Re: Seneschal Directly Ousting GLs — Why This Can Be Good

@Rothgar: I had exactly the same thoughts--this kind of echoes of much OOCness here, or at a minimum a very, and I do mean very, minimal amount of RP. I mean it takes more effort than that to temporarily boost a city metric, and that's arguably a whole lot less consequencial than this. I'm usually p...

Re: Seneschal Directly Ousting GLs — Why This Can Be Good

I'd like to see the system not so much dependent on the targeted GL's approval, which seems to fluctuate daily even if the level of support doesn't appear to, but definitely require it be an IP action, a la noble projects, blacklisting, etc. If the seneschal wants to oust a GL, that should be his/he...

Re: Finding RP Helpfile

There are all kinds of commands in-game to tell you who the important or semi-important people are in the game. City council, guildleaders, guildlist <preferred guild> if you have one, things like that. It's called The Inquisition, for crying out loud, but how many new people who show up right out o...

Re: Death XP and New Players

As one of those older players, I disagree. My first character on TI I didn't even know which skill(s) I'd possibly need, much less what else I could spend XP on. I remember seeing the 50k XP just for signing up and actually asking myself if I'd inadvertently tripped something. If assets had existed ...

Re: Death XP and New Players

As one of those older players who's recently returned, though not one who's been around long enough to amass 45 bazillion XP, I'm in full agreement with Kinaed. When I played before, the asset system didn't exist. Granted I also never used purchase silver, and at the time roster assets were free (pe...

Re: RPXP Bonus for Emote Speed

I've limited my availability significantly insofar as TI is concerned after this change. If I can't guarantee I can pay attention should RP find me, I don't log in. This means I'm logged in significantly less from work (I logged in once, briefly, at like 3:00 AM system time this morning), and haven'...

Re: Players Avoiding RP

But I also don't think that dropping RPXP down a bit in these situations is a problem, or sending a message that this kind of RP is unacceptable. Rather, I feel like these messages would be a "This isn't how the Staff generally want RP scenes to go. If you're okay with that, fine, but be conscienti...

Re: Players Avoiding RP

Making somebody wait 15+ minutes for an emote because you aren't paying attention is what's bad. This is, I believe, context dependent. Again, an example I was perfectly fine with--RPing with someone who was doing this while she was working on a paper for university. The expectation was set that sh...
