hello People,
perhaps a view have noticed that I haven't really been around for a long time now, and want to make it a bit more official now. Not sure when i'm going to return, it's just that I have so less time, and so much to do.
I hope to return here with the full community and growing, but I fear otherwise.
To you all, you made me experience something unbelieveable. and allas, let us not yet part with this feeling:) -
Perhaps a seperated list for the gold and silver? that way you can keep track of both, but mur woulden't have to change the whole concept of the coins.
-
More time, and we will even have less fighting to do in MD, not a good oppertunity. Now only alliance members have that, so there is a small percentage of players which you can't attack so often, that's acceptable.

I join the queue:)

Okay, let's look at this again.
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.

Not that I disagree with your point, but something decided on someones skill is not discrimination. Some people so seek the fittest, as you say, it wouuld be discrimination if you exclude someone for something that has nothing to do with it.(for example being from another land in MD) -
Some of these are indeed strange, you can recieve wp's for mentoring?

I think with creatures stealing stuf is mostly pretty obvious, people can handle that themself(mostly) and others we indeed help how to work with it, what to gather as information and how to bring it.
more interesting cases should be like wp quest rewardings to friends, fights between players and harassement and role play - 'sex,. those problems have no exact borders and are harder to get evidence, that's where help is most required. -
I think tokens should become more rare. Completly tokened creatures (exspecially drachorn's) have became face roll creatures, no matter what you do, you win anyway.
I feel like making the tokens more rare, let's say that all sort of creatures have a certain amount of tokens they can have, like 2 or 3, which should not be acuired easily. It now costs only md credits, let it cost huge amount of vitality, honour, silver or age.
let's say that you can buy a token only one every 20 days, this reduces the amount of tokens hugely, and if tokens also grow stronger over time, so let's say a good token gains his full potential only afther 100 days. this way someone with tokens is stronger, but takes longer and will be less tokenend.
ps: therefor I still think the power of tokens should be reduced, but that's an almost impossible unfair proces for everyone who bought tokens so far..
oowh: en there should be abilities that neglect tokens, creature or tokens, so that it does not always mean that the tokened side wins -
whauw, happy birthday!
Shoulden't be suprised, even mur's gain age so now an then:P -

I understand that is the case though actual firms can only work as a team in my regulations when a case is taken and more than one person is approached with each side they actually are working then as two completely independent councilperson. They cant speak or consult each other until the verdict is approached and posted. Now lets say they where working together in order to fix the final verdict in favor of one person. This I cant have and I understand that now that you bring that up it has occurred to me thanks by the way. This reflects badly on me as currently being the spokes person as it seems now at least. I am required to defend that. This is why I am going to apply a new rule to the what ever you want to call it for now until we get a name. In the case that this happens I will first deal with it as a internal affair basically we reach a verdict within the (what ever it is) even I can be convicted with the villainy. We have three now so this works. The neutral councilor acts as the judge and the proceedings go similar to murs. In such a case that somebody is convicted or both are then the name or names will be posted publicly and to what case. The losing side at least I think the losing side can then sue that person for repertions for there loses. I will not be defending these people and if I am found of such I request not to be defended. Its just that so many people want to take part I want people to have an equal right to a lawyer no matter what the crime.
I will always post who we are representing so people if they feel turned off by such can contact a different party in this case of what I know of that is only Grido.
Saw it my self and I find it somewhat disturbing. I make neutral thoughts only in the case that im not representing anybody at least at the moment. To find a compromise I agree with but in court it is not compromise it is finding who is guilty. The only compromise is the sentence. Since you are half way there I do have to give you credit. You enter but as a consultant not a lawyer until you can show me you have straitened that kink out. You cant take cases but in the case that the evidence is against someone one of our lawyers can come to you if they are stuck to find a way to supply information to maybe reduce the sentence.
You can choose to take or leave it I hope you understand.

I have never seen court as a discussion group. What is there to be discuss about if someone stole or did not steal something? Evidence offcourse is the main priority, but also what the evidence do and do not prove. I still think that their should be neutrality, but that should be the outcome.
The guilty one will have to be punished, but more importantly is that he learns what his mistake was(in higher cases as thiefery) and accepts his fault. Court should not be for punishment mainly, but for justice, and to learn people the right ways, and keep them of of 'bad habits. The punishment should stay in order to three things:
keep the community from harm, if someone is a reported and repeted spammer their should be taken other actions than just temporary bans, the community should be helped against such people.
revenge and teaching, as the old saying, an eye for an eye. They should always have to lose more than their victims.(and victim's should not have to lose anything!)
and rehibatization: make people fit again to go back into the community, this is the most hard one. because someone will have to learn what they've mistaken and will have to learn otherwise.
In discussions, I'd rather lose and find the right ways than be headstrong. In court I wish to defend the rights of my client to the utters, (even if he is guilty). They mostly are not guilty of everything and their are mostly 'reasons,. -
I pop 1,1 please:)

There should be a solution to the 'no winner part, about this game.
Everyone enters the game by sending you a silver, and sending you a message, the first one to send you a message recieved the number 1, the second number 2, and so on. when using the random number generator you only enter the numbers for how many people attend. This way there will always be a winner, more chance of winning and more people attending.. -
none has won the discussion. Discussion is not about 'winning, but about sharing toughts and learn what other people think about it, or to get a compromise between two parties.

