viciously battered by a mental assault from Nemutaur.

    You suddenly perceive the vague outline of an aura of rebounding around 
    Nemutaur.

    Sticky strands of webbing spray out from Dunn to cover you.

    A bloodleech leaps at you, clamping with teeth onto exposed flesh and secreting
    some foul toxin into your bloodstream. You stumble as you are afflicted with 
    healthleech.

    Jhui rubs his fingers briskly on a Tarot card.

    Jhui hurls a tarot card with the image of the Hanged Man on it at you. As it 
    reaches you, a huge mass of rope bursts out of it, entrapping and hindering 
    you.
    Jhui throws a Lovers tarot at you and as it strikes true, you fall hopelessly 
    in love with him.

    You are no longer stunned.


    Let's see...half my health gone, two types of bound, and five afflictions. The prize goes to the first person to guess what happened next!

    I get that it's city vs. city and sanctioned FREE PK and you have to win at all costs, but it's kind of lame, anti-competitive and boring to run around like that and annihilate a bunch of noncoms to collect eggs. 
    Well oiled machine, that it is.

    Well obviously from this log we learn that Ashtani are very protective of their eggs. Dont touch them.

    Ellodin sounds like the Eleusian version
    of Peak/Xith.

    Don't use Peak and Xith in the same sentence, let alone separated by a slash.

    Then don't make terrible puns on a regular basis! On another note, they should make a shit eating grin button. Would use.

    "That person has chosen not to let you perform emotes on him/her."

    (Sorry, on mobile)

    That's actually possible? One can prevent others from performing emotes on them?

    @Alcinae: yes. Simply placing someone on your ignore list does that.
     -help ignore:

    What it blocks:
    ---------------
    - SAYS
    - TELLS
    - MESSAGES
    - EMOTES (Directed and not)
    - TMOTES
    - CLAN TELLS (CLT)
    - PARTY TELLS (PT)
    - YELLS
    - SHOUTS
    - Letters via the MAIL system.

    What it doesn't block:
    ----------------------
    - CITY TELLS (CT)
    - HOUSE TELLS (HT, HNT, HTS)
    - News posts.
    - Any form of repercussion from IC circumstances.
