    Just so it's out there, Riell may be a jackass, but the guy behind her isn't!  
    I thought we had something.  < / 3 I should have known..  women can't Internet.  

    I think my initial reaction is usually "go fuck yourself, piece of shit" and is usually both IC and OOC. Then I realize I had a bounty and get mad at the bounty system (because a certain city enemied me and repeatedly put bounties up for a single incident) for half a second. Usually ends in some fun RP.  Basically, if you reply IC it snaps me out of any immediate OOC feelings I may have had.
    I'm always IC!

    (unless it's like combaty talk and codey stuff)

    She’s IC in discord too, random person defending me from flirting targossians turned out to be my own protege!

    So, be warned: apparently giftboxes fall from your corpse upon death (I feel like that's probably a bug). My good deed for the day was returning three of them to an enemy combatant.

    Happened last night, but I managed to complete three bounties pretty quickly.  I've been thinking on it throughout the day, and sometimes it's really hard to tell if the insults coming in afterward are IC or OOC.  I always try to treat them ICly and assume that the folks behind the characters know it's no hard feelings.  The line definitely gets blurred, though, when you're threatened with an issue because you won't tell them why the bounty was there to begin with.

    Just so it's out there, Riell may be a jackass, but the guy behind her isn't!  Yea, you might be AFK outside a city, and it might be kinda not-so-nice to gank you while you are AFK outside a city, but your character has a bounty on their head.  Bounty hunters don't give a fuck, yo.  :(

    Message #4220       Sent by Achaea
    2019/2/06/20:27 Your large raw stone mine at A steep descent collapsed, depleted of resources. 1 a
    chunk of makaelicite, 1 a cube of verillium, and 6454 raw stone has been transferred to your 
    inventory.

    II rawstone:

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    You are holding:


    You are wearing:
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    No items were shown.


    Appears the mine finished while I was logged out and because I have no warehouse the comms decayed. Warehouse or claiming storage before I left would prevent that, but man that pissed me off.

    (Party): Mezghar says, "Stop."
  • CooperCooper
    If you're going to mine, you need a warehouse. That sucks, but there was a huge forum post left up for months, announce post(s), and in game reminders.

    That being said, it's weird that mines default to warehouse if you have room in your inventory. 

  • SobriquetSobriquet
    Yeh, it's my own fault. I stopped the warehouse as I stopped mining, but then grabbed two massive stone lodes to hit the honors line and forgot that the comms wouldn't last long once the mine finished.

    Honestly, with how often the mines collapse when I'm in Mhaldor, Hashan, or Targossas, I'd much rather them be ferried to my warehouses. Lol. @Sobriquet happens to the best of us mate. Know how it feels.

    I don't see why we even still have "drop commodities/riftables/gold on death" in the game. It's just a recipe for drama at this point.

    Make quest items, relics, and corpses drop upon death. Everything else stays in the inventory.

    It puts a cap on how many you can have.

    That's actually a fair point I hadn't considered.
  • CooperCooper
    It doesn't, it just makes the people who want more have to take extra steps.

  • DupreDupre M.
    It's still a cap. Just not a hard cap because you can spend money and/or time to secure your extra riftables
  • CooperCooper
    So what you're saying is that it isn't a cap. Got it.

  • JonathinJonathin Retired in a hole.
    Dupre said:

    Don't argue with Cooper. He argues for the sake of arguing. You could hold up a handful of sand and say "this is sand" and he would put it under a microscope to find the 1 grain of whatever that isn't sand and tell you how wrong you are.

    Commodities decay if not in rift or warehouse, no reason to drop them on death anymore IMO. Minerals over your rift limit are usually dropped onto ships/stockrooms, it prevents a character having absolutely ridiculous amounts of them on their character at all times.

    I've collected tidy amounts of kelp, irid moss, and inks that people dropped on death or qq. Clearly not everyone is just dropping things in stockrooms. I like the system the way it is, even if I've lost stuff due to it before.

    Gold I typically return to people.

    I can't say what happened to me today in polite company. God damn it. Not a rant at and was in fact a pleasure, but I forget how quick on your feet some of you are and I walked into it.

    I owe Hashan 100k for the guards, but it was worth it! Veilios and I were the only two left, and I figured it was worth a shot:

    Summoned guards, they did their job and cleared out the Ashtani. RIP now though.

    Timestamp: 3:30:30 You begin the arduous process of dismantling a metal tank radiating waves of heat.
    Wisps of steam rise from a metal tank radiating waves of heat.

    You have recovered balance on all limbs. (3.569s)

    (Market): Kuririn says, "Cfs."

    (Party): Veilios says, "Nice Zhedan! I was shooting loki in and out of Phase haha."

    (Party): Rhydian says, "Astarod back in."

    (Party): Rhydian says, "Before manor."

    Wisps of steam rise from a metal tank radiating waves of heat.

    Astarod flickers into existence.

    (Party): Veilios says, "Targeting: Astarod."

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

    Astarod ceases to wield a Shield of Absorption in his right hand.
    Astarod ceases to wield a scythe of shadows in his left hand.
    Astarod begins to wield a Shield of Absorption in his left hand.
    Astarod begins to wield a scythe of shadows in his right hand.
    Astarod's aura of weapons rebounding disappears.
    Drawing himself up to his full height, Astarod speaks a terrible word of power.
    The piercing sound sends a spike of agony into your brain, threatening to rob you of conscious
    thought.
    Astarod clutches at his head, face contorted in pain.

    Astarod takes a long drag off his pipe.

    Astarod takes a drink from a black-walnut vial.

    Astarod reaches past you, plunging Gattan'lier's hunger into your shadow.
    A sudden sense of foreboding comes over you.
    Astarod ceases to wield a scythe of shadows in his right hand.
    Astarod ceases to wield a Shield of Absorption in his left hand.
    Astarod begins to wield a scythe of shadows in his left hand.
    Astarod begins to wield a Shield of Absorption in his right hand.
    Astarod delivers a lightning-fast strike to you with a scythe of shadows.
    A prickly stinging overcomes your body, fading away into numbness.
    As the weapon strikes you, unnatural green flame ignites upon the blade.
    You gasp as your fine-tuned reflexes disappear into a haze of confusion.

    A grey distortion coalesces about the blade of a scythe of shadows, held by Astarod.
    Astarod grows older before your eyes.
    Astarod delivers a lightning-fast strike to you with a scythe of shadows.
    The world seems to grow distorted around you, as if through a thick fog.
    As the weapon strikes you, you feel your sanity slipping away.
    Your sanity begins to escape you.
    The idea of heights makes you queasy suddenly.

    (svof): System unpaused.
    Timestamp: 3:32:22 You cease dismantling the tank.



    How long does it take to dismantle a tank? Two minutes? Fun fights Ashtan!

    I was like, damn, we dead! Can't believe we killed four. Honestly, you had the best attitude I've seen Hashan have in awhile. You had no salt with whatever we threw at you. Hell, you successfully guarded us and shattered our defense. Only reason we were able to mobilize so fast was shaman rezz. You were so non-toxic to interact with, I wasn't even salty with dying to guards. Props @Zhedan, don't let anyone say you didn't try today. 

    It was close tho. NGL.
