Bah, seconded. Actually, please, everyone. Let this post be the last and don't post anything else here. Let it die. Please.

Some of the ones worth mentioning: 1. Hanging on Golemus when the mp2s started spawning there 2. BEcoming chief LHO succeeding Jonn 3. Becoming vice leader of GG 4. Savelites takeover 5. The GG convo with yrth

Hmm.. forgot about the angien's shrine, only got the tribunals gates on my mind =b But yeah, making entrance into angien's shrine harder is actually quite good.

Or you could use stuff to increase your AP... Getting AP above max is not really that hard. Although, I do agree that probably those areas should get lowered to 90AP requirements.

Happy b'day! =) PS: chew, now you start to sound like MRG O_o

9 credits? I think you're mistaking it for the BP..

Well.. before this goes (probably) way off topic... let's get things straight. What are we discussing here? WP distribution, or WP codes distribution? I get the feeling that it's WP distribution (via 'restricted' quests) that is what the topic is about (CMIIW, shadow). Things seems to start to be mixed up on the codes and on the WPs themselves here, and sometimes I can't tell what people are actually talking about, because I see them often referred to as if they were the same.

Am I getting this all wrong? I thought the power given to kings are to decide for themselves how to distribute their WP [b]codes[/b], not the WP itself. If that is indeed what Mur wants, then so be it, though I really think it's a really big setback on MD if kings are allowed to distribute WPs however they wish. What I believe is that kings/lands own, and was given, WP [b]codes[/b] as their treasury, and it is up to them how to use it to increase the welfare of their citizens. I never considered WP themselves as property owned by lands/kings/whatever.

Well, that's exactly my point =) Skill difference is not discrimination. Deciding based on ethnicity (or, in MD word, land affiliation), is.

Well, bye Laz.. =\

Maybe a separate chat function for LHOs, so newbies can actually chat directly instead of using PMs? The Chat function can connect to all LHOs, so it will really be real time help. And to prevent abuse, the chat function should stay only to players below, say, 30 days?

[quote name='phantasm' date='14 March 2010 - 05:48 AM' timestamp='1268520495' post='56366'] i stand in defense of mine. I indeed gave a WP for a non quest reason to McVitie. Aelis did a wonderful thing with the secret reigndrach drawing. Unfortunately many people did not participate. So as a push for it, along with what I thought a wonderful gift, I gave her the WP. I was given a very wonderful present myself from Mur on Christmas, so I consider this no less a good gesture, to someone i really often can't stand in rp form. Not only is it the ONLY WP not given for quests I create, but I would do it again in the spirit of the festival of Christmas, one of the most powerful and grand times of the year for many of us. [/quote] No offense, but I have to disagree strongly here. WPs are [u]rewards[/u], not stuff to be given as [u]gifts[/u]. It never was, and I hope it never would be. One thing that separates WP from all other stuff in MD is that it has to be earned, not just distributed for random reasons.

Okay, let's look at this again. The one that is supposed to be kept within the land only is the [i]codes[/i], which is totally fine. But to have the [i]WP[/i] itself be confined to a land only? That's discrimination, and while it might not be the king's purpose, it will end up being a path to stocking their citizens up with WP rather unfairly. I really don't mind if the King's own quest (a.k.a. their [u]personal[/u] quest) be for the citizen only, after all, with RPCs there were also some kind of restrictions at times, and Kingship is undeniably a role, so I guess it'll be okay for kings to make land only quests. But, what about other people? The WP codes should be given only to quest [u]creators [/u]of that land, but the WPs themselves should not! I don't see anywhere in the announcement that the WPs themselves should be confined to a certain land. Talking about discrimination? Let's use a simple real world example. Suppose you want to get a job, of course there will be discrimination based on your [u]skills[/u]; those who have the skills more suitable for the job will undeniably get an advantage and be more likely to get hired. That's no discrimination: that's the law of nature, [u]survival of the fittest[/u] (in that field). But when you are excluding people for their ethnicity, for example, that is [u]discrimination[/u]. And an unjust one I must add. I really don't mind if kings set up their own quest for their people, or if you don't have the time, commission another person to make one for you (but limit to 1 quest per say, 2 months, or else you'll just be "commissioning" every quest maker in your land and all quests will end up restricted to your land anyways). But really, I don't want to start seeing "regular" people making quests that are bound to a land only, or sponsors (be it kings or other WP sponsors) give advantage to people from a certain land. Keep the [u]codes[/u] inside your land. Not the WP itself.

My memory's rather blurry (well, it's been a long time..), but I witnessed GotR, Savelites and CoE since their birth. I'm not sure how much I can contribute, but I'll be glad to help if needed.

[quote name='Chewett' date='12 March 2010 - 12:57 AM' timestamp='1268330245' post='56228'] I would close this because of its offtopic nature, But i guess that would mean im "pro" dst and trying to remove all traces of her being a nasty person, So i would only close this if a lot of people think that it can be closed And if you really want to open a new one later, Then thats great, Because MD needs a lot of hating *sarcasm* [/quote] I vote close, then. We have enough rants as it is right now. And people wonder why MD became so-called 'boring'..

Happy birthday Karak! =)

On ancient lore: there's actually still bits of ancient lore that still "exists". The AL is truth. And AL has things like the dagger that killed Marind, so the bit of lore about Marind and the fact that she was murdered is debatable to exist. And that might mean that her acquintances like Jack and Gabriel did exist as well.. In one way or another, the ancient lore has taken deep roots on the game, and was (is?) once a big part of the game that it is impossible to really erase it without changing the "real history", as our real history was much influenced by the ancient lore.

Happy birthday A! =)

[quote name='dst' date='08 March 2010 - 04:25 AM' timestamp='1267997111' post='55961'] What about it, if I may ask? Or do you pick on it just cause I had the bad inspiration to call it Dojo and make it public? If that's the reason, no problem. I can change that a lot. [/quote] Noo... Leave it as is dst! xD

Oh yeah xD

Um, as far as "until everyone who knows the password is gone", you could always just put the password on the clickables itself, something like "type 'read' to view the book's content".

Happy Birthday Mur! *calls some dancing pimped grasans*
