Re: Legalizing gay marriage

Plague, thank you for saying what you did about RPing racism in TI. When I was led to the pyre I was gagged, but that was because rather than surrender himself to the pyre, Percy argued with the Inquisitors and accused them of immorality, blaming Davism for the events that led to his arrest and for ...

Re: Legalizing gay marriage

Hello! As a fellow member of the alphabet mafia I feel obliged to chime in here and defend a few things. I want to make clear that none of this actually negates the idea that Lithmore's stance should change but this post pretty directly cites recent IC events and also makes some big claims about oth...

Re: 10 Tips For Newbies (from a newbie)

Great idea. Not a newbie now, but these are things I wish I learned two years ago. Minor comments on Julea's tips: 1. The room you can use directory in is actually, ' Entrance to the Merchants' Guildhall.' I usually travel to it with trav ts' g from crossroads. 2. There is a third chest with free st...

Re: "Things to Do" but for money-making?

It's been a bit since I had to make one, but pretty sure you can create an asset with whatever metric you want. Just tested it and I was able to make an economics asset. Are you guys talking about the asset marketplace instead? Those are assets people decided to sell or went inactive with sold at a ...

Also, specifically regarding the attacked by wild animals thing, remember to use clumps of scent or other IC means to dissuade them!

Re: "Things to Do" but for money-making?

Hi! I don't have an answer to all of this (like the question of how much starter silver a char should have is probably a staff/OOC chat discussion). n = 1, but as a player who's been around the block a few times. Her are my general money tips. 1. Purchasing from PCs is almost always 2-5x cheaper tha...

Re: A Guide to Stringing/Coloring

Part II - Color Codes TI has gone through a bit of a color renaissance in the last few years, transitioning from 16 standard ASCI colors to 41 additional xterm colors, and now to a full 256 color gradient. With the disclaimer that I'm still learning and growing myself, here are a few tips and trick...

A Guide to Stringing/Coloring

Hi friends! It’s been some time since we had our last stringing guide. I thought I would provide some of my own tips and tricks. Part 1 - Writing Strings In TI moreso than other MUDs, players tend towards using strings exactly 59 characters in length. This was not a coded affair, merely player cultu...

Re: [Poll] Alternative to seeking?

I have to ask if we're focusing on the right issue here. I do think there are serious issues with rank stagnation in TI and I understand players are looking for new QP/RPXP sinks, but I would personally rather see a system that automates guild promotions than a way to pay for ranks. It seems to me t...

Re: Jail Channel

Also @Philly, (Portion removed by Staff for forum policy violation) I also feel like a lot of people here ASSUME passive aggression when they really should assume good intent. Sometimes, I get people being angry at me for supposed passive aggression, but text isn't always that easy to read emotions...
