Next time you activate a burst, go into a sanctuary and refresh to make sure your timer has time on it, then activate it (or use free credits, which would be easier, I guess), then refresh again and check your VE, VP and AP. If they are not going over max and your timer is consistent with what it was before, then you've got a bug of some sort.

I know that lots of sites have audio captchas that go along with the visual ones... Edit: Perhaps just have a check for actual activity? For example, check if x has logged in every day for the last month. If yes, check if x has moved much in the last month. If no, alert Mur.

Sometimes the timer is messed up, for me at least. It'll be at like 8 minutes, then I refresh and it's at 15 minutes. Perhaps you're just having bad timer luck? Also, what about AP and VP? Do those go over the max or are they the same?

Gaia has less attack than a level 1 Joker, so since random damage is the only ability that uses the attack stat in those, perhaps you should raise it a bit? [quote name='Help pages']Random Damage Does random damage to target based on attack value, usualy attack value is huge for these creatures, making this ability often act as acritical strike. Rare ability.[/quote] Aside from that and other things that have been mentioned, it looks like a great creature.

You're talking about two seperate things: The issues brought up in my earlier post, and then citizenship for most of your supposed reply. I will deal with these two things seperately, even though you seem to think they fit perfectly together. Your reply to me: Firstly, simply because you were once a leader, that does not give you the knowledge and understanding of how it all works. Not to mention, of course, that your statement that "some form of structure" hurts alliances is the complete opposite of what Firs is trying to make the Woodcutters do! By forcing them to get into a certain structure, they could well make a hasty decision and do exactly what you're describing, yet you still back this up! Lesson learned, you say? Think again. Secondly, what does it matter if they get organized before or after the actual guild is formed? Ever heard of a grace period? Do these sort of things not exist in your mind? Now, as for the rest of your post: You start by saying that there could be another "Savel situation". The "Savel situation" you're referring to was caused by months of tension and negativity between two people, and then finally one small thing happened that blew up, and Princ ended up in jail. Now, comparing it to this issue, the Woodcutters had existed for all of one day, and I'm assuming that Firs has had little or no past interaction with most of the members. How could another "Savel situation" happen unless one party was immediately rude and disrespectful to the other party? After that, you say that you know from experience that just throwing a guild into another land can cause a big issue. How can you know from experience? You've never made or moved a guild, that's what Mur does. As for your next paragraph, it pertains to RL, and not MD, so why would it apply? Mur makes the rules in MD. And then your last two paragraphs, yes the guild is part of Loreroot, and that IS because of mechanics, but what isn't part of mechanics is the king himself, the human element, and really, I'm quite sure that if this had happened in Necrovion or Marind Bell first, this sort of thing wouldn't have happened, or at least would've been done in private.

So go do it in private, don't make this big deal about it, just get a couple of friends together and train! How hard is it? You don't need a specific location and rules and all that stuff!

No, Chaos Archers have 40 more attack than DA3's.

[quote name='Yrthilian' date='11 August 2010 - 08:28 AM' timestamp='1281536904' post='65769'] now a new feature is going to be spoiled by people sticking their nose in places they should not. The fact that this guild was just dumped in a land and no organisation was put in plave make this a very messy idea the fact that even some memeber of that new guild are posiable filled with player alts is also another matter. ... See now things are going to be made worse over a new feature that has just been released without organising some sort of proper setup. I really think this could have been done in a much better way. ... [/quote] Remember "Raising the shield against Cryxus"? The Caretakers had been formed in a similar way to this, except only one member was chosen. Phantasm had around a month before the events with Cryxus happened, if I remember correctly. Even though he had a structure, he had nothing going on, yet still people supported him, and he got the Caretakers back from Cryxus after it was taken over. The Woodcutters haven't even all met each other, and yet there are already demands for it to have a structure? It's unbelievable to see these things coming from two of the people who are supposed to be leaders! Do we not learn anything from the past? Or do we just ignore the things we'd rather not remember, even if they're important?

That Other Guy's idea, but with Zleip's suggestion instead of the sanctuary thing would be ideal for me personally, but if the briskness isn't enough then perhaps have a heat storage item that can be filled by members of one guild only and passed around (with a timer on it that returns it to the leader after so long).

