I bid so low because I see no OTHER bids in the thread. I will bid more < untill some point of course> Once I get some competition. ) [/quote] you do relise he is not talking about MD credits? he is talking about real money, sent from a bank account or credit card, via paypal, to his bank account.

[quote name='Kafuuka' timestamp='1285018876' post='68758'] To the people I see posting PL entries like 'this player is a coward and knows only one ritual, that's not strategy.. he's always hiding blah blah blah': you sound like sore losers and don't get the definition of strategy. If it works, don't fix it. If you can't win, run/hide. Such is definitely strategy. People who post things like that on the other hand, either hope to look superior or to convince their target to change their ways. I'm certain it's ineffective. So who is failing at strategy now? [/quote] Are we being criticized for what we think? Wow i didnt know our personal opinions can be right/wrong... As poster of one of these said comments, i have no intention to try and "change" his ways. I have posted my reflection of said person. To my knowledge, he uses one ritual, again and again. So that would justify "he only knows one ritual". I personally see those logs as our "views" of said player, and if i believe he only knows one ritual, and is a coward (only kills his crits so he doesnt lose, only shouts about the battles he wins, forgets the battles he hasnt) then im going to post that. And if you want to call me a fool about that then please do, because it is my personal opinion. I would recommend you dont try to "assume" what people are trying to do, it only makes an ass out of you.

[quote name='Harion' timestamp='1285018385' post='68757'] all of my adepts quit when they hit the wall that is LR guardsperhaps if i told them how to beat the guards they wouldn't have quit...idkbut nowadays, beating the guards to get into LR isn't needed because of TCi got into LR as MP4 btwright from the get go i was using the correct rit but had the creature at too low of a levelit wasn't until i was told that not only is a correct rit required, but a correct rit with the correct crits having the right level(note: i wasn't told how or what to use, only that a crit properly leveled can defeat the guards)did i realized what i needed to dothe pop up tips (any rit can be defeated using the right rit) were misleading and contributed to me spending months trying to beat the guards instead of training the right critsi think if LR citizens have no problem letting ppl in LR, then perhaps we should just remove the guards at the gate and place them somewhere elsewhere their "valuable teaching lesson" won't be lostbut what do i know right?i just think that it's a natural progression of the game that once highly guarded secrets become open knowledge in timeyou can't keep a secret from spreading - you can't control itthere'll be a time in MD when access to all areas would be knownit's just inevitable, i thinkthat's the nature of the beasta secret once shared becomes a secret no longerthere will be ppl like me, who respects the rules of the "no spoilers" not because i want others to have the same hard time as i didbut because i want others to experience the magic of MD. the magic of MD isn't in fighting or leveling creaturesthe magic of MD is in the discovery, the journey, the struggle to gain knowledgeif i take that away from others, i am doing injustice to them. i am taking away from them the opportunity to experience the magic of MDi too hate spoilers. i've hated it ever since 6th sense was spoiled to me by some assbut how do you prevent others from spoiling things here in MD short of imposing draconian rules? [/quote] Well, thats the thing. You werent using the right ritual. To me it sounds like you had been told X crits, and because that was the "right" ritual, you assumed it would be ok. Right ritual doesnt mean creature types, it means the right combination of abilities, which as you know change as they level. [quote name='Harion' timestamp='1285029233' post='68769'] well, actually they all quit at mp3 with only one reaching mp4, and that one still unable to enter LRi find it frustrating that i recruit a lot of ppl into this gamebut they either get pirated or they quitoriginal referrers don't get something if they lose their adeptsthat's why i stopped posting my adept link long ago [/quote] so you are saying that all of them, confirmed to you that they left because of the LR guards? All my my adepts i recruited just couldnt understand the premise, and it didnt intrest them. They left at mp3 as they were not "suited" for the game. the LR guards are the least worry if someone has the right "oh i will try later when im stronger" mentality. MD is not meant to be complete in one day, hence the age requirements of creatures. It seems that if people cant do things, they just leave and if they have that mindset they would not like to play MD.

