Fenrir, it is BAD to ask people to find bugs, report them to you for a creature and after you had fun with the bugs come like a saint to Mur and explain the bug. If you pass over a bug, this should be immediately reported and not shared with others and get profit over it. It is against the rules and could get you banned. How you report a bug? Send a mail to manu@magicduel.com with full description of that bug. [b]PS[/b] : your reasons sound like : 'You know, i did not payed my taxes in order to fully explore the effects on the society and improve the system -> so no reason for me to go to jail'

I was thinking of having an ad-hoc meeting in Bucharest today at 7:30 pm in Piranha . To keep my evil reputation up, we will stay at the non-smokers balcony, so dress well in case you want a 'fresh air' smoke . Subjects to debate: undisclosed Who is attending? Me Mur dst No One

As I said, there is not an exact number of poems requested and when that number is filled it is ended. The poems will be implemented later, as promised; until then I hope to gather more .

Z took a shovel and a bag and managed to get the little snow you see there

Are there any other people that are trying and willing to make a snowman ? I will close the contest soon, but i will wait for you first.

Aw, that's a lovely frozed tomato ..man

Yes, it is that time of year, with a lot of snow that makes me think of SNOWMAN I want you all (that, of course have some snow in the garden, if not find a snow - replacement ) to make a MD snowman style and take some pictures of it/him/her and make it famous [img]http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/public/style_emoticons//cool.gif[/img] everyone that will participate will get something ; prizes are secret (if only this makes you participate, then consider there is none ) PS: post the picture with you near your snowman work, or if you don't want to be in the picture, make a BIG MD on the snowman or something that will show it is original and not a picture taken from the internet. Thank you [size="1"] LE : i will delete posts wuth questions after answered just to keep this topic clear.[/size]

Sample avatar work will be sent at[b] art at magicduel.com[/b], please.

About the calendar... In the last month Awii sent to me, we spoke about including the AL events / dates, make it with a MD feeling not only outside. The AL was supposed to be the official one, wrote by Mur... The Order will take this task and make a list of the AL events for the calendar, will be submitted to me ..so whoever has any ideas regarding this subject or similar/ magic events please, i wait your pm's, thank you. Also, we should all start using the md-archives, it is a site dedicated to all of us , not for the archivies ally only , but to archive our achievements.

Who can update and approve the articles- site managers (alphabetical, how i find them in the admin interface ) : Me , Chew, Inno , Mur, Rendril, Tarquinus,

Yes, again, why DEDICATE an award to someone that did something that did not lasted at least 1 year ? something that vanished with the player identity ? And vanished at the beginning of this year, not the ending ..at least so you can say 'this year' Outstanding work is osmething that lasts for more then 1 year, and in it's original form...but i might be wrong at this..as my standards are very exigent

Hmm...i know a lot of subjects that the MDNP omitted...you can't tell me that you stooped working on the MDNP because there is nothing important of your time, mister to write about it...a newspaper, with true journalists [u]always [/u] finds something interesting to write about. I attack since i see the MDNP that is your job to keep it up-to-date and monthly not being so, because i see you wanting something thou you can't accomplish those things, but you desire to... And the people who leave because of true facts...are welcome from my part to do so..if they are here because of the drama and to take part of the drama, what can i say.. there is the emo songs and sites It is not about leadership but mostly about what have you done, how active you are, how dedicated you can be, and how much you like what you do, not what title you can get. The one jumping around like chickens, to me, are not the ones that done things and admitted they are not able to accomplish what it is requested from them, because they have some other things to do, or simply because there is not enough time for it. The paper .. i always saw the paper an independent one..not bound to an ally/land/friend..anything...because then we would have the subjectivity and objectivity , but when a human is implied, indeed you can't expect neutrality . I think that you can be active on the issue for 2 days, beginning of the month or the end of it and then leave it to the others. It is easy, indeed to give orders and wait for things to happen. Again, i am like this, angry on you, because of what a wonderful paper could have been, if you would have been active and had the reporters spread all over MD watching interesting subjects...(I don't mean the pregnancy stupidity that you are about to write an article about)

before anything else : you failed in keeping an up-to-date newspaper... what would change that? Logging in everyday to keep the active days and idle? Entering from time to time on forum or in game and trying to catch up ? I am sorry but i find this revolting... the only one who made the archivist job and master archivist job is Awii and i think we all agree on this.. at least because of him we had calendar, memories and man other things .. not because of the others. (and i am speaking about present, not things from 1-2 years ago. )

[quote name='Gargant' date='02 December 2009 - 05:33 PM' timestamp='1259767987' post='48906'] I'd like to keep the 'outstanding service to MD' award from last year and dedicate it to last year's winner Calyx of Isis. [/quote] Excuse me... Calyx was not in MD this year ..so this i found out of date. Not that the paper is on date..considering last release and the months between them...

