  1. Since spring is here, i thought at a new season contest.
    This contest is dedicated to ... Bob, the tree :D

    Here is what you need to do..really simple:
    take a tree (any kind of tree) and plant it in your garden, or near where you live. (You can add some flowers near)
    Take photos of you planting the tree or film yourself, add MD sign on it and ''for Bob, the tree ''. You could even name your newborn tree.

    I am sure Bob will be very happy and think at all the trees planted by you when he is blooming.

    As for the rewards... i will update hopefuly soon, with them.

    Hope you will have fun. :D

  2. Fun gallery removed with all the pics inside.
    Also some of your pics got removed from other albums if they were not related to the game or fantasy or taken from the internet .

    Do not upload anymore prints not related to or from the game, nor random pics from the internet/fantasy please, it will be removed.
    Forum gallery is a feature for personal photos, not a collection of internet pics.

    Thank you.

  3. Artworks yes, but , fun things like what you can find in the fun gallery no..the internet is full of them, spammers always send them and i guess there is no room fr it here, i was just reminding the ones that have them to save what they don't keep on pc because will be deleted..

    Forum bandwidth and storage space is limited. Filling it up with random gallery images is something i want to avoid. I will start to remove images that i consider pointless. Sorry if i will destroy your personal fun pic collection or your beloved screenshots from other games, i am sure they have perfect meaning for you but they are simply to much. The forum gallery was supposed to have pictured, like in real pictures done by you, about you, with you and your friends, or related to MD in the md section. Other images, such as screenshots, funny pics, random nonsense uploads and others of similar nature will be removed to avoid a forum space upgrade that is realy not required but forum is pushed in that direction because of these. Please save your pictures if the forum is the only place were you hold them. Thanks for understanding.[/quote]

    Please save your pictures and do not add more pictures that enter that cathegory.
    There are some opened albums on personal galery that have been there for ages and no pics inside, use them or delete them.

    Pictures are to be uploaded in the right album, or else will be deleted, no more warnings nor announcements.
    If your pics are screens from the game or have something from the game use game related people! Also, if not sure where you should put your pic, take a look in the albums and see what kind of pics are in there.

  5. This is a topic that should be in MD Court forums, please use the appropiate forums when you post something, stop using general stuff like a desk and we admins and mods the sorters. If you (all of you who do this) will continue and post without looking at the forums and read at least what they are about, (considering MD Court title is not a suggestive one...) measures will start to be taken.


    Topic moved to MD Court forums in Lawyer's Office, Cutler, please read what this forum is about and read what general stuff is about.

    [font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"] [color="#800000"][size="4"][b]Words and Shapes[/b][/size][/color][/font]




    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"]Our human mind limits the words to definitions.
    We forget the shapes build upon words.
    We limited our believes, our range of imaginations and we started to give a specific sense to each word; it is like we blind ourselves with the words.[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] Today I had a wonderful talk with Awii about his revelation regarding shapes. YES! We are surrounded by shapes build out of words.[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] He is the only one that came to me to speak about a real location and a logic explanation of Book of Principles. He used the words to shape the location. One step is done. That does not mean he found it, just that he learned to search the true meaning.[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] It is like the numerous actions and theories about Land Weapons. SEE? The word you define blinds you. You have 2 words: land and weapons.
    You define land as one of the current territories, which is correct;[/size][/font][/color]

    [font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"][color="#800000"]You define weapons as something to help you hurt someone/something; to attack, which is [/color][color="#800000"][u]wrong[/u][/color][color="#800000"]![/color][/size][/font]



    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] Take a look in your inventory. What do you have there defined as a weapon?[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] Yes! You have cloths, used as a weapon against cold, sun, wind. What else?
    You have weapons to attack: swords, axes, daggers, knifes, etc; also you may find other meaning for those and other items, like shields to protect yourself .[/size][/font][/color]



