    Probably being a little biased here but the Templars were a pretty functional house (except for the lack of visible and active patron) with a full roster, active officers, a clear and defined RP.  It needed some improvements in some areas but it had a pretty defined role for Good.  Moving forward its unclear to me if I can just submit another house charter similar, especially when the directions we've received so far seem like what the Templars were already doing.

    Being ignored means the other person doesn't want anything further to do with you, and you're better off just letting it drop at that. Be judicious in using the few communication channels still open to you. If you know someone is ignoring you, and you go ahead and try to find ways to make them pay attention to you, you may be entering the harassment arena, which may or may not result in the Administration's involvement.
    You are ignoring: Jarrod

  • @achilles I mean we saved enough of it... Templar Historians FTW. I mean I think Templars were probably the most functional house in shallam. Our numbers were consistent, we always managed to move people through the path, and there were checks in place to ensure quality as opposed to some houses where it's just hand you whatever. Knighthood you have always had to work for.

    That sounds like a generally boring concept though..im not even sure how it could be played out. "Sir i've made a discovery that molasses is hated by dervish!" "Excellent!"

    It could be basically the counter of the Occultists. Do similar research/experiments/etc. but for the other side.

    That being said, I'm personally absolutely fine with just burning heretics, alternatively! I just don't want another "Let's gather knowledge for the sake of knowledge and not actually do anything!" House - particularly since I'd probably have to join it eventually (since I'm magi).

    Relaxing the class restrictions for Houses would be nice. Though, I'd hate to see it done in a way that results in people ignoring class RP even more. I think there's a good way to do it and a bad way to do it, and it'd have to be done carefully.

    I liked what happened when we added classes slowly like blademaster (Sentaari and Templars were allowed to be them) and we experimented. It's happened a few times across the board the trick is to do it slowly instead of all at once. Anything we do with houses is going to be a process. There are just entirely too many things to plan from novice paths all the way through whatever kind of full membership there is it takes time. Some of it can be done on the fly but any combination of classes is going to get complicated fast.

    Can we have a city already I swear to god if I miss something to the shallam clan one more time because rp clans do not exist im going to break something.

    Yeah...no. I'm actually glad we don't have that shiny new city just yet. 

    Also, SETALIAS CT CLAN REFUGEES TELL works wonders.

    "RP clans do not exist" - High Clans ARE legitimate RP clans.

    High Clan status is reserved for clans that are strictly in-character and add
    to the depth of Achaea's roleplay. These are the current benefits that High
    Clans will receive:

    I'd rather take my time ensuring that the foundations for the new city's RP are solid before I place my foot on a single stone of the city itself.
    I should rephrase what I ment Rp clans do not exist in my clan setup.
    seting an alias for ct won't help me when I Accidently type clt5 instead of clt6 I use all my clans so moving it doesn't help me a bit

    The longer the limbo goes on, the fewer unworthy people will be there for the final, glorious product.  Keep dragging it out, by all means.  The Revs wandered for a pretty damn long time.   

    To be fair, I don't think the Revs wandering around for a long time resulted in only the worthy remaining. The clan basically died out entirely by the time Babel returned. It was just rebuilt afterwards and only the worthy were inducted!
  • Fair enough.  I wasn't saying it was a perfect analogy, rather was just attempting to illustrate the point "good things come to those who wait."  The logic I explained in my first sentence in the above post still applies to ex-Shallam, I think.   
  • It was attempted somewhat and then restrictions were put in place to remove the OMG any classness but unfortunately that concept escapes a lot of people. It's hard when you grow up in guild mindset to change. But it does make things unique.

    I made aliases to have ct ht hw and cw work for the right clans. Haven't mischanned since. And you can move your clans to a line up almost similar to your previous line up before the clean slate happened. Problem solved.

    Ashtan trying to ruin Christmas by defiling as we try to ruin Mhaldor's. Oh, when will the Grinching end.

  • Mhaldorians aren't Christians, can't ruin their Christmas. Guess you'll have to come to Ashtan.
  • There is a science to it, you see. You need to leave it until later in the day to lure them into a false sense of security.
  • And so that all the food and drink makes them mentally inert. True Achaeans fast at Christmas.

    I was just a humble artisanal submitter during the World War Bal'met, and our nation was destroyed.