About someone else giving a go on the spell docs and try to make new ones or alternatives ..before you all start crying, start looking where it is open to all of you to try : http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/3971-spell-document-quest/page__view__findpost__p__31796 After you all finish the rant maybe you also start to make something and put some more interest in what it is in the PRESENT developing . Also the enchanted poems is part of the spell docs..development status : paused because you all like to rant and complain then do something.

If we look back, because of the old al that was written by someone else, Mur decided to close it and write it on his own. As he has more things to do it needed to be put on pause. AL it is not something to fill with 'tales' especially fantasy ones from papers; I am here for a long long time and i saw how real AL is written and how things happen to be in an order, how an end of a story is the beginning of an other, regardless of how long it takes or if there is something planed or not. Things in the AL (beside the story written by archis) are simply happening and follow an unwritten order that not even the writer or the character inside is constient of some times. We can all have our tales , separately from the AL , that's why we have the papers .. to fill them with tales that might complete our character and that's why i think that we should keep this thin line between paper stories and AL ones. As you saw, the paper stories come to a disaster to the AL and what it was supposed to be. I say that AL will continue when it will be time for it. Believe it or not, things happen at their time, even in MD, i have been witness to that. AL is not something to fill with stories, but something that looks it's own story line, so ..when nothing is happening it is not a panic moment that needs to be filled with tales, but a simple break, that maybe prepares it's public for a new exiting story.

If so many people are angry and think he should get some kind of punishment, make a list of the very very bad things he done and a poll of what he should get as a punishment. Maybe that will mean something ... i am just saying.

Dear Fenrir, I am not demanding things out of anger, I am simply sick of your spam posts that block the essentials from topics..important ones. ANd it is not only me..most of us are. Now, you can rant and entertain yourself , close the pc and go to sleep without learning anything, and be simply a spammer. MD is different and more the a game, from it you learn , maybe it would be time for you to start learning when to stop and how to read, as i see that you know how to entertain yourself... Considering that MD is like a baby for my husband and that it became soemthing very important in our life...yes, i can say it is a life, a life of more then 4 years . So, when i go to sleep i have what to think off and i might had to learn something in that day, be it painful or with joy, i might get a smile from a post/rp or be very mad because of you..so i LIVE among others the MD life ... but don't joke with that because you might insult the community that plays this game for a long long time and thinks of it and s'hes player as a secound life character... PS: in our life we always get the frustrated people that mess with us and nothing is good for them

I am sad that we are entertainers for you. I have no more words to say..it is simple a insult to our efforts to try and actually explain to you and give an answer to your doubts.

your warnings are from different mods and admin. I am not targeting you, you put yourself in the target by screaming out loud that we dont understand spam, and we have a wrong theory and your's is good : meaning offtopics are ok, excuse me, i am the admin and you are the user; if the mods warned you i belive them and the print screens they put in there, not you the off-topic adept. If you think you would have a problem with abstain yourself form posting spam, you should make something, but stop this non-sens and rantings about it. [u]Get over it ! [/u]

The forum is not a 'game chat'..well , only the spammers would say it is [quote]We talk about a subject, and sometimes it goes off topic. [/quote] Wrong! spam means offtopic, that's why there are mods and admins to scream at you to stay ON topic. [quote]Punish those who are actually posting useless crap/ off topic posts. Not those who go off topic occasionally, because Akasha, you would get punished as well [/quote] That is exactly what i am doing now..punishing those that get offtopic and you are one of them..considering your warning status you will get the 'preview by mods' thingy. Occasionally is something..but when you spam constantly and you can't stop..we must stop it. [quote]I forgot to add that most posts made by anyone are off topic according to you.[/quote] Yes, most of DB's posts are offtopic.

I know you are scared of getting a reset , you would like it now, or later after few more posts? Please look at your warnings...from today they start to mean something to a mod/admin and you could actually get a bad thing from them.

Moderator preview..well he made 7 posts in 5 minutes.. so yeah, a moderator will approve or disapprove his posts. Unfortunately he can't understand when to stop , and i personally had enough of the spam from the forum, that's why i started to take actions. Think that more the half of his posts are spam...and look at his warning and such..if he can't stop, we must stop him..i personally want to read a topic without posts wich are put in there just to increase the post counts. The free of speech ...well he was free to post *cough* spam 658 posts ..so , i started to cook the spammers from this forums.

Well, DB got another warn and a moderator preview posts. So.. who is next?
