I have to agree with your overall points Eon, in that Skilldamage is good.

However, I think what Chewett may have been implying is that "it's a good thing" is a rather broad statement.
It could potentially (if I'm being mean and creative) be read as:
Mur thinks skilldamage is good for some folks to have and use the way they do.
Mur thinks driving people into sanctuaries is a good thing.
Mur thinks people complaining about Eon/Skilldamage and reducing their playtime is good.

Note, I'm not claiming Mur said these things. I'm pointing out that there are a lot of things that a sneaky lawyer-type might be able to claim in such an open phrase, and I know there's some folks who hold a grudge aginst you or skilldamage in general. I'd hate to see a valid argument broken down into flame wars over a technicality.

As FireStarter says, I don't mind the stat damage. Grab two friends and it's recovered pretty darn quickly, after all.
The general suggestino of a pseudo-sanctuary? I would vote that down pretty strongly, but was an interesting suggestion to propose.

You want an area where people can mindlessly combo grind their brains out while in near absolute safety. Yeah, I don't see that happening. Mur gave skilldamage as a reward for a reason. Mur also thinks what I do with my skilldamage is a good thing. If you want to train without fear of my skilldamage, do what another group is currently doing. Hide from me in the labyrinth. What? You miss out on social interaction with other members of MD? Too bad, hide and train, or be social, it's your decision.

Yet again, another thread that will give false hope to the weak, lazy and stupid population of MD.

can anyone explain wut exactly did he said wrong in here? except backset modding, i personally dunt see anythin wrong with his reply, nor it being rude >_>

Emerald Arcanix and I have worked out a deal regarding the return of the Knights of the Bell, wherein I will remain in the alliance offering my assistance where I can. I would ask that any concerned parties regarding this action speak with me by tomorrow, as I will be inviting Clock back into the alliance then.

I would like to, at this time, note that Rhaegar has been less than facilitating in these negotiations and were it not for the willingness to cooperate, in spite of the situation, that I have seen and heard from all other Marind Bell citizens, especially Emerald, this deal would likely not have happened at all. I congratulate Marind Bell in its capacity to deal with this, and hope for a better future.

maybe because he steals alliances, laughs at the people, and then makes them beg for it back? Then acts all high and mighty like he did them a favor for taking the alliance

I would like to submit my name as well, although I am not easily directly reachable, I am always reachable immediately via Orvid, who's always at the GOE. (yes, I'll 'borrow' his keyboard for a while if need be )

Name: I am Bored
ID: 38621
AD: 1231

I also have the free time to be able to fulfill the requirements quite easily.

Name: Eagle Eye

Seigheart (ID:18214)

I think it would suit my role as Treasure Keeper, handling the gold avys.

I'd like to apply also. I've looked a lot at the avatars, though I usually don't trade them myself (mostly I've helped others with them). I watch my messages very closely and am moderately active.

I really enjoyed the challenge, especially how it became more and more difficult to go forward. Luckily I reached Liberty. However, I understand that those who got to Liberty were rewarded morphs and other prizes. I have yet to receive an award. (I have spoken to Awiiya and he says he also was not rewarded, though he added that he doesn't care much for such things).

Edit: Oh, and I did contact Mur about this when I first realized it, but his only reply before going missing again was a bit cryptic: "[color=#000000]umm,, u still outside now?".[/color]

I am happy to see that most of the players have come to their senses: skill damage is what it is and should not be removed because "MD is losing players because of it". During the years I have heared this line from lots of players and for lots of reasons (hell! even I was accused I drive players off) but the common ground was pure selfishness. Let's be honest: 98% of the MD players don't care about others or the game. They only see their own interest. In your case, Spartiatis, Eon's skill damage is "preventing" you from fighting the way you want (amount, frequency, etc).

You have the tools, you have the numbers, you should be fine without removing something that was GAINED FAIR and SQUARE.

Or maybe just organize a little quiz - forum ban for 1 week of people, who are complaining about something, that obviously they don't understand.

If answered correctly to few questions, then the ban could be raised. If not - then another week.

I know how this sounds, but haven't your parents ever punished you one way or another, when we did something wrong, either if we didn't understood it fully or just acted prematurely?

As is stated somewhere:
[i]“Ignorantia legis neminem excusat”[/i] - "[b]Ignorance of the law excuses no one[/b]"

Chewett, we appreciate all the things you do, please don't take hasty actions.

You, Boss Wookie, are an amazing leader and hard worker, and anyone who has complaints of, due to, or about you, should promptly shove their complaint up their keister D:<

Today, I am going to log out, forever.
Aka, I’m leaving MD

I have been here for a while, and I have the feeling it’s been enough.
5 years is quite an accomplishment I think, And I feel good about it.
I have learned a lot here, but that time is past now.
I need my time for college now, and art, and other important things out there in the world.
I’m working to get myself away from the computer more, and go out into nature. Do things that matter, you know



For those who are interested; I have hidden all my items, alla cross the realm
Search them if you want to
It's the last quest I'm making, enjoy it



(ps; you can still find me on YM or Skype, you should find them on my profile)

first off, assuming you know Pip at all is the first mistake... its Pip for crying out Mur o-o

secondly, i get what hes saying, most people that "just want to know what happened" really "just want more ammo to shoot Pip with". so i dont disagree with him taking the fifth on this one o-o

and last but not least, honestly Mag, he doesnt NEED to tell ANYONE what hes up to, if hes up to anything. he did what he did for whatever reason. hell do what he will for whatever reason. hes under no law that states he must explain himself to anyone.

hell for all i know Pip could have just taken the alliance, shoved it promptly up his keister, and not answered pms or forum messages for half a year if he REALLY wanted to screw with people o_O

*pinches the bridge of his nose and sighs*

all im sayin is, maybe youll get to know him by NOT trying to get to know him. maybe the truth will come when you no longer seek it.

as far as i cant ell, Pip is like a Philosophers Stone. just leave him be. if hes REALLY doing this out of boredom as it seems you assume, then hell, maybe he'll tell you the whole story out of boredom someday too >.>

Ok, it's pointless to discuss this anymore since you keep continuing to argue that you were just "following instructions" and "'I haven't had time to participate in the quest.'" which is clearly OOC and missleading.

There is NOWHERE stated that I had to bring proof. You have NEVER asked for proofs. You simlpy states the above.

phantasm found a way to get his revenge over me not helping him get back SoS from Eon. No problem. I can live with that especially since he now showed his true face.
You accuse meof being biased and vengecefull. Take a look on the mirror and then start talking. So far it's 1-0 for me since my case had good enogh proofs to catch the Council's attention while you all failed to bring anything else but yaps and excuses.

I see nowhere where you stated HOW the quest should have been solved. You only said: find the grail. And I did but because I did it way too fast for you and because I didn't do it the way YOU wanted you of course found a way not to declare me the winner.
As for my proofs, I will not show them to you or anyone else. I have sent them to the right persons. If they decide to make them public, so be it but for the time being I will not humor you. Eat your heart out.