Thank you one and all, i had a very nice MD free day (until someone decided to ask for some forum work ) and yes if you were wondering, its all true, It was my birthday and i was 3 years old

[quote] [2010-04-22 02:29:51 - Alpha 9] Custom Item Images Uploading your own image for an item is now possible. [b]It needs to be transparent png,[/b] 80x80px size and under 20kb. You can change or add an image for a inventory item in your inventory detail page. Just click the inventory link on the side bar then the details link. These images will follow same approval process as the avatar images. It will take a while untill you will figure out how to export the images but once you do it will be easy. Adding or changing an item image can be done only by its current owner and costs 1 credit. - R [/quote] The issue is the text on the upload page [quote] Images must be 80x80 px,[b] png,[/b] alpha transparency, 8-bit, max 20kb Background should be transparent as in the sample image Download sample source file, edit with fireworks or photoshop, [b]export as transparent gif.[/b] [/quote] i feel the last section should be removed, as it says export as transparent gif

If you wish to complain, then perhaps you should talk to me or another mod? I dont read your forum status updates complaining that these havent been removed. Is two posts about something spam? personally i find spam to be more than just two posts, and since they are so sporadic, i hardly feel they are spam. Also if you looked you can see how much backsplash nad has got from these topics, i highly doubt another one will pop up, unless nad really wants to decimate his reputation fully.

[quote name='Sasha Lilias' timestamp='1284816281' post='68634'] This is the [u][b]second[/b][/u] topic made by nad just so that he may try and make himself look big and strong, when he is nothing but a small child that can only use 1-2 types of rituals. In my eyes you are pathetic, both as a character and in fighting skills. Why are these topics allowed? If someone were to create two seperate posts the mods would then combine them, usually, so why is one person allowed to create multiple, gloating, topics that is of no use to [u][b]anyone[/b][/u]? It is a waste of forum space. [/quote] No, this is the FIRST post, please do not revive topics and make yourself look foolish.

This is not a bug, I spoke with mur about it a while back. CLOSED

google.com Try it, its really useful

Nothing? you cant gain anymore action points, it will probably be removed from story sometime. Is there something else you wanted to ask?

[quote name='Kyphis the Bard' timestamp='1284333682' post='68305'] (haven't read the whole topic, since most of it is just repetition) [/quote] Funniest comment this month "I havent bothered to read the whole topic, but i know its all repetion". Oh the irony how, by not bothering to read the topic, can yourself end up repeating things. Just a few things you might have missed Kyphis Rheagar only wants mechanic based things, obviously so that there can be a clear and defined winner. But then i wonder if he wants a clear winnner, whats the point of his MVP idea, which is subjective? Since rheagar only wanted opinions if its a good idea im going to refrain from posting again, and wait for the kings to decide since none have made any opinion on it (lifeline probably will never if you expect him to read the forum, because he doesnt)

B) if you can present good answers to my cynical viewpoint, then your "idea" is likely to be a half decent one, responses like your previous one merely shows you are not actually trying to answer my points i am making, and therefore will mean you are not thinking about the issues that may occur. C) yeah, some people are too good, the issue is that most of the time its a pre-determined ranking, you already know who is some of the best players, and it doesnt take too much work to look at it and work out who is likely to win. Im not saying this is wrong, but some contests there is no point in entereing becaue you know the winners already. E) Who is saying they arnt already doing this? (not pointing the finger at anyone) but there have already been incidents where kings have been auccsed at giving out wishpoints freely to their people. So why not again? I) "Neutrals don't exist as a state," - im sure that you can work out that Ailith and Phantasm and relatively smart people and between them can organise some people from Tribunals. Unless you feel they are incapable of talking and making a descision? Even if you feel that, you merely have to tell them that they need to agree on something or they dont get a "team", Its not rocket science. H) i still disagree with your idea that you should gather people before telling them the definition of what will happen, i agree about the idea of the olypmics, but totally disgree with the current "fight" thing that you have put ahead. And i apolgise for thinking this would be ran by you, your initial post is very cloudy. If the current format is anythign akin to the Torch contest (same strong people abusing the system so the outcome is already known before the contest) then it will fail quite simply. It needs to be much rarer and much more intresting. When i go to check the forum and see the results, i should be intrested and not feel like TC "Oh what a surprise, X got some points from alt farming and abusing the system"

