templates of rituals is a nono, there is a reason why you have to remake them, the creatures "forget" the rituals, so you have to teach them it again

if i had more than 3 mins till i had to sign off, i'd use the search function to find the other threads about this....*cough*

I kind of like the idea of a graphic interface, even if it doesn't affect gameplay. Rituals could be built by dragging and dropping creatures into certain slots and each ability and target could be given an icon for selection rather than a text dropbox. It would be a little more interactive and aesthetic.

aye i myself, while dozing in the temple was expelled to the GoE. That will teach me to fall asleep. Though booted out of my own land!! hehehe

It's not yours.

Did he just said : places a small cube in front of him


Intresting:)
[/quote]

Ya the cube has been the source of mystery though I do have a theory and this supports it. At the beginning of the story there is the wooden box. Small as it might be it turns out that you can fit in it. You likely see where I am going with this. I believe that inside this box exists the entire MD universe. If you have ever seen Futurerama the episode considering the machine that can create alternate universes contained inside boxes you know what I am talking about.

I just hope that mur takes good care of that box and doesn't feel inclined to shake it... too much .

oke, without reading all of this there are a few things I wish to say:

WHY FOR MY MOTHERS SAKE are all fenrir's post being voted negative? I mean, he might indeed be wrong, and he might indeed be seeing it all wrong. but that doesen't make it a bad reply, that is not the reason it is there for, it's for people who spamm, say bad things, harrass or so.., not just because you like someone less, and start voting negative on him. Same problem goes for me, a few people don't like me and they start voting negative.

and offcourse, I am not certain, but it very much looks like this is done by a few(3 at most or so) people who dislike him most.., and I am not pointing any fingers.

as for the reply that chewett made, these are indeed good points, power abuse is one of the most treacherous things that can be done and is not permitted, but on the other side: have you ever been warned about this? have they told you you where wrong on it and gave you advice on how to do what, and what not?

for me I most certainly believe that people who work together, as the moderators shoulden't let their fellow mod's down, but on this subject it looks like fenrir has been dropped, and for which reason I don't know. But I know chewett, and I guess it has been a good reason, with good prove. I just wish this to be publiced to now, since everyone is starting to discuss this now.

or is it possible that the moderator's, and fenrir open up a own location, start discussing until everything is clear for everyone, pur rational, no offending and no pointing fingers. as far as i am concered no one is wrong, just lacks the knowledge and the insight. it would do much more good than discuss it here, because all happens now it that you all( not concerned for myself:P) will get a bad name, and not in as 'he's bad, more other ways..


well, I hope I diden't offend anyone, tried to reply as rational as I can be, if any objections are made to what I said, or if I lack the insight, just tell me and I will rewrite it:)

[size="5"][u]Swords and Sheaths[/u][/b]
[/size]

We all know the current issues about swords and sheats and how they force weaker players to inactivity, while older players bash anything they can get a hold off 0-100...
I want to change that!

As long as you are out of balance, all rules apply just as they do now, with one exception: fights that end in round 0 are NOT counted as loss while you are unbalanced!
as long as you are in balance, [color="#FF0000"]ANY win counts for a victory, [/color]but sheat-rules stay as they are, forcing fighters to lose as well as win if they want to stay in balance and get something for fighting at all (don't forget, fighting out of balance gives you nothing, not even wins for saccing)



You might say 'Oh wonder, a fighter who wants his victims back' and you would be right, but there's more to it than that:

-Combat is what keeps people [u]active[/u], they don't stick around to wait for a new quest to start or because someone might drop by to RP with them, Battle is what makes you log on, search people, and start actions that might even have impact in RP
-Combat is what brings [u]money[/u] to the server, nobody buys tokens and rusts because they look fancy, but because they want to beat someone up with them!!

[/quote]
The only thing that I don't like is : [color="#FF0000"]ANY wins gives you a victory[/color].
Why ? Because it will unbalance the players in the other way more wins then loses.