    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] So, a weapon is also used to protect yourself or something. The first impact the word gives us is as a weapon to attack, to damage something. We, as humans forget to think, we blind ourselves and leave the beast that lies down in us to act![/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] Yes, the beast! The only thing that separates us from animals is our brain and the power to think more and abstain, calm our beast. [/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] A land weapon is, in my definition and findings a weapon that protects the land. From what? Take a look at our Earth ! It is an organism filled with us, the parasites. Sometimes the people represent the danger. We are the ones to start the wars, we are the ones to take benefit of nature givings without giving something back, in return.[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] So, yes. Land weapons are not a great dystoring weapon that you can use in war to activate it and use it at your own desire and on who you would like.[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] Think at them as an organism, as a part of the body, the Land. They are mechanic and spiritual. Like us. We have the body, that works as a mechanism, a machine; and the spirit, the soul that fills the body, animates the machine.[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] Your greed in finding how it works and use it blinds you from actual seeing things clear. To activate something and use it, you first need to understand the working. To control something you need to own it, or to know it's mechanics.[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] While listening ideas and opinions I stumble upon this ''I'', I can, I will''.[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] Why ''I''? What made you think it is an I and not a We? What is the reason for this I? Human feelings, that want you to be the only one? The need of power? Control? That is/are the reasons why you can't find it, you can't see it. It is not you.[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] I find it amusing when I see people searching for a place in Marind Bell, from where the weapon can be activated.[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] Again, the power of words and shapes. What do we know about Marind Bell;s weapon? We only know that it is the only land that can close; that has a gate to protect it. I say that there are too many clues about it but written in words and not shapes.[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] Another weapon that I find interesting, is one that I saw reacting when fed. How, what is does is part of what makes it interesting and I would like to test more on this subject, but I guess it is not the time for it.[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] The other one needs human sacrifice when you simply follow the mechanics of activating it, not to speak about the spiritual part, the other magic that you are so interested in.[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] Spirals, Spheres, Circles, all are words that define shapes. Start at the meaning of words and put them in shapes. You will see more of this world. Just like Mirrors... same shapes, or reflections of some shapes.[/size][/font][/color]

    [color="#800000"][font="Monotype Corsiva, cursive"][size="3"] Pyramids, books and cubes, tunnels and lost past. Everything is there and I will try, one finding it to reveal to those that can read and listen to it, be it enemy or friend, information that is given to public is full of meaning and you can learn a lot from it; but, as in any other craft, you need to '''steal'' how to from your teacher, not to copy his/her steps or else you will hit a wall of blindness.[/size][/font][/color]

  7. Trial eneded.

    [quote][left][color="#8b0000"][b][size="3"]Final Decision or Punishment [/size][/b][/color][/left]
    [b]Good factors (one):[/b]
    Admited before judgement: Yes
    Fixed situation in time: -
    Special Factor: Considers he did it on purpose to set an example

    [b]Bad factors (one):[/b]
    Refuse to cooperate: -
    Recidivist in same crime: -
    Additional crime: yes (used for confirmation CTC not of his own)
    Special Factor: First case to reach a trial regarding item fraud, punishment higher.

    [b]PUNISHMENT[/b]

    [b]- 500 attack
    [/b][b]- 500 defence
    - Confiscated oldest creature, premium, ID:63369 [/b][b]
    - Trade embargo for one month untill 27 march 10. Any player trading with him will get punished, him too.
    - 1 week prison, untill 6 March 10.[/b]

    [b]Confiscated goods (drach and item)[/b]. Drach will be given back by CTC if requested by owner, to suffer age penalty cost for giving out the ctc of a personal creature to someone else. Item will be restored to JacoAnd.[/quote]
    [color="#8b0000"]
    Trial closed.[/color]

  8. That's a very good idea Awii.

    You can't remove the market section from the forum; it is part of the market and you can't have those auctions in the place you will chose.
    Indeed, having a day for traders with music, dancing and all sort of things is nice.
    If it will be in NML you will stay in the way of some non-traders ppl or it will be too common.
    Who is lazy to come to the traders day, will loose the tradings..i say that they will come.

    Jester streets..are the streets of Jester, i guess you should choose a/some streets that do not have a personal connection with someone, or else you may end up paying tax for that day.

    and again, no rush in this, and those lands have more to come.

  9. I guess if you look closer to some locations from Lands of the East you could actually find some good locations for a market. Your image fits some of those locations.
    Lands of the east are made in a much social way... plus, they are not all released.

    Also, I think you all should fill what we have atm, which is way enough for the amount of population and social activities and after that come with suggestion of 'we need more'.

