Re: A Matter of the Patriarchy
If there has to be one, it should be NPC. The Order goes through people at a ridiculous rate. Cardinals are already big deals and they go through them like candy. An actual Patriarch wouldn't last. And finding players for GL Positions with the small player base, as someone else said, would be diffic...

Re: Swim, Armour and Weight
Being above a certain weight or heavy armor should be determent to swim - increasing the number of MV required or something. There shouldn't be a way to auto NOT enter a room with water in it. It's not fair for someone who is wearing something that would make it MORE DANGEROUS for them to not be abl...

Re: Balance: Knights vs Mages
I'd say turn it off until (if) it becomes a problem. I struggled as a GL to use the Order's wealth as well. I had ideas for its use (different things we could add to the game) but didn't have the time to be able to make those things myself and no one really got interested in creating any of those th...

Re: Balance: Knights vs Mages
[quote]And really, the proof of the pudding is in the tasting. If the Knights/Reeves are disadvantaged, why are they pretty much the only ones not dying to PK? /quote] I'd say RP culture has a lot to do with it. There obviously used to be some mages who went after people, before I started playing on...

Re: Bad Guy Incentives
There's nothing they can do about making it fun to be bad (or good, for that matter). There are lots of options available; it's up to people to take them. Being bad is 'fun while it lasts' - that isn't going to change. If that's not fun enough for people, they should probably choose a different char...

Re: Resurrection
Most of my examples were thief/baddie examples and not mage examples, Geras, because I'm not familiar with the mage system. The remark about mages not attacking people had to do with IC politics (the mantra of several Mage leaders has been no harm to civvies) being against such things, not that mage...

Re: Resurrection
Then this is a matter for the magic revamp thread. I've never played a mage on any incarnation, so I can't really comment on the current spell limitations. But resurrection isn't the answer. I'm not willing to budge that some of this isn't due to a combination of lazy RP AND a combination of current...

Re: Resurrection
There are *plenty* of theme reasons to be afraid of mages. We've had towns burn down, we've had revenants attacking citizens, we've had mages go after characters (harassing them, killing them, etc.). I haven't seen it so much on this incarnation so don't know if options like changing the weather or ...

Re: Commentary: Julea's Pkill
If you want specific ideas about a new command (Pause or anything else) it might be a good idea to move to a new thread. Some people aren't going to read this thread (for various reasons, due to the nature of it and the title) so won't see it otherwise. It's also going to get lost in whatever else i...

Re: PK Debriefing?
Players -should- be able to do those things. It's a great ideal. But I think it's fairly obvious that a segment of the player base doesn't feel things are quite to that ideal yet (or else you'd have more baddies with blogs). I personally have OOC relationships like that with some players and not wit...
