As for the sermon bit... I have no idea what you are trying to describe, is it just reads confusing as all heck. That version of a sermon is a simulation of an IC speech from the priest. Instead of sitting in an actual sermon the priest would construct it in a similar manner as a rumor, it goes pub...

I don't mind the tags at the end of the restock goods. I also think that its a good stimulus for getting involved with the city metrics system and learning how it affects things. Even if the motivation behind voting a certain way is so that you can access certain items is this any different from vot...

So my suggestion is to allow priests to weight in on other people plots for added success chance/level of success/lowered costs etc. In few words, we could look at it as that the priest provides a blessing for that enterprise which makes it better for people carrying out the plot. How much better w...

I think that could be an interesting thing to consider actually, adding some Priestly skills of some kind though I can't ponder off the top of my head what they might be at the moment. It might flesh out the role a bit compared to the other Guilds if the Order did have some Guild restricted skills ...

Lets just be honest, and call a spade a spade. Orderite RP is all over the place, theme is wacky as Arien, the Order is completely broken, and we're seriously struggling to pick up the pieces. Every now and again, someone will pop into the guild for a week or two that helps out, but most times peop...

Ok, I get that. However, I'm guessing that the number of people going to confession currently is quite small. Risk vs reward isn't adding up. You would typically see people confessing with material as they would a hook from pvent. I may not have ever seen a spider before but when the pvent is prompt...

One of the current problems with playing priests is played out on this thread. OOCly, people consider attending such functions boring and a waste of their time and will freely say so. That confession is a risk (true) and well ... speaking to someone might not be able to help, so why bother. I'm not...

But what I would love this idea for is a machine fueling the heretical religions. Now that I would absolutely love, and very much in the shape you've presented (although without atheism and with religion-accurate commands), because that would put sense and purpose behind playing such characters, wh...

The point I'm trying to get at, is that it is unlikely commands will be given to the order that result in tangible ic benefits, because that would go against "LoS is a very distant god who doesn't interfere in the lives of his believers." The benefits wouldn’t be coming from LOS as it would in any ...

I simply disagree that the way to do it is by forcing people to roleplay with priests because this is a game to be enjoyed, and not a work to grind metrics. What they need instead is a redesign so they can provide interesting, unique RP avenues, so people will want to play with them, not be forced ...