The bug itself is quite bothersome, in any case. It happened while I was attacking Phoenix (because he had attacked me a moment before), and made about 100 heads disappear >>

There are ways to increase your active AP over the maximum, temporarily. Experiment, and you'll probably figure them out.

Yes, you can be punished for using a bug without reporting it. If you're worried about something similar happening to you, just ask around if something unusual happens.

Manda was punished for taking draches and giving them away, not going into the areas themselves.

[quote name='Rhaegar Targaryen' date='08 August 2010 - 04:23 AM' timestamp='1281263003' post='65403'] this is just my idea for the solution, not necessarily better... but thats why I want to discuss this with all of you so we can all develop a good system or upgrade the current one for the -next generation- ? [/quote] Not that I've been reading your whole posts, because I really don't have the patience at this time, but to me it looks like you're just repeating arguments (such as "MP5 is scary for newbs" and "SG doesn't work without staff"), which makes it quite difficult to discuss, does it not? Simply pointing it out. Now, as for my opinion on the matter, yes, SG would benefit from some moderation of some sort, for certain people if need be, but it doesn't need permanent staff, because TOTAL protection generally makes the newbs soft and weak. An attack without permission here or there doesn't really hurt in the long run, it's the people who persist in breaking the rules that are the problem. And no, I don't believe complete restructuring, as you've tried, is the best course of action. You've got to ease people into things. Sticking with the example of the SG, when SS took it over, he kept the same general concept (attack with permission only), but made small changes to the rules. In my experience, people don't enjoy radical change, and often oppose it.

[/quote] This is intentional, I believe. Notice that it seperates idle people: "Users online right now (x+y idle)"

That wish does smaller tags underneath the location name, such as the one at the Park that says "Sparring Grounds", I believe. But in my post, I am talking about [i]Grido's[/i] editing privileges (or rather, restrictions), not the ones that anybody has.

Just gonna take a wild guess or two; You can't edit the text within the windows that pop up such as shops or attack interface You can't edit what the arrows say after hovering over them for a second; "Tranquil Plains - (1Ap)" You can't edit the poems that appear when you enter a new location You can't edit location names You can't edit information that shows up when you click on someone's name such as VP and Vit etc. Just some guesses, not official in any way >>

[quote name='Chewett' date='02 August 2010 - 04:03 PM' timestamp='1280786633' post='64979'] as you said, you ran there because you saw an mp3 had mistakenly pasted the item. most friendly people would clear it, but you had to steal it... sadly it seems to be your nature, similar to asking for granos's crits. [/quote] a) If you'd like to read the announcements, and perhaps make a few assumptions, then you will discover that the account in question is an alt, not some newb MP3 who just got their first item. I know you're not discussing this fact, but on the off chance that you have come to a different conclusion, I thought I would attempt to enlighten you. b) Two seperate actions do not show the complete nature of a person. For one, it's quite reasonable to ASK for Granos' creatures, though perhaps he should've been a bit more private about it. Secondly, if I am reading apophys' post correctly, he seems to have believed that the code was posted intentionally, and then learned later that it was not.

In any case, after almost an hour (if not that or more) of arguing, I convinced Alyon to remove his alt from the MR Fraternity without resorting to having it kicked. PS: [quote name='Muratus del Mur' date='01 August 2010 - 10:52 AM' timestamp='1280681574' post='64913'] At this point, even if it bothers me, keeping alts online to get items when i give them out is not a crime since it is me that is giving the items and not you taking them. [/quote] Udgard did not give those items free. I believe that says enough.

Perhaps allow you to browse the whole gallery, but only possibly purchase the eight at a time? Personally, I like seeing the art, even though I'm quite sure I'll stick with my avatar(s)

As I've said, many times, for quite a while now, heads is a joke at MP5. It all really started with MP2, and then the maze solution was general knowledge so people started farming heads from aramors, and now that pretty much everybody's won at MP5, there's really no purpose to having the contest run (for MP5), other than to give out free stats and credits, because that's all it's become.

I believe that it's presently at the level of "Half"...though either halfway to full or halfway to empty would largely depend on whether you were filling the glass or emptying it, I think. PS: You can interpret this post however you'd like, literal or as some big metaphor for life, whatever...I'm not picky.
