Re: Whoinvis Discussion General /WDG/

What do you mean by "we have been leaning"? You mean in this discussion on the change or the change itself? Because I do feel that way, but in the sense that the change is leaning towards creating that toxic expectation, at least from a criminal standpoint and or from a lawful character in active p...

Re: Whoinvis Discussion General /WDG/

I find it remarkable that people are arguing so strongly for metagaming on an RP enforced game. The who list is metagaming, flat out. It's knowing OOC things for your IC benefit. People don't have to use that information to hunt down and kill people for it to be metagaming. Looking at the who list,...

Re: Whoinvis Discussion General /WDG/

Because the benefit of OOC information is nice. It saves me an absurd amount of struggle and wasted time finding people I want to RP with. But, it goes both ways. You're not going to tell me, as a covert character, you don't abuse who. Thieves are going to do things when there aren't Reeves online,...

Re: Whoinvis Discussion General /WDG/

Actually, you can gain whoinvis time by doing covert activities. Eavesdropping on hide/invis still earns you whoinvis time. Sense you did the same towards my point, I'm going to have to point out that you are not explaining why you need use on WHO if not for the benefit of the OOC information? Some...

Re: Whoinvis Discussion General /WDG/

To Famine: While an IC way to know that someone is on the grid would be great, we can consider that the who list is just that: some NPC spotted X somewhere recently. And if I remember correctly, even you wrote some time ago you were hoping to see more people in public streets with whererp on. And, ...

Re: Whoinvis Discussion General /WDG/

Late to the game here. Been super casual as of lately. Well hrrm, this kills all my characters. I always live in Whoinvis for the simple reason so many players use OOC who ICC'ly. I really don't see the reason why anyone needs to know I'm on except the staff. It does not impact the gameplay negativ...

Re: Things to Do that Aren't RP

I guess this might be partly my doing here. I really think systems that encourage RP that is not directly tied to RP where I can do it solo and not in a guild sounds awesome. Not so much to being an alternative to RP, but to ignite it. Trade Routes Automating trade routes through NPC caravans may be...
