Happy birthday

[quote name='aaront222' timestamp='1300825517' post='81103'] Coins are no longer obtainable via shop. This is because someone got alts and abused free credits to "farm silvers". Now the amount of coins in MD is essentially an exact and set amount. [/quote] ...no. Both gold and silver coins are still in the shop.

As I understand, advancing to MP6 is not the same as advancing to other MP levels. You do not go through story mode again.

It may be a bug, but it doesn't hurt anything. It will go back to normal when the creature loses that VE.

1. The names that appear in grey are people who have recently visited your location. You can PM those people in the normal way. You can also reply to old messages or get a friends list from the MDShop. 2. In your creature page, there is a referal link above your creatures, the CTC section is right near that, the link says "here"

Happy yesterday

The slime is not a creature as far as I know, but if it is, it's certainly not in the Road Slime's ritual.

Regardless of who you target, it should open the window. If it can't find that player, it will tell you that. Make sure you're using it correctly: <spell name> - <target> (example: Locate - Pipstickz) Also make sure you're using the right words and have enough heat and such.

[quote name='Chewett' timestamp='1300208958' post='80697'] You remember the box MD came out of? You think that will abide by traditional planetary systems? [/quote] But the box is on a planet or ground of some sort >>

Did I say that I spoke to you, or that you were happy with it? All I did was thank you.

If you don't like your ruler, you rebel, do you not? If you want to make your story/quest/event your way, then do it. Barring interference from the administrative body, nothing can stop you but yourself.

I'd like to thank Sharazhad, Mya and others who are organizing/participating in this story for making this change. It was not my intention to cause anyone trouble. Thanks guys.

Kafuuka, you're free to share your opinions as much as you want, but if you think they're that important, please open a new thread. Be so kind as to remove yourself from this one. Yrth: I'll try to explain it a bit, but excuse me if my words get a bit muddled, it's late. Yes, the Lore ban is just a technicality and doesn't really need to be payed any attention, but I feel it's an issue that should be dealt with, so someone doesn't pop up in the future and get all crazy with the "You can't say this" and "Mur doesn't like that". So yeah.

Then I guess the SoS's logo is guilty of being nude, 100% of the time. (Sorry, just had to)

I don't want a good "discussion", I want people to think. What's the best way to get ideas? Sharing. Now Kafuuka, if you're done I would appreciate it if you stopped posting here. If you're not done, I would still appreciate it.

[quote name='Kafuuka' timestamp='1299450673' post='80290'] My point mainly is that there already was a thread on that subject, which you read and contributed to with a fatalistic statement. The idea that you, a few months later, wish to persuade others to pursue an objective you didn't deem attainable back then, is ironic at best. On top of that you don't think all knowledge should be shared and never bothered to explain where to draw the line. How are we supposed to know what it is you suggest then? How exactly do you suggest these partially unspecified changes could be pursued? [/quote] Oh my, I contradicted myself, must mean I'm a terrible liar and all my goals are for my own personal gain. To answer you honestly; do opinions not change? It has been almost a half-year since then, what makes you think that I won't have gained new information myself? If you are confused as to what I am suggesting with this thread, I suggest you read it over again, others seem to have it right.

Alright then, sign me up an tell me what to do.

Chewett: I don't know. Why are we afraid to find out? Kafuuka: Yes, that's the way it is and that's what I'd like to change. What is your point?

Where's the fun in waiting for Mur?

I think Mur needs to "help" you people like he "helped" Darigan. Darigan was seeing things he shouldn't too, y'know.

Happy birthday. My present for you is to not squash any (more) tomatoes...just for today, though.

Chewett, Kyphis and Kafuuka: This isn't about finding "the one answer", or "the end of the game" (to me), it's about freedom of information. Sharing and enlightenment and all that. For example, Kelle'tha Order. The purpose of the alliance is to research and find answers I assume, based on their unhidden forums. Now, they started...how long ago? And how many people know more than they did because of them? What I'm saying is that we don't need them, if we all get together and share our own ideas. We don't need to be right, we just need to be.

So, as most everyone knows, Mur does not like "Lore", or stories that we write that use story mode characters or concepts or anything that may in any way seem official. At least, that's the definition I've come up with. Fighting and stats (and somewhat less so, creatures) are unlimited; that aspect of the game is open-ended and has no set goal. Lands, alliances, wars, quests and items are only limited by the community, which is in turn essentially unlimited; those aspects are open-ended as well. So what is the set, predefined goal for players to achieve? Around when I started, I assumed it was either to become influential (RPC's were the sort of kings of the time, just there was more of them, and they had better powers...imagine that. Then of course there was (most of the) non RPC people in the AL, less special but still in some cases better than current kings: PWR), or story mode would progress and I would find all the answers along the way. As it turns out, neither of those are the goal as I see it now. So what is this crazy thing that we're meant to achieve? I believe that we are meant to find the answers. In a similar fashion to our world long ago, we as the citizens of MD don't really know much. Questions like "How did we get here?", "What is Liquid Dust?" and infamous in it's own way: "What happened before us?" are like the "What makes the sun rise?" and "What's the world made of?" of MD. So how were those questions answered in our past? Through the cumulative efforts of many people over time. I can't help making the comparison, but Phoenyckz, or Ady, is sort of like our Galileo. He may not have been correct in his stories, but he tried, and now it's up to us to continue, there's only one thing in our way; the "ban" on Lore. Yeah, we certainly don't [b]need[/b] to know the history of the realm, or who laid the eggs that become Angiens, and those questions may not even HAVE answers, but the speculation itself can lead to other thoughts, other questions and other answers. Information in MD is all stifled away, perhaps stored in the Notebooks of some of the thinkers, but nobody wants to share. Why not? Maybe they're afraid of being wrong, maybe they're afraid of giving spoilers, maybe they don't want to get hit by the Lore barrier, whatever. Perhaps MD is meant to be a test of individual insight, and we're all supposed to do it on our own, but if Mur can "punish" a few of us by just giving the answers to everyone together, then everyone should be allowed to work toward the answers together, and without Mur, should we not? So, is it not time to do away with the restriction of information, even if it's just guesswork or good storytelling? I certainly say it is. So yeah, sorry for super long topic, but share opinions n' stuff, or just go find your answers, your theories.

But that would just essentially make it cost more for them to lose EXP. For example, if Ravenstrider sells 1 million EXP creatures for 1 silver, then it costs ~4 silver for an MP4 to go from cap to 1, but if it was halved, it would cost 8 silver. Would that not have a detrimental effect on their happiness and whatnot? Also, perhaps we should open a new topic >> I looked at the title after posting and I was like wait...did I change topics somehow?
