Re: Guildskills

To my knowledge, the Merchants, Troubs & Physicians - These are the actual guild guilds that would have the sort of protective charter that Amdair is talking about. Nobles, Reeves, Order, Knights & Scholars - Not even guilds as such, but certainly Crown sponsored organisations that have their rights...

Re: Guild Goals

To go along with this, I'd like to see a few skills added to use for automatic tests in generating resources. For now, I'll call it 'Stewardship', which would be used for noble lands generating basic goods, and perhaps also influence the amount of money that nobles receive from their lands. It could...

Re: Policy Twink File for Review/Question/Comment

I'm not keen on the dunce cap either, sorry Kin! :) Pretty much agree with Lei's comments on it. Keep it to punishments, not to something that is going to ostracise the player and have them mocked. I wouldn't want to play at all if that happened to me (although maybe if I was getting my twink on, th...

Re: Guildskills

I'm in agreement with getting rid of guildskills, with the exception of tcant and limiting Daravi and Eld (for non mages) to QP purchase only (since the former is heretical and the latter is.. well, I don't know wtf it is IC.) As a game, I'm not keen on limiting skills, although I see that as an IC ...

Re: Skills on creation

Agreed that it is troublesome to implement now given that there are already a large number of power characters already exist in game. However, I think it needs to be arrested sooner than later. As it is, the currently uber characters will slowly fall to attrition/each other, as characters always do ...

Re: Policy Twink File for Review/Question/Comment

Perhaps these certain uber-public rooms could be flagged as such, and if a spell is cast or an attack is made there, it automatically posts to the ic_event board (may be too spammy, for ex, if someone dumps 80 spells in a row), or mail autosent to the law guilds with the short/cloak desc of the perp...

Re: Guild Goals

Hmm. I missed this when it was first posted, probably because it was sticky, and I have a mental blank for that part of the board. :P Overall, I think this would be good. The best thing about the Royal Council was the interconnectedness with it all, it was a complex web of wants, needs and resources...
