Re: More Tolerance for Inactivity

I'll sidestep the "personal attacks" aspect, though I'll note solely that the more someone complains about this game, the less I listen to them. Besides, others already commented, and I'm brushing up on some Korean for a trip to Seoul. Thus, I'll limit my comment to something Kinaed said. Apparently...

Re: More Tolerance for Inactivity

Yeah, I'll echo what everyone's said so far. By the way, I'm posting this from a sleepy port town in China, and I wouldn't be online at all save for the grace of T-Mobile. My main point is this: TI adheres to "the rules" without fail, even when some human consideration would be nice. You'll notice t...

Re: Community |OT| Sixteen Seasons and a Straight-to-DVD Movie

So... what is this "PC regent" thing that doesn't hold water, and what are the reasons, and close enough to what? It looks like quite a few people focused on that comment, and I have to admit - it went over my head as to what that was about... As for the other bits, I'm still interested in what pla...

Re: Community |OT| Sixteen Seasons and a Straight-to-DVD Movie

I have very little interest in OOCly interacting with the entire pbase on a regular basis, largely because I'm an antisocial, elitist, curmudgeonly sort of hermit, but I do see the need for a healthy community, even if I don't make myself a part of the usual banter. As others have suggested, one of...

Re: Community |OT| Sixteen Seasons and a Straight-to-DVD Movie

The "PC regent" argument doesn't hold much water, for reasons we both know: it's "close enough." I'm afraid that I don't understand this at all? I've only ever had two times where staff handed down a decision to me on something and that was on the subject of lockpicking because they wanted to reinf...

Re: Community |OT| Sixteen Seasons and a Straight-to-DVD Movie

Oo, interesting thread - thanks for starting it, Lando! I suppose that, since you chimed in, we can open the thread up to everyone now. :lol: 1. Tired of sticking your neck out - I'm sure this is some of the case, but honestly, this could just be due to how long you've been on TI. I took a course o...

Re: Community |OT| Sixteen Seasons and a Straight-to-DVD Movie

One thing that has drawn me, personally, into the Inquisition: Legacy has been how gratifying others have been to accomodate that fairly niché role that I love: the anti-hero kind-of-jerkish hates-the-system Chaotic Good sort that ultimately gets under the skin of many, throws some level of power a...

Community |OT| Sixteen Seasons and a Straight-to-DVD Movie

So, TI's had longer than six seasons -- something like sixteen+ now, I'd imagine, and it's gone through various showrunners. At this point, I'm going to ask (literally) boldly: what keeps us here? I alluded in my post on the General board that it was community, because none of us, over the course of...

Re: Revised Physicians Ranks

I'm always a fan of condensing ranks to the equivalent of "trainee," "adept," and "master" -- so I completely support this rewrite. As far as the subranks go, I think it's sound to divide people into specialties (with the tacit understanding, naturally, that a Physician [Midwife] is probably equippe...

Re: Community Standards Discussion

Just a quick comment: My whole comment regarding skipping someone after 5 minutes is purely to avoid hold-ups with someone being afk or utterly disinterested. If you're in the middle of writing an emote, and you type "turns time" or something, then you'd get another 5 minutes or something. I'm not e...