A) Heads contest, too much of something fun? its not fun anymore, and definately too much of it, however you have to get people to organise this. This is the difference from heads and it makes it even more annoying for those who have to do things each month. B) If your best argument is to attack someone who gives an opinion/problem then you have really gotten low. C) Did you participate in <insert name here> tournament? it involved no tokens, nor skills and dst still did VERY well, i dont see how you can limit something to make it fair for everyone when knowledge rules and those are already known. E) Vote fixing, Ever Watched Eurovision? The strange little countries win because their "borders" vote for them, UK never wins because no one likes us. Its not a contest F) ok then, but i thought you wanted something fun for all, G) If you are limiting people entereding then some lands will quickly run out of people, H) You cant say that questions about the format should be asked later, because you cant organise something going "it will be a festival, we should decide if you like it but i cant tell you the details until you agree whether you will like it because it will confuse things" I like the "idea" of having something like this. But i dont like how you are intending on implementing it, but when i have brought up my opinions you have decided that "Talking about rules will cause confusion, let's leave it for later". So because of the general flaws i feel that this will have, that you havent yet addressed, and since you feel talking about the rules will cause "confusion" i am very negative about what you are planning. And totally disagree with what you are saying.,

A) still too much, 2 or 3 times per year or people will lose intrest B) you will need that limitation to keep it from being boreing and pointless C) well... it can because you know who are the best fighters, they join a land they have won E) Show me a "objective council of voters" and i shall show you their bias F) pointless for non main land people

A) not once every month, it will become boreing quickly with the same people B) perhaps one competetent per alliance or something, non land people might want to compete C) fair? What a load of BS, it will never be fair, it will have enevitable results D) prizes? when something is likely to be pretty predetermined? Doublely pointless. E) how can you rate a MVP?

so your actual post is just about this one spell and not all of them?

[quote name='Jazira' timestamp='1284235662' post='68244'] You all want to know who or what we will worship? People. Not just one, but many. All the people we can think of that has helped greatly in the MD Community, those who are no longer around as well those still here: Grido, Jonn, Sage, Calyx, and others that I can list here but won't. As for the name of the Church, it will remain the same in honor of the one who gained a group of followers, people who wanted to help others in the MD community as he had helped them. [/quote] You seem to know these people very little, those 4 people would NOT like people to worship them (well grido might but he is egotistical ). Savalites shouldnt really be worshipping these guys, they should be doing good for others. You will merely upset more people by choosing certain people to "worship" and others that you wont. Forget worshipping people, keep your aim to savel and doing good for the community. Actually do stuff that will effect the community for the better, and not stuff that will just cause schism's

Naha, removing the logout button for a day is just utterly stupid. But sadly i feel that if such a day were to be implemented, people just wouldnt log i during that time

Ah, very sorry about that, must have missed it. I dont really understand your question, What is it you are asking about players titles that are set without having the required posts?

this is no bug, what you are proposing is changing something. have you any cold hard facts about changing any of the spells and such? or are you just asking the community to do the work for you?

blah blah, blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah Is it MD's new premise to have arguments on the same issues over and over again? This topic merely enforces that some of you dont like some others of you. But we already know this because you have complained here before. I am closing this topic. If you want to dicuss this i want a NICE topic, that isnt mainly about what firs/rheagar/insert as applicable did or didnt do for the savalites. I will be closing each and every one of these topics that degrade into pointless "finger pointing" have a nice day

Since several of you are going to continue to point this out i will just post it and not continually reply to it via pm. Initially the higest rank required 3000 posts, but by this time most people had customized their title so it would never show these ranks. Because of this i have reduced the ranks to something below the post requirement to choose your own rank. Im assuming that once they post they will be promoted, if not then you can pm me and i will do it manually for you.

If you had indeed heard the full story or talked to me about this then you would have realised by that late stage the rumour got to you it had already been dealt with. And if you actually talked with the person involved then you would have realised how pointless your post is. But now it merely propagates a false rumour. Please do not take decisions without knowing what actually happened. CLOSED

You gain a circle each time you "progress" a rank, starting initially with one.