The only good thing about "Any win = vic" will be that players will learn to make good "self losing rituals" (that means more knowledge on MD mechanics).
Consider that one good players wants to get balanced (from too many wins), what will he do ? I tell you : he will start GIVING wins.
So ... the current system for fighting is pretty good. If you want a victory ... it is easy to be taken.

Just about everyone and there mother is in an alliance Burns. If you really want this to work you would need to get rid of perma balance, or vets would not have to lose a battle to maintain balance.

Personally I say screw the heck out of honor. Completely get rid of honor. When you attack someone you get wins, exp and loyalty I suppose. (Though the loyalty system is screwy too.) People walking around who give you more than -100 honor are normally WAY stronger than you. Honor is supposed to be a reward from beating stronger opponents, so why is it that someone like Lifeline should be getting hundreds of bonus exp and 400 honor off of me? The honor system doesn't do what it's supposed to, trash it. Then who cares, fight whenever, everybody fight everybody. No stat damage, no hiding, no worries about win/loss (unless you want to be balanced, which you would). Really, deleting a broken system brings everybody back, and it shouldn't take THAT much coding to do.
[/quote]
"Screw the honor "? WHY ?
You all loved the new "achievements". Consider the honor as an "achievement" and / or a quest.
The real problem is the "skill damage" from the -1050 more loses. There ... you can change it to give not more but less stat damage (if not remove it altogether).

As much as i insisted with that creature stable, i actually like burns' idea. but i can't see how that will make players run out of sanctuaries...
[/quote]
question for you Aeoshattr: why aren't you idle all day long ?
and because you would say that you don't want to have too many wins/loses, I will say:
in a system where you are not punished (too bad) for staying all day idle, and you don't lose too much ... then ... people don't mind doing it.

Your idea would take a lot of coding and switching the game around, whereas my idea just involves me declaring war on you annoying pacifists.

Bump-

The highest I am willing to pay for a rustgold is 120 silver, and the lowest: 80-90 silver.
[/quote]

As if they will now sale for less then 120 if you offered it..

teoretically yes, cause ideally for her, there will be an auction

one will go: i wanna sell mine for 120!

other one: no wait, i'll give mine for less! 110!

... so on and so on



[/quote]


Than if that would be the case, there would be no point in appoiting a lowest offer, as if you would not buy it if it costs less...

Should have been: Direct buy at the price class inbetween 70-80.., for example.

I don't paticipate trough same reason as chewett does, no point. MB has no chance at all.

That's why people always have to be certain they can give what they offer. you owe him more than just a few tokens Fenrir, I am sorry but he missed a reindrach, he lost a lot of age and has been left with nothing..

if you truly are sorry for what you've done, and wish to apologies, contact him and work out the problem, but I am afraid that it will cost you dearly, it's now up to you to choose...

Many of the less respectable things I do I probably don't even realize I am doing. I am sorry.
2 things I can think of
-spamming (perpetual release of energy through the form of excessive talking)
-bad spelling/grammar (part of MY role)

I do not at all see how this is spam.

I do not mean forum reputation I mean in-game MD reputation.

[quote name='aaront222' date='01 February 2010 - 11:13 AM' timestamp='1265022824' post='53677']
So my in game reputation can be restored by unspamming..............Time to invent unspamming!(uh oh! that likely means logical RP)
[/quote]

as grido said, it wont restore your reputation, just not make it worse

To restore it you will need to do something good...

although that in itself wont repair your reputation, you then need to do things that are (essentially) opposite to being a spammer etc. Just removing the spam will still leave you with the rep, you need to do things to counterbalence it

Again, we misunderstood you.

Your ingame reputation is easily explained.

I have never spoke with you, but i have seen what you do, You spam peoples PL's with rubbish, So my opinion of you is that you are a stupid spammer,

Want to fix this? stop posting stupid PL comments and remove as many as you can.

Bad spelling and grammar will for the most part not get you bad rep, Unless it it totally non-understandable (otherise my rep would be bad as well)

the posts you make, are the the most part, rubbish. Next time you make a post, think, is this adding to the topic.

I was under the impression that unless specific to the thread/section, the forum is not for roleplay.

72 silver.

And there is nu such thing as an auction behind closed doors, so we will offer here:)
