    I think that was the only time that I've ever actually enjoyed group php in this game other then the ctf (and even that was a bit meh). Heck, I managed to, like, double my k/d. It is also the only time I have ever appreciated lightning as a skill.

    I think that that announce about bows was the best thing to wake up to.

    Does anyone here hate when you go to welcome a newbie cuz its your job and the newbie turns around and acts like he literally knows everything in the world? Come on! Horrible role playing!! In a hurry to just blast to full member. Only wants a mentor cuz they have to. Seriously! I don't care if your a veteran at the game!! At least try and act young! This is as much about role playing as knowing the mechanics! Okay. Rant over. Haha
    I mean, I agree with you and all, but ranting is over that way ---------->

    Fitz: "I can't like this enough, and being an Occultist when I have a know-it-all novice who gives the answers that convey 'I'm telling you exactly what you want, with no effort what so ever', I get immediately suspicious of your motives as a player. Anyone else have this problem?"


    Yes. Totally. I wonder if they just want a power grab or something. Or try and cause havoc. Or maybe just selfish..

    Tried my hand at writing narratively for log records that was supposed to be posted on newsboards. Took much effort, but I think I like that better than copy/pasting.

    Sry, @Aepas, took a little creative license on that one.

    I was expecting to read a log when I saw the post, but was pleasantly surprised.

    I liked it a lot, it was very event post-esque and I think it makes it a lot more fun for people to read. Event post writers don't get enough credit as it is - it's not easy to condense an event down into a narrative and make it worth reading as opposed to a pure log.

    Loved the event post, and yeah I think it's a great idea for events, though a lot of work. But doesn't really work for sermons, etc so much.

    I love condensing events down into a post. It's hard work, but it's really enjoyable. I've written posts like this for the Order before, for our various events - Neraeos encourages it a lot. I've found I really love telling stories as Mel, as well. It's fun and it captivates people, and I just live the feeling of it.

    I've never really posted them publically, though, other than the Order. Maybe I'll do one or two on the forums. Hmm.
    And I love too                                                                          Be still, my indelible friend
    That love soon might end                                                         You are unbreaking
    And be known in its aching                                                      Though quaking

    Would rather have a know it all novice than one who pretends to know nothing and wastes your time when they've been playing for years. If it gets too much, tell it to stop being such a smarmy little shit and be done with it.

    Novices have been living in the achaean world for 18 years. Why can't they know quite a bit about it? Yes, those who come in claiming to know everything are annoying, but I'd rather a mid ground. You know geography? Your character likes to explore. You know a lot about your city? They grew up there. But you should never rp that you know better than superiors, that's just stupid.
    It's not too hard to play a very quick learner and make it apparent that your teacher doesn't need to waste time on the basics without waving around a big red flag proclaiming that this isn't your first character in this house. This one was closer to the latter end of that spectrum.

    eh, it isn't a rant, per se. There's some coolness to getting to claim the title of the last forestal in Mhaldor.

    If there was an associated rant, it's that things like this always remind me that I actually need to work on interaction and rp. I goes none of it right now

    I've actually really enjoyed this icon stuff, even if it does all happen when I am at work or sleeping. azn time yaknow.

    It's given a good sense of Mtown V everything and even though there seems to be a lot of bitterness, I'm sure it's giving a better sense to the worldwide factions. Alliances are being made stronger, and Mhaldor is becoming more infamous. We'll loose our icon, today likely, but that's fine. Mhaldor used it as a weapon rather than the passive stat booster, so nothing is really lost and I think that falls well into terms with Mhaldor's ideals.

    On the downside, the level of bitterness I've seen on it is pretty bad. I know Mhaldor is the bad guys, but all the offhanded and passive aggressive stuff. Just bleh. It's a game, we're the bad guys, we do mean things. Don't go on a holy rant and damn the Mhaldorian characters as well as their players. I like to think I'm still a good guy...sometimes.

    And Mhaldor, for shame. Say nothing in victory and less in defeat, or however that saying goes.

    Less ranting, more icon offense.
