Came back today. Saw a couple old friends. Was super disappointed that my approved idea from two years ago still wasn't implemented. Then realized I was still ranger and had mixed emotions. Then realized Achaea had sucked me back in and I was about to lose thousands more hours of my life, and didn't care in the slightest.
I at least had some carryover experience in shopkeeping from Lusternia where aethershops are very safe to stock. So I've never had to stand in the stockroom for any length of time.
Kyra taught me a lot about shop keeping since I always ran into her (or flew into her really) while she was getting all her stuffed organised for stocking her shop. It's pretty much solely because of her that I developed the habit of doing everything in notepad first and then just coping it over.
As a result, everything from my shop policies to bin names and other things are super organised and pretty easy to change later on if needed.
(D.M.A.): Cooper says, "Kyrra is either the most innocent person in the world, or the girl who uses the most innuendo seemingly unintentionally but really on purpose."
Got all of my stock robbed for the first time on any character ever
The number of times I used veilglance and saw you in a house with 1000's of minerals and inks on the floor.. By the time I updated my get all script to prism to you, you'd moved into the subs. I swore so loud I woke the cat!

Heh heh - yeah I know it was totally my own fault. Next time it'll be all done in hands on a guard stack
He is a coward who has to bring two friends as backup to jump people hunting.
On an my old Naga made 1.2million in round an hour just by getting into stockrooms using a prism. Fails more times than not but you only need it to work once in a while to be worth it
Irregular stocking times (new shop owners make the mistake of being over enthusiastic about their shop stocking. Don't be. Shit will sell when it sells and you needn't worry about any of it until it sells out)
Never do anything in the stockroom. Ever. Even if a God comes and asks you for something, you settle your stockroom before answering.

Thanks for the advice Skye

A God even had the patience to wait until I was out of the stockroom before scaring the bajeebus out of me. (@Deucalion, I'm looking at you!)
I had to double back in my buffer to see if I went it in while He was standing there because when I emerged from the dark, musty stockroom of enchantment He was right there. RIGHT THERE.
But, yes. All excellent advice, @Xaden. I'm just glad they took it out of your house, not the stockroom itself. Would've had to yell and hurt you.
@Kasya Shu'in, the Ivory Apostle (female Mhun). She is 41 years old, having been born on the 20th of Glacian, 662 years after the fall of the Seleucarian Empire. She has given up the adventuring life.
You shout, "No."
Character retirement is stupid and I hate it. :frown:

I agree, at least the old souls in a new body RP it out. What we're getting is supernoobs starting out talking like they are 300 years old, carrying the same memory as they were. I don't really like that.

The majority of our supernoobs is really awesome, really have to agree with @Quisse there. I guess most of the old people who hold the noobs to that high standard also remember their own first steps in Achaea well, with a load of great roleplayers there, making it easy to step into the role and become a good player. Maybe it's really also a matter of investing time and love again... something that many people didn't really have to do without a huge influx of "real" newbies.
I kinda like the term "supernoob." Makes me feel like Batman's sidekick.
Give us -real- shop logs! Not another misinterpretation of features we ask for, turned into something that either doesn't help at all, or doesn't remotely resemble what we wanted to begin with.
Thanks!
Current position of some of the playerbase, instead of expressing a desire to fix problems:
Vhaynna: "Honest question - if you don't like Achaea or the current admin, why do you even bother playing?"
Talked about House things with my new protege, hung out with my crazy family, talked about wedding things with @Navarr, attended a Senate meeting, aaaaand (this was a first, I think, for any character I've ever had) politely rebuffed a Mhaldor conversion attempt by @Kiet (thank you, that was hysterical).
I just woke up (RL) from a dream that the path from Hashan to the elementary school went through my living room, so tons of kids were autowalking through my house. I called a meeting to get their parents to teach them new paths, but it turned into a brainstorming meeting for all of the artists across IRE to kickstart a character t-shirt line. I sighed, pledged to buy 2 shirts and grumbled about having to make a news post. And then woke up.
You have warned me not to kill your precious Father Garron.
I haven't, for now. In fact, I figured our differences came from him not understanding our Theology. So I taught him a little bit about suffering.
Also, attached is a present for you.

Partied with some Hashani along with @Adrenn, @Piera, and @Telendrieth. Always good to meet people outside the city, which I don't do nearly often enough. Earlier I chatted a bit with the folk gathered at the temple of @Lorielan, too. Need to do that again some time.

Needless to say - I will not be making that mistake again!