    [b]The Judge[/b]
    I am inagurating a COURT. At first it will be run by me, Muratus del Mur, as one judge to decide and take action. As this court will evolve and i will understand more of what judging type the realm needs it will be passed on to others to manage or will be adapted to fit the realm needs. My first rules for this court are these:


    1) Trials can be initiated only by people directly involved in the situation that are suitable to suffer the decision of the trial.
    2) Both sides will be heared both in private sessions and public ones the same number of times. Contacting me outside the decided session times is not allowed.
    3) Each trial should have in its start a very clear concept of what it is disputed or demanded and what the requests of each side are.
    4) Secret trials are not an option for now but could be an option if the discussed matters are of secret nature. I will be the one to decide that.
    5) I can deny the start of a trial if i consider that there might by other ways to solve the issue
    6) Trials involving groups of people should have same number of participants on both sides. In the situation as a single person accuses a group of people such as a organization, that person will have to get on its side more witnesses or people supporting his cause. This obviously gives more power to groups of people over single individuals because the punishments affecting groups are more important.
    7) Proof and arguments should be given only when asked, any proof comming outside the time when its asked will be ignored.
    8) The decisions of the trials are permanent and effective immediatly, both side must agree in the beginning of the trial that they will obey any decision resulting from the trial regardless how unfair they will consider it at the end.
    9) Refusing to obey trial decisions will result in severe punishments

    What types of things can be brought to trial?
    From personal argues between players to more important situations. Creature theft, abuse, rule breaking, anything. Only important issues will be allowed to get to trial because my time is limited. At each trial i can select a group of people to vote, the selection will be as neutral as i can and i will not listen to your suggestions for the jury. I will try to select each time different people so that there wont be a "jury" profession.

    I am making this to bring order not to scare or punish any of you, hopefuly this will turn into a flexible moderation system and not into an inquisition. My words here and now should remain as a guidence of what this was ment to be for later times when power will be tempting for the future judges. Where is power there is corruption.[/quote]

    That is what court will mean in MD, so before making plans and groups, better take a look at what it is in the announcements.

  11. The last backup i saw in the interface was from october last year, I had no time to make a new one, since someone was messing with my account ...
    Hope he has indeed a recent one, or else hope the users still have some copies of the entries.

  12. The current quest (I like to call it a quest)/ story from the AL it is, indeed way back then the actual date of events. At that time, I needed some specific persons from MD to help in the quest.
    They were involved in some activities that were, somehow bound to the quest in progres. The story still exists, I still have the logs, the history can still be written, even if it involves some of our veterans that were ''lost on front''.

    At that time, Awii, Handy P. , Guy and some others were not veterans; this is a point you all seem to forgot.

    It is more to tell in that story, then you can imagine.
    I like it when you cry and rant about not having AL, nor history, nor informations; but when they come , you need to find another reasn just to complain.
    Lately i think that some of you log in this world simply to find something to complain/rant about...maybe it is what surrounds you outside that makes you rant at everything.

    PS: you is used as you in general

  13. Err..what is the problem if someone buys items to collect them? His role is a collector then...

    You guyz simply run out of rant topics? O.o
    I should call out the common sence of you..this is a game. If he wats to buy items and he buys them he can do so..WHO are you to decide or to question what he does with his money and items payed in MD? Does he has something you want really really bad? then scratch your face in silent and try to buy it, but stop the random rant and go have a calming tea ...

    I suppose very soon you guyz will make a topic spaming the forum with RANT about avatars from alts and rare creatures .

    PS: this is not a rant or a post that needs a reply, it is simply what i think about you all the ranetrs out there.
    I am sure nothing will change regarding Shape Shifter as he is not doing something against any rule so have fun continuing to rant at things that you desire or not

  14. Dst, i would add to that the big secret things that some players like to have, the separation from the game thru ym and other forums. That is what is killing new players. If you are not 'profi' you can't simply stay in the game; So all of you profi rp should stop ranting and look at yourself. Md is not an exclusiv rp game, nor one to fight and get stats and stats but one that mixes both.
    Atm it is like in high school..groups that are outside of MD at first and where the plans are made and come to 'enlighten' the other ppl from the realm about what is hapening.
    Also the paranoia around you, introduced from several players is ruing you, the players that curently rant.
    Ranting is a problem..ppl ! stop living in what you dont have and what you would like, start living in what you have and build upon what it is something. Stop living in nothing is worth nor good and maybe light may come.

    PS: did someone noticed that rants come from ''profi' rp;s? or their group? .. what can i say..in the end that profi rp ends...leaves nothing to do more and it simply end...it limits you

  15. The adventure log does not work like that.
    Random stories are not for AL, especially ones that contain at least 1 real character and fiction...that is part of why the lore got stopped, and that is how the fiction lore appeared.

    The problem, as it was stated in his post, is that he has no time, not no story.
    I think that the people who tried so bad to enter the AL and sent stories or suggestions can tell you that what they sent was never used.


    All in all, exactly because of what you just asked/done is why he said that players can't write the AL, and do remember : it is not the story missing, but the time.