Point clear, and indeed I expect no one to 'hire, me without knowing of my credibility.
I am most certain neutral, I cna shut down all personal feelings about a case, for what must be one of the main skills of a lawyer. I know the rules of md and know how to follow them(never broke one either, and I see that as a requested personal part)
All I will never do is accept cases of good friends, that would only mix up the conclussions around for what people think about it.
Well, I can tell all sorts of thinks about myself, but I guess that taking a trail shows more about what I actually can, because I could tell everything that you wish to hear, but if I actually posses those skills will remain unknown.
I will follow cases from now, and if one of the lawyers likes I would like to help with some of the cases to learn, and to show that I posses the skills for a lawyer. -

If he [b]role played[/b] the theft then yes, you are correct that a role play punishment is in order.
However, the item(which performs a tangible effect) was actaully taken(once again, an action that affects the player account), how can a mere role play(an action that does not alter the account through game mechanics) punishment be suitable?
[b]I just mean, people keep on saying: he is a theft as roel play, so there is no reason to be mad, you could have known. well, our ways are also to get him punished( love to have the court here finally!). these give punishment, which have also effect in MD, that means that they fit in in the role playing of md. So I don't see the problem of punishing or not, he should always:)(even if it was his role). that's what I meant[/b]
It looks to me like you are saying that the discussion up until this message was done on the forum, is this the case? The rules clearly state that the forum is not for role play.

Being a villain has tangible consequences on the victim, whereas the victim has no way to inflict a counter attack (yet)
So this "villainy" only takes place because you can't be punished for it?
There is a glaring difference between roleplaying theft and actual stealing when the victim can't react appropriatly, and where the actual punishment that can be meted out, outweighs the severity of the crime. I am certain you are aware of the implications of your actions.

I don't really see the problem, if he is a role play thief.., than act as if the punishment is for roel play to! I mean, criminals get punished everywhere.., so why not in md? -

A gold coin for anyone who can find me within an hour ^^
*leave msg in chatbox there;)* -
All this topic can do is making sure mur knows there is a problem he has to fix.., and frankly enough I think he already knows..
Give him time, this is a hard problem, just as a few others, give him time to fix it and quit bugging him ..
[color="#4169E1"]And your post is just spam.
Yes, Mur knows about the issue since few of us pointed it out long time ago.
I personally bug him a lot about it.
The point of this topic is also to brainstorm and find ideas about stuff not merely point out a problem.
Or at least this is how I see it. So, please stay on topic.

I really don't get why so many people react to this(myself included)
Stop whining and start over if it is that all important for you, play the game like you wish. it was not ment to be like this, but since you CAN you may. And if other people don't help you with it than they don't have to, they can even go ruine your so called 'uber, mp3 if they want to, if that's how they wish to play the game...
Just start over if you feel like missing something.. -
I find MD a bit boring lately, but that is all because of myself. The game is as much fun as you put in yoursel,f if you don't really play, than it is no fun,. you have to put in new energy, new toughts and new things and ways to keep it intresting, Can whait a long time if you wish for someone else to do it for you.
And GGG is unlikely to dissapear. trough three main reasons:
- it almost the only place (except for sanctuaries) to find people without being ripped, almost the most sociable place in whole md.
- people will always want easy wins and being better the easy way, as chewett already said. Close GGG, and people will find eachother elsewhere and restart a new form of easy grinding.
- And this perhaps is the most important part, it's because they are letten be. I mean, is there actually a punishment for NOT following the rules in GGG? Everyone agreed, that's right. but if you do not agree, why bother ?f you should just attack everyone a few weeks in a row and make it impossible to actually .., well do the GGG thing and if you keep harassing such places it will vanish. -
MD is most certainly alive, rather call it a 'dip, of active players. and I agree with jester, at this state, only mur could bring change to this.
But was that not the whole problem? we rely to much on Mur, bringin pressure,
We should act on ourself intead of turning all our faces towards Mur and accept the impossible.

if you start reading all the lore there is just one thing i can say, don't take it to easily as the truth, seek further for their meaning and their concept. that way you will find your way to any of the other writer's guild.
