Just a few quick notes about this OOC Chat as there was a lot of ground covered: 1) I've reviewed this log and have updated Staff Talking Points: -- Track cover isn't working -- We are waiting for more commentary on the Track forum post before making decisions, but acknowledge several good points ra...

With regards to plague's query - I would probably refund the skill if we settle on it being the way it is. The bug fix was a quick solution to something we'd thought was overlooked, not an attempt to nerf knights hunting mages, for example. That said, if it's useless as a wilderness skill and is rea...

Greetings, We put in the invitation command as another way to foster RP in a world without OOC Channels. It'd been sitting in our bug queue for months. Recently we've had some feedback that some people like it, some people don't like it, etc. One of the more interesting bits of feedback is that it s...

We primarily announce all changes in the MOTD, and we always have.

I agree the roster suggestion is a good one.

No... I miswrote that

How much power for change in the hands of players are you thinking of allowing? Well, if someone has a role, I'd expect their power to reflect that role ICly. I wasn't thinking the queen would become a PC, but would remain the NPC failsafe above the Seneschal, but otherwise out of the picture, leav...

Hiring new staff isn't as easy as it sounds and even when you do hire staff, getting consistent and heavily interested plot staff has been very difficult. I'm not convinced building more systems is the answer for a few reasons, but personally I'd like to imagine that the most superior form of "simul...
