I agree with Rabek. Since defaulters probably would be the minority, it would be good if everyone gets it automated, but those who do not wish to can choose not to.

Eh, I'm ambivalent. On one hand I do think RP to get in would be better. On the other hand, I don't see why covert guilds should be so different from others, and the impossibility of purchase might discourage people from going into those. Especially now with there not being any Rubeus or Tenebrae (t...

Thanks, Kin. :) I do personally feel that the current anti-Cellan plots that I know of (although I'm sure that isn't the whole story) are pretty cool, and have been inspiring lots of RP amongst players. I think that is a good thing for a game that has been slowing down a little, and I'm very glad th...

For example, should people who are friendly with me allowed to hold positions on TI, or should they be automatically disqualified from any role simply because they are friends? I don't think so. Should I be allowed to have friends? I definitely think so and don't think my relationship with any give...

Love it.

What does join eavesdrop do though, exactly? If you join should you not already be able to hear what's being said?

I think the Ahalin Tower xblocks should potentially stay, unless imms are ready to be the judge for a lot of policy complaints involving people who just bash/lockpick their way in/out at whim despite the huge volume of VNPC guards that the place is crawling with. Other than that, guild xblocks could...

Yeah, I suggested that in the game forums. :P I don't think AFK people get RPXP anyway? AFK is an icky topic - sometimes it's not foreseeable. So penalizing too heavily would lead to people not even daring to show up in those rooms if they are RPing at work or anything that could lead to them being ...

That could work too, Kin! Not toooo high, of course, perhaps 1.3x or something.

If spreading of players thin is indeed a problem, removal of XBlocks would be a far better idea than guild disbanding, IMO.

I do agree that the game should not be focused around nobles. Especially if we want to seem attractive to newbies, who will most likely not have the xp to make an all-rounded noble character. However, I don't think the solution should be so much reining in nobles, as encouraging freemen to RP. We ce...
