Re: [Poll] Give Us Grit
Editted: My blunt opinion is this: I feel like real life is hard and gritty enough without having to worry about stuff like that on a game that we come to play for fun and to tell interactive stories. We burn people at the stake, have a magical terrorist organization on the loose currently from what...

Re: [Poll] Large Scale Null - Rewrite of IC_Event Post
Voxy, There is no ambiguity about what that note meant. The March was directly under her supervision as the appointed Crown official, and the stated consequences are that she has been removed, which is a severe, unrealistic thing to do unless the blame falls on her. The plain understanding of it is ...

Re: [Poll] Large Scale Null - Rewrite of IC_Event Post
I vote yes. It's not about being "kinder" per se and much more about what is reasonable and better for the role play environment overall because the reasoning as it stands is cut and dry, and it doesn't really allow for any debate or planning or give us anywhere to go other than "Shaylei bad", and t...

Re: More Tolerance for Inactivity
<REDACTED BY STAFF> We are talking about perhaps asking if there can be more leniency going forward with nobility and maybe letting the official story be that Shaylei wasn't just a negligent do nothing that sat on her laurels as it would make any coming back if she ever chose to do so nigh impossibl...

Re: More Tolerance for Inactivity
I've waited a while to post my own feelings about this topic in order to gather my thoughts, and jeez did it blow up. My thoughts flow as follows: 1. What exactly -is- the policy, just so that everybody is crystal clear going forward? My notice for Suni said 4 weeks active in a 6 week rolling period...

Re: [Poll] Enforcing Theme
I like you guys just where you are in terms of thematic enforcing, mostly because more rigidly enforced theme is likely to be problematic. Even with strict guidelines, different staffers are going to enforce the guidelines different ways, and that's just going to make it confusing. Plus, you guys do...

Re: Illness Engine Proposal
Any diseases we do should mimic real-world stuff imo. I'm not going to throw nasty stuff like smallpox out there, but perhaps some interesting little bits would be picking a disease and having it do a natural progression. For example: When the health metric hits a certain percentage, this should tri...

Re: [Poll] Rumors
I don't believe that the rumor system being vicious is the problem. If your char gets their head tore off in the rumor mill, guess what? At least you know where you stand in city where people will be pleasant to your face and stab you in the back the next second. To me, this is entire discussion is ...

Re: Polls Series
Doubtless I would be in the leery of the questions camp, but I would likely answer them honestly. Is playing a lawful character easier than a Mage... It really depends on what you mean by easy. Do those chars tend to feel less risky and make me overall less paranoid? Yes. Do those chars tend to be b...

Retainer Upkeep Costs
Before I begin this, let me say that I whole heartedly support the new cost scheme for upkeep as a general framework. To me it makes great logical sense. However, I cannot help but acknowledge that even with the new compensation scheme I've heard about, I believe that the new costs are simply too on...
